Personalized Graffiti Pots

I help with my church's Achievement Days program and we have the 10-11 year old girls. Yesterday I decided to let them make Mothers day gifts and I had to keep it simple we only have an hour!

Items Needed:

  • Terra cotta Pots
  • Sharpies
  • clear coat
  • flowers (you could even make flower pens for teachers!)

I simply told the girls to add all the fun words that reminded them of their moms. Grandmas would love them too!  Didn't they come out cute. It will easily work for any age. I also think these would make excellent Teacher appreciation gifts. Add a flower pen with some words like “Thanks for helping me Grow/bloom!”

So what are some of your fun ideas for Mother’s Day? Do you prefer homemade or bought?
