Mothers Day Gift Ideas

I think Mother's more than most appreciate homemade gifts - or gifts that require a little extra thought so here are 10 ideas than any mother would love to receive (self included)

If mom is anything like me she doesn't go anywhere without her phone - so make her a personalized iphone photo case.

I think these little polaroid magnets from SundaesIns are so adorable! Check out the step by step tutorial on Jules' website to see how to make them.

I love this adorable handbag from Amy Butler, who also offers the free pattern for a practical and cute shoulder bag.

And if your sewing skills are lacking like mine are (I believe I mentioned before I can barely sew a button on) or if you are just pressed for time - you can design a cute travel or cosmetic bag online (or choose one of the pretty designs already made) and personalize it with mom's name - or your own image.

You can make these inexpensive coasters using the simple tutorial from Setting of Four - and customize them using and design you would like.

Make mom a personalized photo book, where she can look at all her favourite family photos. I always make these for my kids grandmas at Christmas and they love them - plus I design one book and order 3 copies because of course I need one for myself.
