five Accessories is an online and brick and mortar purveyor of eco-friendly, socially conscious, fashionable handbags and jewelery. Their addition to my Mothers Day Gift event is inspiring as they donate to non-profits, purchase their goods for resale from countries that are impoverished and have created an income generating program for people in poverty in the Chicago area.
If your Mother is someone who cares about recycled materials, giving back to the community and being chic, five Accessories is the place to shop for her Mother’s Day gift. The name five Accessories comes from the Five countries their items come from: Bali, Hondurss, Cambodia, India and at need areas in the US.
five ACCESSORIES supports grassroots efforts around the globe to aid under-privileged children by donating FIVE DOLLARS of every handbag sold and 15 percent of all other sales to each artisan’s local cause.
You can find gift items for $3 – Recycled Bottle Top Barrette, $5 for a Flower Accessory, $10 for Wooden Bracelets and handbag prices depend on the style and size you choose. The Bamboo 1/2 Moon Clutch from Bali is only $25 and the Wooden Flower hand painted bracelet from Bali is only $10 (pictured here). Children can afford the lower end items or chip in with siblings to purchase the higher end ones.
My Review: The prices are right for this purse and bracelet. They’re both fashion statements. These five Accessories items are made extremely well. The purse has a lining and a small pocket inside. The clasp holds well. It does not feel like wood even though that’s what it’s made from. The bracelet is so pretty. The colors on the flowers are bright and cheery.
Purchase: You can buy online from five Accessories. There are also stores that you can find through their store locator.
Savings Alert! Free shipping for purchases over $100

For this event I am not suggesting that children make their own purchases, especially online, without the approval and guidance of an adult. Please remember single mothers in your life for Mother’s Day. Help their children make or buy gifts so that their Mother’s Day is special too.
This Mother’s Day Gift Guide event will continue throughout April. Stay tuned for more suggestions, reviews and giveaways.
I was given the purse and bracelet from five Accessories for this review.
