Oh you guys! I have found the most adorable teacher gift! I found it on Dannie’s Designs, and tweaked it a little bit to be more my style. It is a booklet of gift cards. Now don’t get excited… I went with $5 gift cards for each section, so it doesn’t have to get expensive.
On the cover, I wrote “How will Miss Butterfield spend her summer?” and tried to make it all cutesy with a lopsided bow:
Then inside, I pasted fun summer ideas along with a little envelope in which to slip the gift card into.
Here are the individual pages and the corresponding gift cards:
BARNES AND NOBLE
COLDSTONE CREAMERY
MEGAPLEX THEATERS
OLIVE GARDEN
BATH AND BODY WORKS
Isn’t this the most adorable idea? And the best part is that I can save these images on my computer, and in just a few minutes, duplicate this gift for next year’s teacher. And the one after that, and the one after that… Really, until I find another cuter idea, this will be my go-to teacher gift! So simple!

Damn the luck!]]>

< ![CDATA[What a great idea! I love it. If you don't mind, I'm going to steal it for 1) my kids teachers' gifts and 2) my blog - crediting you of course! I have an "I'm Stealing It!" segment and this is such a great idea I feel I must tell everyone.]]>
