Teacher Appreciation Week - Day 1

If you follow me on Instagram & Twitter, then a little birdie

told you that I'd be doing a week of Teacher 

Appreciation Gift ideas starting today...I made the banner

above for my kids school. They are doing a Pirate Theme 

this week but I had already purchased my kids gifts before

I knew that...oops!

Today we have Day 1:

I love putting together themed gifts so always keep my 

eyes peeled for fun containers, or ideas. 

Since summer is right around the corner, what better

way to celebrate your favorite teacher than with a bit

of summer cheer?! 

I picked up the watering can from the Target $1-3 section

at the front of the store...the shredded paper I already had

on hand. A few packets of flower seeds (also from Target)

and I kept my eyes peeled for other items to fit into the 

watering can whenever I ran errands. A pair of gardening 

gloves from a grocery store, as well as a bottle of sunscreen.

The shovel I found at Tuesday Morning, they always have

fun items there...

I stamped the You're Amazing stamp onto white cardstock, 

cut it out and layered it onto a strip of designer paper. A

bit of washi tape adds a fun touch and won't leave sticky

residue on the can once it gets put to use.

Come back tomorrow to see another fun teacher

gift idea...
