Hey kids! Still need a Mother’s Day gift? Well here are 2 Mother’s Day gift craft projects to make for your moms.

Make a Tray for Mother’s Day
Using Papier Mache technique, recycle a small picture frame to make an attractive tray that will be just the right size to keep small items organized on mom’s vanity.

Butterfly Mobile
Make this butterfly mobile with a mounted base. Use your imagination to create a fantasy butterfly, as we did, or study photos of butterflies to learn how to make more realistic insects.

National Barbecue Month / National Hamburger Month
Yeah Baby! Its two, two holidays in one this month! Its meat and fire! How much more American can you get?

Its still early in the month and you’ve got time to join in the celebration. Its not quite summer yet, but why wait? Its been beautiful outside. So clean out last years grease, wipe away winter’s spider webs, fill up the propane tank or get some charcoal. And don’t forget the tasty, tasty meat products.

Come on baby light my fire and lets start grilling!
