Since Mother’s day is coming up, I’ve been thinking about what gift I could give to my mom (even though she says she doesn’t need anything).

I always feel like I’m really bad with gifts since I struggle to pick something. But after thinking about it, I’ve decided to make something this year instead. So naturally, I ended up searching online for easy DIY gifts I could make.

DIY Gifts That Everyone Will Love

Now, these gifts aren’t specifically for Mother’s day though, you could make them for someone’s birthday, as a housewarming gift, or any other occasion. You get the idea.

What I really love about DIY gifts is that they are so much more personal and special because you make them yourself. And the ones I found for you below are all really cute and useful too.

For the full instructions on how to make any of the DIY gifts listed below, please click on the link underneath each image.

1. Sharpie Dot DIY Flower Pots
