Emma's Gift....

 Here's Emma holding the gift she made her mother for Mother's Day. We had to start early, because I helped her , while she was here.

 Screw three international coffee cans to a board. Try to have all the seams on one side...you know, like I didn't do. Doh ! Paint with craft paint, any color. We chose yellow orange, to go with the violas I had . You may have to do 3 coats.....this is the first one.

When it's dry, put some small plants in the cans. Emma put a teddy bear in the center one, along with a bit of pachy sandra. Then tie a ribbon around the cans. We used the burlap ribbon I had bought at Horton's . I may make more of these...although now international coffees come in a plastic can. I think it would still work. xoxo
