Pinterest is a website that has taken the world by storm. We all have one, and whether we use it to check out fashion trends or cool artwork, we just can’t get enough. One great thing about Pinterest is the endless supply of DIY crafts that could be given as cute gifts for any occasion. Need some good gift ideas for your mom or even your best friend? Check out these 4 DIY gifts from Pinterest. 

1. Spa and Pampering Jar 

 

This cute little jar is the perfect gift for a bride-to-be, mommy-to-be, mom, aunt, cousin, or friend — and it’s so easy to make! All you need is a mason jar and little pampering items such as nail polish, nail files, a small facial kit, or mini lotions and body washes.

 

2. Handmade Coffee Mug

For all of you coffee lovers out there! This is the perfect gift for anyone who needs that kick of caffeine to start their day. All you need is a white coffee mug and some paint to decorate it! Fill it up with some chocolate and Starbucks coffee packs or even a Starbucks gift card, and you’ve got the perfect gift for that one person who can’t put down a mug.

 

3. Letter-Shaped Photo Collage

Searching for a cute gift for a parent, grandparent, or long-time friend for a birthday or holiday? Look no further! This is the perfect gift to showcase all of your great memories with your family or friends. Check out the link in the title for the how-to on creating the most thoughtful collage of memories.

 

4. Home-Made Artwork

Got a friend who needs some artwork for her room? Or maybe you do? This craft is great and doesn’t seem to require much drawing skill (for those of you who are like me and lack in that area). All you need to do is draw a tree branch and then use the bottom of a soda bottle and any color of paint to decorate it with some flowers. This seems like a quick little project, and when you’re done you’ll have some great decor to give (or keep).
