mother's day countdowbn: 2 days

Okay, it's crunch time. You have 48 hours to find/buy/order/make a gift for mom. Lucky for you, Wiki How has a bunch of tips for do it yourself mom's day present goodness. Along with these ideas, why not tuck in a hand made greeting card? Here's one of our old tricks: 1) Take an old picture of you and mom (or, just her, just you or a picture of something that's special to the two of you) 2) Blow it up and xerox on some card stock 3) Fold the paper in half horizontally (hamburger style) with the image on the inside of the fold 4) Write something witty or just "Happy Mother's Day, I love you" in sharpie (play up the handmade aspect) on the outside and you're done! Now, the presents... 1) Mom's day without spending a lot of money 2) Give your mom a "day off" 3) Make a photo slideshow 4) Make mom breakfast Does anyone else have tips for last minute mom's day gifts?
