20+ Handmade Gift Ideas for Mom

Have you realized that Mother's Day is only two weeks away? However, that still leaves plenty of time to start thinking about a special gift for her special day. And what says special more than handmade? Sooo....I am sharing a few ideas for gifts that are easy to make but still say how much she is loved! You could even just tuck them in with your gift as a little extra something!



CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT No-Sew Linen and Burlap Starfish PillowIf your mom is a big fan of the beach, then my NO-SEW LINEN AND BURLAP STARFISH PILLOW is perfect for her! You don't even have to sew to create this one, either!

 
These FRAMEABLE VINTAGE SEASHELL PRINTS also make a great gift for the beach-lover in Mom! The graphics are included on the post, of course! Just add frames!
 CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Mason Jar Tea TowelsThe iconic Mason jar has made its way onto these pretty  EASY MASON JAR TEA TOWELS.  If you can iron and you have a printer, you can make them! The free graphic is included.

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Parisian Architecture {Aged Paper} Candle Wraps
Perfect for those who dream of Paris, these PARISIAN ARCHITECTURE AGED PAPER CANDLE WRAPS add the perfect touch to pillar candles. You will also find a link to my tips on aging paper to give it a vintage look.

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Lavender Goats Milk Soap
Who doesn't love the scent of lavender and my FIVE MINUTE LAVENDER GOATS MILK SOAP doesn't disappoint! And...it's so easy that it literally takes only five minutes!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Spiced Apple Goats Milk Soap
Or for the mom who likes a spicier, more apple-y scent, how about my FIVE MINUTE SPICED APPLE GOATS MILK SOAP It's equally easy and fun to make, too!

This one is really fun to make and can be created in her favorite colors or to match the décor! It's my EASY NO-SEW FABRIC WREATH and quite literally, all you have to do is tie it! With a little help, even the kids can do this one!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT POTTERY BARN Inspired No-Sew Bougainvillea Pillow
This POTTERY BARN INSPIRED NO-SEW BOUGAINVILLEA PILLOW stars pretty spring blooms and is another one of my favorite no-sew projects! The template for the blooms is included on the post.

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT DIY Farmhouse Candlesticks
If Mom loves farmhouse style, then these DIY FARMHOUSE CANDLESTICKS might be just the gift for her!  And...with some help this might be another one for the kids to create since the cows are actually from the toy aisle!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Easy French Fabric Decoupage PotsThis is my new favorite... my EASY FABRIC DECOUPAGE FLOWER POTS. They add a whole new level of pretty to potted flowers and are not hard to make, either!

Aren't these HYDRANGEA TEA TOWELS pretty....and they are super easy and inexpensive, too! The free graphics are included in the post.

These CHALKBOARD FLOWER POTS are another fun and easy gift idea...and you can add your own message, too!


Or how about a pretty GREY WILLOW FRENCH BASKET with a chalk tag to personalize...and you can fill it with special gifts for her!

I love this COUNTRY LIVING INSPIRED TABLE RUNNER...a fun addition to the everyday table!

 Isn't this a fun and different way to present Mom with flowers...and they will last until fall, too! This SHABBY PICNIC BASKET PLANTER is easy and inexpensive to make but looks like a million!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT DIY Vintage French LinensSuper-inexpensive Ikea tea towels are used for these DIY “VINTAGE” FRENCH LINENS. They are not as hard to make as they look…that’s an iron-on transfer, not embroidery! All of the letters of the alphabet are there in the graphic so you can create your own monogram!
