DIY Mother's Day 2021 Poster - 88 Design Ideas

Good day! We continue preparations for a wonderful holiday of warmth and love. And, of course, decoration of offices and classrooms begins in all educational organizations. We used to draw wall newspapers and posters. So I decided to remember my youth and show you a few ideas for posters with detailed master classes on their implementation. Most often we drew them. In our time, there were no printers and there was nowhere to print a picture. Therefore, more often they were copied or invented something themselves.

So that you don’t rack your brains over what to depict and write on the poster, I have prepared this article for you. Many of the ideas are my own, but some were taken from the Internet for your inspiration.

More often, posters are painted in large sizes. To do this, use sheets of whatman paper or pieces of thick wallpaper. Or they make up a composition of four sheets of A4 format. I think that the most convenient option is to use the back side of the wallpaper. Especially if they are used not only for drawing, but also as a basis for applications.

And you can depict whatever your heart desires. The main thing is that these pictures and inscriptions express all the warmth and tenderness that we feel for our dear parents.

Let me also remind you that several thematic articles were published earlier on Mother’s Day. We made postcards in them. The children and I created a drawing of their mother. They also did simple but beautiful crafts. Look, there are a lot of ideas there.

DIY Mother's Day poster with pencil for school

Let's take a pencil and start sketching. After all, any masterpiece begins with a sketch. And the pencil is very convenient to use, it is easy to erase and you can use it to make thin, almost imperceptible lines.

Let's look at two simple options on how to quickly draw a small poster.

Master class No. 1. Let's start with an image of a brown bear and a bear cub. A cute couple that fits our theme very well.

We will need:

  • sheet of paper (A3 or A4),
  • pencil,
  • eraser,
  • colored pencils or paints.

Step 1. We will start by creating a composition. Let's try to imagine where we will place each of the elements. For example, there will be a congratulatory inscription in the center.

Below it we will draw a hugging bear couple. We begin to draw a line from the bottom of the sheet, rounding it at the ears and head. Gradually we draw silhouettes. Concave lines indicate eyes and mouths.

And in the empty spaces we will write what we feel most for mothers: I love you. If desired, you can add hearts or flowers with leaves.

The result is a picture like this.

Step 2. Next, erase unnecessary lines and fill in empty spaces.

You can leave everything as it is. But I want to make the drawing brighter and more festive. Therefore, I suggest painting over the sketch with pencils or paints. To make the letters easier to read, it is better to outline them with markers or pens.

Master class No. 2. Next, I offer a quick option for creating a poster. Let's take two silhouettes of palms as a basis. The big one belongs to the mother, the small one to the child.

We will also add congratulatory phrases and phrases.

We will need:

  • sheet of paper of any size,
  • simple pencil,
  • eraser,
  • two silhouettes of palms,
  • wax crayons or colored pencils.

Step 1. I suggest starting from the upper right corner. In it we will denote the theme of the holiday in large letters. Try to keep the letters approximately the same size, this will make it neater. You can do it by hand or using a stencil. This is optional. If you are proficient in calligraphy, then use it.

We will apply and outline an adult palm diagonally in the lower left corner. We will put it in and also mark the nursery.

Step 2. Add some decor. I wanted to focus on congratulations. Therefore, we draw circles of different sizes around it. The more there are, the denser the improvised frame will be.

Step 3. Next you need to write warm and pleasant words and wishes. For example: “Thank you for your warmth and care. You are my dearest person!”

On the other hand, we’ll add “It’s always warm next to you,” “We love and appreciate you immensely!” and “Our Ray of Light.”

We wipe down places that seem sloppy or unnecessary.

Step 4. Now take crayons or colored pencils and trace the lines. To make the drawing brighter, we use red, yellow and orange colors. A red or burgundy inscription always adds solemnity.

We will paint the mother's hand orange, and the child's hand yellow.

Wax crayons can cause paint to run off. Therefore, it is better to circle phrases with a ballpoint pen.

For inspiration, I picked out a few ideas that you can draw with a pencil. For example, you can place a self-drawn image of your mother in the center of any poster.

Add wishes from the bottom of your heart, like here.

If you are pressed for time, then create a bright center of the composition. For example, in this photo, a heart was placed in the most prominent place.

You may find a similar picture useful for sketching.

This poster featured a bear-shaped accent. Colors were added with colored pencils. Nice and simple.

Here's an idea for drawing such a bear.

Printable option. Can be placed in the very center of the wall newspaper.

I thought that almost no one depicts a stroller with a baby on the wall newspaper. But these elements directly relate to our topic. Here's a picture for inspiration.

Invite several children to work on the composition at once. The more elements they draw, the more interesting the result will be. And also invite them to write a list of those things that they associate with the topic. Then there will be more choice for images.

