Back to School Bouqet

I spent the better part of the day working in my classroom. Having a student teacher is going to be very fun and rewarding. I wanted to make a little something for her to say "welcome". So, today I crafted this back to school bouquet.
Inspired by one of my favorite lines from "You've Got Mail", the next best thing to a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils is this back to school bouquet. It rests in a vase made of brand new #2 pencils.


This bouquet features 2 fall flowers in orange and yellow. The pencil vase is embellished with orange wired ribbon that has a shimmer to it. I made her this notecard using the DCWV Grade School stack.
I'm selling these on Etsy. Proceeds go to more school supplies for my classroom :) Consider one for your child's teacher or give your own desk a fresh, fall look. My favorite time of year is fast approaching!

I am actually thinking about going back for my teaching creds. If I do this is definitely going to be on my student teaching desk ;)

Love your project!
