I decided I wanted to give out first day of school goodie bags to my students. I saw these super cute paper bag owls on pintrest ( trophyw.blogspot.com ). They were very simple to make and I think they turned out great. I used brown paper bags and trimmed the top to a point. I then raided my supply of scrapbook paper and found some cute prints for the belly. I then cut out the eyes and beak. It did take some trial and error to make it look cute and not mean. I think they turned out adorable. Of course to go with with my theme of not being able to finish a project I only had 12 of the 20 paper bags I needed. So I will have to finish them at a later date. I did cut out all the pieces so they will be easy to finish.
Next I needed to decide what I would fill them with. I found this cute poem about the goodies in the bag ( ateacherstreasure.com ) I edited it to fit the treats that I am going to fill it with. I also called it Kindergarten is a Hoot to go with my owl theme! I am excited to finish them and get is all set and ready to go! I can't believe school is 3 weeks away!
