Home Design Tips: 8 DIY Crafts For Mother's Day That Are Nice Home Decors Too!

Mother's Day is coming this second Sunday of May and if you like your gift to be extra-special, try these 8 DIY crafts that are nice home decors, too!

We're sure your practical moms won't mind.

1. Hanging Wall Plaque

Take a look at this suggestion by Craft Cuts. Just by using a craft board, wooden letters, special shapes like heart, flowers or stars, you can make a special hanging plaque for your mom.

You may use nice adjectives that aptly describe your mom or even nouns that say how much she means to you like "Angel," "Treasure," "Gem," or even your term of endearment for her. Just make sure she loves the colors you pick. Follow the instructions on the site and you will have a nice living room or dining decor, too.

What's special about this gift is that you can tell her how important she is to all of you in a unique way. Better prepare a handkerchief, too.

2. Vintage Teacup Candles

With all the things she does, wouldn't it be nice for her to relax and spend a nice candle-scented spa moment for herself? Using vintage tea cups, you can create candles for your mother, suggests Mashable. She may put them in her bedroom or the bathroom as simple decors to enliven the room. Here's a tip, you may use various colors to create a more attractive collection.

3. Artwork on Dishes or Mugs

This idea from Southern Savers will touch your mother's heart. If you have a younger brother or sister, you may scan his or her art onto water transfer paper and put it on some dishes. You may also use your own artwork on mugs or tea cups, too.

4. Array of Indoor Plants

Giving plants in nice containers is another great suggestion from Mashable. Such a nice scenery will melt her stress away. Just make sure to give her indoor plants that are easy to maintain. But if she's a garden expert, you may add some nice flowering plants, too.

For 5-8, these ideas are suggested by Country Living.

5. A Breathtaking Centerpiece 

Here's a suggestion by the site that is simply irresistible. With simple steps from Shanty, you can create a wonderful centerpiece to further enliven dinner or lunch conversations.

6. Family Tree Tray

We all now mothers can be sentimental and like to reminisce the sweet or precious moments in our lives. Here's another recommendation from Country Living which she will appreciate. Follow the instructions on Home Made By Jill, and your practical gift is ready to go.

7. Recipe Holder

Here's another practical DIY craft for your mom on her special day. If she loves cooking, she will be delighted with this idea that will make her task easier. Check out Lil' Luna for the steps. You may add more artwork at the corners or the edge of the frame if you like.

8. Blooming Monogram 

This amazing idea seen on Lulu's blog is perfect for Mother's day as well as a spring decor. Although the project does not use real flowers, the effect is still the same as it freshens up the room. You may also use the initial of your mom's name, but if it is not stable in a standing position, lay it flat on a horizontal position. It is a nice addition to her desk or console table.
