About a month ago, I found this lovely teacher gift idea at one of my favorite blogs,
Bee in our Bonnet
So I made my own for a couple of my closest teacher friends.
This project takes no time at all, and is really cheap. These are my materials:
I used the fishing boxes from Walmart (less than $5.00) and spent $5.00 at Staples on the items below. I split them though between the two kits.
I also bought 2 bags of candy at Walmart for about $5.00 as well.
I just used the Starbursts and kisses though... I saved the Lifesavers for myself.... and my husband :) |
I added a little Anti-bac that I had bought at Bath and Bodyworks a long time ago. It fit perfectly. So now I needed labels. At Bee in our Bonnet she has a template you can download, but it didn't work very well for me, so I made my own using Printshop. LOVE IT!!!!!!! You have to get one!!! Cheap and does TONS of stuff...
Anyway.... I used one sheet of card stock and made 2 labels on the one sheet. Then I cut them with my new trusty tool from Hobby Lobby.
Then I used that Crafty glue I have a love hate relationship with (it is becoming more loving however) to glue my label onto my red card stock.
Trim the left overs and you have a wonderful label. Then I put some adhesive on the back of the red card stock and attached it to my kit. I didn't want to go out and buy more ribbon, but I had some Christmas red ribbon, which I felt was just as good.
Add a little bow and you have a great gift for any friend!!! I think I am going to use this idea again at Christmas....
Happy Crafting!!!!!
I have seen this on Pinterest as well and think it is an adorable idea. I am getting a student teacher in October and think this would be a cute welcoming gift.
