Mother’s Day is right around the corner and even though we are ALL social distancing, it doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate in style!
I have some really fun crafts that you can do with the kids, mommy and me, or to help out all those Dad’s out there… You can make for mom with the kids! Trust me all Mom need a little extra love this year and here are some easy and FUN ways to honor her. Plus, I have some great gifts ideas that are shipping!
Mom will love this handmade Tin Pail craft gift! All you need is a small pail. If you don’t have time to order supplies, don’t worry! Ask the kids to find things around the house to make them. They can use yogurt containers or sauce jars! Then have the kids decorate them with paint, glitter… Then have them glue on some gems or even ribbon. It is so fun to make and there are so many ways she can use them! I love the idea of planting seeds for mom, like lavender! Or since many moms are working from home, make her a pen or pencil organizer! Or even for makeup brushes… The ideas are endless.
Next is this super cute mommy and me jackets! This is a great idea to do together or even make for grandma! Get as creative as you like! Find some old denim jackets and refresh them for Spring! Grab the fabric paint and have fun. I think handprints would be cute... we did matching hearts and rainbows! Make something fashionable and meaningful… I know all moms will love this. I do, I can’t wait to wear mine. Also, a great gift idea for grandma!
Ok, so if you want to order mom that perfect gift here are some great ideas for you!
Give her some home beauty! Self care is super important right now. I absolutely love Wander Beauty. It’s all natural and they have perfect gifting kits. Look at this You are Wanderful Kit. Perfect for mom! We all could use these gold under eye masks! (You're Wanderful Kit is $22 but is currently on sale for $19. They are still shipping with the exception of Hawaii, Alaska, and Canada due to COVID-19. ) https://www.wanderbeauty.com/youre-wanderful
Another great gift for mom right now is bringing a little outdoors inside! I love this at home herb garden! Mom can grow all her own healthy herbs herself which is more important now than ever.. I love this one by With My Bare Hands... They are handmade in Brooklyn with sustainable materials. Plus it’s super chic and beautiful. Bring the outdoors in never looked so good. (herb garden from With My Bare Hands is $85. They have other items ranging in price from $15 to $100 so there are options.)
Last is a baking kit by Red Velvet. We all know we have been spending a ton of time in the kitchen. Well this time the treat is for Mom! Ok, these kits are my favorite! I actually gift these at my annual holiday party and they are a huge hit… but now more than ever, these pre-packed kits are essential. Find the joy in creating something delicious. They have cakes, cookies, tartes. You can’t go wrong and the best part is that it comes with everything you need! It’s the perfect way to enjoy Mother’s Day this year…FROM HOME!! (Price from $25-35)
