I am a mom and the BEST thing I ever got was a homemade card from my little girl and I will cherish it til the day I leave this earth. I am a very sentimental person and she had put alot of work in her gift, and believe me it was the BEST "gift" any mom should get. I am sure that what ever you decide your mom will LOVE it, it is what comes from the heart not the wallet. I hope tis helps.
