Mother's Day Gifts for Grandparents

[doglover31]

I'm going to follow this for ideas

For Christmas I did salt dough ornaments, that was pretty easy. And did a footprint or a handprint for the grandparents. They loved it.

I have been meaning to look on Pinterest for ideas.

Aw me too doglover31, I did the salt dough ornaments too with the footprint! I did them in the shape of a heart with her footprint, painted the hearts red and did silver writing for the name and the foot, they were a big hit!

I need an idea too, thanks for posting anniebn

I think we're going to attempt to get a picture of all 3 grandkids together for my mom (my sister and her kids live overseas so it's rare for everyone to be in the same place at once). Getting a 2yo, 7mo, and 6mo in the same place and happy, holding still, and looking in the general direction of the camera will be a piece of cake, right? Following for backup ideas when this crashes and burns...

...Also I have no idea what to get MIL. So I am no help to you at all. Pinterest?

Edit: we did the salt dough footprints at Christmas. They were a huge hit with all the grands/great-grands. And we made one for ourselves...but it only has four toes. Pinterest fail.
