Low on Dough but High on Mom? Cheap Mother’s Day Gifts
Mother’s Day is around the corner and every mom deserves a token of appreciation.
Even when you’re broke, you can afford time… check out the below list of inexpensive Mother’s Day gift ideas:
- Buy flower or vegetable seeds, stick them inside a homemade Mother’s Day card and set a date to plant them with her.
- Blow up an old family portrait and frame it. You can decorate the frame or make your own for a personal touch. Include a “I remember when…” story on the backside of the frame. The story will be the tear-jerker!
- Offer to do all the housework on that day and bring over a “chic flick” so she can unplug and do nothing for a change!
- Create chore IOUs she can use on request throughout the year.
- Make a CD of songs you know she likes (even those embarrassing songs!) Design the cover yourself.
- If you have it in your area, go fruit picking then make a delicious desert with her afterward.
- Offer to be chauffeur and butler for a day.
- Keep an eye out for any free concerts or plays in your area. There are usually a bunch around Mother’s Day!
- Make a beaded necklace or bracelet for your mom.
Whatever you decide to do, do it with love ~ isn’t that’s what matters to moms the most?
Have a fun and happy Mother’s Day to all the mommas out there!
