FABRIC NECKLACE

If your mom likes jewelry, she’ll love wearing a one-of-a-kind fabric necklace made by you. All you need is a few pieces of scrap fabric, some stones and some string and the result is an artsy accessory that you could find selling in a store for much more than it cost you to make.

CHALKBOARD STORAGE JARS

Easy to make and super thoughtful, these DIY storage jars are a useful present for mothers who could use a little more organization in their lives (we think that applies to almost all moms, right?). They’re a great way to reuse old glass jars and look really neat presented in a box or basket with a set of colorful chalk.

HANGING STRING GARDEN

Green-thumbed moms will adore the gift of a homemade hanging string bonsai garden. It’s an impressive present that looks complicated to make, but our DIY makes it a snap.
