I’m not sure there’s anything moms like looking at more than photos of the people they love (except maybe the kitchen when someone else has just cleaned it!). Since Mother’s Day is on it’s way, I’ve rounded up 20 fantastic DIY photo gift ideas – gift ideas made using photos of special people, places, or things. All of these are sure to delight Mom, but they’d also make great gifts for dads, grandparents, or anyone else. Additionally, since photos are so cheap to print and these gifts are all DIY options, they’re all pretty inexpensive.
1. These photo coasters from Beauty and Bedlam can be made for only $1 a set if you have a few common supplies on hand:

2. Use a photo to personalize a clock with this tutorial from Rosy Red Buttons – her example uses an engagement photo, but a family photo or picture of children or grandchildren would work just as well.
3. This circular “family tree” print from Cactus & Olive is not only beautiful, it’s a meaningful keepsake. Use Photoshop to make one of your own, or purchase a custom design.
4. I think this simple photo display from Natalme is simply lovely and would make a great gift – the recipient can easily switch out photos to keep it current.
5. A simple wood box and an accordian folded card stock make a great home for a pretty pull-out photo album. Combine photos of kids and notes or drawing from the children for an extra special gift. From It’s Always Autumn.

Mother’s day is coming up and I am so excited about the new present I have ordered for my mum. Luna & Stella’s new constellation stacking rings, with the 8-pointed and 4-pointed birthstone rings. I’ve ordered three rings to represent the birthdays of me and my two sisters. The shop was actually recommended to me by a friend and I’m so happy he told me about it. Look no further for mothers’ day gifts: http://www.lunaandstella.com/
Photo gifts are such a lovely way of showing someone that you appreciate them! I love getting photo gifts, no matter what the occassion 🙂
I am totally hooked on photos and I can’t wait to try some of these great ideas!
Also, it is really ideal to fit sneakers through the latter
part of the day simply just for the reason that the ft have a tendency of enlarging a little bit during the total day.
In summer light skin tones should stick to tan coloured boots with
bare legs as these will be more flattering. Some materials like Gore-tex
gives snow boots a reliable and water-proof quality in which surely no liquid will slip inside.
