Simple and Cute ways to show your appreciation

I have been so busy that I have just now found the time to get pictures off my camera to share these cute projects with you. This fist one we gave our daycare provider for Valentine's Day. It was really simple I bought a metal pail from the $ bin at Target and using my Cricut machine and vinyl I gave it a stylish heart. Inside I filled it with a few bottles of root beer, some cupcakes and voila a cute, simple gift. She really liked it too.

I also made me this cute little tray with my Cricut and Alayna's hands. I like it so much I still haven't put it away.

For a special treat I gave these trail mix snack bags to my students. All you need is a pack of clothes pins, googly eyes, pipe cleaner and glitter glue. This will make the body of your butterfly. For my trail mix I used all fruit, cheerios and yogurt chips. Put about a 1/3 cup into a snack size bag. Let all the air out and scrunch in the middle to make the wings. These were a big hit both cute and delicious! I can't take all the credit for this one though I got the idea from Family Fun.

Second grade is always responsible for administrators day, which means me. So this year I decided to give them a cake pop bouquet. Thank you Bakerella for this scrumptious recipe. My household loves them. I chose to use a vanilla cake this time and make many different flavors with different frosting's. Cherry, lemon and vanilla. YUM!!
