    A Giving Tree-

    Who says money doesn't grow on trees? Sow a giving tree by surrounding a potted plant â€" we used a schefflera â€" with a grouping of card stock envelopes shaped like flowers. In the openings, slip gift cards donated by students in the class, then ask each contributor to write a short thank-you note on theirs.
    Materials
    Needle-nose pliers
    Floral wire (we used 18-gauge)
    Card stock
    Envelope template
    Glue
    Houseplant
    Instructions
    1. To make each stem, use the pliers to bend the end of a length of floral wire into a spiral.
    2. For the envelope, download our template. Fold the card stock, then trace and cut out a flower, as shown. Glue the edges to form a pocket.
    3. Push the stems into the soil and add a flower with a gift card to each. less
