In this article we will look at at 5 ideas for personalized Mother’s Day gifts. After years of giving all kinds of flowers to mom, you’ve probably decided to embark on a quest to find an idea for a gift that does her justice. Great! No one likes gifts that are bought in a hurry and do not reflect their own interests. But mom is still mom, so she will never tell you that a gift is not to her liking, but maybe for once she would like to receive something different than the usual flowers and plants.
In our experience, the best gifts are those made on the basis of specific requests, perhaps said over a normal dinner without giving too much thought to it. So listen to your mom carefully and ask yourself what she really needs, so as to get a wow effect once she unwraps the gift and says, “ah, so you were listening to me that time!”
Now the gift has to be a special one that reflects her interests and amazes her properly. There is only one mom and therefore the gift must be super! Since the holiday is steadily approaching, let’s not waste any more time and go over the 5 personalized Mother’s Day gifts proposed by MysterU, so that you can organize your gift in time once you have made the choice.
Personalized Mother’s Day Gifts
Here are our 5 original ideas for amazing personalized Mother’s Day gifts:
1. MysterU
Of course, our first idea for personalized Mother’s Day gifts cannot be anything else. We propose a gift that only your mom has surely never heard of, and that’s what will make it special.
But let’s take a step back. What is MysterU? If you have ever heard of an escape room, then you’re on the right track. The idea comes from there, but it is developed entirely online. Basically, the goal is to solve a case from your choice of The Cook, The Black Tulip or Ghosts, by finding the various solutions to the clues, which are scattered around the web! Who knows, maybe while browsing online you always had your eye on our clues without ever paying attention to them!
You may be thinking that your mom isn’t tech-savvy enough to go through such an experience and would only end up getting nervous. Fear not! the beauty of this experience is that you will be there to help her! The gift is meant to be an opportunity to spend some time together and have fun. What better gift could there be than the giving of one’s time?
If you, too, had a mom who prided herself on being a kind of investigator, because nothing could be hidden from her, you can try to tease her in this respect, perhaps by writing a note to include in the gift that says, “Let’s see if you can solve this!”
In case you want to better understand what a MysterU case is, you can check this out. Now all you have to do is go through our 3 cases and figure out which one best fits your and your mom’s needs! Pop into our store here.
2. A Stitched Canvas
If we didn’t convince you with the first option, we would be sorry because we were aiming for it so much. But let’s continue with our article on personalized Mother’s Day gifts anyway.
In the event that you are a person with a modicum of manual dexterity, here is a great idea that you probably never thought of, but that will surely please your mom! Go for a canvas sewn with thread!
All you need to do is buy a canvas of the size you prefer, then think of the image to represent (it could be something that represents you such as a stylized photo of you, a large hand together with a small one, a particular phrase or even an interest of his or her) and afterwards print or draw on a sheet of paper what you will have come up with. After that, you need to attach the printed or drawn sheet to the canvas.
A little advice: It’s best if the design is not too complex and follows lines. In fact, afterwards, you will only have to take needle and thread and sew sheet and canvas following the lines already demarcated by the drawing. When you’re done, remove the sheet and you’re done! To make the picture a little more dynamic and colourful, you could also colour half the canvas before you start sewing.
3. Drawing On Canvas
Don’t feel like sewing? No problem! A great idea might be to find a nice tutorial for making a drawing on canvas with tempera. It doesn’t have to be something complicated. As we mentioned earlier, a stylized drawing representing you, an interest of yours or something you have in common is enough. To make it more original you can add a sentence or a quote.
There is no need to be afraid of trying your hand at something like this; it’s simpler than you think! Once you have found a good tutorial with an image from which you need to change maybe just a few details, you can just follow the steps step by step. Also, canvases, especially small ones, are relatively cheap, so even if you get it wrong, you can always buy another one.
4. A Customized Mug or Goblet
A mom who likes to indulge in a glass of beer or a glass of wine in the evening? With this gift, she can do so from now on by looking at the dedication you will have engraved on the glass. The sites on which to request these kinds of gifts are many, and all you need to do is come up with a short catchphrase that best describes your mom.
5. A Personalized Cake
As our last suggestion for personalized Mother’s Day gifts, we suggest a cake with a nice inscription or even a photo of you and your mom. Be sure to get it in her favorite flavor and not yours! You can have it made at your local bakery or cake shop or you can make it yourself. It’s up to you whether or not you are sure of the result. Either way, Mom will appreciate it, but if it also tastes good all the better!
