How can I do something for my mum for mothers day with no money?

My mum knows that my partner and I have some finacial problems but i still dont want her to go without on mothers day! I have bought her card but i dont have enough to get her a present! She is a very practical mum and likes things she can use again like clothes or she would love a spa treatment!!





Any ideas on what I can do??

If you have time to do it write her a story accopanied with photos if possible or even a vidoe about her life when she gave birth to you and afterwards including all the hardships and give her a special thanks at the end of it. If you use a video breakway or yiu had a bad day would go really weel wit it
Reply:Give her your TIME she will really appreciate it. Spend the whole day with her and spoil her by making her meals, take her for a walk in the park or somewhere else that doesn't cost money. Give her a massage if you can or you can do you both a facial with ingredients you have in the cupboard like honey and oatmeal, give her a manicure - anything which makes her feel good and where you can spend time together. Hope you have a lovely day with her x
Reply:My Dear Its very simple you love u r mom and wants to present her something which involves no money...Its as simple as anyone can think about give her a day break do all the house work, cook food for her arrange her house beautiful let her feel she has someone who loves her...all she I mean u r mon has to do is have bath and get ready like bride this doesnot cost u money...try use used candles in the dinner table if u cant efford at least candle for her...
Reply:Just go and visit her that should be enough. Maybe cook her lunch?
Reply:Maybe (if you have enough food...I'm not trying to make fun of you but really, if you have enough food), make a nice dinner that would impress her. If you or your partner cannot cook, ask a friend a favor to do so. Your mom won't be able to re-use this dinner but she will appreciate your time for making her a lovely dinner. And, if you think my idea of letting someone else cook is crazy and that this dinner might as well come from your friend, try to light up the house nicely and put candles to show your love for your mother.





Also, as -craighwk- said, make something homemade and especially cards. All through my childhood to older years I made cards for christmas, easter, birthdays, etc. Except for when I had to send cards to my 7 cousins and 6 uncles aunties who lives 3000 miles away. %26lt;Another country%26gt;
Reply:In addition to the card you could do some housework for her such as decorating one of the rooms, gardening or washing windows or her car if she has one. Thats what I'll be doing on sunday.
Reply:house work, cook the dinner
Reply:Just give her a hug and a kiss. Invite her to your place for a simple dinner and just make her feel (I don't know how!! this you have to do) that you love her and care for her.
Reply:Just give her your love and time. Show her her worth and make her realized that despite of what is the present situation in between, you still care for her by showing her your gratitude.


Either she would appreciate it or not because you think that she is too practical, why don't you take her to the most unforgettable place from your childhood where you spent together and a few recap from yesterday that touch her heart.


A simple Thank you for everything she does 'til what you've become right now is because of her.
Reply:Make her a lovely collage of photographs. You must have ones of you both ranging from when you were little. Then get yourself an old picture with a decent frame from a charity shop, chuck the old picture out and use the frame.


It will cost next to nothing, but show that you really thought about it.
Reply:Parents always love something that you put time into. I used to make my mother home-made cards for Mothers Day and she loved them.





It's not always what you get them, but the thought you put into it.
Reply:When I was younger (8-15) and had a Mum but no money, I used to walk in the local woods and harvest a small crop of daffodils or alike. One point here is there must be somewhere that you could go to 'pick' a small bunch of flowers for your Mum. The other point is that even if you haven't got 'much' money, it must be worth at least spending some of the money you do have on your Mum.





These days I have plenty enough money but no Mum; so treat your Mum whilst you have her!
Reply:well, you can try something inside, like when she wakes up, prepare for her a nice breakfast with a flower and those things, then you can take her for a picnic and you make the food basket, or you can bake her a cake and write on it I love you mom and those kind of things..





good luck
Reply:just tell her in your card. how you fill; she will understand.
