“Home resides in a mother’s heart.” We couldn’t agree more. With Mother’s Day on May 10, here are five beautiful homewares tested by Westcoast Homes for the mom who’s a dedicated cook or who simply appreciates style and comfort at home.
Le Creuset’s Whistling Kettle
There’s something about a statement kettle that turns the afternoon brew into a daily ritual worth savouring. A Le Creuset kettle is durable, easy to clean and pretty enough to leave on the stovetop permanently. With 11 colour options ranging from classic white to Le Creuset’s iconic Flame, there’s something for every kitchen colour palette. For any mom who loves a quality cuppa, it’s a gift that truly lasts. Price: $135
Wall Flowers: A Love Letter to Wallpaper
Wallpaper is back in a big way. In this gorgeous coffee-table book, designer and Chasing Paper founder, Elizabeth Rees, explores the history of wallpaper and chats with designers and artists about the craft of its creation, presented alongside inspiring images. We love how it peels back the layers on an age-old decorating method, revealing a fresh perspective. Perfect for the maximalist mom who embraces personal expression and bold design moves. Price: $63 on Amazon.ca
Maison Madison’s Giovanna Oval Platter
Martha Stewart approved: this handsome oval platter earned a spot on the queen of cuisine’s own Instagram. Handmade by artisans in Portugal, this solid, ceramic earthenware piece features a bold yellow scalloped rim that makes a springtime table setting feel special. Unlike flowers or chocolates, this is a gift that lasts, reminding mom of you every time she takes her treasured platter off the shelf. Price: $143
Pure Parima’s Floral Printed Sateen Duvet Cover
Modern Regencycore is having a moment. Soft florals and romantic prints are making their way from fashion runways into the bedroom. Pure Parima’s floral printed certified Egyptian cotton sateen duvet cover is a beautiful example. Available in two regency-inspired prints — lavender and vintage floral — the set includes a duvet cover and pillow slips with a noticeably luxurious feel. Designed for a soft landing at the end of every busy day. Price: On sale from $230
Paderno’s Vida Colour Series Coffee Machine
When the whole household runs on coffee, a reliable 14-cup machine is non-negotiable. Paderno’s Vida Colour Series can be programmed the night before, has auto shut off, a keep-warm function, and a pause-and-pour option for those in a rush. It comes in three stylish colours, Blufin, Shortbread and Matcha, making the java station as good-looking as it is hardworking. Price: $119.99 at Canadian Tire
