What are some ideas for a homemade Mother's Day basket~besides a card & flowers, when mom is diabetic???

My mom is diabetic, and she really don't do much or really needs anything. I am clueless about what to get her for Mother's Day, but I was thinking about making her a homemade basket with some goodies in it... In the meantime I started a little project with my kids & nephews~~planting flower seeds and decorating the pots etc.. and a homemade card with pictures etc... What would be good to put inside the basket when the person you're giving it too don't need anything, is really not into anything- can't eat chocolate...Don't lit candles, don't do home spas etc... LOL- NO JOKE....She has almost everything...lol... Her house is like a store...lol... I need some ideas of what should I buy... I can buy perfumes because she never get tired of those, I would get her a bottle of wine- but she doesn't drink... I don't want to give her a gift card because that looks ridiculus and it'll mean more if I get something myself.... Any help would be appreaciated... Thanks...

Buy some kind of platter, don't spend much since she has everything, a round pizza pan will do, and get a set of towels, in her favorite color, large bath, small bath, hand towel and wash cloth. roll them up, large on on the bottom, smaller one in the middle, roll the small 2 up together, make it like a cake. you can add things around it, or just decorations, one time i pinned little aplique bitterflies, wrapped it in tulle, it doesn't even cost much. go here and look http://www.thinkwedding.com/Art-Wedding_… there are some ideas.if not can you get her an outfit, or go out with her. your mom seems practical, like my mom, they are so hard, mu mother asked for filters for her ice maker in her fridge : )
