Memorable Gifts for Mom
Photo Books and Crafts
"A few years ago, my children gave me a basket of books from my reading list. The best part? A note promising to leave me in peace (at least for a little while) so that I could enjoy them."Suzanne Rust

"I created paper silhouettes of my family members and mounted them in simple Ikea frames. All you need is a profile photo, tracing paper, black card stock, and a pretty background." (For easy-to-follow instructions, search “custom paper silhouettes” on designspongeonline.com.)

"My favorite memories of my mom are from family vacations. So I marked a map with pushpins for each place that we had been to. Now, every time we visit a new location, she adds a pin to the map."

"I made a photo book on kodakgallery.com and featured pictures of my mom, my sister, and me at the same age. It’s amazing that we looked so alike!"

"When I was pregnant with my first child, my mother gave me a cookie jar filled with more than 100 glassine envelopes as a Mother’s Day gift. Inside each envelope she had written a single memory of my childhood."

"In high school, I loved photography. So I took a still-life picture of some of my mom’s things (her watch, glasses, journal) and framed it. It was like taking a portrait of her but without her in it."
