DIY Mother's Day card

What can you do with your own hands out of paper and give your mom for Mother's Day, if not a postcard? Today there are a lot of interesting master classes, thanks to which you can present a beautiful gift to your dearest person.

Materials:

• colored cardboard;
• scissors, PVA glue;
• ruler, marker;
• half beads.

Master Class

We bend a cardboard with a density of 140 to 160 g of dark pink color in half

Another sheet, only pale pink, cut 5 mm on each side and also fold it in half

On three different strips of white paper 15, 5x3, 5 cm in size we write or print any inscription, for example, "To the best mommy"

We fold the congratulations in half

On the inside of the postcard, we measure it out with a pencil, where the congratulations will be approximately located. Then we open the strips, spread with glue and glue, and then cut to the very end of the white strip

We bend the stripes with congratulations, first in one direction, and then in the other, and the thin pink stripes in the opposite direction

We fold the inside of the card, coat the very edges with glue along the entire contour and glue it to the base

Cut out 6 large hearts and 10 small ones from pink paper, decorate the inside of the card

Cut out 3 squares with dimensions of 6x6 cm and 7x7 cm and 2 squares 8x8 cm from white paper

Fold the largest square in half diagonally twice

We draw a circle with a diameter of 3 cm and draw the legs. Cut out. We reveal the figure and bend the leaves with a pencil

We do the same with the second square. After that, glue the second one on one petal with a shift

Cut out 3 petals with a diameter of 26 mm from 7x7 cm squares. Glue them together. We make petals with a diameter of 22 mm from small squares. Then we take the first shape and bend one petal so that they twist into a tube (for this we use a thinner brush or pen)

• Then we glue one petal, on the opposite we glue the inner part with glue and glue it to the opposite petal. On the remaining petals, we also apply glue to the inside and glue it. Apply glue to the second pair of petals (on the inner side), put the first bud in the middle and, in turn, glue the petals to it.
• We also glue the third pair of petals to the bud, which already resembles a rose. As a result, we get three parts of the future flower.

We drip glue into the middle of the largest workpiece, glue the second, and then the third part. The flower is ready. On the outside of the postcard, glue a light pink sheet of paper

We take a blue sheet 5 mm smaller, apply glue on one side, on the bottom and half of the other side

We glue, bend the corner, apply glue to the very edge and glue it as in the photo

Cut out 3 squares of 6x6 cm and 5x5 cm from dark and pale pink paper. We make 2 more flowers. Cut out leaves of different sizes from green paper

On the front side, in the center of the pink corner, glue a white rose with leaves. Then next to one and the other side we glue the rest of the roses with leaves

In conclusion, we glue the postcard with white half-beads and glue the inscription "Congratulations on Mother's Day!"

It is better to take half-beads on an adhesive basis, if desired, you can apply a little transparent glue to the roses and sprinkle with sparkles.

An incredible gift for mom

Mom is always pleased to receive gifts from her daughter, especially when it is made with her own hands. But what to give for Mother's Day - we will show in a very interesting master class.

Master Class:

Cut out a square with a side of 29.7 cm from A3 format cardboard, and then divide it into 9 squares of the same size

Draw a diagonal on the corner squares and draw hearts according to the template. Cut out

Then we draw along all the lines with a non-writing pen or skewer, bend it. We erase all the drawn lines. Cut out 4 hearts from colored paper, which should be smaller in size than the hearts on the box. We glue it

We cut out a square with a side of 9.7 cm, to it we glue a satin ribbon 12 cm long so that we get a pocket. Glue a bow from the same tape on top

• Glue the square to the side of the box. Cut out a rectangle of 8x6 cm from white paper, cut off 2 corners, make a hole with a hole punch. The result is a tag. You will need 5 pieces in total.
• We take a satin ribbon 25 cm long, collect tags on it and tie it in a bow. We put it under the ribbon on the square. And we do the same on the opposite square.

For the next surprise, cut out a 18x9 cm rectangle and fold it in half. Glue 2 squares inside with a side of 7 cm, and on the back side - a satin ribbon 47 cm long so that you can tie a bow

We glue the surprise to the box and additionally decorate it with rhinestones. For the last surprise, cut out 4 rectangles 7x5 cm. They can be made in one color or two

We also cut out a rectangle measuring 17.5x7 cm. We mark the width at the top and bottom. First, 5 cm, and then two marks of 1 cm. We connect, draw along the lines with a non-writing pen and bend

On each rectangle on one side, glue a strip of double-sided tape and along the lines. Cut out a strip of 9.5x2 cm from cardboard and glue it to the back of the first blank

Glue adhesive tape to the edges of the strip, fold the part in half and fix it to the box itself. The first part of the box is ready

