Cute Homemade Mother’s Day Gifts to Make

When I was invited to a Mother’s Day tea party and given a paper bonnet, I also received a sweet card made with a scrubby sponge from a dollar store.

While the card has a printed piece of paper inside, bearing the words of a little Mother’s Day poem, the outside has an orange scrubbing sponge attached with a gold brad. Lira had drawn the stem and leaves for the “flower.”

The card reads:

To make a Mother’s Day gift fantastic,

I drew the stem and leaves for this flower of plastic.

I give it to Mom with this special wish,

May it help you scrub each pot and each dish.

Honestly, it is very cute but I think I would rather it not mention scrubbing the dishes. Instead, how about a poem that says:

I made this special flower to give to you today.

I drew the stem and petals as I planned what I would say.

Mom, you make my life fantastic with your very special way.

So, with love, I wish for you to have an awesome Mother’s Day.
