Mother’s Day is coming up, and we are showcasing gift ideas inspired by treats that you can get in your local grocer’s bakery. Last year it was a success, and we were so touched by all of the responses we got from the Mother’s Day giveaway last year, that we are hosting another one this year.
It truly is so easy to find yummy treats in your grocer’s bakery, and dress them up to make a lovely gift idea.
We did it for Valentine’s Day with these fun free printables found here.
We did it for the holidays with pretty gift basket ideas and cookie mason jars here.
And we made fun party treat cups with mini brownies here.
But right now, it’s all about MOM and how to make her feel special.
You can dip coffee filters into water tinted with food coloring, and put them together in cupcake bouquet flower for a really pretty and crafty way to present a tasty treat to MOM.
I did a clump of about 6 coffee filters at a time in different colors, and let them dry. I even double dipped some to get really pretty color mixing effects.
Then when they were dry, I fluffed them and arranged them into pretty flower shapes, perfect to nest a yummy cupcake or muffin treat.
The free printables pictured on the cupcakes are included in our “Free Cupcake Printables for Every Occasion” when you subscribe to be on our mailing list.
Sign up here, and make sure to get your own free copy of Cupcake Toppers Printables for Every Occasion. The Mother’s Day cupcake printables are included, as well as printables for holiday celebrations all year long!
I cut mine out and attached them to pretty paper straws that I cut in half.
The coffee filter flowers are so festive and fun to make!

My aunt she has been there for me since my Mom passed
I enjoy spending Mother’s Day with my children, and their spouses and their children. It’s nice to complete the circle.
I am hoping to spend some time with my daughter, granddaughter, and grandson, since they are the only ones who live closest to me. My granddaughter is a joy and my grandson lives with me and is the only company I generally get.
I wish I could spend it with my mom…. My mom has been deseaced since I was 18 yrs old… I have two boys now one 2 and the other 5 and would have loved for her to have met them. And them to experience what having a grandma or grandpa is about. My mom was my best friend who I could confide in. Who gave me great advice.
I’d love to spend Mothers Day with my boys and husband! That’s who made me a Mom!
My mother and grandmothers adopted and real are all dead. I have 2 daughters both mother’s of boys one lives in town the other 3 hours away. I would like to spend the day with both of them. To honor them as mother’s and to hopefully be honored by them.
I would love to spend my mothers day , with my baby son ., Oscar has been away formore then 10 yrs !! Son , I miss u , come home soon ,, mom loves u
I would like to spend Mother’s Day with my children and grandchildren. They are the only family I have in the area.
I love any family time i can get. Love my family and spending time with them
I will celebrate with my Mom and 2 daughters.
I would like to spend Mother’s Day with my sisters! My Mother always wanted her daughters to be friends but the youngest doesn’t feel that way!!
My mom. Miss her so much. Like everyone really didn’t appreciate her and all she did for me. Miss you mom
My mom in law does soo much for my fam. We appreciate her & I’ll celebrate her this mothers day!
My Grandmother who was 100 when she passed away. There is honestly hardly a day goes by that SOMETHING in my day doesn’t bring her to mind. And make sure that peanut butter is carefully spread ALL the way to the edges of the bread!!!
I would like to celebrate with my mother (81) and 2 daughters. They are so super special!
I’d love to be spending Mother’s Day with my wonderful mum back in Australia, I miss being so far away from her. My mum is an amazing woman, she is courageous, talented and just strong.
I would love to celebrate my mom on Mother’s Day. She is a wonderful Grandma to my girls!
I would love to be able to spend another Mother’s Day with my mom and daughter together , she passed 4 years ago. But, spending the day with my little girl will be perfect.
I would like to spend that day with all the mothers in my life (my mom, grandma, aunts, sisters, cousins & friends). They all mean the world to me.
My mom and my young daughter. My mom is my best friend and such an amazing person. And one day I hope to be my daughter’s best friend.
I have been so blessed and having such a wonderful childhood makes it more difficult in many ways. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t miss my loving Mommy. She passed very young and she did so much in her years as a Mother that these memories can never be extinguished. She never got to see any of her grandchildren, and yet they all carry on many of her traditions that have been passed down. This year I lose my younger sister and my heart is empty without her, but I know she and ourMom are spending the day hugging each other and watching over the family.
Since this is a day set aside to honor all mother’s, I would love to have this time to celebrate and honor my Mother, Grandmothers, and my Daughter. I am sure this would be a very interesting time for all of us.
My mother is the kindest heart warming lady that is my best friend. We do not see one another enough , she is a caring woman and is always helping others . That is my mom . Now I am a grandma and I use my mothers wisdom with my Grandaughter , and when I see my mom I thank my mom when we do see one another.
I will spend Mothers Day with my beautiful Teen daughter adopted from China
having brunch at our favorite Diner and then on to a Movie.

The coffee filter flowers are unique & colorful! Happiest Motbers Day to all!
Most of all…my Mama! Best mama, grandma and great-grandma ever!
I will also be spending Mother’s Day with my mom who is in stage 2 dementia. It breaks my heart.

My Mom has since passed but growing up in a large family and traveling with the military presented not challenges for mom but opportunities for us. She was very crafty and keeping us too very busy. From a puppet theater to amazing things to do with kitchen items. It was so amazing to live in the family like this. We did in fact make paper flowers. because mom had the old fashion percolator coffee either electric or stove top we didn’t have that convenance. Happy Mothers Day Ladies every day.
I want to spend mothers day with my mom. She was a single parent and deserves more than me and my brother could ever give her. Love you mom!!
my husband and son. they make me smile each day
Even though my Mom has passed I have wonderful memories of her I share and spend Mothers day with my daughter making it a very special day for both of us!
I will celebrate with mom I love her thoughtfulness of others.
I’m happy to be spending Mother’s Day with my kids and my mom. She is so amazing, she’s ALWAYS there for her family, no matter what.
It would be my aunt and family. Has always been more than an aunt
I’d like to spend it with my grandmother, but she’s been gone for years. I’ll take my sister to brunch because her kids live out of town.
I will be spending it with my son and husband for sure (who are special for obvious reasons) and maybe my husband’s mom depending on how busy she is.
I’d like to be celebrating with my Mother, but I probably won’t see her since she is so far away. She is very special to me.
Since I am the only one left in my birth family, I will celebrate Mother’s Day early with my new granddaughter Sophia Mae on her baptism next Saturday and my grandson Caleb’s 1st Communion next Sunday.
I would love to be able to spend this Mothers Day with my mom but she left for Heaven 3 years ago. But it would be very selfish of me so I wish I could spend this Mothers Day with my children and grandchildren of which some I haven’t seen in a few years! That would be the greatest!
I would love to be able to spend Mother’s Day with my Mom, but unfortunately she passed away six years ago I miss her very much she was the best Mom anyone could ask for, always putting her 8 children first .Happy Mother’s Day Mom
My mom because she does so much for me.
It is exciting because it is my first year as a mom!
I will be celebrating with my Mom because she is the best and taught me all of my crafty ways!
