Glassblown gifts at Judy’s

For almost 30 years, Judy at the Rink has been offering unique New Orleans gifts, such as home accessories and jewelry. Owner Kay Fausset chooses the store’s inventory, and though some pieces are by national artists, most are local – with New Orleans panache.

This Mother’s Day the store has several gifts for moms. The shop has a special offer on vases by renowned glassblower Simon Pearce – they are now $45 instead of $65. For a more casual gift, Fausset suggests the $20 “adorable, just-for-moms gift – the ‘Mom’s little vase,’” which is made for “the tiny wildflowers and dandelions picked by small, muddy hands and given with love.” Another gift for moms might be the bright polka dot glasses, available in various price ranges.

Judy at the Rink also maintains a bridal registry and provides gift-wrapping. The boutique is open Monday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
