If there is one thing that all mothers hold dear to their hearts, it’s memories. With Mother’s Day coming up, you’re probably looking for some gift inspiration and if the kids can make it even better am I right? – these photo gift ideas will hit the mark.

1. Water Color Creations. Is there a special black and white photo that you have lying around that you know your mother would love? Give a fond memory an extra-special touch by painting it with watercolors and placing it in a beautiful frame.
2. Photo Coasters. This is a photo gift that you can DIY or you can get a professional printer to assist you. Coasters are something that everyone has in their home so why not turn them into a personalized gift?
3. Photo Collage Message. Use medium-density fiberboard to create words such as Love or Joy, paint the letters a color of your choice and turn one of the letters into a photo collage. This way, mom can come home to a special message as well as photos of the people she loves.
4. Repurposed Book Cover. Book covers are another creative way to display your favorite memories. Use a craft knife to cut a small rectangle into the middle of the cover and a few of the pages behind it. Secure the pages to each other and the cover of the book before adding a photo to the front using double-stick tape.
5. Photo To-Do Board. Is mom always planning and on the go? Why not give her a new to-do board that includes photos of the people in her life. It’s sure to make her smile even when the day gets busy.
6. Scrapbook Photo Frame. If you love scrapbooking, create a page of your own design inside a metal frame. Attach a bright ribbon to the top of the frame so that mom can hang it anywhere she wants to.
7. Photo Card. Instead of going the traditional route and buying a card, make a photo-inspired card yourself. Find a beautiful vintage photo of mom that you can use to create a unique mother’s day card that she won’t forget.

If you don’t have any recent photos with your mother, now would be the perfect time to book a custom photo session.
