Are your kiddos ready to head back to school? School Supplies – CHECK, School Clothes & Shoes – CHECK, New Backpack & Lunchbox – CHECK, Extra School Supplies for the House – CHECK. Gift for the Teacher?….
Usually we are so busy getting all the things ready for our children to be as prepared as they can be for the new school year we forget about their wonderful teachers. The teachers who are also preparing for their new students, getting their classrooms ready, making sure they are as prepared as they can be for OUR children, so I think it’s important to include a little gift for them also. Nothing Big, Nothing Fancy, but something I am sure they will love, need, & it’s adorable. This craft is going to be very exciting if you have little ones, but the older ones will enjoy the independence of getting to use the glue gun. This Back to School Bouquet is perfect to start the new school year.
– Tin Cans { I used Veggie/Soup cans}
-Crayons for the little cans, colored pencils for the regular cans
-Ribbon
– Fillers { We chose red pens for grading, Dry Erase Markers, & Highlighters
-glue gun {please watch children these get so hot if you’re not familiar with them}
1. If you are going to be using the little cans you will need crayons, if you are going to be using the regular size bigger cans you will need color pencils, or you can even use Markers if you wish.
2. Allow glue gun to heat up, began gluing crayons/pencils/markers to cans.
{We chose these two school ribbon patterns and I decided to wrap it to give it a border.}
