Note: The saying can be typed on your computer and printed on brown paper, handwritten or to make it easy I have updated a printable seed packet to use.

How to Assemble

1. Grab some twine and tie around the top. Attach flower and leaves with glue gun.

Paint the bucket with paint. Be sure to make sure the paint is for metal so it is durable.
Once the bucket is dry add twine and silk flower for embellishment. This can be attached to the top with hot glue.
Add a chalkboard label to the front of the bucket and add your teacher’s name or a big thank you. Labels can be cut with the Cricut and chalkboard vinyl or purchased from a craft store. The teacher’s name can also be easily added with a paint pen.

4. Next, cut up a paper bag and print the saying “Teachers plant the seeds of knowledge that will grow forever!” onto it in any font you’d like. Yes, you can insert it right into your printer…crinkle and iron to give it that distressed look!

4. Staple seed packets on the back of paper and place everything into the bucket!

Teachers can use this bucket all year long and label it whatever they’d like with the chalk label! Perfect gift for any teacher!
