When my boy brought the vase home from school, I asked him if it was for me. He said "no, it's for me for Mother's Day." I said "why do you get a present for Mother's Day?" His response: "so every time I look at it I think about you."
I was so delighted to receive an early Mother's Day gift from my 4 year old, and I thought it was such a cute, easy idea. He simply painted a glass vase (and was very proud of it!) and filled it with soil and flowers with a little Mother's Day sign (the flower instructions are on the back of the sign). Other similar ideas would be to do this with a wine glass (flowers in it for Mother's Day, and then she could use the hand-painted glass for drinking after the flowers are gone) or other glassware like Mason jars. You could paint on small handprints, personalize them with Mom's name (or Grandma! :), write the year, etc. Spray paint also works really well on glass if you want the whole thing a certain color.

AuthorI love writing romance novels, editing other people's novels, planning parties (heavy on the theme food!) and watching movies. Cooking has also become a passion of mine (because you can't have a proper party without food!) and I love finding new hobbies when I can squeeze them in. Archives
