11 DIY Mother's Day Gifts That Aren't Made Of Macaroni And Paper Plates

Transport your mom right to the spa from her own home with these luxurious bath bombs you can make yourself with lavender essential oils. 

Upgrade Mom's "Mary Poppins bag" to a trendy ombre tote. All you need is some fabric dye and a bucket! 

Mom will love these marbled mugs for her morning coffee, and you'll love how simple they are to make (you just need hot water and nail polish!) 

Make her home a little more familial with a personalized family tree using construction paper, a lot of cutting and a bit of modge podge. 

Use colorful or metallic thread to throw some ombre tassels, add a few hearts or embroider a heartfelt message to jazz up the classic mother's day gift. 

I wouldn't recommend using her good china, but grab a few mismatched teacups from the thrift store and make your own candles with wicks, wax and your own personalized scent (I love this vanilla). 

Choose a favorite family photo and create your own classic silhouette cutout using tracing paper, a pop of color and a hint of metallic shine. They'll be perfect for her gallery wall. 

Gather up some fake flowers, a paper mache letter and your glue gun for this floral monogram, or choose some live blooms for a shorter-lived version of this decorative piece. 

This scroll-esque photo frame is perfect for bulletin boards everywhere! Grab some of those cool paper straws you always want to buy but don't have a good purpose for and go to town! 

Form them yourself with clay, or buy some plain coasters and dress them up with awesome marbled spray paint designs. 

Take Mom's bathroom spa dream to the next level with a few rocks and a glue gun in this simple DIY project.