How to easily and beautifully draw a Mother's Day poster with paints and gouache

When you create on a whole sheet of whatman paper, you need to cover a large area of ​​it with drawings. And so that the work does not take too long and turns out evenly bright, use paints or gouache for creativity.

First, let's look at the options that came to my mind. And then photographs of finished children's works.

Master class No. 1. Because it’s mostly children who work for mothers. I suggest using the finger technique. I didn’t use a pencil for this idea, I just drew with paints.

Step 1. To do this, apply gouache to the pad of your finger and make prints along the entire edge of the sheet. You can form them into a flower, or a heart. For greater brightness we use two colors: red and yellow

Step 2. Next we connect our hearts with a wavy green line. We put dots along its length and add leaves in some places. Add a rowan leaf in the corners and empty spaces.

We will cover the center with chaotic brush masks with yellow paint. We leave the workpiece to dry and then write down wishes on it.

Step 3. In the middle we write the theme of the holiday. From the inscription we visually draw lines along which we will place adjectives and other words pleasant for mother. Let's imagine that the rays seem to come from the center.

To complete the picture, I suggest filling the empty spaces with dots of blue or cyan paint. I just put it on the brush and quickly made imprints on the sheet.

Master class No. 2. Here I wanted to make the main inscription more accentuated. Therefore, I propose to frame it.

Step 1. Find the center of the sheet and select its upper part. There we mark a square 6*7 cm. We mark 1 cm along the edges and add a second square. Next, use a ruler to mark identical horizontal lines inside the frame.

Step 2. Write the theme of the holiday. Add sprigs of greenery in the corners. Here's a closer photo of what happened.

Step 3. Add flowers in the corners located diagonally to each other. The simplest ones without any frills.

The sheet will go in the center. And in the empty spaces we will add clouds with confessions for our parents. You can write quotes in them: “Mom is a word that everyone understands,” “Mom is a word, 4 letters, eternal meaning,” “Mom is the most expensive luxury in the world. So please, appreciate her” and “The kind of person who will replace everyone. But no one will replace her,” etc.

Step 4. Paint over the sketch with watercolors. We try to ensure that the paint layer is not complete, otherwise the written phrases will not be visible.

Then let the drawing dry. Now let’s circle all the letters with a felt-tip pen or pen.

Options that children created for Mother's Day. Idea with white bears.

A woman holds a child in her arms.

You can add appliques and voluminous decorations. This will make the poster brighter.

The unusual arrangement of phrases along the edges is vertical.

Homemade daisies added volume to this wall newspaper.

Here they depicted a big heart full of love.

You can print poems for the main composition. In printed form, they will take up less space and there will be more of them.

Let's continue, there are a lot of ideas, we need to consider everything.

Beautiful drawing for mom from kindergarten children

Of course, every year kindergartens put on an exhibition of pictures drawn by children. Sometimes it's funny to look at them. But don't put them aside. After all, you can understand a lot from them.

Children love to draw their mothers. Often, based on their drawings, psychologists can even tell whether the child is doing well. Does he have any injuries? The finished image can explain a lot about whether he is drawing himself next to her. Or it stands far away and to the side.

I just wanted to collect many different images in one place. They are all bright and kind. YOU can use them as the basis for a poster. Or write congratulations against the background of the finished picture.

My daughter gave me this masterpiece. She's doing great. The main thing is that mom has a mouse at her feet! And the sun is shining all around and flowers are growing.

Another present from her.

Bouquet of flower children. Each child makes an applique in the shape of a flower. A photograph is pasted inside. This idea can be used not only in kindergarten, but also for school.

Another great idea.

Look how interesting the phrase was played out in different languages. It turned out very unusual.

You can make such a collage of photographs together with your elders, for example with your dad or sister. And decorate mom's room. She will definitely be inspired by your ideas and thank you from the bottom of her heart.

The angel mother was depicted very beautifully. She is our best amulet.

I also found a wonderful selection of posters that are all collected in one place. Everything is glued to the glass. There are many of them you may like.

For kindergarten kids, you can use ideas with palms. It's quite easy and the kids themselves like it. Below I will devote an entire chapter to such options.

They also made a frame of palms around the edges. They are colorful and perfectly decorated the poster.

And here we got creative. And they created an unusual composition where children support their mothers. Each child is depicted as a ray of sunshine. This is a great idea!

A voluminous poster always looks decent and interesting.

We used red hearts and homemade daisies as a basis. You can print the background you like. And based on it, create an application.

Cardboard letters

The inscriptions on the back of the stage are a weak point almost always and everywhere. The letters are poorly painted, the letter spacing is not maintained, and everything, as a rule, looks unprofessional.

