Moms are wonderful, it’s no reason there is a day to celebrate them. Let’s face it, they deserve the whole year for all they do. I truly wouldn’t be the person that I am today without my mother holding me when I cry, supporting me for my choices and loving the person that I have chosen to become (and am still becoming). Besides giving her the love in return, here are 17 Mother’s Day crafts and DIYs to bring back those childhood Mother’s Day school project memories and show your mother how appreciated she is.
1. Pinecone Roses
Pinecone roses are an adorable spin on a commonly found item from nature and the best thing about this is that they will last way longer than roses (and you can make them ANY color you want)
2. Jar of Reasons Why 'I Love You'
This jar is the perfect way to tell your mother everything about her that is wonderful. And if you need help coming up with reasons, Hallmark has your back.
3. Thumbprint Keychain Heart
This perfect thing about this keychain is that they are so customizable and personable. You can shape them any way you like, paint them and even add your name to the keychain.
4. Popsicle Stick Frame
This proves that something so simple as popsicle sticks can turn into something so cute and special. Perfect for your mom's desk or the fridge!
5. Personalized Candle
Instead of spending tons of money at Bath and Body or Yankee Candle, why not perfect your mom's favorite scent while making the candle in a mason jar. These could be a sprinkle candle (picture above), coffee candle or even a rainbow candle.
6. Dotted Coffee Mug
This is the perfect personalized gift for the mom that cannot live without coffee. Also great for getting creative with letters, shapes and quotes.
