Moms who display photos of family and friends for everyone to see will go crazy over Artifact Uprising’s wood blocks and prints. The Denver-based company hand makes these charming photo blocks using 100 percent mountain beetle-kill pine sourced from Colorado forests.
Each tree is different, so the wood blocks bear unique markings and a lovely grayish-blue tone. Before you order, choose 12 of mom’s favorite photos and upload them on the company’s website: artifactuprising.com. Those photos will be printed on textured paper to accompany the wood block. Come Mother’s Day, mom will receive something special to show her sentimental side. One wood block plus 12 prints cost $23.99.
