It's the end of the school year and to show our appreciation for Bijou's teachers I made some patchwork eye pillows and had Bijou help me make our own gift wrap made from apple stamps. Her teachers spent the majority of the year with 16 three-year-olds so I hope they find a lot of time to relax this summer and make good use of these eye pillows.
I attempted this project over the weekend and Bijou pitched a fit about wanting to eat the apple rather than stamp the apple. We tried again this afternoon with success!
We used red acrylic paint.
Imperfection gives it character.
I drew little stems in with a colored pencil to help it look more like teacher appreciation gift wrap and less like Valentine's Day gift wrap.
so cute and I am sure the teachers LOVED them- Bijou is a lucky girl to have a mom like you!
