On a tight budget? Don't worry I've got you covered look for the $ sign for tips! Here are 5 creative ideas for Mother's Day.

1. Water balloon fight

Fill the balloons with water and tie them. Then write something special about mom, a favorite moment, or why your thankful for her on the balloons with a sharpie. Place the balloons in a bucket to give mom and have her read the sayings then throw them at the person who wrote it.
Water balloon toss
If you want to have a water balloon toss have the person who wrote the saying toss it to mom. Then after she reads the saying she tosses it back. Keep tossing until it breaks! Mom deserves to have some fun too!

TIP: Water balloons can be bought in different colors at the dollar store.

2.  DIY Vase or Candle holder
Create a vase or candle holder in moms favorite color. I used FolkArt extreme glitter acrylic pain in Turquoise. I painted 2 layers letting them dry in-between coats.
For the square candle holder I used Fosted Glass spray paint over the whole jar.
For the mason jar I used an acrylic medium paint over the whole jar. Then I used a glue gun to place the twine around the top. Next I glued shells and glass rocks to the twine and jar.


TIP : Use a jar around the house or go to the dollar store to buy a vase / candle holder. You can also find shells, twine and glass rocks at the dollar store.
