This would be cool to use at the receptionist desk....instead of the plastic flower she taped to the pen so it wouldn't get lost!

This flowery bouquet, with pencil stems, is a fun teacher gift, but it's perfect for anyone whose desk needs brightening up! (And you're less likely to lose your pencils if they have cheery flowers on the ends of them!)
You can customize your flowers with any 12x12 patterned paper you have on hand. Paper with pattern on both sides works best.
Supplies I used:
-patterned paper (I used My Mind's Eye Lime Twist)
-Glue Dots, and/or two-sided tape
-buttons or brads
-pencils
-stapler
-hot glue gun

Ok, maybe I will have everything I need for this one. That is if I can find my pencil.

do you have your paper handy? Here we go. First, trim three strips of paper 9x1 inch.

Love these, and I actually have all the supplies. May have DD make a few to go along with her teacher's year-end gift if I can master them. Thanks for another awesome class, Kristin!

I really hope you're all having a great time! And if you're in this class, let us know! Heidi will be picking a random winner ...
Nest step: trim three strips of a different paper 6x.5 inch.

I'm here. A little slow since I am working with band-aid fingers (don't try to catch the X-Acto when you drop it), but definitely working on these.

I found that it helps to roll the smaller strips between your fingers to slightly curl them. This will help them to bend, rather than fold, during the next two steps.
