Next week marks Teacher Appreciation week and many of us would like to thank our teachers but not break the bank doing so. Plus with the school year ending we will be donating to a class gift.

I was roaming around Pinterest this week and found some great ideas that will keep you within budget. How do I know, well I went out shopping for some supplies and made them myself!!

                                   

Here is how I made it…

I first used a rubber band to determine how many pencils I needed and to make my design if you are using different colors.

Then use a glue gun to attach the pencils. Work quickly as the glue dries quickly.

Once attached, add a ribbon for design. I first glued the ribbon around the pencils then added the bow, per my daughter’s suggestion.

Since I am the room mom, I will send out a email asking folks if they have flowers in their garden to bring one in to make an arrangement for the teacher!

Stay tuned for my another idea tomorrow.
