    Re: Teacher Retirement Party
    Posted by Amy on 5/27/08

    These are good ideas! Also, for a teacher retirement party, you
    might want to look at this site:
    http://familycrafts.about.com/cs/applecrafts/l/blcpapple.htm
    Those little apples are easy to make, and make cute centerpieces.
    I've made them in the past, but have not used the spool on top. I
    just stuck a silk leaf (left over from previous projects) and a
    raffia bow on top with hot glue. After the party, they can be used
    for candy dishes, or paperclip holders, etc.

    Also, You can get a blackboard eraser, lay it flat on the table,
    with the felt part up. In between the layers of felt, you can stick
    one of those little blackboards (that are framed in unfinished wood)
    that you can buy at Hobby Lobby or Michaels or somewhere like that.
    Then you can write messages to the honoree, or you can have chalk
    available and the guests can write messages to the honoree. Also,
    depending on the crowd :o) It can be fun to cover the tables
    entirely with butcher paper or craft paper, and use crayons
    sprinkled down the center of the table as a runner....then guests
    can entertain themselves.

    I did this for a Jr High Principal's retirement. The teachers who
    attended had a lot of fun coloring, writing things, playing tic tac
    toe, etc. on the paper table coverings. Something for the kid in
    all of us.

    Hope you found something useful here! Good luck!
