Teacher's Present

Hi all,

It's getting towards the end of another school year and I find it so hard to think up original ideas for teacher's gifts that aren't chocolates, wine or flowers!! Especially male teachers.


I was at a craft class, earlier this week and we made a picnic basket. I loved it and so this became the container, and now just to fill it!!

As you see from the photo - I've ended up with a notebook, matching pen, a bookmark and decorated a candle.


Recipe:


Spiced Cider DSP

True Friend stamp set

Really Rust CS

Close to Cocoa

Hodgepodge
(with the help of Bind-it-All, and tissue paper and matching inks)


Happy crafting

Welcome

Well, I've finally done it - and entered the world of 'blog land'.
Please be patient with me, as I'm not very computer literate!!

An example: My son 13 yr has just walked past, laughed at my efforts - (he's been listening to me sigh and generally getting annoyed at my computer for the past hour or more); commenting that it should have only taken 5 mins and how would I like to make stuff for U Tube!!
I'm just visualising Homer Simpson with his hands round Bart's neck.

Please join me again soon, you never know there may be pictures too!

Happy crafting
