For example ~ After breakfast in bed, the family will proceed to the park for a refreshing walk.

Followed by a chick-flick movie at our local theater. Dad is taking you out for a romantic dinner while I watch the kids.

Refrigerator magnets make unique homemade gifts. Plus, they cost so much less when you make them! Most craft stores will have everything you need.

Here is a list:
~ 3/4" round beads/marbles - make sure they're round, flat, and, uniform
~ Fabric - get colors your mom likes. Tiny scraps of fabric used for quilting usually have cute small prints or flowers. You may already have some at home.
~ Cute pictures on card stock - either print them yourself or find some postcards at the stationary store. You can also draw little flowers, hearts, her initials etc.
~ Family photos and pets photos look really cute!
~ 5/8" paper punch works well and can cut your photo or picture into a nice circle
~ clear silicone adhesive sealant
~ toothpicks (to dab on the glue)
~ 1/2" small round magnets (make sure they're strong)

Glue the image to the marble with clear drying glue.
Glue the magnet to the back with strong glue.

You can make a homemade gift box to hold the magnets out of an Altoid box or go to the thrift store and look for a cute tin box. Cover the box with pictures. Here are some examples of refrigerator magnets mom would love:
