With Mothersday coming up soon, its really nice to get children to make home made presents for mums. The gifts are more personalised and it also teaches children that not all presents gifted need to be shop bought and have be expensive. These little nik nak pots are really easy to make and all the craft items needed are ones you can find around the house or you can use scraps.This activity is suitable for young children with adult supervision.
To see how you can make these Nik Nak holder pots please watch the video here:
You will need to make the pots:
1 small round plastic container
Coloured paper
scraps of ribbons and braid
Some buttons, sequins or decorations of choice
Double sided tape
Glue gun or fabric glue
Scissors
Gifts to put into the cups such as jewellery, pens, brushes, chocolates, candles, miniture bath stuff.
Some gift ideas to put into your pots:
Candle Holder
Chocolate Holder
Makeup Brush Holder
Jewellery Holder
Pen Holder
What I love about these kind of gifts are that they are so easy to make, full of thought and can be decorated so uniquely, thank you for sharing they are lovely :) x

Mums love homemade gifts don't they? This takes me back to my youth and crafting away in the kitchen and telling my Mother she couldn't come in until I was done.
