About last week at this time I realized every year of elementary school my mother would send me to school with a potted plant or two depending on how many teachers I had. Every year I gave my teachers a potted plant. Which mean my son needed a christmas present for his teachers! Ahh, what was I going to do? My mom would have told me to go buy a potted plant, live flowers are pretty much her advice on everything. But kill all live plants, so I couldn't in good conscious give J's teachers one. Instead I made a hostess apron for them, because thats what I do. My mom takes care of live plants, and I make aprons. I also didn't have time to go to the store so I had to figure out what I had on hand that would work. This is all I could come up with. I like it.
Time was growing short, and I didn't have any other material that matched in a big enough piece, so instead of making a second for the assistant teacher I gave her this one. I'm super lame, I know. But she is young and thin, so I figured she could work it. I had two aprons with the same material and I never ever wore this one except for the picture, so I did give her a new apron. J also picked out hand soap for the teachers because he wanted to give them soap with the apron. I don't know what is acceptable present, I didn't know if just hand soap worked?!
