When someone we love is no longer with us, even the smallest symbol can feel like a lifeline. Something tangible. Something beautiful. Something that whispers in the silence, “I haven’t forgotten.”
That’s what we had in mind when we designed these special Mother’s Angels® ornaments — each one handcrafted in Texas and created to bring a little light into the hard moments of grief. Whether you’re looking for a way to honor a loved one yourself or you’re searching for unique memorial ornament gift ideas to comfort someone else, these designs were made to hold meaning.
This one has love written all over it (quite literally). The interlocking hearts feel like a gentle reminder that love doesn’t end just because someone’s no longer physically here. It’s a quiet symbol that your heart is forever interlocked with theirs — no matter the time or distance. It’s especially meaningful if you’re grieving more than one person — like both parents, a grandparent and a sibling, or even a close group of friends.
The daisy represents innocence, purity, and love — and it’s quietly powerful. We’ve had many customers choose this as a memorial ornament to honor a child, a dear friend, or a parent who always loved the simple things in life. It’s delicate, but its message is strong: you are remembered.
Butterflies symbolize transformation and the idea that those we’ve lost are still around us — just in another form. This design features two butterflies, which can represent two souls who have passed or the unbreakable bond between you and someone you’ve lost — your spirits forever linked. It’s for those who feel their loved one near in the breeze, the sunlight, or a song that comes on the radio. And the pop of purple? Vibrant and hopeful — a gentle celebration of life.
The name says it all. Forget-me-nots are often associated with remembrance, and this design is soft, sweet, and incredibly heartfelt. It makes a thoughtful sympathy gift, too — especially for someone who might not be ready to talk, but would treasure something they can hold onto.
A white dove is a universal symbol of peace and spiritual connection. This ornament is quiet and calming — ideal for anyone who finds comfort in faith, prayer, or simply a moment of stillness. It's one of our most meaningful designs for honoring a loved one’s legacy.
When we created the Mother’s Angels® collection, it wasn’t just about making pretty things. It was about creating something that feels personal — the kind of memorial ornament that catches the light just right and makes you pause and remember happy times. The kind that helps you breathe on the hard days.
Each one is designed by us (hi, I’m Jen!) and handcrafted right here in Texas. Each ornament is created using a 3-layered design of wood, MDF and acrylic. Whether you hang it in a sunny window or on your Christmas tree, it truly comes to life when the light hits it.
I know how hard it can be to find just the right thing — especially when it feels like nothing is ever “enough.” If you’re looking for more unique memorial ornament gift ideas, you can browse our full ornament collection right here. Whether it’s for yourself or someone who’s hurting, I hope you find something that speaks to your heart.
Grief is never easy. But remembering? That’s sacred.
And sometimes, a little angel helps make that remembering just a bit brighter.
If you're still not sure which Mother’s Angels® ornament feels right, we put together a Memorial Gift Guide to help. It includes some of our most meaningful designs, along with ideas for honoring one loved one or many. Whether you’re looking for something symbolic, spiritual, or deeply personal, we hope it helps you find a little light in the remembering.
