Spruce up store-bought flowers

This week is Teacher Appreciation Week at Jaxon and Maya's elementary school. 
We are always looking for unique ways to appreciate the teachers. 
This year we decided to go with long-stemmed flowers versus a bouquet of roses or carnations. 


I purchased this Gladiolus bundle at Trader Joes for only $5.99 for 12 stems.
I created two bundles of 6 for both my children's teachers.  


I simply wrapped them with decorative paper, tied with hemp string, and attached a little note for the kids to sign. Voila!~ easy and beautiful bouquets.
