Mom Gift Ideas - Projects to make!
MOM MDF Stands
Cute decorated stands you can personalize as you wish with your favorite embellishments or papers!
Cute decorated stands you can personalize as you wish with your favorite embellishments or papers!
The vinyl and the enlarged photo really make this shadowbox frame stand out! Add some paper and embellishments and you are done!
Chalkboard Letter
Use any letter you wish, "M" for Mom or perhaps the first letter of moms name.
Great Love Shadowbox
A very pretty shadowbox, choose from the listed supplies or choose to your own liking, finish it off with applying the vinyl saying on top of the glass.
Home Decor Tape Frame
This is a quick and easy project with just a few supplies.
Family Shadowbox with Tray
There are so many possibilities with using these divided wood trays. The one above would be perfect to create and give to your mom as a gift! We also have many other project samples using these trays.
Shadowbox with Banner
The banner across the top of the shadowbox adds a little extra flair to the project. Add the touching vinyl sentiment to the outside of the glass and you have a beautiful gift!
Large Photo Tray
Enlarge a photo to 12x12 size (We got ours printed at The Camera Shop here in town) and cut the photo down to 2-5/8” x 3-5/8” pieces to create this unique looking design.
Find an image or word/sentiment online to trace onto wooden plaque and create a nice String Art piece.
Hopefully one of these projects inspires you to break out the craft supplies and create something for Mom! Otherwise, we have an online project gallery full of other ideas! Take a look and see if anything catches your eye!
