DIY Mother’s Day Gift: Mothers are special! Make something out of the box for her with this Mother’s Day craft idea which she will really cherish. In this Mother’s Day DIY idea we have converted a chopping board into a canvas of creativity. This is an easy Mother’s Day craft idea using chopping board.

STEP 1
Start with a wooden chopping board; any size or shape will do, for me the bigger is better. We have given the board a crackle effect using Fevicryl Acrylic Colours and Fevicol MR. We paint the first coat with a dark colour, here we have used Burnt Sienna 01. Let it dry. Then apply a thin layer of Fevicol MR on it with a flat brush. Apply the next coat of colour Teal Blue 68 immediately before the layer of Fevicol MR dries. Leave it to dry. The crackle effect will start appearing when the glue starts drying.
STEP 2
Now we start to embellish the chopping board. We have made a small dream catcher and for the ring of dream catcher we have used Shilpkar. Take the resin base and hardener; mix it thoroughly to make even dough. Leave it to dry.
STEP 3
Now make thin coils with the dough by rolling it with hands. We will use the rolled coils to make the shape of the wreath using little amount of Fabric Glue for sticking. Then Leave it to dry.
STEP 4
We have painted the coil wreath with Acrylic Colours Pearl Metallic Bronze 355. Let it dry.
STEP 5
For the next step draw a simple mandala on an OHP sheet. Paint the outline with 3D cone outliner Light Green 704 and let it dry. This will be then left to dry.
STEP 6
Paint the floral mandala design with Water Based Glass Colours Sea Blue 853, Pink 856 and Ultramarine Blue 859. Let it dry. Refer to the image. Take a doily paper and use distress ink on the edges. This will become the base of the mandala. Stick the mandala on the doily using Fabric Glue.
STEP 7
Take white card paper and punch few flowers and the leaves from it. Paint the flowers, leaves and the edges of the doily with different coloured distress inks of your choice which will look good as per the theme. Make a few tags with card paper using a Zig- Zag scissors. Write “All I need is my Mom” on tags. Paint the tags with Acrylic Colours Neon Pink 018 and different coloured distress inks. Let it dry. Use beads, feathers and threads to make strands of dream catcher. Assemble them and dangle them from the dream catcher. Arrange and stick the painted doily mandala design, the feather and glass beads strands, distressed flowers and the tags aesthetically on the painted wooden board using Fabric Glue. Let it dry. At the end make random mandalas on the board with Fevicryl 3D outliner Light Green 704.
STEP 8
Voila! We have the board ready! Isn’t it gorgeous? Make your own DIY Mother’s Day gift for your mother on her special day with this amazing Mother’s Day craft idea and you will definitely be rewarded with the best smile ever!
