Mother's Day Crafts for Kids

I found these adorable ideas for Mother's Day Gifts for kids.
I thought I would share them with you too.
Hope you get inspired.

Mother's Day Gift Jar


Make Mom feel extra special on Mother's Day with this "I Love You" jar. Cut 1-inch-wide strips of colorful or patterned paper and write a reason you love her on each strip. Bend the ends of the strip together to make little rings with the message on the inside. Fasten the ends together with stickers, and place them in a glass jar. Make a label for the front of the jar.


Sewing Organizer Gift Idea for Mom

Create an adorable sewing organizer from an egg carton for Mom. First, clean an old egg carton, then dress it up with a quick coat of spray paint. Fill each compartment with safety pins, sewing needles, buttons, and thread. Add a made-to-fit pincushion by wrapping fabric around cotton stuffing (find both at crafts or sewing supply stores). Use a safety pin or fabric glue to close the fabric ends in the back.



Flower Seed Packets

Celebrate the sweetness both Mom and spring have to offer with flowers that will keep her smiling long after Mother's Day. Wrap store-bought seed packets for your mom's favorite blooms in easy-stitch burlap bags, and seal the bags with a plant marker. If you want to spice up the bag, pin a vintage picture of the flower on top for an added touch.


Washi Tape Clips
Kids might need a little help from dad getting the tape to go on straight. 
Use them as chip clips or hot glue magnets to the back for instant refrigerator art holders.


Painted Handprint Vase
A new spin on the handprint craft trend! 
This sweet vase is the perfect way to display Mom's Mother's Day bouquet.
