Homemade Gifts: Mother's Day edition


I've said before that I really love homemade gifts. They are a cheaper way to give something personalized and from the heart. These are the gifts that I made for all of Jackson's grandmothers for Mother's Day. (I know it's early, but I wanted to give them all of their presents before we left for Georgia so that I wouldn't have to ship them).



Michaels had 12 X 12 scrapbooking frames on sale for $3.99 this week, so I got a bunch of those. Then I did a scrapbook layout for each of the grandmothers. Just stick them in the frames and you're done! It was pretty easy, and they all loved them.



Sorry the pictures I took of them didn't really come out that great. Trust me, they're cute in person :) For more homemade gift ideas, check out the mini-scrapbook albums I made as birthday gifts last Fall. For ideas on how to do this project on a budget, check out my scrapbooking on a budget tips.
