The most original gifts for mom do it yourself

Mom is a special person for everyone. She wants to please her with her achievements, care and, of course, gifts. Therefore, we have prepared for you several workshops of varying complexity, with which you can make interesting presentations for mom.

Unusual bouquet of corrugated paper

Unusual bouquets are becoming more and more popular every year. For example, interesting compositions from fresh flowers, as well as bouquets of fruits and vegetables. Bouquets of flowers from corrugated paper look no less attractive.

Everyone can make such a floral arrangement. For this we will prepare the following materials:

• corrugated paper in different shades;
• teip tape green;
• scissors;
• the wire;
• glue gun.

Cut off a strip of pink corrugated paper. Fold it in half, then two more times. The result should be a small rectangle, as shown in the photo.

We cut the upper part of the workpiece in a semicircle and straighten it on the work surface.

Gently twist the edges of each petal.

Stretch the petals with your fingers in the central part. This must be done especially carefully so as not to damage them.

Glue the first petal to the end of the wire using hot glue. We attach a few more petals and, if necessary, fix them.

The result should be such a bud.

From green paper cut out a strip of small size. Fold it in half twice and cut it in the form of a leaf. Separate each leaf and stretch in the central part.

Glue the leaves to the bud, and wrap the wire with a tape tape.

We make a few more flowers in different shades and collect them in a bouquet or composition. If desired, you can put small candies in the middle of each bud. Get an original bouquet of sweets for mom.

Beach bag

If your mother follows fashion, likes to go on vacation and go to the beach, then a handmade bag is an ideal option.

You will need the following:

• piece of cotton fabric;
• potatoes;
• a thread;
• acrylic paint;
• knife;
• sewing machine;
• leather belt;
• scissors.

Fold the piece of fabric for the bag in half.

Cut the potatoes in half. On one side we cut a triangle with a knife.

Pour a small amount of paint on a substrate or disposable plate. Dip the potato in the paint and print the pattern on the fabric blank.

We apply the required number of drawings and leave the fabric to dry completely.

We sew the fabric along the side parts, and also wrap the upper part a few centimeters and flash it, as in the photo. We cut the leather belt into two parts of the same size and sew them to the bag in the form of handles.

Original Recipe Book

Of course, every mom has her own recipe book. But still periodically they should be changed and supplemented with new information. Therefore, an original book for recipes, made by yourself, will always be a relevant gift.

Necessary materials:

• folder;
• a spoon;
• piece of fabric;
• scissors;
• threads for embroidery;
• needle;
• towel;
• hammer;
• marker;
• paper;
• hoop;
• sewing machine;
• Super glue;
• cardboard.

To begin, wrap a spoon in a towel and use a hammer to level it.

From the fabric, cut out a rectangle, slightly larger than the size of the folder.

Close the fabric folder and mark the corners with a marker.

On a piece of paper we draw a word or phrase, which as a result will be on the cover of the book. We translate the pattern onto the material using a marker.

We fix the necessary part of the fabric on the hoop and sew the letters with a decorative stitch.

Turn the fabric over to the wrong side and draw lines according to the marks.

We sew the fabric several times with threads of different colors.

Gently glue the spoon to the fabric and sew it in two places for reliability.

Put the folder on top of the fabric exactly in the middle. We bend the bottom, wrap and glue to the folder. Repeat the same with the top edge.

We wrap the corner parts of the fabric and glue to the folder.

From thick cardboard we cut out rectangles of such a size that it covers the inner walls.

We wrap the rectangles with a cloth and glue them to the folder.

Add a variety of pages for posts. A beautiful recipe book is ready!

Twine Vase

A great way to please mom is to give a DIY vase and a beautiful bouquet.

We will need the following:

• twine;
• vase;
• scissors;
• glue gun;
• white tape.

Glue a small piece of tape to the end of the rope. This is necessary so that the ends do not fray.

Glue the end of the string to the bottom of the vase. Wrap the vase to the top edge. Glue the tape to the second end and fix it on a vase.

Stylish, original vase is ready. It remains only to put a bouquet of flowers in it and present it to mom.

Themed Gift Box

It is sometimes difficult to come up with a specific gift even to a loved one. In this case, you can fill a small box with various necessary trifles. For example, make a personal care kit. These can be various gels, foams, body scrubs, as well as bath bombs.

To work you need the following materials:

• corn flour;
• lemon acid;
• grape seed oil;
• sea ​​salt;
• sparkles;
• silicone or plastic molds;
• small containers;
• a spoon;
• food flavorings.

 

In a small container, mix two tablespoons of soda, as well as one each of citric acid, cornmeal, and sea salt. Mix all the ingredients well until smooth.

Add dye as desired, as well as flavoring oil.

If desired, add a little sparkle and mix until evenly distributed.

If you don’t have molds, then you can simply make a bomb with your hands.

But still they will be much more attractive if you make them in beautiful molds. After all the prepared mass is distributed over the containers, leave for several hours.

We take out all the bombs from the molds, pack them and put several different options in a gift box.

As mentioned above, boxes can be with different contents. Culinary presentations look great. For example, a set for making sushi, for lovers of Italian cuisine and others.

Some of the components can also be made or decorated with your own hands. We offer to decorate classic wooden kitchen tools.

We will prepare such materials:

• wooden tools;
• acrylic paint in different shades;
• plastic cups;
• sandpaper;
• sheets of paper or newspaper.

We process the surface of wooden tools with sandpaper. Wipe the surface with a piece of cloth.

On a work surface we put sheets of paper or a newspaper. Pour paint into plastic cups. Dip a small part of the wooden tool in the paint.

We take out the tool and hold until the remains of paint do not drain. We put the blank on a jar or any other item and leave it to dry completely.

Repeat the same with the rest of the items.

Beautiful, original kitchen items are ready.

As you can see, absolutely everyone can make interesting gifts for mom. To do this, you do not need too expensive materials. Simply show your imagination and boldly translate your ideas into reality.
