Cut your branch down to size for whatever vase you plan to use. If your branch is heavy, you may want to put stones, marbles or some other dense material into the base of the vase to keep it from toppling. Trace leaves onto various colors and patterns of paper. Cut out your leaves. Place branch into the vase. Let your hot glue gun heat up, then put small dabs of glue at the base of each leaf and attach it to the branch. Follow the branch&#8217;s natural outcroppings to determine your leaf placement and try to vary the colors as you fill each section of branch. Remove any excess strings of hot glue once it has dried.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3182\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maggwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/underbed-storage-box-clothes.jpg\" alt=\"underbed-storage-box-clothes\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maggwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/underbed-storage-box-clothes.jpg 345w, https:\/\/www.maggwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/underbed-storage-box-clothes-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3182\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maggwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/underbed-storage-box-clothes.jpg\" alt=\"underbed-storage-box-clothes\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maggwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/underbed-storage-box-clothes.jpg 345w, https:\/\/www.maggwire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/underbed-storage-box-clothes-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h3><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maggwire.com\/under-bed-storage-box\/\">Handmade Cedar-Lined Under-Bed Storage Box<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Fall is here at last.

The first step, decide if you are preparing a decadent meal like BBC Good Food\u2019s smoked salmon with mimosas or a lighter meal like homemade juice, fruit salad and a veggie omelet courtesy of Martha Stewart\u2019s perfect omelet recipe. Next task, make sure you have all the ingredients you need and stock up on anything you may be missing. On Mother\u2019s Day, wake up early, prepare breakfast and serve it on a breakfast tray so your mom can eat and enjoy comfortably. For an extra special touch, place a few freshly cut flowers along with a small family photo on the breakfast tray.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/littleredwindow.com\/15-diy-spa-projects-and-crafts\/\">Spa Day by Cassie:<\/a><\/h3>\n<figure style=\"width: 556px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/littleredwindow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/spa_projects_crafts_02_littleredwindow-01.jpg\" alt=\"15 DIY Spa Projects and Crafts\" width=\"556\" height=\"697\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/littleredwindow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/spa_projects_crafts_02_littleredwindow-01.jpg\" alt=\"15 DIY Spa Projects and Crafts\" width=\"556\" height=\"697\" \/><\/noscript> 15 DIY Spa Projects and Crafts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Treat mom to some rest, relaxation, and TLC with a DIY spa day. It\u2019s important to prepare all of your spa treatments before the big day to keep things stress-free. After breakfast, set up a spa station complete with lavender soy candles and spa music in your living room or even on the patio if the weather permits. Consider pampering mom with the following gifts:<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/adelightfulhome.com\/homemade-moisturizing-body-scrub\/\">Homemade Body Scrub by Stacy Karen:<\/a><\/h3>\n<figure style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/adelightfulhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/DIY-Moisturizing-Body-Scrub.jpg\" alt=\"HOMEMADE MOISTURIZING BODY SCRUB\" width=\"500\" height=\"668\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/adelightfulhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/DIY-Moisturizing-Body-Scrub.jpg\" alt=\"HOMEMADE MOISTURIZING BODY SCRUB\" width=\"500\" height=\"668\" \/><\/noscript> HOMEMADE MOISTURIZING BODY SCRUB<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Soak mom\u2019s feet in a large tub or foot spa and have her use this homemade body scrub. To create the invigorating scrub, combine 1\/2 cup of shea butter, 3 TBSP Olive Oil, 3 TBSP\u00a0Coconut Oil\u00a0(melted, but not hot), 1\/2 cup Brown Sugar. If you wish, you can add the desired amount of lemon zest for color and fragrance, place in a container, label, and use.<\/p>\n<h3>Homemade Brightening Face Mask:<\/h3>\n<p>In a bowl, combine two tablespoons of sour cream, two tablespoons of honey and one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice. Apply on clean face and let sit for twenty minutes. Rinse with lukewarm water followed by a splash of fresh water. We recommend making this around the time of use to keep it as fresh as possible.<\/p>\n<h3>DIY Cooling Coconut Body Lotion:<\/h3>\n<p>All you need for this luscious body cream is coconut oil, aloe vera gel, essential oils and a container with a lid. Whip the coconut oil until solid (you can also refrigerate to help solidify) and then mix it with an electric beater for 6-9 minutes or until fluffy.\u00a0 Next, add a few drops of your favorite essential oils (think lavender, rose, etc.) and a tablespoon or more of aloe vera gel. Place in your container, label appropriately and voila.<\/p>\n<h3>Movie Night:<\/h3>\n<p>Spend some bonding time together with a stay-in movie night. Rather than buying a new movie, consider watching your mom\u2019s favorite flick. You can also get creative and place handmade \u201cmovie tickets\u201d in your Mother\u2019s Day card. Don\u2019t forget to have treats such as popcorn, cookies and her favorite candy on-hand.<\/p>\n<h3>Coupon Book:<\/h3>\n<p>If you are still stumped on what to give mom this Mother\u2019s Day, we recommend going with an \u201cI Owe You\u201d coupon book. You can create custom coupons for chores, favors, and treats that your mom can redeem at a later time. She will get a kick out of the various freebies promised, and you will feel good helping her when she needs an extra hand.<\/p>\n<h3>DIY Vases &amp; Planters For Mother&#8217;s Day:<\/h3>\n<p>We love the idea of recycling old fashioned glass bottles and cans by turning them into vases and planters. Try the following:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bottle Vase:<\/strong> Collect a few glass bottles of your choice, wash them inside and out and let dry. Use a fast-drying spray paint of your color choice and apply directly to bottle, coating evenly. Don\u2019t forget to spray paint the bottom of your bottles when they are ready to be dried upside down. Helpful Tip: Insert a sturdy stick into the mouth of the bottle to allow the underside to dry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can Planter:<\/strong> Using a hammer and nail, poke a few holes in the bottom of your selected recycled cans. Use acrylic paint or fast-drying spray paint (we vote for a few fun, vibrant colors) to cover them evenly on all sides. Once you\u2019ve allowed the cans to dry thoroughly, place your flower seeds or seedlings in the new planter with some soil and water as needed. Be careful of where you put your cans, as the holes will allow excess water to drip out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mother\u2019s Day will be here before we know it.