If possible, it is better not to do this at all :-). But there are times when inscriptions or numbers are required. For example, a school anniversary.

I suggest decorating large cardboard letters with small flowers from colored napkins. The work is painstaking, but the effect is quite interesting.

The napkins are the most ordinary, small ones. One flower requires 2 napkins. Place them folded one on top of the other, draw a circle using a saucer, and cut them out. We fasten it in the center with a stapler. What to do next can be seen in the picture. We fix the resulting flowers with glue on a cardboard blank with numbers or letters.

By the way, there are more than 40 more pictures with letters and numbers from other materials HERE.

Poster ideas and templates with photos (can be downloaded)

In the wonderful service Canva I found many layouts dedicated to Mother's Day. All of them are quite laconic and restrained in a European way. I added inscriptions in Russian to them and inserted other photos. It turns out to be a very decent design.

You can use the proposed color schemes and location of photos and text as a basis. And also print it out and give it as a postcard.

By the way, if you use your imagination, you can prepare a similar poster. Just try to find a photo where mom looks beautiful.

It’s not a shame to put this design on a shelf. A wonderful collage with the right message. Take note.

You can make this type of congratulations with black and white photographs.

This idea can be supplemented with various poems and wishes.

Another option in soft pastel colors.

Bright and bright memories are associated with my mother.

You might also like this poster format. Each child can print this picture. And in place of the photo he will paste his own.

Idea for a collage.

Photo placement option.

Humorous poster. A very worthy gift for mom. You can draw it by hand by simply repeating the idea. Just add your favorite face.

I collected ideas with photographs. Below are options with pictures. They are much easier to repeat.

Fire safety

The do-it-yourself information and educational wall newspaper about fire safety stands out. It is issued in order to convey fire safety rules to children of preschool and school age.

Illustrated rules with bright design are remembered better. Children can also be involved in creating such a poster, which will make learning even more effective.

Frequently used elements here are the slogan “In case of fire, call 01”, a red telephone, a fire extinguisher, a fireman in a helmet, an image of fire, etc.

These are just some of the options for using wall newspapers. You can take them as a basis and come up with something of your own, unique, inimitable.

Original Mother's Day poster made from palms

Let's think about how you can arrange your palms on paper so as to get a beautiful poster. Here you can invite everyone to participate: from dad to grandfather. Of course, kids will like this idea the most.

But let's start with the ideas that we repeated at home.

Master class No. 1. I propose to make a print of a child’s palm against the background of an adult’s palm. The main thing is to catch and wash the baby in time.

We will need:

  • paper,
  • gouache,
  • two palms (mother and child),
  • pen,
  • markers.

Step 1. First we spread the gouache. If it hasn’t dried out and is fresh, then immediately apply paint to your hand. We try to act quickly before the gouache dries.

Place your hand on the paper and press. Then carefully, so as not to smear the print, remove your palm.

Step 2. Leave the workpiece to dry. Then we call the child and repeat the whole procedure with his hand. We take contrasting paint. We used red.

Step 3. After the center of the composition had completely dried, branches with leaves were painted along the edges with watercolors.

And they made accent inscriptions. With a bright raspberry marker they wrote “Mom, I want to say... that you are a miracle!”

And along the edges and in empty places we will add: “You are my ray of light”, “You are my tenderness”, “You are the best thing I have” and other similar phrases.

The result is a similar picture. You can enter sentences from poems or songs.

A variation of palm chicken and fingerprint chicken. A very suitable idea for your theme.

Here we took the bouquet as a basis. Just traced the pens on colored paper and cut them out. The result was a voluminous idea.

On this wall newspaper, photographs in palms were placed along the edges.

Here we took prints as a basis.

Another idea with a bouquet in a vase.

Flowers were made from colorful prints. It turns out very bright and beautiful.

Here's an idea on how to depict the sun and rainbow. And they added photos of children with their mothers.

We also arranged the silhouettes of the pens by color. Another bouquet is ready.

Here the prints were used as the main background. Simple, but looks interesting.

Another idea.

Here are options for how you can place your palms. For example, first take your father’s hand, followed by your mother’s. And make a child’s print on top of them.

Contrasting option. You can draw it.

The baby holds his mother's hand by the finger. Perfectly suits our theme.

Another option. It looks natural and symbolic.

Such a picture can become an independent background for a poster.

I think you liked these options. After all, from the prints and silhouettes of children's hands you can make a huge number of different crafts and drawings. The main thing is to turn on your imagination and try to see something new in old technology.

