Mother’s Day is here but don’t let the pandemic stand in the way of showing your mother how special she is. Dinners out may not be possible, but there are a million other ways in which you can make your mom feel cherished, the way she deserves to be!
Get started with Mother’s Day celebrations with these five unique tips to honour the important women, be it your mom or your grandma, in your life!
Florals for the flower lover
The mom who doesn’t love flowers is rare. Spoil your mom with some floral additions for the home. Think cheerful flower-shaped pillow cushions for the sofa, soft bolsters with flower prints or even a bold flower-themed wallpaper for an accent wall.
Bring her saplings and unique plants for the garden that’s her pride and joy. If you are up for some DIY, you can even paint some small terracotta pots and give her a herb set.
Art for the creative moms
Personalised family collages and stylishly framed photos of different family members would be perfect for the art-loving moms out there. Is she an avid photographer or a painter? Frame or make posters out of some of the photos she has clicked or her paintings and drawings.
Ideas for the food-lovers and chefs
Moms make the best food. Period. Why not liven up the kitchen and dining decor in honour of her culinary skills? Compile some of her recipes that you have loved over the years into a hardbound book. Throw in a stand to prop it up on the kitchen counter too.
Consider graceful tableware like elegant tablecloths, napkins, and glass sets. You could even take some of the old plates with bright patterns and display them on the wall.
For moms who love handicrafts and local crafts
Wicker baskets for storage, handmade scented candles, Warli paintings, and Jaipur block print wall hangings are just some of the items you can give your craft-loving mom.
Consider some DIY too by converting old silk sarees into drapes or wall hangings. Heavily brocaded saris or ones with extensive gold zari work can be repurposed into framed wall art or can make for some stunning cushion covers!
