My children started back to school nearly two weeks ago. A little early I think but I guess that means they will get out a little earlier next year.
I always like to give my children's teachers a little homemade gift at some point during the year just to say thanks for doing what they do. I usually do this at Christmas time but I saw something at Michaels recently that made me want to rethink this and perhaps give the teacher a little something at the beginning of the school year...
How about a little back to school wreath for the classroom door. Isn't this soooo adorable? It is so doable too. You would never have to pay $49.99 for this unless you wanted to. You could totally do this yourself for MUCH cheaper. I have seen the pencil cutouts, sunflowers, scissors and faux apples at the Dollar Tree store. They also carry styrofoam wreaths for $1 there. The only costly item on this wreath is the burlap ribbon and even that isn't $49.99 so you could afford to make more than one. I'd hate to make my son the envy of the class and the teacher's pet but I so want to make one of these for the Bub's teacher this year. It's just too cute!!!
Now for a little laugh...
I was in downtown Washington, Missouri recently and came across a cute little store...It was their sign that caught my attention...
I just could not resist snapping a pic so you all could get a little chuckle too. So Cute!!!

This is so cute. You don't even have to but burlap ribbon-a yard of burlap is wide-and cheap at Wal Mart-make your own.
