Teacher Appreciation Gifts

Last week was Teacher Appreciation week.  I made two different gifts for our wonderful teachers.  Both ideas I posted on my party blog last week: http://partyrightnow.blogspot.com/.  The first one was a flower pot.  Original inspiration was:

The second gift was originally this idea:

When I saw this I really liked it, but I thought that preschool teacher's (at least the 2 year old class) didn't use too many pencils.  So I decided to make my bouquet with crayons.  I used a box around the house, stuffed with styrofoam.  I then cut out different flower petals and placed them on top of crayons and then stuck them in my box.  I then covered the box with pretty paper and ta-da a cute gift.
