Easy Peasy Valentine's Day Gift

It's my opinion that teachers never get enough love, so tomorrow I am sending Weston to school with a small thank-you gift for the three teachers he has that day.  Not only is this an easy gift, but it is also inexpensive and cute.  [Don't peek, Ekanela!]


Step 1:  Buy some cute flat-backed buttons at Walmart in the sewing notions section. These are called Button Conversations from Blumenthal Lansing Company. They come in packs of three for $1.96.




Step 2: Buy some adhesive-backed button magnets from Walmart in the craft section.
 

Step 3: Stick the magnet on back of the button. Voila! A cute gift for not a whole lot of money.
 


I wrapped them in tissue paper and tied it with Valentine ribbon.  Share the teacher-love!

    Auntie M: Thank you! I'm not quite on Jill's level of crafty, cute and clever, but I'm working on it! :)

    ekanela: I am glad you liked them and still do like them! Even though they are very cheap, the love behind them is not! :)

You won't be paid for it, but at least you'll know that you have contributed intelligence to the universe...
