TLC115 - End of the School Year Gifts
TLC115: End of the School Year Gifts
The end of the school year is rapidly approaching! Teachers, bus drivers, administration staff, counselors and everyone else at the school work so hard all year long, and they deserve a small token of our appreciation. A hand-stamped gift is sure to earn you an A+! And it doesn't have to be elaborate to be a perfect gift.
Here are just a few items I found in the gallery for your inspiration. If you go to Anything but a Card, there are lots and lots more goodies of all kinds for your viewing pleasure. There are so many awesome creations!
Mine (I made this for a bake sale, but I might make some more! Quick and Easy!).
Bambi64 beautiful note cards
dfaust very creative candy jar!
ladyofleisure a charming assortment of gifts
scrapqueen another charming gift ensemble
Please upload your gift into the appropriate category in “Anything But a Card” and use the keywork TLC115.
Have fun!

Great challenge Beth. I could almost sit this one out.  Thanks for showcasing my set.
No offense ladies, but just cause your kids are out of grade school doesn't mean that a favorite middle school/high school teacher wouldn't love a set of notecards or something small.

Beth, you read my mind. I was making a list of everything I need to do this week and teacher gifts were a high priority. Thanks for the challenge and the samples to get my creative juices going.

Great challenge, Beth. My kids are in college, so I certainly don't need teacher gifts, but could use a hostess gift for my Friday workshop. For those of you with HS kids, just be sure it's ok with them before you give a gift to the teacher. You really don't want to totally embarrass them in front of their friends.
Oh, and may we have the recipe, please, Beth?

DD had a Male student teacher a few years ago. We (k, I) gave him one of those acylic frames with the post it notes attached. I used a fishing stamp that I had and put his name at the bottom. He still uses it today (he now has a postion at the school). I know we gave him more stuff but for the life of me, I can't rememeber what. I do know he saved all the cards that we had made for him. Don't forget that just cause he is a male, he is still a teacher and still needs to send notes home, etc. so any kind of note pad/card/postit note set, etc would work. Use a sport stamp set. If I think of what we did do for the teacher, I'll pm you.

My son's teacher is young and male too, I found out his favorite candy is Resse's Peanut butter cups, so I am going to make him a big plastic container covered with paper, and just filled with all kinds of resse's in it, the big ones, the little ones, the huge ones, etc!  I know he will love them!
