Today I have a little Teachers Gift that I'd like to enter into several challenges, Celebrate The Occasion challenge #25, this week's theme "BACK to SCHOOL"; My Sheri Crafts challenge #66 - Back To School; Whimsical Wednesday create any project related to school, no cards this week please and Chatterscene the theme is School Time, any kind of school related project will qualify.
I decorated a clear pail with stickers and transparent ribbon as I wanted the receiver of the gift to get a peek at what's inside therefore I didn't want to totally cover it up (otherwise why use a transparent pail?). I glued school themed paper to the bottom and top of the pail. Added a pail topper stamped image to the top and some pretty ribbon to the handle. This inside has some goodies for the teacher which I found at the dollar store (post-it notes, motivational stickers, 2 rubber stamps and some crayons) I think it makes a fun, inexpensive, welcome to the new school year gift!
