Hip Hip Hooray! It is almost Earth Day. We give Valentine treats to our loves on Valentines Day but we love them every day of the year. I think we should give Earth Day treats too and still keep loving Mother Earth every day of the year as well. Here are some ideas for you with a free sheet of printable tags you can download and use for personal use only.
For the Lilac Plant, I made a tag using burlap papers, buttons, floss, Aleene’s Tacky Glue and Collage Pauge. I cut the squared out in ascending order. I glued the burlap pieces together and then added the paper square then spread a thick layer of Collage Pauge on top before adding the buttons and punching the hole!
Cute, right?
To make the bag, I used Aleene’s Tacky Glue to attach a thick band of ribbon and buttons from my Buttons Galore and More Collection in Candy Apple Green and Robins Egg Blue.
I filled the bag with soil and seed packets and ta-da, it is an awesome Earth Day gift for a neighbor, friend, teacher or scout leader.
Jordan made 23 grass seed gifts for her classmates using the gift tags and packaging a pre-made mix that we bought at Home Depot.
They are totally adorable. We added a little note that tells what is in the grass mix with directions for planting too.
She has already started one. There may be snow on the ground outside but grass is growing in our home.

Happy Celebrating Mother Earth,

Love this, and the whole idea behind it!
