Mother’s Day is just around the corner – but before you call up your favorite flower shop, we’ve got a word of advice for you. If there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s that moms love gifts that come from the heart and were made by your own two hands (just try and get your old finger paints back.)
DIY runs in our veins, and those few moments when we’re not working on the world’s best DIY website builder, we love finding creative ways of making beautiful things. And Mother’s Day provides the perfect excuse to lay some newspaper down and create some awesome crafts. But everyone’s got start somewhere. The Wix team headed over to the arts & crafts mecca (Pinterest, of course) and found these stunning craft projects that are sure to show mom you care.

Personalized Coasters
