ONE

Gather a enamel paint suitable for glass and a foam stencil brush. Cut a stencil out of vinyl and place on clean jar.

TWO

Paint the stencil.

THREE

Before paint dries pull off the stencil. Add a gift tag and easy as 1-2-3 you have a great back to school gift for your teacher.

Paging Supermom is here to share a iTunes Gift Card Holder that is perfect for Teacher Appreciation Week!

iTunes Gift Card Holder

Hello! It’s Bettijo here from Paging Supermom to share a fun gift idea for Teacher Appreciation Day, which is coming up on May 3. When there’s time, I love to make homemade gifts — like this DIY star stamp or doodle bookmark. Yet sometimes things are just too stressful… am I right?

Gift cards are always appreciated, and now that you can grab them at the grocery store, they are super convenient too. Just grab a few iTunes gift cards, stick them on this cute, free printable gift card and you’re set.

I had the apple logo on the iTunes gift cards in mind when designing these cards, but you could use these to give teacher an Applebee’s gift card as well. There is absolutely no shame in giving this time-saving teacher appreciation gift, and I’m betting it ends up being one of teacher’s favorite gifts too!

TO MAKE: Download the iTunes Teacher Appreciation Gift Card template, and print in color on white cardstock. Two cards will print per page. Cut out each card then use double-sided tape to attach the iTunes Gift Card. These cars are designed to fit in an A2 envelope.

The schools around here celebrate for a whole week, and the homeroom moms even decorate the teacher’s door. Check out these door decorating ideas and here are a bunch more teacher appreciation gift ideas.

Hi friends! I am excited to share this bright and fun Printable Gift Card Holder with you today. I don’t know about you, but I love gift cards and I know that teachers do too! We wanted to give our teachers a fun ice cream gift card to start off their summer. This printable also works great with their favorite bakery, donut shop, or ice cream shop.

Here are the supplies you need to assemble your gift card holder:

• Printable Gift Card Holder Template (download here)
• bakers twine
• double sided tape
• scissors
• gift card of your choice

You’ll start by printing out your gift card holder on bright white cardstock. Now you’ll use scissors to cut out your holder on the outside lines only.

Insert your gift card and tie on some cute bakers twine as embellishment and you’re set!

Please welcome Kiki from Kiki and Company…

Hi everyone! Kiki from Kiki and Company and I am thrilled to be here to share another fun teacher appreciation gift idea. I love to give sweet and simple gifts..and it is really fun when I can wrap them up thoughtfully!

I LOVE this idea of a pizza box holding a sweet message, card and gift card for the teachers who have been so influential in my kiddos lives.

SUPPLIES FOR PIZZA BOX CARD

• Thank You Pizza Box Card Printables
• Scissors
• Glue
• Some sort of paper scoring tool

DIRECTIONS

1. Download, print and cut out printables. I printed mine on a gloss cover (heavy) cardstock which gave it some good weight.
2. Score on each of the white lines, cut on the red (wait on cutting out the red circle yet).
3. I always like to fold on my lines first, so do that over the whole card.
4. Start gluing on the little tabs part first. Fold them in, glue to the sides and then fold over the tops and glue the side flaps down.
5. Fold over the front panel and cut out the circle. This is easier to do right now. Place glue on the flap and secure it to make your box.
6. Glue in the two squares. I placed the “Any way you slice it..”on the lid and the gift card holder on the bottom. Glue the strap on the edges and place down over banner. This will now hold your gift card.
7. Fill it with a gift card to your favorite pizza shop or ANY fun gift card will work and give it to your favorite teacher!
8. You can tie it up with some cute string or use some washi tape to help it stay closed.
9. You are done!

Super cute, right?! And NO DOUBT they will feel so special.

Hope you have the loveliest ending of the school year! Thanks so much for having me, Cindy.

