1. A tranquil home spa day

Whether your budget doesn’t stretch to a traditional spa day or you’re looking for something with a more personal touch, why not make your very own Zen den in the comfort of your own home? Kit your lounge or bedroom out with scented candles, face masks, and treats for the hands and feet, and invite your mom round for the perfect home pamper session.

2. Create a memory book

Mother’s Day gifts don’t have to cost the earth. It’s a day when it really is the thought that counts.

Create a memory book by printing out photos of your favorite moments together over the years, or a special vacation or event, and arrange them in a memory book with some special notes and memories. Your mom will really appreciate the time and effort that you’ve put into creating a truly unique and meaningful gift.

3. Make your own Mother’s Day card

Remember when you were at school and each year, you’d present your mom with a beautiful, handmade Mother’s Day card? Why not continue that tradition?

Get crafty by making your own Mother’s Day card. Pinterest is full of great creative ideas if you’re in need of a little inspiration to get you started.

As well as showing your mom you really care, the process of making your own card will also allow you to unleash your creativity and unwind.

4. A jar of appreciation

There are plenty of Mother’s Day crafts ideas out there, and this one is sure to impress. Simply take a clean, empty jar and fill it up with handwritten notes that start with “I appreciate you because…”

This is a particularly good Mother’s Day gift if you don’t live close to your mom. Whenever she needs a pick me up, she can dip into the jar and be reminded of just how much you care about her.
