Here are the gifts I made for my son's elementary school teacher. We had daily themes at our school which was very fun (see flyer below).
|
(Monday's theme is a "Flower and/or thoughtful note." Here's a note from my son and a package of Thin Mint cookies. My week is going to be too crazy to worry about a real live fresh flower.) |
|
(Tuesday's them is "Favorite Candy" - We weren't sure what her favorites were so we just threw in a couple kinds since we knew she liked chocolate) |
|
(Wednesday's theme is "Favorite Drink." This is a regular water bottle with decorative duck tape on it. I added cute ribbon on the top. We threw in some of those Crystal light flavor packets because they are easy to keep in a drawer at school to be added to water anytime.) |
|
(Thursday's them is "School Supplies." I decorated these gigantic paperclips so that the teacher could use them to group papers. The paper clips are about 4 inches tall and an inch wide.... not sure where to buy them since my mom gave these to me. Then I threw in some thank you cards because teachers go through lots of those!) |
|
(Friday's theme is "Favorite Pampering Item." These are some cute fluffy socks that I got in the dollar section at Target, well the $2.50 part of that section. I bought the shower gel on sale at Bath & Body Works. It helps to plan in advance. I buy things throughout the year when they are on sale.) |
|
(I got these cute boxes at the dollar section of Target a few months ago. It doesn't show it, but I added the daily theme signs to each box and attached them with a colored binder clip. My son will bring one gift each day. The teacher can also use these containers in her classroom later on if she chooses to.) |
|
(The boxes are cute with little handprints all over them.) |
An awesome idea and a great post!
