Teacher Appreciation Gift May 24, 2008
Materials List
*Canvas tote bag, blue
*Iron-on letters, red
* Assorted grosgrain ribbon, 1 yard pieces
* 2 buttons
* Scissors
* Iron
* Heat’nBond®
* Fabric glue
* Ruler
Step 1
Parents, follow directions on the iron-on letters package to personalize the bag.
Step 2
Follow the directions on Heat’nBond® tape and iron ribbon onto the bag as desired. We stacked narrow ribbon on top of wider ribbon for a coordinated look. Add ribbon to the top band of the bag.
Step 3
To make a flower, cut 3 pieces of ribbon 6-inches long. Make a closed loop and secure with glue. Stack 3 together to shape bow, securing with glue. Glue buttons to the center of the bow and glue bow to bag as shown.
Tip:
Start your ribbon in center back, bring around front and around to back. Secure ends with craft glue to keep from fraying. This gives you a great finished look
This looks like FUN to make with the kids. Teachers always need a something to put all those papers they need to grade in!
