Hey Ladies! I’m in Boise, ID today as my Great-Grandmother passed away last week at the amazing age of 98. Her funeral is more of a celebration of her life. Considering she’s been wanting to join her loved ones who have long since passed, we are very happy for her. She is now in a lovely place surrounded by all the people she loves.
Today’s post is going to have to be quick as I’m in the hotel room trying to get ready for the viewing. I think it’s appropriate that today’s post is on handmade Mother’s Day gifts. I come from a long line of talented and frugal women. They would have appreciated today’s post.
Holy Cow! Mitzi featured such an impressive Mother’s Day gift! It’s an embellished jewelry box tin with a matching card. There is also beautiful beaded bracelet that corresponds to a poem that you can download! {{Fabulous}}
Crafting Chicks has some crazy fun gift ideas! Check out her skinny chipboard album and block puzzle. {{giddy}}
Cakie’s man hooked her up with the most fabulous Mother’s Day card that her daughter jumped out of. Now that’s love. I would die if my man actually made something for me. ๐

pair that beautiful flowers to an original heart-felt poem, perhaps. ah, now that is a heart warming gift. ๐
That all natural green cleaning supply basket is such a fun and useful gift! It’s so put together looking and yet doesn’t require me to craft anything so it’s good for last minute!
So sorry for your loss but what a wonderfully long life your great grandmother had. I'll thrilled to find this great site (via Twitter!). Don't have a blog but I do have a couple of online shops. One is the Etsy shop shown below & the other is http://www.mwgrantdesigns.com
