teacher appreciation week :: easy idea

Posted on May 5, 2015June 9, 2015 by Ginny

Did Teacher Appreciation Week sneak up on you like it did me? I have to keep things simple because I have too much to juggle most days. Also, I’m not crafty. Here is a honest to goodness easy (& CHEAP) gift idea. Your child’s teacher might appreciate that it’s zero calories too.

Every time I see a pack of cute towels at Costco I grab them. Not only are they good quality (Kirkland brand), but they make a great gift when paired with a cute bottle of soap. Lucky for me, Target had Method soap on sale last week so I stocked up my gift cupboard. It made an already cheap gift cheaper. Then I searched the internet and spent too much time trying to decide which free printable to use, but ended up with THIS one from Eighteen25. I printed it on cardstock and cuz I was really feeling fancy, I used my corner rounder and hole punch to give the tag a more finished look.

I’m not going to show up the moms making lavender bath salts from scratch and putting it in a cute labeled mason jar….you know who you are…{{cough-Kelly-cough}}….yes I’m jealous of my fellow contributor on The Simple Moms. In a good way. 🙂 I’m just happy I was able to give my kids teachers a gift this year. I have zero recollection of doing anything last year. After having a child home sick for the past week, I am even more thankful for his teacher because I am struggling to get him through his makeup work. I’m so thankful for the teachers that influence, love, and guide my kids each and every day.

    This would also be great attached to a bottle of hand sanitizer. My neighbor teaches 2nd grade and she would be thrilled with either one!

    What a great idea, I may have to do this for our preschool teachers at the end of the year.

    I love this idea for a teacher gift, I always feel really crafty until I need a gift like this.

    I’m like you… my craftiness runs in waves and usually doesn’t happen when I need a gift for someone. 😉 I was actually thinking about what to get my daughter’s preschool teacher just this morning and this looks perfect! Thanks for the idea (and the printables)!

      We are kindred spirits Keara. You said it so perfectly..”craftiness runs in waves”. Made me lol. I think I was giving myself a bigger high five for having a gift on Monday instead of 2 weeks after teacher appreciation. I’m super amazed by the moms that have it all together, I’m hit and miss.
