I ♥ My Teacher Blog Hop


Hi everyone and welcome to this totally fun Hop.  Its back to school and what better way to honor our teachers past, present, or future than with a homemade gift.    Thanks to Abby for letting mt take part in this hop.  You should have arrived here from Maria's blog.  If not feel free to start at the beginning of the hop with Abby by clicking HERE.


What is a teachers desk without a tissue box.  Yep I made another one.  I really love altering tissue boxes.  This one is removable so that you can change it out for whatever season you desire.

I used some DCWV  fall paper.  Cut it to size making creases at all 4 corners.  used ATG tape to adhere the paper to itself.  I constructed a lid for the box measuring out the top and leaving an inch on all sides.   Cutting flaps on the sides of the paper lid and gluing them down to make the top.  Hot glue was used to add all of the embellishments.  The pine cone are from my backyard. lol
  Hope you are enjoying the hop.  Your next stop is Michelle.  Click Here to head on over. :D
