Cute gifts :)

First off, I know my blog is messed up again. Everything is showing up on the bottom and not the right-hand side. This drives me nuts because I have to scroll the whole way down to blog stalk. Egh, what a lazy butt I am.

I wanted to share the cutest gift idea. (super cheap too-about 70 cents a gift) :)
No-sew flowers...


Belly+ Supplies:

-Fabric Strips: 2 inches width X 14.5 inches length
-fold over a few times, then cut tops (see below)
-wooden sticks (can be found in the wood section at the fabric store; 1.00 for a bag of 20!
-hot glue
-newspaper for wrapping (optional). If you want to go even fancier, you can get a vase or just tie with ribbon too

They do look adorable in this little vase...
All divided up for Avery's teachers. It was teacher appreciation lunch and we had to supply a dish. I thought these were perfect to give to the teachers at their lunch. To keep it even cheaper, I used the scrap fabric to tie instead of ribbon. I think it compliments the flowers well.
