Father's Day gift ideas

Father's Day: a beautiful day honouring fathers and celebrating fatherhood.

Of course nothing can beat Self-Made Gifts. The family crafts section of about.com has some nice ideas or home-made gift ideas. For example instructions to make a special gift using a hand print and this poem. Or make a fun t-shirt full of real footprints and a special message (like "my kids walk all over me") Or this instruction explains how you can create a colorful paperweight using color crayons and rocks. But there are many more ideas.

Of course there are also a lot of beautiful or funny gifts you can order online for father's day. Here a small selection:

Special Mother Day gift

n the website www.walletpop.com I found 10 nice Mother's Day gift ideas. Some of them I like a lot, like a a tiara or garden plants.

But a very unexpected Mother's Day gift idea is to Buy a gift from the World Vision Gift Catalog. There you can give a life-changing gift to the poor in the name of someone special. For exeple a dairy goat or clean water.

I also like a keepsake mirror as a mothersday gift. A mirror with an with inspirational verse. Saying:
Among my fondest memories will always be those times when you did such wonderful things for me that made me realize how very much you love me. Always know that I love you, too.
