Honestly WTF's [embroidered photo book](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/embroidered-slippers1) DIY is a sentimental gift for Mother's Day. With the holiday just weeks away, show the most important lady in your life some love with an inexpensive and meaningful gift. While traditional Mother's Day gifts like jewelry and keepsakes can be pricey for those on a budget, this photo book DIY will bring tears to your mom's eyes but won't break the bank.

This craft project tutorial is created in partnership with [Artifact Uprising](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artifact-bar), a paper company that specializes in printable sheets and books. The project requires a choice of paper and is also created with tracing sheets, pencils, a thin needle and thread. Transform old baby photos with a custom embroidery design or opt for text that celebrates important milestones in your life.
