Creations, Last Minute Mother’s Day Gifts

Mother’s Day is coming in just a few days,

and if it has snuck up on you, here are some last minute gift ideas

Flowers are always a great choice,

and why not put them in an unexpected container,

like a cute pitcher, to really make them special

Match the flowers to the container for a wow presentation

Put them in a watering can and she can use it to water her garden

If you want to get crafty,

make a Memory Box with special photos or words

this one was made with a wooden cube from the craft store,

but you could also cover a real box

so she could put special things inside

You can also transform a bottle with decoupage,

Decoupage Bottle

These bottles are birthday themed,

but I included them just to show you another bottle look

Birthday Bottles

Add paint, faux flowers and beads to bottles

and add a pretty knob for a stopper

Decoupage Bottlescape Bottles

Spray paint bottles in bright colors and add

a pretty ribbon or glue on colored buttons

Make a Monogrammed Frame Mat,

a fast and easy project

Or paint her monogram on a flower pot or 2

Glue some bling, pieces of old jewelry, glass tiles etc.

on a ceramic tray for her dresser or vanity Gold Glamour Tray

Fill a pretty teacup or mug with chocolates,

teabags, coffee mix and various goodies

and wrap it up in clear paper tied with a bow

These were Galentine gifts, but show you the idea

And last, my favorite last minute gift idea,

a basket full of all kinds of goodies…

gourmet food, candies, candles, hand lotion, body cream,

whatever she loves~

I like to go to a store like HomeGoods,

where I first choose a container,

then browse through the store filling it with treasures…

You can even do this at the grocery store

there are plenty of wonderful choices there too

Choose a theme like I’m so Lucky you’re my Mom

Spring Chick Baskets

Or choose a color and fill the container with color coordinated things

This is a planter pot full of orange kitchen and cooking items

You can even use a pretty towel as the container

Gift in a Towel

Now you’re all set!

Have a wonderful Mother’s Day,

whether you’re the giver or receiver!
