Back to School Bouquet

The biggest news in my family this month is that my grandson has started kindergarten. He is very proud of the fact that he has to go to school all day, everyday, like how his mommy and daddy go to work. He loves telling us all about his new friends, teachers and class activities and we love hearing every detail. When he told me that it's his teacher’s birthday this week, I knew I had to create something special for him to give her.

Given that Apples are supposed to be the customary gift to give to teachers, it seemed imperative that I create an apple bouquet. The apple vase was easy. I carved a big apple to make a vase. I then filled it with some of my favorite flowers and a few vegetables to go with the fruit base. In spirit of the back to school season, I wanted to share this bouquet incase you wanted to give your favorite teacher an apple.
