6 IDEAS OF PREPARING A HANDMADE MOTHER’S DAY GIFT

Introduction of Mother's Day

Modern sense of mother's day is originated in the United States. In 1914, both houses of congress established mother's day on the 2nd Sunday of May. After the civil war, Anna M. Jarvis’s mother believed that mothers who lost sons should be given solace, a day of remembrance, and wanted to create a mother's day to honor mothers around the world. After her mother died, Anna M. Jarvis decided to realize her mother's dream. She appealed to the society and gained strong support from all sides. The provision of this holiday is that every family flies the national flag to show respect for mothers. 

These are the date of Mother’s Day in following years:

6 Ways To Celebrate Mother's Day

1. Bring Fresh Flowers

Mother's Day is to carnations what Valentine's Day is to roses. On Mother's Day, people will send their mothers carnations. Pink carnation means mother always be young and beautiful, red carnation means wish mother health and longevity. 

2. Giving A Warm Hug

We are busy in working or studying and always ignore expressing our love to mom. On Mother's day, giving mom a hug and showing her our truly love may make her happy. 

3. Write Congratulation Cards

Text can be stored for a very long time. Write Thanksgiving words on greeting cards and give them to Moms on Mother's Day. Mom will not only feel full of your love, but also have a deeper understanding of your thoughts. 

4. Homemade Scrapbooks

The most thoughtful mother’s day gifts are handmade gifts. A homemade scrapbook can show your endless love to mom. A well-crafted homemade scrapbook with kawaii and unique washi tapes can let mom feel endless surprises. Scrapbooks refer to a kind of notebooks, but the makers' careful decoration and painting add it a more special meaning. 

5. Bring Mom Breakfast In Bed

How about a chocolate croissant from your local bakery? Or, wake mom up with this delicious Frittata de Nonna. Or, delight mom with these easy Strawberry Crepes. Cut the strawberries into heart shapes for extra points! You could also leave her a basket of Blueberry Scones with Lemon Glaze. 

6. Make Simple Video Clips

It is also a very creative Mother's Day gift to take more pictures or videos of Moms and make a simple photo or video collection with beautiful background music.
