DIY Mother’s Day card with buttons
Here’s a great Mother’s Day craft idea for children: Create a card by drawing a heart shape on cardstock and decorating it with buttons of different colors. This project is ideal for using extra buttons you have at home. Add a sweet message (parents can help younger children with writing), and don’t forget to have the kids add their signatures to complete the card.
Footprint Butterfly Pot
Create a meaningful and practical gift by turning your little one’s footprints into a butterfly design on a plant container. This craft is perfect for mothers who enjoy indoor plants. You’ll need a basic plant pot, white paint plus your choice of colors (such as purple and green as shown), and a permanent marker to complete the project.
Start by applying white paint to the pot and allow it to dry completely. Next, cover your infant’s feet with purple and green paint (or your preferred colors). Press the painted feet against the pot to create butterfly wing patterns. Draw the butterfly’s body using a Sharpie marker, or if you’re confident in your artistic skills, you can paint it. Remember: For indoor use, the pot will be fine as is, but if you plan to place it outside, apply a protective sealant over the paint.
