Mother's Day Gift : A small gift with lots of thought...

As always...I started to hunt for the 'perfect' gift months earlier...
Well, I didn't managed to find any 'perfect' one yet...but I did found this lovely...
A bottle of nail polish of my mom favorite color.

A bit coral, clear and peachy...
(That's the way she always describe it!)

This is no THE Mother' Day gift...
but I know she would be glad to have it!

I was actually planed to pass to her today...
No wrapping... just in the same paper bag the store wrapped for me when I bought it...

Then, I saw Mich's post about "Faux Antique Perfume Bottles"
That's really tickles my fingers to do something with the little bottle.

Here is what I use...
Glue gun, some lace, some pearl string, a little ribbon flower I made earlier
(link here for the ribbon flower tutorial) and double side tape.


I started with wrapping the side of the bottle with the double side tape
Cut a small piece of lace just enough to wrap it around the side of the bottle




Glue the pearl string around the cap
At last, top my tiny little ribbon rose on it.


It's actually only took a few minutes, since I already have everything on hand.
But I believe... this little small 'touch up'...
able to convey my thoughts to her...

But always remember, don't wait until Mother's day to show your love,
shower her with your care and thoughts...every mom appreciate it...
even it is just a phone call or a cards...

Oh! Of course hot steamy cup cake would even better!
(Ha!  That's just me... Hint : for Mei Mei and Jojo)


Loves to all the moms in the world!

Happy Mother's Day...

Actually I hate to say 'day'...why just a 'day'...
you deserve the whole world and more than just a 'day'.
Let's celebrate mother's love...every'day'.

  1. That is so much prettier and more personal than the plain bottle - I love it, PC! A great idea - nail polish lasts a long time, so why not make it cool since it will be in your house for many weeks? The black lace on pink is especially elegant.
