TEACHER APPRECIATION GIFTS #1 & #2

The boys' Elementary school is celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week this week.  Our fabulous PTA sent out a theme for each day to help parents with ideas.  Monday was 'bring your teacher flowers' day.  Typically I would jump right on the flower bandwagon, it is Spring after all, but this year a veered off the path a little. 

I found these colorful watering cans at Target and couldn't resist them.


Although they are quite cute on their own I decided they needed a little something.  I used my Silhouette to make some vinyl letters, added them to the watering cans and presto! 


Now they have something cute to water all of the beautiful flowers they received (and this won't die).

Today is 'bring your teacher supplies' day.  Since I am all about giving the teachers things that are cute and useful, these stamps were just perfect.


These cute stamps came from Pick Your Plum.  I added an ink pad and some blank note cards to complete. 


You can see the Teacher Appreciation gifts we gave last year

What great gifts! My kids took their teachers note pads and chocolates, but I promised them I'd get my act together to do something home made for end-of-year gifts. I'm definitely going to check out the site where you bought those stamps, too!
