7) Coasters
If your mom is always urging you to put your glass on a coaster, rather than the tabletop, then this is for you!

A great cheap idea for this, is to buy 4×4 bathroom or backsplash tile then cover in a great medium weight fabric. Use a glue gun to attach the fabric on the underside, being careful not to overlap.
8) Colorful and sparkly kitchen utensils
Whether your mom loves to cook or not, there’s nothing wrong with jazzed up kitchen utensils. Simply dip the handle halfway in some colorful paint and let dry. You could even spray adhesive on half of the handle and roll it in glitter. This can also be a fun projects for the tools of a mom who loves to garden!
9) Framed monogram art
