Two super quick back to school crafts...

I made this for my daughter's teacher in less than 10 minutes...I simply took this:
and added this:
and a tag with some ribbon and a apple die cute. Done! Cute hand sanitizer to keep on her desk.

I also wanted to share these fun crafts my daughter created herself. I got the plain white bracelets from Cord (they're made by Creative Imaginations in their Creative Cafe line). She added KI softies to create this one:
...and epoxy dots on this beauty...
Why not give them a try!

Enjoy your Wednesday!!

Great ideas!! My DD would love to do a bracelet like that, and that hand sanitizer is such a cute teacher idea! I think we'll be doing both!

Both ideas are so cute. Thanks Trish! Guess I will have to give my daughter my stash if KI softies now so she can make a cute bracelet too.

I love how you used the "You Rock" - I saw it at the store and kept thinking "What can I do with this???" - thanks for the idea.

The bracelet is adorable. The apple didn't fall far from the tree :)
