#FVMDGG Mother's Day DIY Gift Ideas

Some of the best gifts a mother can get are the ones made from love. When I was a little girl, I always made my mother a card. Personalizing it to her and how I felt about her. When I became a mom, I soon learned how much that sort of gift can mean. 
I've asked a bunch of wonderful bloggers to help me out and bring you a bunch of last minutes ideas that you, (dads, babysitters, and such), can make with the kids to give mom a special gift from the heart.


1. Give her some tasty tea in a mug. Show her you want her to sit back and relax.

2. Give her a beautiful frame to hold her family memories.

3. Give her products to pamper herself with.

4. Some more pamper products. Mom can never be pampered enough!

5. How about you give her your love?

6. Show her all the reasons you care.

7. Make mom a signature scent.

8. Give her a vase to hold her flowers.

9. Make her artwork that she can admire.

    I like the idea of tea and a moment to relax. Maybe vacuum for her or do some of her other chores and give her a break!

    Interesting selections. My mother doesn't like Mother's Day. She complains if I get her anything.

    Homemade gifts are the best, I always encouraged my children to make rather than buy. I appreciated the hard work they put in to the gifts so much more than any $4.00 and up card.

AVAILABLE FEBRUARY 5TH!
RATED PG
86 minutes
AMAZON US

Illumination and Universal Pictures present The Grinch, based on Dr. Seuss' beloved classic. The Grinch tells the story of a cynical grump who goes on a mission to steal Christmas, only to have his heart changed by a young girl’s generous spirit. Funny, heartwarming and visually stunning, The Grinch is fun for the whole family!



REVIEW:
Such great animation!
There was always something going on in this movie. Even though it was a story I have seen played out a million times and a million different ways, they all are different too. This had more of a story. It was very magical and is definitely fun for the whole family.
Want to point out, Max, the dog, stole the show for me. He is so adorable, even if animation. Such a good dog.
This is one of those Christmas movies that you really can enjoy all year round. It has enough laughs, fun and morals to be played anytime. Plus there is nothing wrong with Christmas cheer in February.


4.5/5

#ChristmasInJuly #Win A Onesie Or Pajamas Of Your Choice! (US/CDN)

The most wonderful time of the year is back, (a little early)! It's Christmas in July!! You too can celebrate with a wonderful gift right here. UglyChristmasSweater.com has the funniest, traditional and branded goodies on the planet! Here is a sneak peek at a couple of things I personally love on their site.

Last year, I reviewed one of the sweaters. You can view that post here. It is easily my favorite holiday sweater. It's so warm and I love the quality of it. This year, I was asked if I wanted a onesie or pajamas to check out. You know I had to jump at the chance, knowing what great quality clothing they have.

I got the Grinch on my onesie! I got an extra large size, and before you go crazy knowing that is big for me, I don't like my pjs to be tight and constricting. I always go a size up on my night clothes. I must have been traumatized in a past life.... These Grinch pajamas are soooooo soft and comfortable. The best part is that it's A/C season so I can actually wher…
