Home Made Card

As a mother’s day crafts, make your mother an extravagant mother’s day card! The idea is to go big! Everything you’ll need for your project can be found at your nearest dollar store.

Mother’s Day Spa Gift Basket

What woman doesn’t like going to the spa? You know what’s better than going to the spa… pampering yourself in the comfort of your own home! In the basket, she’ll have everything she needs from shower essentials, manicure and pedicure supplies, and even something that will keep her comfortable while giving herself a spa day.

Mother’s day Mixtape!

This is the most inexpensive mother day crafts you can come by. This may take a little time, but that is all. Gathering all of your mother’s favorite music combined with a few songs of your own that says you love her is a good mother’s day gift. It means you put a lot of time and thought into the project so she’ll just love it! It is something she could keep with her for longs periods of time.


Frame it!

You know your mom has many loose photos somewhere in a box in her closet just collecting dust. She always says she’s going to get to frame them, but never found the time. Why don’t you do it for her?! The thought of doing so will take her breath away. Buy an inexpensive enormous frame from the fabric store and gather all your family’s pictures and presto! A framed family affair.

A Photo Album of Just You & Her

Now here’s a project that takes time and lots of heart! Sort through all the pics you have of you and your mother, the goofier the better. Place them in a large, paperback photo album and decorate it your liking. The idea of the paperback photo album is to make as personal as possible.

I've been a writer all my life! A good one I must add. Not to be cocky, but I cannot think of anything else to do with my life besides writing. I love to write about what I know along with what I find most interesting about life. I run a BLOG about my journey of leaving home and driving across country to Los Angeles (you're gonna want to read it, it's pretty funny). My dreams are to become an author and to freelance write where ever I can. I can envision myself, interviewing those I admire the most in their careers. That can mean a wide range of people from celebrities to struggle artist on the street. It doesn't matter. As long as you inspire me, to aspire you. Then, I'm good.
