Mother's day is around the corner and I hope you are not leaving the gift shopping for the last minute. Finding the right gift for mother's day is not always an easy task. We often want something personal and thoughtful that sends a specific message, but after a few years a lot of creativity is needed for finding unique gifts that do not blow up your budget. If you find yourself in the same last minute situation you were last year on mother's day, these gift ideas may just save mother's day for you.
Gift of Time 花一整天陪媽媽做她喜歡的事情
Moms just want to spend time with their children so make it a Mother-Daughter/Son day, spend the whole day with her on her terms. Do the things she likes doing and give her the royal treatment.
Home Video 收集視頻把它們做成一個家庭短片，作為禮物送給媽媽
Take your family videos and put together a short home video, a tribute to mom. This can be a little time consuming but can make a great frugal gift and she can enjoy it whenever she misses you. Although it may require a little effort, the process can be a lot of fun and the end result is often priceless.
Mom Mix 收集媽媽喜歡聽的歌，做一張混音專輯給媽媽
Make a CD for her, a collection of all the songs that remind her of you and you growing up. You may have a song you used to sing when driving to school or going to bed, think back and you'll be surprised with the result.
Write a Letter 給媽媽寫一封信，寫下你和媽媽相處的所有甜蜜的回憶以及她為你做的所有的事情
Write a letter instead of a card, write about all the good memories you have with her and all the things she has done for you. I don't mean type, but rather handwritten note the old-fashioned way with a pen and paper.
Flowers 送媽媽一束你親手種的花
Flowers can be tricky, you can easily spend a lot of money on it. if you have flowers in your garden or can handpick them this can be a great gift.
Coupons 制作“為媽媽做家務(wù)”的優(yōu)惠券
When I was younger my brother and I made a coupon booklet for my mother it included things like "Wash dishes for the day", "Vacuum for the week", etc., just chores around the house. You have to be prepared to honor the coupons at anytime otherwise it won't work.
Digital Photo show 上傳一些照片做成動態(tài)的照片秀
You can upload photos and create nice slide shows. The basic service is free with Smilebox.
Manicure and/or Pedicure 讓專業(yè)醫(yī)師為媽媽修手指甲或者腳趾甲
Costs around $20-$30 and lasts for 2-3 weeks. Although, this may not be a very personal gift I am sure all mothers would appreciate a day of being papered.
Dinner 為媽媽做一頓晚餐
Make a frugal dinner and invite her over or you can surprise her and take it over to her house, just don't leave a mess behind for her to clean up.
