5 DIY Gift Ideas for Mothers Day

1.  Nothing says "I Love You" better than a home made breakfast
It isn't going to cost a fortune, and your mom is going to be happier than you could ever imagine!  If you plan on being more creative and using a decorative tray, don't forget the flowers!  Breakfast in bed is a dream come true for many Mother's--and it's unforgettable!  Don't think about doing it, DO IT.

2.  Did you think about "home made bath salts"?
You don't have to go out and spend a fortune for bath salts.  These can be put in decorative jars hand crafted for authenticity.  Make sure you choose fragrances that are sure to be very aromatizing for tired mom!  Remember, these are extremely cost effective, but highly creative!

3.  Give a green gift!
Mom will appreciate your consideration of the environment and won't even stop to think about how much, or how little you might have spent.  You can do well by going eco friendly if your mom is a bag lover, and brings her own shopping bags.  Do make sure you use recyclable cotton and other accessories.  You're only limited to your own creativity!

4.  Go with a family tree photo frame
There is no doubt mom will love this!  You can use pictures gathered through the years to add more poignancy too. This is one of those emotionally charged gifts that are more valuable than any amount of money.

5.  Create her favorite eye mask You can do this with ingredients you probably already have on hand!  The main expense comes in with the basket and the tiny little jars you might want to bejewel and make eye catching! All of these little gift ideas mean so much more than spending a large amount of money.  

Don't forget overnight getaways, or a stroll in a scenic park!  Let your mind guide you, and always reminisce on those things you've noticed your mom most fond of to get it right!

So many holidays! Now that you've got Mothers Day squared away, don't forget about Valentine's Day!
