Mother's Day Gifts

This year I went the homemade route for Mother's Day. I know I know....it's like I'm 6 years old all over again! I decided I would stick with the "Office" theme and make some things for my mom's back office space at the house. Enjoy!!


Goodwill frames painted yellow.
Fabric instead of pictures.

Old brass lamp from Goodwill - $3
Gave it a coat of metal primer and a a coat of white spray paint.
Had an extra lamp shade laying around so I used some tacky spray and the same fabric to keep 
the theme going! Brand new lamp!!!!

Got an old frame at a flee market store for $5.
Gave it a coat of teal and attached some cork board!!


This was made from scratch!!
Cut some wood to size, attached chicken wire to the back with a staple gun
and found some cute clothespins and yellow flowers at Michael's!!

Got this Mason jar at Goodwill. Poured some paint inside and swirled it around a bit so it covered the whole jar. Then let it sit over night upside down on a paper plate. Added some more fabric and found those cute pencils at Michael's for $1!! Pencil holder!

Everything when I was done. Can't wait to see if mom's put everything in it's place yet.
If not, guess what I'll be doing this weekend?!?! ;)
