End of the Year Teacher’s Gift

I know… I know! Little Man is just 2 years old.
We don’t have any teachers in our lives right now.
And to be honest, I don’t even want to think of that phase of our lives yet!
But this is an idea I am bookmarking for the future Alison.
Teacher appreciation got my mind a-spinning with cute ideas for teachers. We can never show our teachers we care TOO much! Here is one gift I would have LOVED as a teacher for the end of the school year! It’s cute and meaningful–but useful, too. As the school year is wrapping up, here is one quick and easy teacher’s gift that is sure to show you care!
In the beginning, I wanted to do a typography with the message “2 Cool 4 School.” But duh, our teachers are totally cool, and we need them in our schools! Then I remembered my friend Amy’s adorable typography and realized that I could tweak this for a teacher’s gift, too!
The end of a school year is a bit of a rollercoaster for a teacher. This message is so fitting because after all, I really did worry that my students would forget me. This message hits home.
I’m proud to say that this gift is a cheapie! I bought this generic-brand hand sanitizer at the grocery store.
I was lucky to be able to peel the labels off easily. I was armed with my Goo Gone just in case, but this peeled off without any trouble at all.
After designing my vinyl in my Sure Cuts a Lot program, I cut the vinyl on my Cricut. I had some scraps of black vinyl on hand, so I used those. I also had a tiny scrap of red vinyl that I used for the numerals.

 

I always find that using contact paper is the easiest way to apply vinyl so it is not crooked!
I tied a red ribbon around the top, and
TA-DAH!
A quick and easy gift that shows your teachers how much you’ve appreciated them throughout the school year.
An A+ gift for sure!

Happy Monday!
