Pots of Joy: A Mother’s Day Gift that Grows with Love

This Earth Day, we’re celebrating more than the planet—we’re celebrating people. Mothers. Caregivers. The ones who pour love into the soil of our lives.

At Upward Together, our students have been creating gifts that do just that. Each clay pot is hand-painted with care, rooted in a feeling—hope, love, joy—and filled with a vibrant succulent to match.

No two pots are the same.
Just like no two moms are the same.

Each design is intentional, colorful, and bursting with youthful creativity. From sky-blue hues to warm oranges and heartfelt lettering, these pots aren’t just cute—they’re meaningful. We call them Pots of Joy, and they’re made to remind someone they’re loved, long after the holiday ends.

Why It Matters:

• Eco-Friendly Gift: Celebrate Earth Day and Mother’s Day with a sustainable, living gift.

• Handmade with Heart: Each pot is painted by a student, making every piece one-of-a-kind.

• Rooted in Emotion: Whether it’s “hope” or “love,” each pot carries a message worth growing.

Gifting Tip:

Pair one with a handwritten note. Water weekly. Watch both the succulent and the sentiment grow stronger with time.
