Other Gift Ideas

An Old Photo

Maybe there’s an old family photo that you all love, hidden away in one of your old photo albums. Maybe it’s a photo of her with you when you were little that she treasures? Either of these would be a great photo to get enlarged and framed, turning that small pocket-sized photo into a portrait that could be hung on a wall. This way, you can be assured your mom will love the picture as well as the fact that you’ve made it into something she can see every day.

Scrap Book 

If you have lots of family photos and want to make something special with them, then why not make a scrapbook? You can buy these in any stationary store or even make your own. Group together photos with other memorabilia, plus you can even add in quotes and personal messages. This is a great way to collect all sorts of things that your mom will love and give her a Mother’s Day present that will be cherished for years.

Make a Collage

Rather than a scrapbook, you could make a collage instead. Get copies of all of your mom’s favorite photos and then cut them out and arrange them all inside one frame. This Mother’s Day gift will mean your mom can see all her favorite photos in one place and will be sure to bring up fond memories from the past.

Make a Portrait 

A great Mother’s Day portrait idea is to have your kids make their own paintings of their mom. Using crayons, paints, stickers and even household things such as pasta and rice. This is a great way for kids to get creative while making their mom a celebrative present that she’s sure to love.

Handmade Frame

No matter what type of photo you choose, it can be customized with a handmade frame around the portrait. You can either use an existing frame and decorate it or make your own. When you decorate the frame, use your mum’s favorite colors and designs. If you go into any craft store you’ll find all sorts of ideas to inspire you and all the equipment you’ll need, from paints, stickers, glitter, fabrics and glue. 

We hope that you’ve found some of these tips for using a Mother’s Day portrait as a way to show how much you care about and love that special woman in your life.
