Hello!!
Its that time of year again when
Aaaaanyway ..... I had to come up with 4 gifts for Jake to give out. One for his teacher, one for his helper, one for the classroom assistant and one for the lady who runs the Breakfast Club. Phew!!
I had been given some old "Carte Blanche" gift boxes that had been 'written off' from work and decided to have a go at making them more personal.
the box on the right is the original 'old' box |
As the glue dried they began to look great but I made the mistake of trying one of the lids on too soon. I had to start again with that one! I am going to buy some special chocs to go in the boxes & probably put a little tag on too. I know the teachers will love these as a gift & they also get to use the box as a pencil/pen pot :) Result!
Do you spend loads on teachers gifts or are you a 'make do & mend' kinda gal like me?
If you are in the teaching profession have I put my foot in it?
I seriously would hate anyone to think I'm being less than grateful :(
THANKYOU TEACHERS xx
ETA oops I forgot to say the fairy hearts were cut from a Juicy Lucy calendar :)
Beautiful boxes :) the perfect gift!
ReplyDeleteI am a teacher, & whilst recieving a gift is lovely, it's not expected. I do however teach secondary so primary may well be different. I was shocked to read that some mums buy Willows for gifts! £20 thats OTT! The thought counts and really a beaming smile& a genuine Thank you for your help Miss, is worth so much ! :))
