Ok... so you've just messed up the 'close relationship' you probably had with your mother. This can result in you being 'locked up' and only being allowed to do certain things. This is not good.. so how can you make it up to her and gain back your freedom and trust?

Now there's no point wallowing in the past because what's done is done! What you can do is try and make it up to her, show her how sorry you actually are and try hard to 'gain back that trust you lost' (a phrase often used by my mother!)

[edit] Steps

If she doesn't want to listen to you just say "OKAY". Then when she isn't so upset say "sorry".
If she says "you say that all the time", just say that you mean it .
If she doesn't forgive you after an hour, go over and give her a hug. That will generally make her forgive you.
Admit that you really messed up. There's no point trying to make things up when you have not understood that you did something stupid. So have her explain it to you so you can tell her you understand and are willing to show her you are sorry.
Don't do it again. If you keep making that mistake, then apologizing and doing it all again, after a while she will never forgive you.
Do certain tasks and things you know your mum would usually have to force you to do. This could be little things like tidying up after yourself, picking things up when they fall, helping her around the house to slightly tedious jobs: washing the car, babysitting, vacuuming, doing the dishes, cooking family meals (or at least helping out in the kitchen.)
Listen to what she says and always follow her rules. Once she forgives you, tell her that you will never do it again and hug her.
Always tell your mom you love her; not just sometimes always!!!
If you know she is still kinda mad try doing things with her you know she likes.

[edit] Tips

Don't feel bad about yourself as a person... but understand that what you did was wrong ; when your mom shouts and screams, she's not angry with you being you. She's angry and disappointed with you/what you've gone and done.
Do not shout at her. She's your mother and she deserves respect. If you're angry with her, wait until she's out of ear shot before your scream and cuss the heck out of your pillow.
Always smile with her, don't walk around frowning like a silly chicken... she's either going to make fun, shout more or believe your taking it all as one big joke.
After she yells, say "I understand, but I'm trying to make up for what I did. I wasn't trying to make you mad. I just wasn't thinking."
Just remind yourself that you love your mom and she loves you and that cant get in the way of anything.

hug her and say your sorry and I love you. sometimes moms are mad for other reasons. its not always only your fault.

[edit] Warnings

Believe you can get her trust back; understand that it will take some work getting her back on your side, but you will!
Do all you can to make amends.
One thing you should not do... is mess up, but in a different way. That's just proving your mother right when she says you're a 'bad child.'
When she gets mad at you don't feel bad for yourself, just think of ways to make the situation better. Your mom will just get annoyed if you start crying and won't talk to her.
Don't yell at your mother...it will make everything worse.
