Mother’s Day DIY
Mother’ Day is just a few days away, and for the first time in 8 years I knew just what to get/make for my mom. With my mom being hundreds of miles away, I don’t get to see her and treat her for mother’s day as I would like. So this year I decided to make her something not just for mother’s day, but just because she’s my mom.
A few years ago I came across this website where you can create your own memory photo book, called Mixbook.com. So while I was thinking of all of the things I wanted to DIY for my mom, that she would never use, I thought why not create an inspirational book for her instead. My mom loves to read and she loves her kids, so I knew it would be the perfect gift for her that she could look at whenever she’d like. I gathered inspirational quotes and pictures of my family I knew my mom would love and started to create her photo book.
Making your Mother’s Photo Book
You will need to be a little tech savvy to make your photo book, but the process is fairly easy. First you select your design, and there are designs for every occasion.
Next, you select your size options. The books come in square, landscape, and portrait. And you may also select paperback, hardcover, or hardcover with jacket. Once you have made your selection, click START BOOK.
You are now ready to begin your project by clicking NEW PROJECT and then clicking Edit.
These photo books are great for any occasion as a personal keepsake.
Helpful hints
- Have all of your pictures downloaded on your PC, preferably in one folder, to make uploading pictures easy.
- Have an idea of what you want your photo book to look like, what story are you trying to tell? What’s your theme?
- Keep the person you are making your photo book for in mind. What does that person like/dislike?

P.S. With God there is nothing you can’t handle.

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I
find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand.
It seems too complex and very broad for me.
I am looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!
