Well I might get an "A" for effort but I sure do get an "F" for the outcome!! We decided to make this cute little 'tree' for the month of February and Valentine's Day for Holdyn's class... The top is all hear shaped marshmellows in a flower pot surround by the little heart candy sayings. Looks adorable right?!..............
Until the thing starts dropping marshmellows one by one. They are secured in there very good with a toothpick put the durn things kept falling! I was so mad cause I thought it was so cute and I knew Holdyn's teacher would LOVE it!! Robbie said think of it as a 'Fall' tree since all of the marshmellows kept falling and I would find them in piles around the pot.... ha!
So we had to put our thinking caps on and come up with something else. Much more simple and plain but it is gonna have to work!! Maybe we can perfect the marshmellow tree for next year!
Now, yes, I know I am a little early on this one (ok a lot early) but when I get motivated, you can't stop me! I had everything out already working on the Valentine's Day project so I decided to whip up the "Teacher Appreciation Day" happy. This turned out SO cute (at least I think!!)
It is a vase filled with ABC magnets, I tied on 2 packages of sunflower seeds, and the card says: "Teachers plant the seeds of knowledge that will grow FOREVER" .... cheesy ok but with the sunflower seeds attached.... you have to admit it's pretty cute!!
I already know exactly what I am making for Easter and it does involve a 'tree', but I am determined it will NOT be a flop..... stay tunned... it is going to be adorable !!
