Re-potted flower gift

 I just wanted to send out a follow up to the  post of re-potting your perennials for gifts.

You can do the same with the extra herb or annual flowers you started from seed and don't want to throw out.

Here is a photo of the gift going out to my kids teachers as a little extra treat in addition to the group gifts I already contributed to.  

  I added a tag to describe the type of flower and general care.  I simply used a "Business Card" format on a Word Document. I found some details of the flower on the web and highlighted some general care instructions.  

                             

Then simply cut out the cards and glue onto a Popsicle stick or skewer.  Wrap the container in some tissue paper and you have an instant gift that keeps on growing!!

If you don't have extra plants around the house, buy a plant at a nursery or home improvement center.  Use the label as a thank you card for your teacher or friend.

If you would like the formatted label document, just let me know and I will email it to you. All you will need to do is paste the correct care information for the flower of choice.

When I figure out how to paste documents onto the blog it will make it easier!
