DIY Mother's Day Gifts

We're always sending mom out for food, so why not let her do it in style? Eco-friendly grocery bags are all the rage, and can show off a bit of moms personality while she's cruising the dairy isle.

Here are some tote bag projects that show how much you love her cooking:

• Make a Tank Top Tote
• Make a Large Tote from T-shirts
• Bacon & Egg Face Grocery Tote
• Video: Make a Reusable Grocery Bag from Disposable Grocery Bags

Show mom just how funny it is that she still likes The Bangles and Genesis. This cassette tape wallet is easy to make and has so much personality. Almost as much as mom.

Capture all those memories of you and mom in this very personal photo frame bracelet. It's inexpensive and easy to make.

I'm not saying she's old or anything, but mom is probably familiar with vinyl records. Score one for pennies at a thrift store and make her this nostalgic jewelry tray.

These easy earrings can be made with just a couple beads and some craft wire. Take a look at mom's existing jewelry collection before you choose your beads. She may have a bracelet or necklace that you can match these earrings with.
