Hello there~ My sister came over to my place today. She is very excited about a church calling she has teaching the little 4 year old Sunbeams in Primary. Her first lesson, she wanted to make real special and it’s on “Being Thankful for plants, trees, and flowers.” She wanted to do some kind of flower in her recycled baby food jars, and give them to the sweet kids. I told her to come over and we will cut out flowers and circles from my cricut and glue them to sticks, with tags and ribbon. She came over and we got busy. The flowers were from the cartridge accent essentials, and the circles and tags were from platinum schoolbook! All you will do once everything is cut, is glue them together, as well as tie the tags to the colored sticks.

me and the sis have a blast crafting with eachother. We worked well together putting this craft together, and we sure have fun doing it.

supplies you will need: small styrofoam balls, baby food jars, green shredded paper, scrappaper
(cardstock) in your choice, glue stick, green crayon, ribbon, craft sticks, and a black pen. We colored the sticks with green crayon on both sides. You can paint them with acrylic paint if you want. We were saving time!

its easiest if you take the shredded paper and wrap it around the styrofoam, almost like making a nest around it. Then you will push it down into the jar, and cover the top. Then you will stab the stick flower down in the styrofoam.

hot glue the colored stick(s) under the flowers, you want to carefully pinch the paper to the stick for a second or two.

AND HERE THEY ARE all FINISHED!!!

Love the polkadots and colors, both sis and I were tickled and giggly and girly and annoying about them. HA!

pretty maids in a row!

I put them in a basket for my sis, to make it easier for her to carry them.

Here we are with our finished project!
