Teacher Appreciation Week is coming up so time to get crafty....My kids have WONDERFUL teachers so we wanted to make something extra special!
I will start by saying how much I LOVE chalkboard paint and when I ran across some in a spray paint can I was super pumped! I bought some plain wooden frames at Michaels and spray painted them with the chalkboard paint, hot glued on a simple bow and attached a ribbon and a chalk stick and a cute little letter I found at Michaels too and there you have one adorable personalized frame! We added a picture I had taken of Conner and his teacher and he wrote a message on the frame to make it even more special! I hope they love it as much as I do. This little frame can be used over and over all they have to do is erase the chalk message add a new photo and write on it with the chalk and it can become a celebrate EVERYTHING frame!
GUMBALL THANK YOU
I have made these bubblegum jars before and loved how they turned out so I decided to recreate this idea again this year. Start out with a empty paint can (another one of my LOVES for crafting!) fill it with gumballs and embellish it with ribbon and a tag on the top that reads:
Thanks for "CHEWSING" to teach at SJS this year Conner has a "BALL"
Okay, I am seriously going to steal the gum ball idea for Avery's teachers this year! The frame is a really cute idea too!
