I’m a former kindergarten teacher turned work-from-home mom. I still love sharing ideas and resources to make teaching easier, so you can focus on what really matters in the classroom. When I’m not working on the blog, you’ll find me chasing kids around the house with a cold cup of coffee in my hand (some things never change even once you’re out of the classroom!)

I love your idea! I was planning something very similar but use white canvas from Wal Mart as the background. I have a very small class so it’s not that expensive. Thanks for sharing!

Just say this post love this idea. Used just wondering for the vase did you trace that on scrap book paper then cut it out?
