Let’s roll up our sleeves and make a few homemade Mother’s Day Gifts this year! Join me to make our most popular gifts for mom!

M O T H E R | A person who loves unconditionally. The maker and keeper of memories. A person much loved and deeply admired.

We try so hard to honor our mothers on this special day. Sometimes it can be hard to find something tangible that can be gifted to show them just how much they mean to us. Meaningful and intentional gifts can be super hard to find.

So, we have gathered up some of our most enjoyed projects to make with your own hands, this Mother’s Day – most can be made in under 1 hour! We want to make it even easier for you by providing you selection of our 5×7″ Custom Watercolor Mother’s Day Cards! See the end of this post!

Let’s get gifting!

Mother’s Day Baking Recipes

Gift your mother one of the sweetest gifts out there!

It’s amazing how food can taste so much better when you aren’t the one making it! Baking is a labor of love and I know quite a few moms who would love to walk into a kitchen with a warm dessert on the counter (and possibly some cleaning fairies as well!)

And since your mother has taken such great care of you, try your hand at caring for a Sourdough Starter – it will be ready right in time for Mother’s Day and nothing says “I appreciate you” more than saving her this 4-5 day process!

1. Chocolate Chip Oatmeal – these are extra special, like no other oatmeal cookie you’ve ever tasted!
2. Matcha White Chocolate Cookies are perfect for your loved ones with a fresh palette
3. Creamy Orange Muffins – bright, zesty, and the ideal addition to your Mother’s Day Brunch
4. Homemade Palmeras – just 5 ingredients to make this sweet, light pastry dessert

Thoughtful Handcrafted Gifts

Time to break out the crafting kit! These gifts are practical and long-lasting – gift your mother her new favorite accessory she never knew she needed!

Reversible Apron

This reversible apron can be made with mom’s favorite fabric in just 5 steps! While you’re at it, make yourself one to coordinate! Family baking nights will never be the same!

Custom Leather Apple Watch Band

This leather watch band project is an easy way to make something simple that will make her think of you every time she looks at her watch! You can use any leather you have available, watch band hardware, and a wood burning tool and voila!

Flat Bottomed Zipper Pouch

Put your sewing skills to practice and make this practical and functional zipper pouch for Mom! Fill this little flat bottomed zipper pouch with her favorite paints, a nail polish or a travel ticket and her passport.

Natural Wellness

Save your mother (and the Amazon drivers!) from another beauty product on your doorstep. Bring the spa to your home with these wellness products that use simple, beneficial ingredients. Plus, they make large enough batches that they will last her for a while!

Dry Shampoo

My go-to DIY dry shampoo recipe is just 3 ingredients! It’s easy to grab and works wonders at refreshing my hair for the day! Make sure to add in her favorite essential oil scent!

Hair & Scalp Tonic

A spa treatment in a bottle! Aka Rapunzels Potion, this tonic is made up of tea tree oil, rosemary oil, geranium essential oil, and olive oil. It is seriously magical and promotes scalp health and hair growth!

Tallow & Honey Body Wash

If the women in your family have started using tallow products, like me, this one is for you! The tallow in this recipe leaves the skin silky soft and it’s amazing knowing that you are getting nourishment from all natural ingredients.

Other Great Ideas for Mom

The Best Homemade Cleaner: Yup, you know mom will love that you took the time to assemble the ingredients to our Homemade Cleaner to make things cleaner around the house. Maybe you even include a gift certificate for a free house cleaning with the new household cleaner. Oh and do yourself a favor and make yourself a bottle too!

A Simple Spring Wreath: The items we used to make this Simple Spring Wreath are pussy willows and dried flowers. This wreath is perfect for bringing a bit of bright and shiny to mom’s front door. Or maybe, just maybe you are missing mom this year and you think this might be a wonderful way to honor mom where she is now.

Custom Curtains: Sew her a brand new set of Simple Custom Curtains

What makes Homemade Mother’s Day Gifts Special?

Making something with your own or your children’s hands can mean more than a store bought gift. But I totally get it, “Emily, I’m not crafty”!

So for those of you who aren’t the crafty type, perhaps mom would love something for her garden or garage this next season. Check out our Favorite Garden Tools Gift Guide!
