1.Mother’s Day in a Jar

A great idea this Mother’s Day.  A twist on a traditional hamper idea with everything you mum will need to pamper herself this Mother’s Day.

Find a nice big jar and fill it with all your mum’s favourite things to enjoy and pamper herself with. Put the lid on and finish it with some ribbon and a tag to ‘Mum’.

  • Grab a box frame and a wooden letter M or cut out your own letter M from thick card.
  • Cover it with some decorative paper.
  • Create some matching bunting by cutting out small triangles in corresponding paper.
  • Take a parcel tag and add a label wit “M is for Mum/Mummy’
  • Finally add your message on the bottom of the picture mount and there you have it!

3. Picture Coasters

A lovely gift so that mum can surround herself with some of her favourite pictures without the need for extra wall space.

  • Get some plain coloured coasters
  • Print off enough of mum’s favourite picture to cover them all
  • Apply PVA glue to the back of the picture to hold it in place
  • Paint over PVA glue to cover and seal the image onto the coaster
  • Leave to dry
  • Once dry the final tip is to add some sticky back surface protector pads to prevent the coasters scratching mum’s best coffee table
  • Gather the completed coasters together and tie some ribbon into a bow to hold them all together.

4. DIY Bath Salts

No mum can resist the opportunity to relax in a hot bath.  So dim the lights, light the candles and send mum upstairs to the bathroom with one of these fantastic homemade jars of bath salts this Mother’s Day.  You could even cook dinner while she takes a load off.
