Mother's Day gifts shaped like your family
Belgium celebrates Mother's Day on the second Sunday of May, except around Antwerp, where many families keep 15 August, Moederkesdag. Whishy's Mother's Day gift is the Mother & Children sculpture: a minimalist figure of a mother with one, two, three or four children, 3D-printed in Niel in the colour you choose, from €22.99. It is the piece that says exactly who she is a mother to.
If she would rather have something for the house, the Shizu and Sea Shell vases, the quilted makeup organiser and the Aura Luxe lamp are the pieces we send most in May. A photo frame with the children's names (€19.99) works for a mother of young kids.
Everything is printed in matte PLA and finished by hand. Order two weeks before the Sunday; it is one of our busiest periods.

When to order
Mother's Day in Belgium falls on the second Sunday of May; the Antwerp region also celebrates on 15 August. Sculptures take up to 10 business days to print and finish, plus 1 to 2 days for delivery in Belgium, so order two weeks before the date. Vases and organisers are similar; a photo frame or keychain is faster.
Mothers in the Netherlands celebrate on the same Sunday, in France on the last Sunday of May (or the first of June). We ship to all three, 2 to 5 business days.
