Candle in a Cup.

Coffee (or tea) cups make great gifts. However, too many can clutter your mom’s cabinets. Find a new way to add to her collection without the all the clutter and make her a coffee cup candle. Pick a cute coffee cup and pick up plenty of wax flakes and wicks at your local craft store. Start by melting down the wax. Add in scented oils and pour the melted wax into the coffee cup, ensuring that the wick is centered in the middle. Let the wax harden over the next couple days and you’re good to go. You’ve made a beautiful, creative gift for your mom.

Picture Perfect.

Don’t underestimate the power of a picture; it is worth a thousand words after all. With digital cameras and smartphones, a printed picture is less common nowadays. Giving your mom a meaningful family photo in a gorgeous frame is a great Mother’s Day gift. Pick a recent family photo and take it to be printed. It’s a simple gift, but it makes a big impact.

Mason Jar Flower Pot.  

A bouquet of flowers is a great way to show your mom how much you love her. However, a bouquet doesn’t last long. Swap out the bouquet for a mason jar garden. Invest in a few mason jars, potting soil, and your mom’s favorite flowers. Assemble to mason jar pots and decorate them to your heart’s content. This way your mom can enjoy her flowers year round!
