Mother's Day is right around the corner and there are lots of free gifts you can give your mom that convey your appreciation. Free gifts can come from the heart in special ways that store bought items do not, and Mother's Day is the perfect holiday for these types of gifts. This article will supply you with several free ideas for gifts for your mom on her special day.
Letter
A letter is a special and sweet way to show your mom how much you appreciate her. You can print your letter off of the computer, but handwritten letters are much more personal. Start by brainstorming to make sure you say everything you want to say in our letter. It is also a good idea to write a rough draft of your letter before you create the final gift for your mother.
Collage
Another fun and free gift for your mom is a collage. For this Mother's Day gift it is good to consider a theme for your collage. Use free items such as magazines, photos, and other appropriate items you have around the home for this collage. You can also use old newspapers of magazines to write a sweet saying in the middle of the collage. Glue all the items to a heavy piece of cardboard, and your mom will love all the thought you put into this free gift for Mother's Day.
Photo Frame
Photos are always a good gift idea for Mother's Day, and you can make your mom a unique photo frame to display your family photos. For this gift you will need cardboard, old magazines or junk mail, scissors, and glue. Simply cut the cardboard into a rectangle and cut a smaller rectangle in the center of the first one. The smaller rectangle should easily fit a photo.
Then decide on a nice saying for your frame, and cut out the appropriate letters from the magazine or mail. Also cut out large pieces of paper with pretty colors. Then cut the colored papers into strips. Glue them to the edge of the frame, and remember to overlap the edges to leave no area uncovered. Finally glue the letters to the frame and add a photo to finish this free gift idea.
Mother's Day is a special holiday for moms, and these special gifts will show your mom just how much you mean to her. Free Mother's Day gifts show your mom how important she really is; so try these ideas this holiday.
