Hello Friends!

We are on the brink of one of the greatest times of the year… Back To School!!!!

My children head back to school on Monday and although they will be missed…  My house will be once again mine and my grocery bill along with all the other utilities will go down as well!

I know I’m not the only one that gets excited about this time! I am so in love with all the new school supply choices that come out every year! I mean seriously it makes me break out in a happy dance at whatever store we go into!

I wanted to share with you a couple of ideas for teachers gifts that I will be giving to our teachers this year. I love giving teacher’s relevant gifts that they can use every year.

I used this gift idea last year and it was such a hit that I wanted to share it with you all!

Kim from The TomKat Studio ( who is such a sweetheart and so inspiring! ) created this free printable last year.

Here is what you will need to make this teacher gift box:

– Gable boxes or any cute box of your choice

– Crinkle paper

– Cute ribbon

– Highlighters

– Free Printable Tag

– Any other cute things you’d like to put in. I love the Target Dollar Spot because you can find items that are both pretty and functional!

Assemble your box, place your crinkle paper in and arrange your contents in the way you’d like, close up your box, punch a hole in the tag, put a cute ribbon through it and tie the tag on the box and Voila you’ve got an easy and inexpensive teachers gift that any teacher would love to have!

If you’re feeling fancy, why not go ahead and add a pretty, personalized monogrammed cup because who doesn’t love a monogram unless you’re a guy! I purchased the cup for $3!

Where you ask?!

You guessed it… The Target Dollar Spot! Best idea ever!

I also used my trusty Silhouette Cameo to add a vinyl monogram and there you are instant cuteness!

So there you have it! Inexpensive and easy ways to bring a little sunshine to your child’s teacher at the beginning of the year! 

So if your child acts like they don’t have good parents, they’ll remember the gift you gave and understand, Hey they’re just having a bad day. Their parents really have taught them something ha!

A little gift goes a longggggg way! Trust me friends!!

I hope this inspired you to get to creating if you already haven’t! You still have time!

So until next time,

Make Pretty Stuff!

Love, Love Nicole
