With Sunday being the first Sunday of Advent, I am suddenly really focusing on Christmas and what I am giving people. I love making gifts for people especially for those that I love the most. Here are some of my favorite DIY Christmas gifts for mom.
For me diy Christmas gifts for mom can fall into two categories. One, something that I can customize or personalize or two, something that I can make from scratch. We will start with category one.
Photo Books
These are my favorite Christmas gifts to give my mom and my mother-in-law. I give them a new photos book every year and they are a favorite to look at and see everyone grow up. These photo books are viewed dozens of times on Christmas and so many times through the year.
Shutterfly is my favorite website to use to make these books. It is so easy to use and if you shop their sales are really affordable.

DIY Christmas Gift for mom that you can make at home
Goat milk and lard soap
Making goat milk soap (or cows milk ) at home is really easy. It just takes some specific ingredients and a few common tools. It is a great way to make something that is useful but, in your moms, favorite scent. Don’t worry it doesn’t take weeks you can have soap to use within one day!
Seasoning Mixes
Seasoning mixes are a great option that is shelf stable, useful and tasty. Try the pluck seasoned salt, fajita seasoning, taco seasoning, breakfast sausage seasoning recipeor healthy ranch mix.
Canned Goods
It could be a jam or jelly, canned peaches or some delicious corn-free BBQ sauce.
Shelf Stable Treats
These granola barsare so good! They are a perfect to treat to share with someone you love. Crunchy granola is so handy to have on hand, add in her favorite dried fruits or chocolate. PB protein balls (or almond butter) are a family favorite, they freeze so well and are delicious right out of the freezer.
Whole wheat pancake mixmakes weekend breakfasts so much easier! It is by far our favorite pancakes that I make.
Books
If your mother loves to read try out these books on femineity or these classic books for girls.
Gifts You Can Sew
Hanging towels are a great way to add in her favorite colors or patterns, these are so easy to sew and the possibilities are endless. Half circle skirts are so flattering! The only downside is that you need to have an approximate waist measurement. This free pattern is so easy to make and can be made with almost any woven fabric.
Embroidered cards are the perfect old-fashioned gift to give the ladies in your life! They are so beautiful and unique.
