Back to school/Fall themed blog hop
Setpember 10, 2011


Thank you for joining me on another blog hop!!  For today's project I chose the back to school theme.  My kids started school the middle of this week so I am still in the back to school mode.  I have wanted to make a crayon wreath for awhile now.  My youngest daughter is in 4th grade and I figured I better make one for her teacher now cuz she isn't going to want to give one to her teacher when she is in high school, wink, wink:-)  It was actually not as difficult as I feared.  I wrapped red ribbon around a styrofoam ring which I bought at Joanns.  I used my hot glue gun to attach the crayons.  I layered my cuts with a couple of shadows to make them a bit sturdier and then attached them to the wreath with the hot glue gun.  I looped some ribbon on the top to help hang the wreath.   I chose to use white vinyl for the teacher's name because it cuts better and yes, we call our teachers by their first name.  I am also entering this into My Pink Stamper's Pinkalicious Blog Hop challenge.




Recipe:
scissors - simply charmed
backpack - doodlecharms
pencil - smiley cards
apple - create a critter
chalkboard - svg, but could easily make one with george
teacher's name - lyrical letters
