Easy Mother's Day Gift

My kids brought home this lovely home-made creation from an after school club* this week-they were so excited to give them to me and I love them!  The jars are pretty and they even match the new colors in our living room! 

They recycled jars which they filled with various amounts of sand, pebbles, sea glass, shells & grass (make sure the grass isn't near the candle!)  

I hope everyone has a great Mother's Day!!!

*Thanks to my friend Molly who runs the club & always comes up with great ways to keep the kids engaged & for the great gift!!!
