5 Amazing DIY Ideas for Mom

  1. Beauty Products Made at Home

Appreciating your mom’s hard work requires more than a card. This year, give her the gift of time and pampering. Balms, lotions, lip scrubs, and facial masks are all essential aspects of skincare and beauty that you can make to show your mom that she deserves more than one holiday.

Making your own skin care products is easier than you think. Source ingredients straight from the kitchen such as honey, brown sugar, and canola oil to create a lip or body scrub that can be used as a mild exfoliant. In a small bowl, gently mix together a tablespoon of brown sugar, a teaspoon of honey, and two tablespoons of canola oil. After letting it set, you can put the concoction into a mini mason jar and finish it off with grosgrain ribbon.

  1. Make Your Own Soap

Complement your beauty package with handmade soap infused with oatmeal, lavender, and almond butter. Depending on your mom’s tastes, you can shave the soaps into custom shapes to convey a personal sentiment and express your love.

Keep in mind, soap requires extended preparation, so be sure to formulate an idea and gather your materials with plenty of time before Mother’s Day.

  1. Create Your Own Granola Mix

Your mom has probably spent more time cooking and preparing meals than anyone else in the household. Many children use Mother’s Day to turn the tables and prepare breakfast in bed for their mom. However, burnt eggs, soggy toast, and spilt orange juice on the duvet covers hardly conveys appreciation and love.

This year, surprise your mom with an all-organic, nutritious granola mix that can be enjoyed in the comfort of her bed or on an early morning hike. With a handful of pistachios, roasted almonds, dried cranberries, and bits of dark chocolate and give her a personalized granola mix that features all of her favorite treats. As an added bonus, you can pair it with a fine cup of light roast coffee or English breakfast tea—small gestures to ensure that she starts off her special just right.
