Gift for a Teacher: Garden Fresh Flowers

Keep it simple and fresh by cutting a few stems of flowers from the garden and placing them in a mason jar.

Bring your child into the garden with you and let him or her pick out the flowers. There's no right or wrong here - any flowers cut from a garden will look good together.

I love this natural look! It reminds me of my grammar school days, when kids would bring flowers to the teacher. A few stems of garden roses wrapped with a little aluminum foil seemed to have magical powers for both the giver and the receiver!
