With everything we have going on right now (buying a house, planning my sister’s wedding, working on her bridal shower, planning another good friend’s shower, and so on and so forth), it just dawned on me this weekend that we’re only a few weeks out from Mother’s Day! So let’s talk Mother’s Day gift ideas!

Homemade Mother’s Day Gift Ideas
More than most others, I really believe that Mother’s Day is an occasion ripe for celebrating with a sweet homemade token of affection or two. Moms love it when you make them stuff. Seriously. But you’re old enough now that you should make your mom something good, so we’re skipping the dried pasta art and going straight for the good stuff. Any other homemade Mother’s Day gift ideas that you love? Link ’em up in the comments so I can scope it out and make my mom something good this year!

All of this talk about Mother’s Day gift ideas has made me realize that I can’t wait for the days when Baby E comes home from preschool with construction paper Mother’s Day cards…even though I actually don’t want to rush it, I promise! But gosh, Mother’s day is such a totally different bag once you’re a mom, huh?

Add one more thing to this list: a homemade card. I still make them for my mom, and have already started dropping heavy hints to my son ; ) This is coming from someone who designs cards for a living: make your mom a card, don't buy one. Homemade cards from the heart are the best, even if you can't draw.

Yes! Totally agree, Erika! I can't wait until little E makes me cards! Construction paper and glue. Best Mother's Day gift ever!

My mom has always said she prefers homemade gifts to the ones bought at the store, so these are all perfect for Mother's Day! Now I just have to narrow it down and decide which one I want to spoil my mom with:)
