About this Product
? A sweet little heirloom in the making…?
?? For the mom who kept your macaroni art, this is the glow-up she deserves. This gilded oyster shell dish feels like something plucked from a vintage jewelry box—but with a wink and a nod to your modern-day appreciation.
? The centerpiece? Two cheerful birds perched on a flowering branch with the words: “With My Love to Mother on Mother’s Day.” Add in that luxe gold trim and you’ve got yourself a keepsake that hits all the right sentimental notes—without veering into cheesy territory.
? Crafted from a real oyster shell, each dish has its own perfectly imperfect shape—a natural canvas for vintage art with a modern twist. We leave the shell’s texture as-is, so every dish has its own character. No two are alike—and we like it that way. The gold leaf edge adds a little extra polish, because honoring Mom should come with a little shimmer.
.
✨ The bird illustration comes straight from a vintage mid-century greeting card, reproduced and preserved in each piece. That blend of nostalgia and handcrafted detail makes it feel like something you’d find tucked away in a keepsake drawer—now reimagined to shine on a vanity or dresser.
? Why it makes a great gift: Because your mom already has enough mugs. This one’s got heart, history, and some sparkle. Perfect on its own or tucked inside a Mother’s Day gift basket with flowers, a note, or her favorite piece of jewelry.
?Care Instructions: To maintain the beauty of your oyster shell dish, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or fully submerging the dish in water to ensure its longevity.
? Size:
Approximately 3" - 4" in length with a natural cup shape.

Meet the Maker
Retro-Inspired Goods with a Hint of Kitsch
Hi there! We’re Crafty Cousins Shoppe—a multi-generational maker crew creating vintage-inspired pieces with modern-day practicality. From embroidered tea towels to personalized totes, everything here is designed to bring a little charm and a whole lot of character into your everyday life.
Our roots run deep in family tradition. I was inspired by the holiday décor made by my grandmother and great-aunt—pieces that brought joy, color, and a sense of home. Now, I’m carrying that legacy forward, stitching nostalgia and purpose into every product with help from the next generation (shoutout to Raelynn, our 9-year-old creative consultant with big opinions and bigger dreams).
We believe the things you use every day should feel special. That’s why we focus on quality, personality, and a just-right dose of kitsch. These pieces aren’t just pretty—they’re made to be used, enjoyed, and maybe even passed down someday.
Thanks for stopping by! We’re proud to be part of a marketplace that supports makers and gives back.
How it’s Made
The image is printed on rice paper and decoupaged to the shell. The back of the shell and the edges are painted gold and the entire shell receives at least two coats of sealent.
