Mother’s Day Gift Headquarters… our handmade gifts are the perfect unique keepsake to show your love for Mom.

Support small business and know that you’re directly supporting Moms who run their business to help provide for their kids. It’s full circle!

Fun fact: The owner of Smartivities Showcase, April Khalil, travelled the East Coast with her Mom and family doing professional arts and crafts shows for 10 years before settling down in the Lehigh Valley. She grew up in her Moms business and saw first hand all the effort and sacrifice which still inspires her today!