For the second part, we cut out a square of 24 cm from cardboard, divide it into 9 squares of 8 cm each and cut out the corner ones. We draw along the lines with a non-writing pen, bend. We glue photographs or beautiful pictures with wishes on the squares. Glue the two parts of the box together

For the third part of the box, namely for the flashlight, we cut out the part according to the template. We draw along the lines with a non-writing pen, bend. We glue the sides to each other on double-sided tape

We connect the bottom of the flashlight with ordinary transparent tape

Putting the top of the flashlight together and glue the bow. Additionally, we decorate with rhinestones or lace ribbon, and glue decorative flowers inside

We glue the flashlight to the center of the box

For a cardboard cover, cut out a square of 18.5 cm. Mark squares of 4 cm in the corners and cut off half from the corners, and then make an incision on the side

Bend along the lines and assemble the lid with glue. Decorate with ribbon and put on the box

You can make such a beautiful gift for Mother's Day with your own hands from ordinary cardboard and colored paper

The same surprise can be presented to your grandmother by using more photos to decorate the box. After all, what else can you give to loved ones if not fond memories.

Mom's treasures - the best DIY gift for mom

Each mother keeps things close to her heart: tags from the hospital, the first tooth, the first photo. And if you don't know what you can do with your own hands, except for a postcard and give it to your mom on Mother's Day, then we offer a master class on making a beautiful treasury.

Master Class:

It is rather difficult and time-consuming to draw a pattern for boxes, so it is better to print templates or redraw them from the monitor

According to the drawings, we cut out the details for the boxes: there will be 6 of them, of which 4 are small, 1 is large and the box is the base

Now, using a ruler with a non-writing pen, draw along the dotted lines. We pay special attention to the box-base, all lines must be parallel

Then we put glue on the "ears" and collect 4 small and 1 large boxes

On the side parts of the base we glue strips cut from thick cardboard - two of 18, 7x6, 7 cm and two of 12, 7x6, 7 cm

Now we collect and glue the base box, while the cardboard should ideally stand inside its walls

We glue the following part to the base, namely to the outside. We cut out a rectangle 18, 9x7 cm, draw a line in the center and cut the corners to it by 45 degrees

We decorate the outer walls of the box with lace

To decorate other boxes, we use scrap paper (it all depends on imagination)

You can also make eyelets for decoration from the ribbon

Print or write the names of the boxes on small leaves, that is, you can glue them with any decor

For the cardboard cover, we cut out two rectangles with dimensions of 14x20, 5 cm and 13, 7x20, 5 cm, as well as a spine - 20, 5x7 cm

We glue the details on a synthetic winterizer and cover them with cotton. Decorating the cover and endpaper. Mom's treasury is ready

If desired, you can make a jewelry box from thick cardboard. Master classes are simple, many ideas are presented on the Internet.

Gift for mom for 500 rubles from children 10-15 years old

It is not always possible to make a gift for Mother's Day with your own hands, so it is worth considering options for what you can give your mother for 500 rubles:

1. Kitchen stuff. You can put a wooden spoon, cocktail tubes, ice cream spoon and other kitchen utensils in the oven mitt. Tie everything up with a beautiful bow.
2. Mini pots. Today, it is not at all expensive to buy very miniature multi-colored pots and plant small sprouts of any plants in them.
3. Aromatic herbs for tea. Herbs are sold by weight, you can put together a whole collection in a box.
4. Scented candles. Not just a nice gift, but a real ritual with its own secrets. You can buy one large candle or several small ones.

6. Fragrant sachets. Presented as a bag with aromatic herbs. By the way, such a gift can be made by hand or bought ready-made.
7. Folding mirror. A gift that will be useful to any mother, especially since today such an accessory is presented in different designs.

If mom really loves to cook, then she can be presented with a beautiful notebook for writing down recipes.

Gift ideas from adult children

Unfortunately, not all children, even adults, have the opportunity to please their mother with a luxurious gift for Mother's Day. Therefore, it is worth considering all the options, including inexpensive ones, which can be presented to the closest person for a holiday.

1. Cosmetical tools. You can buy both a premium cosmetics set and affordable handmade soap sets. You can also donate a set of decorative cosmetics for SPA procedures at home or collect a basket with oils, foams and salts.
2. Books. A great gift for all times. You can choose a book depending on your mother's hobby, for example, cooking. Perhaps look for a book by her favorite author, or present a whole issue of collectible editions.
3. Sets for needlework. You can choose a gift for your mother based on her interests and hobbies. There are a lot of options here: painting by numbers, embroidery kits, for knitting, for soap making, for creating interior items in different techniques.

Don't give your mom a gift that would indicate her age, such as cosmetics for aging and aging skin.

Today there are other options for what you can give your mom for Mother's Day. But when choosing a gift, do not forget about her age. So, a young mother will definitely appreciate bright and creative gifts, and if she is of old age, then the gift should be appropriate.
