Bus Driver Gift Printable

{The Bus}
How many bus rides do you think you've had in your lifetime?  If you grew up riding the bus like I did there's probably too many to count!  {And more learned about the "real world" than I ever dreamed of...but that's an entire post in itself!:)}

And what about those bus drivers?  Ever think about them?


Well, I've started to ever since my little guy has started riding the bus to school. We are trusting these people with our precious children...on the road...and we all know what that's like!

And what do you give them to show your appreciation? At the end of last week I mentally went through my cupboards and fridge, and this is what I came up with. Who couldn't use a nice cold water on warm fall day?!


{Simple}
All you have to do is download these sweet little buses, print & cut them out, and wrap them around a water bottle! {These labels are 1 1/2 inches. Just be sure to take the original wrapper off of your water bottle 1st.}
And drum roll please...


Tah Dah! I'm sure they would work for teachers too! Add a pencil, apple, or something else "teacherish"!


{Sidebar}
And just a little pareting tip for ya.  When your kindergartener comes home after his 1st week of school and asks how often he'll be going to school, DON'T say, "Well, pretty much everyday except Sat/Sun and summers until you graduate from college." 

Take it from me...it doesn't go over well.:)  I guess I'm out of the running for mom of the year...again.;)

Twig Decoration Tutorial

{Hands down}
There is no excuse for anyone who likes these little twig decorations not to make them.  Its pretty much the EASIEST, CHEAPEST, & SWEETEST project you'll ever make. Hands down.

Sticks are everywhere.  Don't say "I live in the city, so blah, blah."  I'm not having it.  I saw sticks everyday when I lived and walked around all in the "inner city" of Paterson, NJ.  Okay, maybe not every day, but I'm sure you can find a park somewhere...anywhere.;) 


This is a simple tutorial.  In fact, so simple the pictures tell the story.  So here you have it.  Go start collecting twigs people.
