Brainstorm Coupon Ideas to Make a Coupon Gift Book for Mother's Day

Begin by brainstorming potential coupons for your mother. Think of ways you can help out around the house or create a more pleasant environment for your mother.

For example, offering a coupon to clean the dishes or stop complaining for a day are great options for your mother when she needs extra help or needs peace and quiet. There are no “wrong” coupons, but make sure the items you present are thoughtful and she will be sure to enjoy them.

Construct the Book to Make a Coupon Gift Book for Mother's Day

Print your coupon names onto white paper and cut them into rectangles. Mount the coupon information onto construction paper. One way to make your coupon book unique is by cutting the construction paper into the shape of a flower. Use a different color construction paper for each flower.

Stack all the flower coupons together to form your booklet. Punch two holes along the edge of the booklet and bind the pages together using your string. Tie the string together cutting off any excess once finished. Present your coupon book in a decorated envelope for a creative presentation. And that is how you create a coupon gift for Mother’s Day.
