Teacher Appreciation Week - Day #4 - Bloom Where You are Planted!

First, I'd love for you to stop by the Pretty Packages Party and link up one of your packages or Teacher Appreciation Gift ideas!

Second, why don't you stop by and link to the Tuesday To Do Party, too?!!

Again, as I mention earlier this week, the PTA at our school sent home a list of items to send to school each day for Teacher Appreciation Week.
(This week is only 4 days as the teachers had an in service on Monday.)
Day #1 - Pencils (click here)
Day #3  - Markers or Pens (I already had something else...candles) (click here)

 AND THIS

Day #4 - a flower

Teachers who inspire know that teaching is like cultivating a garden, and those who would have nothing to do with thorns must never attempt to gather flowers. ~Author Unknown


Here is my version of the gargen basket...

Using a trusty Sonic beverage carrier, I added a spade, shears and a pair of gloves all courtesy of Dollar store.

 Our sweet teacher loves Mary Englebriet.
This tin sign as a great find at Hobby Lobby.
With a paint pen, I wrote a little note to her thanking her for being such a wonderful teacher.

Flowers for her garden and tissue paper finished out the "basket."
***Tip*** Put the flowers pots in plastic baggies to keep any moisture from leaking in the cardboard carrier.***
A sweet basket for a sweet teacher.

Thank you Mrs. S. for all you do!
We'll miss you next year!

Smiles!!
