Mother's Day Gifts

 We wanted to make fun and frugal gifts for Mother's Day this year, so we made soaps and bookmarks/ magnets. The boys "helped" and it all turned out really cute!
I saw this idea on Our Best Bites. You put Ivory Soap in the microwave and then you can add water and mix it up to mold it into different shapes. Tate loved watching it blow up in the microwave.

This is what it looks like....weird
The boys had fun molding the soap into cookie cutters

 
I wanted to make bookmarks and magnets, so I had the boys pose and then laminated the photos and cut them out. They turned out pretty dang cute. And, I made extras and the boys have had fun playing with them.
