At Heyday, we’ve always been proud to have an incredible team — a powerhouse group of women, moms, daughters, and friends who truly feel like family. As we’ve grown, we’ve been lucky to add even more real family ties, with a few mother-daughter duos now working side-by-side, plus a brand new Heyday mom to celebrate!

This Mother’s Day, we’re sharing a few of our team's go-to gift ideas, inspired by the women we’re lucky enough to work with every day. Whether you’re shopping for your mom, your sister, your best friend, or yourself (because you deserve it too!), we’ve got heartfelt favorites picked just for you.

Mal, Heyday’s Owner, first joined the team as Store Manager before purchasing the business in 2019, and she’s been leading the charge ever since. Her mom, Patty, has been part of the Heyday family right alongside her, keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes as our bookkeeper and all-around support system.

As a small business owner and busy mom of two, it’s safe to say Mal is always on the move. She’s mastered the art of being ready for anything, from boss mode at Heyday to soccer coach on the weekends. Her secret? Keeping her bags packed with the essentials. Right now, her new everyday pouch is stocked with her must-haves: a claw clip, a refreshing face mist, and a hydrating lip treatment.

Similarly, when she’s not lending a hand at Heyday, you can usually find Patty ruling the pickleball court. For busy moms like Mal and Patty, you truly can’t go wrong with a little extra self-care. Whether it’s a luxe hand cream, a quick-refresh beauty essential, or a cozy new pouch to stash it all in, thoughtful little pick-me-ups are always a win.

Brigitte has been with Heyday since day one back in 2007, and after all these years, she’s still the mastermind behind every beautiful display as our Merchandising Director. Her daughter, Abby, has also been part of Heyday since the very beginning, with her first job ever being labeling products and lending a hand whenever we needed extra help. She officially rejoined the team this past winter to help with the holiday rush, and it didn’t take long for us to realize we had to keep her around. Whether she’s assisting in the receiving room or out on the floor merchandising alongside Brig, Abby keeps the wheels turning and the vibes high.

Creative and thoughtful through and through, Brigitte and Abby are proof that a little attention to detail makes all the difference. From Brig meticulously planning every merchandising move to Abby capturing memories in her favorite prompted journal (she loves the One Line a Day journal), their creative spirits shine.

For the moms (and daughters) who always make life a little more beautiful, thoughtful gifts like a special journal or a sweet set of notecards are the perfect way to say "thank you." After all, no occasion feels complete without a heartfelt handwritten note, and Brigitte and Abby know that better than anyone.

Lisa has been part of the Heyday story almost since the very beginning. She hopped on board in 2008, just one year after her daughter Mylie was born. What started as a part-time gig quickly grew into a full-time passion, and today, Lisa leads the way as our Purchasing Manager and one of our lead buyers.

Mylie practically grew up at Heyday, from sipping hot chocolate at staff meetings to helping sticker products when extra hands were needed. She also grew up thinking it was totally normal to stroll behind the counter at any store—classic Heyday kid behavior!

Being a stylish high school senior is a little easier when your mom just so happens to be Heyday’s jewelry buyer and when you can "borrow" some of her coolest pieces. These two make it pretty clear: you can’t go wrong with a beautiful accessory for Mother’s Day, whether it’s for Mom, for yourself, or maybe for a little sharing between the two.

Mylie is graduating this spring, but lucky for us, she’ll be staying close to home and heading to MSU. She’ll also be sticking around Heyday as a stellar sales associate—and yes, still occasionally borrowing a little extra sparkle from Lisa.

Georgia first joined Heyday after following Mallory from Meridian, bringing her signature sunshine to the sales floor. Not long after, her daughter Tessa moved from Chicago to Bozeman and came on board as Heyday’s Store Manager. These days, Georgia is still serving smiles (and tying the most beautiful bows) as a veteran member of our sales team, while Tessa now works her magic behind the scenes as our Operations + Marketing Manager.

Since their days at Heyday don't always overlap, with Georgia holding down the busy sales floor and Tessa tucked away in the office, they make time to catch up over their favorite tradition: mimosas. According to them, mimosas are not restricted to any specific time of day. In fact, Georgia just scooped up a set of adorable daisy glasses for her next mimosa moment... before Tessa could even gift them to her for Mother's Day!

Luckily, Georgia has a soft spot for bright, cheerful touches around the house, whether it’s for hosting or simply enjoying a little everyday magic. From colorful tea towels to floral hand soaps, or those irresistible “just because” finds like ceramic berry bowls, Heyday’s home section is filled with gift ideas that feel as joyful as they are thoughtful.

First up: Lindsey, our Receiving Manager, and her daughter Emmy! While Emmy is already two and a half (where does the time go?!), it still feels like she was just born yesterday. We love the occasional days when daycare is closed and it turns into an impromptu "bring your daughter to work" day. You can usually find Emmy down in the receiving room, riding on merchandising carts, pushing rolling racks, and being an all-around mood maker. Just look at that smile and thumbs up!

And we can’t forget about Amy, our incredible Graphic Designer and newest Heyday mom! We’re counting down the days until she returns from maternity leave, and we can't wait to hear all the stories and see all the sweet pictures of her little one, Theodore ("Teddy"). You can bet her baby shower was filled with the absolute cutest finds from our kids’ section, from cozy onesies to cuddly Jellycat friends.

We feel so lucky to celebrate these amazing moms and their growing families, and to have them as part of ours.

At Heyday, family has always been at the heart of everything we do, whether it’s the real mother-daughter duos working side by side or the team spirit that makes every day feel a little more like home. We feel so lucky to celebrate the moms, daughters, and incredible women who make Heyday what it is, and to share a few of their favorite gift picks along the way.

No matter how you’re celebrating this Mother’s Day, we’re here to help you find something thoughtful, joyful, and full of heart. Whether it’s a little self-care, a sparkling new accessory, a beautiful home good, or a sweet note tucked into a journal, we believe the best gifts are the ones that make someone feel truly seen and loved.

From our Heyday family to yours — Happy Mother’s Day!
