    Fun and creative handmade gifts for Mom that she will absolutely LOVE!

    Spring has finally sprung again and you know what that means … Mother’s Day! I don’t know about you but after all these years I never know what to give my Mom and of course she always says that she doesn’t need anything.

    In case you’re in the same predicament, I went in search of some creative and cool handmade gifts that your Mom and mine would absolutely fall in love with.

    DIY Gift Ideas for Mother's Day

    It’s so easy to get her something I know she will like (chocolates and flowers anyone?) but it’s boring. And since I live in Kentucky, I usually send my Mom a Derby Pie but I think she might be tired of those, too.

    There are all kinds of great DIY gifts to make including beautiful handmade jewelry … I love the birdnest necklace.

    Or, if your mom is into bath bombs and scented scrubs, you can find those how-tos here as well. How about Lemon Raspberry Curd … yum! Hopefully, you will find just the right gift to make for your Mom.
