Instructions

1. One of the most typical things, simple to make and a very handy craft, are photo frames. Imagine a frame with a nice photo, made by you. Think of a photograph that you are with your mother, or a photograph of you that your mother likes a lot, or one of herself that you like a lot. The question, take the photo and when you know what it is, measure it. Both the length and the width.
2. Now think about the design you want for the frame. Think about your mother's tastes: more modern, classic, original... That way you'll know what design to do. Choose to buy it, for example, made of wood and you can paint it yourself or decorate it. Paint in the color you like best, add glitter, stick colored stones, etc.
3. The other option, for people more crafty with crafts, you can make a frame completely from scratch. Choose your stationery. There is a lot to choose from, cardboard, cardboard, foam rubber, etc. It will be as easy as measuring the photo, cut twice that size. Paste the photo in the center and decorate. Or, place the photo in the center and make a hole so that the photo is centered. Behind it, so that the photo is stuck, place a piece of cardboard.
4. Handmade flowers. The flowers, in all their variants, are a gift with which you will hit the target. To make them by hand, you will need Pinocchio paper, tissue paper, or EVA foam. Depending on the material you choose, they will have one effect or another and you can make some flowers or others. If you want to make flowers that are not very flimsy and cost you less to make them, you can opt for tissue paper, to make roses or carnations, or Eva rubber. The Eva rubber will be quite easy for you to make the crafts. Choose the flower; the daisy is the easiest flower to make. The colors: think of the classic ones or, of colors to be more original or make them the favorite color of your mother. You will need a long wooden stick, colored foam, scissors, pencil and glue. In the foam, draw the petals and then cut it out. Go sticking the petals and when they have stuck, stick it with glue on the stick. Here later there are more options: prepare it to make a bouquet (you will need more wrapping paper and wrap it as if it were real), or, a small pot and glue it.
5. Sweeten the bouquet. Another very original gift can be a bouquet of "flowers" made from sweets. Think about whether he likes lollipops or lollipops. Or, the gummy that you like the most.

6. Something more sense, a nice letter. Something that your mother will love without a doubt is that you express your feelings to her. Don't be shy, she chooses a beautiful piece of paper, write everything that means to you, how much you love her, what you feel, memories, moments... whatever she wants. You can place it in a nice envelope or make it out of parchment. Burn the corners for a more “old” feel, or roll the paper into a roll and tie with a pretty ribbon.
7. Boxes full of surprises. Something that is original and not very expensive, are the boxes. You can either reuse them, such as wood and fruit. Paint them, decorate them pretty, etc. Inside, place things that they might like: sweets, chocolates, flowers, things to have a picnic, fill it with fruit to make it a healthy basket, stuffed animals, etc. Think about the size and therefore whether you should include more or less things.

15. Footprints. Put like that, it sounds weird right? Nothing is further from reality. One thing that touches all mothers' hearts is their children's little hands, a few kisses, little feet...For this reason, something very simple to do with the smallest of the house (or not so small), is to take a pretty piece of paper, paint the little hands or the feet (or both) with paint and then put it on the paper. Wait for it to dry and voila. If you want, you can paint when it has dried with white glue (mixed in water). Then wait for it to dry well. In this way, the paint will not rub off and will last longer. Something more original is to also make the child's hand but draw the outline on paper. Then cut. Paint it and, finally, take the hand and stick it on a stick. In this way it is the same, but it gives it a different air. In schools it is one of the most recurrent crafts among children for Mother's and Father's Day.
16. Personalized cards. Something that cannot be missing for a day like this is a card. It can be very pretty, even if you make it yourself. Maybe it will turn out better or worse.

But to make it something more special, do it yourself and make it your own craft, it gives it that special touch. Just think of how you want it to be and start letting your imagination run wild. If you're not very crafty or crafty, opt for a book in small format. Cardboard, cut them in half, make more sheets and fill each page with photos of you, of special moments, of her, of the family... write things for her. Be detailed. Anything goes. Even notes of humor. And if you want it to be more endearing, don't forget to paste memories on those sheets. Movie tickets show tickets, various souvenirs...