Unusual pasta creations as a gift for mom - quick and easy

Well, such a gift is really unusually cool, and it’s a pleasure to make it. For example, give your mother beads made from multi-colored pasta. Which can be painted with acrylic paints, but it is better to use food coloring for eggs with the addition of vinegar, or buy ready-made ones.

The easiest way is to place the noodles in bags and add the prepared bright solution to them.

Then put the blanks on a thread and the souvenir is ready.

You can create other souvenirs, for example these. Here are a couple of ideas for you.

If you want, you can also make this year’s new box from this material, and this video will help you. You will definitely like it, all the work steps are clearly shown, use:

By the way, they also lay out entire paintings from pasta. So, you can also create such a composition if you wish.

How to draw a holiday drawing of a mother holding a baby (child) in her arms

There are many pictures of a woman holding a baby in her arms. There are detailed images, and there are silhouettes. In my opinion, the latter are much easier to draw. Therefore, I propose an idea on how to place a similar picture on a Mother’s Day poster.

Master class No. 1. You can take your favorite image as a basis. I copied it from my phone. I didn't try very hard to maintain the proportions. Let there be an individual drawing.

We will need:

  • pencil,
  • paper,
  • eraser,
  • colour pencils,
  • picture.

Step 1. Start making a sketch at the top of the sheet. It’s more convenient to start drawing with the woman’s profile.

We create a profile of the child every day. It is smaller in size. A baby's head is always larger and rounder than that of an adult.

Step 2. Add an ornament along the edges. We don't do anything complicated. We draw flowers in the form of two circles. Let's add one tulip. Look, simple shapes and lines are used.

Step 3. Use colored pencils or crayons to paint over our blank.

Step 4. All that remains is to add various phrases, quotes or congratulations. Empty spaces can be filled with dots or stars.

For inspiration, I selected several drawings that suit our theme.

Here are women's hands holding a baby.

Silhouette of a mother with a child against the background of a heart.

This picture can be used as a template or stencil.

Another simple idea to copy and repeat.

This template can be cut out and applied to a colored background.

A picture with the English name of the holiday.

A similar picture might be useful. It will worthily occupy the main part of the poster.

The idea of ​​the location of the picture and the inscription.

You can use handprints along the edges, it will be more symbolic.

Don't forget to write warm and tender confessions. Mom always likes it. Especially when we say such phrases at least once a year.

Large voluminous flowers and pompoms

Pompoms of different colors and sizes can be bought in online stores. They will be delivered folded, all you have to do is fluff them up.

If you have time and free hands, you can do it yourself.

I won’t repeat myself, I’ll just point you to my article, which contains three examples of fairly large paper products. Just be careful, some flowers are made from crepe paper, while hanging balls and floor flowers are made from tissue paper.

We follow the picture, there is a description:

How to decorate a hall with such flowers?

  • can be hung from the ceiling
  • attach to the edge of the stage (as a rule, there is always something to cover there :-))
  • hang vertically on ribbons along the edges of the stage
  • lay along the edges of the “carpet” path along which graduates solemnly walk

I recommend looking at examples of pom-pom design in this article.

Ideas with candies and sweets for A4 format

You can make a three-dimensional poster with gifts and candies. Now there are many different slogans that can be matched to our topic.

Here are a couple of examples of how to use sweets to create a gift.

You can glue them on with double-sided tape or using a stapler. But before gluing, first lay out all the presents on whatman paper. You can even circle them so you don’t forget the location of the candies.

Add beautiful pictures and images to the theme and you will get a bright and incomparable result. Everyone will like it, not just mothers. By the way, don't forget about grandmothers.

To prevent the poster from curling up under the weight of the gifts, try to place them evenly over the entire surface.

How to decorate a hall with voluminous garlands

The point is this: you need to make three-dimensional figures from paper, which are then strung at some distance from each other on threads, fishing lines or thin ribbons. Such garlands hanging from the ceiling will greatly decorate a music or assembly hall.

Here is my example - pigeons in the clouds: I print out a diagram of a paper dove (by the way, you can print 20 more diagrams of different animals from here). For one garland we need two such birds. Cut out and fold along the folds, looking at the drawing in the right corner.

Print:

PIGEON

We will alternate pigeons with paper clouds like these. I don’t give you a diagram - we randomly cut out identical parts from 2 sheets of A4 format, bend them and fasten them in the center with a stapler. In a large figure, I cut out a small detail inside. This will also be a small cloud.

All! All that remains is to assemble our voluminous garland onto a string! I did this with a needle, securing the parts simply with a “step back” seam so that they would not roll down.

How do you like my pigeons in the clouds? By the way, these garlands spin very beautifully from any air movement. In the diagram the dove has legs, but we don't need it to stand on the table, I just made a curve at the bottom.
