Mother’s Day is Coming (soon!)

May is nearly upon us and it’s time to focus on Mother’s Day. While there’s still time, here are a few ideas to celebrate your Mom:

1. Is she a gardener or just loves Spring? I have a  great new assortment of garden-theme products  available at JoAnn’s to choose from. A garden organizer or watering can along with some gardening gloves and  clogs will get her in the right spirit to enjoy a Sunday in her own backyard. Add a few seeds to plant and if you volunteer to help out for a couple hours you’re sure to make her smile.
2. There are a lot of Moms out there that are crazy about scrapbooking. Add some new papers and stickers to her collection.
3. Paint a flowerpot in her favorite color, trim the edge with beads and add an easy-to-care-for house plant.
4. Knitters can never get enough you know what – YARN! Along with a fresh set of needles and a subscription to a knitting magazine, your gift will inspire her next project.
5. If you make her a hand-beaded necklace or  bracelet, she’ll be able to say with a proud grin, “Why thank you, my daughter made it for me,” every time she receives a  compliment.
6. Impress her with your craftiness by making up one of our projects from the website. Just right for Mom and if you get started now, there’s just enough time to whip up the one you think will please Mom the most. Click on our link for instructions to make a Garden Dangler, a decorative Chalkboard or a simple quilt throw.
7. The classics always work and are appreciated – Sunday brunch and tickets for two to the theater or an upcoming stage show.
8. If your Mom is anything like mine, a card that expresses your grateful and loving words that come from your heart is all the gift that she really wants.
