OK, OK, Teachers I heard you load and clear.. no more mugs, bath & body works (which I don’t use) and cheeky “teacher” stuff. You want money and stuff you can use, got it! Now for those of us who still like to give a GIFT I had to think outside of the box, talk with a bunch of teachers and get some ideas that you may have NEVER SEEN BEFORE!
I’ve been told that certain areas do have cost restrictions on gifts so I limited everything to under $30. As a working mom I also want easy so after each gift idea I tried to add some cute gift tag idea!
