PTA Teacher Breakfast with a Gift Idea

Our Elementary School's PTSA Board planned a Welcome Back to School Breakfast today as a fun way of introducing ourselves to the teachers.

These really fun duct tape flower pens will be a gift to the teachers with a message that says
"Thank you for making young minds BLOOM!"

My sweet daughter Jasmine will be 12 in two months, and she wanted to get a jump start on working on her personal progress activities for the Young Women program of our church.  Part of this program has the girls working on service projects of their choosing that help remind them of different values.  So she decided to volunteer the many hours it took to make these gifts for the 30 teachers attending the breakfast today.  Our school colors are blue & yellow and all of the pens fit in two of these cute flower pails I found at the dollar store.  I think she did a great job so I thought I would share this "Teacher Gift Idea" with all of you.  There are several great videos on YouTube that show you just how fun and easy these are to make.  Thank You Jasmine for working so hard on these.....I know the teachers will love them.....hope all of you feel inspired to give the teacher's in your life a quick Thank You for all they do to teach and inspire us!
