I absolutely love this idea, and I think it would make an awesome and unique gift for my dd to take to her teacher during Teacher Appreciation week. I'm thinking I'll have to pick up the supplies the next time I'm at the craft store so that we can get started ahead of time. Then we can just grab the floral part when it's time to give the gift. Sweet!! Thanks for sharing the tutorial. =) Rebekah
