Handmade Mother's Day Gifts

Mother's Day snuck up on me this year, but I think we are finally through with our making. Everything is handmade this year, and that feels nice. The 2 silhouettes are for O's grandmamas, and the picture is drawn by my niece and is for my sister. Making the silhouette has helped me get a head start on Father's Day gifts since I plan to frame the actual silhouette for Elliott for Father's Day. I think I may make silhouettes a traditional Father's Day gift for him to receive every year :)

Making the necklace pendants was a little frustrating this time around...probably due to the fact that I'm sad, hormonal, and just ready to be finished with a couple of projects from my very long list :) I had a difficult time getting the pictures the right size, and they still ended up being too narrow. Also, I somehow managed to glue my fingers together when I was gluing on the bails. I gave up on the crazy glue and used my hot glue gun instead. They won't be as sturdy, but hopefully the grandmas and my sister will understand that I'd reached my frustration level, so they better be happy with what they get :)
