Finding a birthday gift for anyone can be difficult, but it can be especially tough to find the perfect gift for someone as special as your mom. Purchasing an expensive gift is great, but getting crafty and creating a one-of-a-kind gift truly pulls on the heartstrings.

This year, flex your creative skills and create one of these birthday gift ideas for your mom using chalk markers.

Make a Home for Her Jewelry

If your mom is a jewelry collector and needs a new home for her expanding collection, you could decorate a wooden, metal, glass, or plastic jewelry box with wet-erase chalk markers for a smooth and vibrant finish. Your mom will be so surprised and grateful for receiving something meaningful and practical.

Decorate the box with pretty designs and her favorite color combinations to make the box extra special. Remember to date the box at the bottom so your mom can remember this occasion.

Decorate Her New Favorite Wine Glass

Sometimes moms like to wind down after a long day with their favorite beverage. Find a glass or tumbler she’ll like and decorate the outside! Personalize her glass with her name to make it meaningful and memorable. Our chalk markers are smear-free and will resist smudging. To seal the marker for a permanent design, we recommend using a clear coat of sealant.

Create a Jar of Mom Coupons

Every mom needs a break or two or three—or as many as she wants. Fill a mason jar with personalized “coupons” for mom to relax for the day. Include coupons like, “this coupon entitles mom to bed in breakfast,” or “this coupon entitles mom to a clean room.”

This is a simple gift that can help mom out in the long run. Decorate the mason jar and coupons and present them to your mom on her big day! Who knows, she might cash one in that very same day!

Make a Personalized Keychain

Allow your mom to take your creation on the go by crafting a personalized keychain. Make a decorative keychain if your mom’s keyring looks bland and could use some pizzazz! Use customizable non-porous materials (glass, plastics, metals, and wood) for keychains that will allow chalk markers to pop!

No one deserves a creative and thoughtful birthday gift more than moms. Make your mom something special and unique by trying something on our list of birthday gift ideas for your mom using chalk markers.
