When it comes to Mother’s Day, flowers like carnations are the classic choice! Their beauty and softness help express our gratitude.
Let’s create a soft and beautiful mascot inspired by those flowers to convey our feelings.
To make it, pack paper clay into a case, then insert tissue paper flowers into it.
It’s recommended to adjust the type of paper clay and decorations depending on the colors of tissue paper you use.
Keep a sense of unity as a mascot in mind while you create it.
Acrylic Plaque of AppreciationNEW!
@miro_ouchiphoto.diy A Mother’s Day gift you’ll want to display 🥰 This Mother’s Day, let’s give a “handmade gift you’ll want to show off” 🎁 I only realized it after becoming a mother myself 💡 just how amazing moms are. I’m the youngest and I’ve always relied on my mom so much in life (still do, to be honest. lol). Giving birth and raising a child—how hard it is, and how precious… I want to gently shape my gratitude and send it to her. It’s kind of embarrassing to say it out loud, and my mom always says, “I don’t need anything—spend your money on the kids.” 🤱 It doesn’t have to be an over-the-top present—just something that makes her smile whenever it catches her eye 🥹 It’s compact, so it won’t get in the way when displayed 🥰 I’m going to put my heart into making that kind of gift ♡ What are you all planning to give?? Tell me in the comments 📝 By the way, I also gave her a hat 👒 (Already gifted 🎁) [Items used] ・Acrylic block (6×9.5 cm) ⇨ DAISO JAN 4550480 267258 ・Acrylic magnet frame ⇨ Watts 300-yen item JAN 4978929355944 This is the same item I used for the acrylic name plaque posted on 1/21. You can buy from Watts online too ♡ ※I made two template sizes: DAISO size and Watts size 🥰 If you want the template, check the comments ✏️#Mother'sDayGiftHandmade GiftsPetit gift#Mother's Day#100-yen shop DIY#100-yen shop arrangement

Mother’s Day is a time to express your everyday gratitude to your mom, so how about conveying your feelings with a three-dimensional thank-you certificate? With a simple process of sandwiching a photo or a thank-you template between acrylic blocks, you can create a beautiful, easy-to-display piece.
Since you’re essentially turning a flat design into a three-dimensional one with acrylic, making that flat design look beautiful is the most important part.
Adding a handwritten message to the printed piece may enhance the handmade feel and further emphasize your appreciation.
Stylish case with photoNEW!
@miro_ouchiphoto.diy A Mother’s Day gift that will shine in your interior decor 🥰 Mother’s Day is finally this weekend! The post is last-minute, but it’s super easy, and you can get all the materials at the 100-yen shop, so there’s still plenty of time from now 🌸 How about gifting it with some sweets and putting in a photo of your mom or the grandkids? By the way, my mom loves Kaki no Tane 😅 I thought it’d be fun to put in her favorite snack, so I made it ✌️ [Items used] • Bought at DAISO ★ Perfume-shaped gift box JAN 4965534337311 I’ve seen this case at Seria too!

Photos are precious for preserving memories in a tangible form.
Let’s arrange photos in a case and display them so they look even more beautiful.
First, cut the photo to fit the size of the case and attach it to the inside.
Then, just add floral motifs or other decorations inside the case to finish.
If the surface of the case and the photo are exactly the same size, the back will be hidden, so it’s best to choose a photo size and case shape that allow the background to show through.
Instead of only filling it with floral motifs for decoration, arranging sweets as a gift could be an interesting option too.
candy bouquetNEW!
Visually striking and popular as an edible gift, this is a handmade item.
Use masking tape to attach candies to paper straws.
Make two of the same kind.
Put small treats into plastic bags, pre-wrap them with ribbons or similar, and then attach them to the straws.
If you also prepare heart-shaped balloons or artificial flowers, bundle everything together with two rubber bands.
Finally, wrap it with your choice of wrapping paper and wired ribbon, secure it with one rubber band, and it’s done.
The process is fun to make, and the handmade touch conveys a warm, personal feeling.
Carnation cakeNEW!
Here’s an introduction to a dessert that’s easy to make and looks gorgeous! First, put store-bought cookies in a resealable plastic bag and crush them finely, then mix with butter.
Press the mixture into a mold and flatten it with your hand or the bottom of a glass to form the crust.
Next, to prepare the no-bake cheesecake, mix cream cheese with strawberries and granulated sugar to make the cheesecake filling.
Line the sides of the mold with sliced strawberries, then pour in the cheesecake mixture.
For the finishing touch, make chocolate ruffles and a red nappage glaze; pour the glaze over the top and decorate with the ruffles to create a three-dimensional, festive cake that resembles a carnation.
It’s easy to make, looks stunning, and is perfect as a gift.
Sabon GemNEW!
It’s about giving soaps packed with colorful motifs as a gift so people can find a bit of joy in their daily lives.
First, to make the colorful motifs, mix food coloring into melted soap, let it set, then cut out shapes with a mold.
Create a variety of shapes.
Next, arrange those motifs densely inside transparent soap, let it set, and slice to finish.
Since the look suffers if the motifs end up unevenly positioned, how you set them in place is an important point.
Straw bead decorationNEW!
@user7787282157810 You can make it with straws! Mother’s Day gift craft The iron beads that kids love can be easily made with straws!! Display pieces are nice, but… when Mom uses something a child worked hard to make, it makes the child happy, and for Mom it becomes the best treasure. Materials • About 2 straws (wide diameter: about 1.2 cm) *Thick straws for tapioca/boba and smoothies are easier to use • Parchment paper • Construction paper (quarter of an 8-cut sheet) • Double-sided tape • Pen • Iron • Ironing board or quilted fabric (to protect the table from scorching) Optional… • Jute twine • Ribbon • Name tag made with a label maker Details • Set the iron to high heat. • Since it’s hard to fit the last straw piece in, lightly flatten the straw to insert it. • The video irons only the front, but ironing the back too makes it sturdier. • If you edge the perimeter with jute twine or chunky yarn, the straws are less likely to tip over. (Remove it before ironing.) *Try all sorts of shapes like circles, squares, stars, etc. Caution • Pieces can fly when cutting straws—be careful not to get them in your eyes. • Always use the iron together with an adult, or have an adult do it. If you tried making it, please let me know by DM. Show me everyone’s creations! Feel free to ask questions or leave a comment!!

You can make Perler bead-style crafts with drinking straws! First, draw a picture on construction paper and apply double-sided tape.
After peeling off the tape backing, cut straws in your favorite colors into pieces about 1 cm long.
Arrange them over the drawing, place a sheet of parchment paper on top, and iron.
Once it cools, peel off the parchment paper and decorate with a ribbon or other embellishments to finish! A key point is that by playing with the colors and placement of the “beads,” you can freely express an original design.
Try incorporating this as a Mother’s Day gift.
Charm pouchNEW!
@n.annlee321 Perfect as a Mother’s Day gift, too 🥰🎁✨ParentingChildcareChildcare#HandmadeToysHandmade#100-yen-shop#100-yen shop DIYscrap materialRemake

How about a practical and cute charm pouch? Cut a milk carton into a long, narrow strip to your preferred size, and round off one of the corners.
After peeling off the film from the carton, use double-sided tape to attach it to a fabric scrap and trim off the excess.
Fold it, then make holes with an awl.
Make a hole on the lower side as well, insert a resin part on one side, and stick double-sided tape onto the white surface.
Lightly attach it to the fabric scrap, then trim about 3 mm.
Fold the edges, stick them down, expose the button post, and attach the other button part on the opposite side.
Decorate it cutely with lace or beads, and it’s complete!
necklaceNEW!
Necklaces are a classic choice for gifting accessories.
They’re also easy to incorporate into everyday life, so they’re likely to be well received.
Let’s handcraft such a necklace to express daily gratitude and more.
The process is simple—attach a charm to the end of a chain—so choosing the charm is key.
Think from various angles: a color that suits the recipient, a motif that matches the season or timing of the gift, and so on.
The overall impression also changes with the chain length and the size of the charm, so your sense of style will be tested there too.
Herbarium ballpoint penNEW!
This is a practical yet beautiful item that combines a ballpoint pen with a herbarium.
Since you can freely create the herbarium section, it might be perfect as a gift infused with your own sense of style.
You use a ballpoint pen designed to incorporate a herbarium, and create the herbarium freely with these parts.
You could use beads that match the color of the pen body, or craft it in colors that evoke the person you’re giving it to—there are many directions you can take.
