"A man's work is from sun to sun, but a mother's work is never done." The author of this bit of verse is unknown, but a truer thing was never said! This year show your Mom, or for that matter, any mom -- friend, sister, grandmother, that she is appreciated with one of these crafty creations. I've combed the Internet and found some real gems:

Let's start with cards. Show Mom that you're her #1 fan with a Handmade Photo Card, Stamped Ribbon Card or this lovely Distressed Daisy Card.

As another sage person (probably a Mom) once said, "A woman can never have too many purses." Well said! Once you've made your first purse, you'll be hooked! Stylishly outfit a Mom you know with this gorgeous Silk Pleated Purse, Photo Cigar Box Purse or Removable Flower Tote

             

Of course, the perfect companion to a new purse is sparkly new jewelry. Truly who doesn't love receiving beautiful, handmade trinkets. I found this cute Button Bracelet on the Creative Kismet blog, she was even kind enough to do a tutorial for it. Even if you're new to jewelry-making, you can easily follow her step-by-step photos. Create this Photo Pendant Necklace for the family-centric Mom in your life to show off her favorite photo.