Please welcome Emily from Is This Really My Life…

Hi! My name is Emily and I blog all the things (but mostly food…and mostly desserts) over at Is This Really My Life. I am super excited to be guest posting on Skip to My Lou again, although I went a bit out of my comfort zone by doing something more on the crafty side. But it was totally worth it because this Lindt truffles teacher appreciation gift turned out pretty dang cute.

.

.

I mean, just look at the saying on the printable gift tag. How clever is that? And yes, I’m totally patting myself on the back because I usually deal in eggs, butter and sugar, not mason jars and gift tags.

.

.

What I love most about this teacher appreciation gift, aside from the tag, is how quick and easy it is. You need only five things:

• Mason jar
• Lindt truffles (assorted flavors)
• Foil cupcake liner
• White raffia ribbon
• Gift tag

.
That’s it! Assembling the teacher gift is a breeze.

1. Fill the mason jar with truffles.
2. Turn the cupcake liner upside down and center it over the lid; place the lid on top of the jar.
3. Hold liner and lid in place as you screw on the ring.
4. Wrap ring with white raffia ribbon and attach tag.

.
Seriously, how easy is that? It’s totally my kind of DIY teacher gift.

You can see how the red foil cupcake liner adds the right pop of color to the mason jar.

.

.

While we’re at it, let’s get a closeup of that super awesome gift tag.

.

.

Let’s not forget that mason jar is full of the most amazing candy. I could eat Lindt truffles by the bag full. Did you know they have a new coconut flavor? TO DIE FOR.

Teacher Appreciation Cards are the perfect way to say thank you, teacher.

Teacher Appreciation Week is the first full week in May. We have so many teacher gift ideas for Teacher Appreciation Week, the end of the school year, birthday or another special day, that you are sure to find the perfect way to celebrate your teachers.

Teacher Appreciation Gift Cards

I’m not always good at planning ahead when it’s time to give gifts. I want to make a big, impressive, straight-from-the-heart homemade craft project, but usually, run out of time and end up grabbing a gift card the day before. It can’t just be me who has this problem, right?!

These free printable Teacher Appreciation Week cards are for all of us crafty wannabes – the gals who love Pinterest but just can’t seem to make it to Michael’s in time. And, for us gals who have a sassy sense of humor. Now, without further ado… here are my free printable teacher appreciation day cards! I think they will be an appreciated gift that makes your teacher smile.

Printable Thank You Teacher Cards

These printable cards are the perfect thank-you for a teacher!  There are three designs so you can pick your favorite saying, or give them to different teachers. The red and orange one coordinates perfectly with a Target card, and the green and blue one goes great with a Starbucks gift card, but it’s really up to you.

And of course, making these cards is a cinch – just print the design of your choice onto white cardstock, cut the cards out, and adhere the back to the front (to add that extra-snazzy patterned back). Stick on your gift card, sign your name or leave a little handwritten note, and you’re good to go. If you need an envelope, these fit a standard A7 size envelope… or just go without an envelope, I won’t tell!

FREE Printable Teacher Appreciation Cards

Click here to download the free printable Teacher Appreciation Cards! I hope you enjoy the cards and that you get a few laughs too! Your teacher will so appreciate a gift card. You might also like these teacher gift card holders.

The text on these cards is so funny, with three narrowly averted craft project disasters – like “I almost gave you a life-size diorama of your classroom made out of crayons” – that will definitely make your teachers laugh. They’ve all been there, either getting overwhelmed with crafts themselves or getting… unique little gifts from their students over the years.

How about “I almost made you quadruple dark chocolate upside down bacon glazed cake pops” to poke fun at those of us who like to try experimental recipes found on Pinterest? They’ll be laughing with relief at the thought! And I’m pretty sure your teacher will appreciate an Amazon gift card even more after reading “I got out the Mod Podge, the Circuit machine, and thirty-two shades of glitter.”

Heather, from Chickabug, designed these cute teacher appreciation week cards. She designs and sells personalized paper goods and DIY party printables in the Chickabug shop.  Visit her for all sorts of other fun party, craft, and food-related things for every occasion.
