DIY Back to School Gift Idea

Landyn is off to her first day of Kindergarden tomorrow, and we wanted to make a good impression off the bat. After all, we were crushing on her teacher back in June at the new student orientation, and after introducing ourselves and making it known she was our “favorite”, we got what we wanted.

I whipped together this pencil vase in 30 minutes, it was so easy. I’d give you instructions but it involves a square vase, hot glue, and number 2 pencils. I also tied it with a ribbon and tag that says “thank you for “picking” me, LOVE Landyn”. Pun intended.

Also, Trader Joes totally let me down in the flower department today. As you can see my tulips are droopy and sad and I might be making an early morning super market run for replacements.

Hope everyone’s kids are transitioning back to school well.
