Teacher Gifts from Pinterest

The first day of school was quickly approaching and my mind was racing... what to make the new teacher. What better way to get the creative juices flowing then to log into Pinterest...I hit the jack pot, I found this tutorial on how to make these cute little Post-It note pad holders.

I had these cute little gifts ready for Josh's teacher... then we went to Meet the Teacher Day... Let’s just say that Mr. Powers isn’t the crafty type. The remaining Teacher gifts this year will be more male focused.

 



Here is the link to the tutorial on Pinterest... Gotta give credit where credit is due :) This is the link to my Pinterest but in the top right corner it will take you to the original post.

Cute Teacher Gifts

Hello again !!

While sitting at an assembly at my sons school, I ran into one of the teacher and saw this cute bookmark... so I decided I was going to "Craft Lift" and make it myself... but improve it. Instead of using stamps I used cricut cuts from Doodlecharm , Locker Talk and CTMH Art Philosophy, a 4" paperclip and some magnetic close pins from Office max. Added a bit of Ribbon... and viola... cute teacher bookmarks and magnetic clips.

P.S.  Josh's teacher LOVED these too..

Teachers Appreciation Gift

Good Morning,

While I was at Cropping Daze Scrapbooking Retreat in Chesaning Michigan having a WONDERFUL weekend with my peeps.. we were listening to the radio and heard that Teachers Appreciation week is coming.. wanting to see when exactly it was, I googled it and found out that Teacher's Appreciation week is May 7th - May 11th, so when I needed a break from doing my layouts and wanted to just create something fun and new, I decided to create a little gift for my sons teacher. I used the CTMH Art Philosophy Cartridge and created some pretty flowers with dum dum suckers as the centers. I took the cute little flower pots that I found  at the store and painted the with Chalkboard paint, added the flowers and some floral stuff in the pot. Topping it off with some cute ruler ribbon along the edge. Once at home my son and I used chalk to add a cute little note for her.

When I dropped him off at school this morning, we gave it to her and she LOVED it... hopefully you will too.
