Here's a pretty simple and yet lasting gift idea you can you make for your mother. A raised garden bed.
Think how terrific it will be each time your mum harvests veggies, or strawberries, or flowers and thinks of you.
The video is by Charles Dowding. He's big into compost making and gardening with no till methods. But this is a simple, well-explained project for making a 4'x4' bed. It can be placed anywhere convenient (I recommend somewhere that you'll see it regularly and close to a water supply).
So, you have a week to get your supplies together. Start looking around for lumber you can repurpose or get for free. Many municipalities give away compost in May, so you may be able to do this project for minimal cost.
Good Luck! And happy Mother's Day to all of you.
