Know an African mom who reps her culture hard and is not ashamed for people to know about it? Does she love African dresses? Take a peek at a post I did on African dresses perfect for the warm weather, those would make great gifts.

Mothers Day Cards African American Illustrations

This is perhaps one of the favorite items I saved even for myself because many of us can relate to our moms requesting a card for their birthday, anniversary, and Christmas but especially on Mother’s Day.

For so many years, black mothers are often left out of the equation when it comes to greeting cards and other gift items personalized to them. Here are some mothers day cards with African American illustrations on them that will make your mom feel special and not to mention seen.

 

 

 

Happy Mothers Day Black Art Pieces

One thing we can all agree on is how much black moms love to decorate their homes with art pieces. It could be a print, painting, or even a sculpture. But what makes these mothers day gifts extra special is that they feature black women in all their glory.

I did some digging and chose to feature more modern wall art pieces that can easily be found on Etsy. If you are looking for last-minute mothers day gifts, these black art pieces can be a lifesaver because they are already printed and ready to be framed. And if you are feeling extra sentimental, you can always add a custom mothers day message to the back of the frame.

These gifts range from everyday items such as keychains to fun statement pieces like a leopard print robe or earrings And if you are looking to go all out, buy all of the items plus the socks I found on Etsy.

Raise your hand if your mom is notorious for asking for the things she needs at the moment. Take me for example, two years ago my mom asked for a set of towels and a new set of seasonings. All I had to do was purchase those items, and hand them to her to say, Happy Mother’s Day, black queen!
