School is almost out here. I think we might be the...very...last...kiddos...in school. Our last day is not until June 18th. Ugh! The boys aren't the only ones having a hard time staying focused on homework and finishing up the school year.
I've had it in my head that I was going to make each of the boys' teachers a simple beach blanket. But time is running short and to be honest, I haven't had time to brush my teeth. The blanket just wasn't going to happen.
And then yesterday, I saw Erin's teacher gifts... using her great coffee cozy tutorial she paired the cozy with a Starbuck's gift certificate and "wrapped" it in a coffee cup.
Brilliant!
I cut about 16 cozies out yesterday. The one above is only the first one finished. Today I need to go pick up some more hair ties so that I can finish the other 15. We don't have many hair ties around these parts with four men folk and me with new shorter summer hair.
Friends, these go together so fast and are a bit addicting. Its just the kind of thing you'd never make for yourself, but would love to receive as a gift, I think.
OK, gotta run to the coffee shop. Oh, and I just might have to grab a vanilla latte for myself while I'm there.
Yay for easy teacher gifts! And yay for coffee on a Wednesday morning. Happy Hump Day!
