This week is Teacher Appreciation Week. The actual day was on Tuesday, but since Braden was home sick and Kamrie does not go to school that day I decided to wait until Friday for the kids to take their gifts. The buckets were made on NSD and then I added some flowers cut with the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge on my cricut. I then used some pipe cleaners between the flower layers and twisted these around the pencils. this was Braden's idea and I have to admit that it was a great one. I put a styrofoam ball in the buckets(I made 2 of these) and glued another pipe cleaner around it for the grass. Then I stuck the pencils in. I also made some cards to go with these.
They turned out adorable.. tell Braden he had a great idea.. love it.
