Great Gift Ideas For Mom

Mother's Day is one of those holidays that should last all year.  I say that not because I am a mom, but rather because my mom is THE BEST!  Now that I have my own brood, I appreciate my mother more now that I ever thought.  I find myself saying "mom I am so sorry for everything that I have ever done" more and more!  I feel that Karma will help me in my own journey of motherhood!

So, I want to give you all some ideas for spoiling your mom this year.  All of these projects can be created through your own FREE Heritage Makers lifetime publishing account!  If you are like me, I am always looking for something different.  Here are some ideas that any mother will love!

1.  Create a cookbook with the recipes you love the most from mom!  Add pictures of you with your mom to make it more special!

2.  Make a deck of playing cards with photos of you and your kids.  Mom will be the hit of her bridge club!

3.  Get her a gift certificate for her favorite hair and nail place.  Moms love to be pampered!  Include a heartfelt card with special photos of you together.

4.  Create a book that lists the 50-100 things that you love about mom.  Capture the great moments with photos from childhood on up!

5.  Make mom breakfast in bed (but let her sleep in too for an extra gift!)  

6.  Create a deck of "mom coupons".  Include things like "will do the laundry" or "will cook dinner" or even better "free hugs"!

7.  Create a wonderful gift sake for mom to display all year long.  Take a special photo and make it into 12x12 scrapbook page.  Then, modge podge the page to a 12x12 tile. Get a plate display stand and you have a precious keepsake!

8.  Make mom her own set of note cards!  Create the cards with her initials or photos of her favorite flowers, favorite quotes, or any favorite at all!

9.  Make her a personalized planner!  Include favorite photos so that she can show all of her friends her kids (and grandkids)!

10.  Give her a Heritage Makers gift certificate and let her creative juices flow!

Remember, Father's Day is also coming up!  Many of these great ideas can be made for dad too!  It is never too early to start thinking ahead!
