take a look {easy mother's day craft}

Mother's Day is right around the corner,so I thought I'd share this cute & easy Mother's Day gift idea that the kiddos could definitely help out with.These could also be used for Teacher Appreciation gifts, Get Well Wishes,Birthdays....use your imagination. :) 

You will need:

tissue paper

a clean tin can

scissors

photo stickers

jumbo popsicle sticks

green paint

paint brush

ribbon

green Easter grass

You will also need some pictures of flowers & leaves.

(You could just as easily free hand these, too.)

I got my clip art from DJInkers.

(Love them!)

Paint your popsicle sticks green,

and set them aside to dry.

Color your flowers.

(This is the part the kids

really like to help out on!)

Then cut out your flowers & leaves.

I printed out a message to put on the flowers,

or have your kiddos write a personalized note on each one.

(Grandma, would love that!) :)

Assemble your flowers.

I used these photo stickers

to assemble my flowers.

Love them.

Quick & easy and

no mess!

Yay! :)

Next, stuff your tin can

with left over Easter grass.

Stick your flowers into the can.

Arrange them how you want them.

Cut a piece of

tissue paper in half,

then set your can in the middle.

Gather the tissue

around the can &

tie with a piece of ribbon.

Cut about 5 strands of ribbon

using ribbon that matches

your tissue paper & flowers.

Tie a knot around your can

& curl your ribbon with a pair of scissors.

You're done!

Enjoy! :)
