As most of us are aware (unless you are the unfortunately soul that has forgotten that Mother’s Day is this weekend, thus failing to get a present), this Sunday will be the day we all celebrate our moms for the awesome individuals they are. I’m not a card-and-flowers kinda gal, so finding a present that is worthy for my mom proves difficult. If you are like me, then you are going to need a few fresh ideas.
Here are some great D.I.Y. Mother’s Day gifts I found online and the links to the instructions. Whether you want to add a little extra to the present you already got her, or made the classic mistake of forgetting all together, these gifts will surely put a smile on your mom’s face.
