I personally have so many of these people in my circle that I would love to thank. It seriously takes a village! This gift is so simple to put together, but is so cute! You really can’t go wrong with it!

We went on our first family cruise together this year.  It was amazing. We invited my sisters and both of their families. It was seriously a dream come true. But let’s be honest. Planning a trip for such a big family can be a little chaotic. My sisters came up with this gift idea to thank me for being the designated trip coordinator. Isn’t it so fun?! But most important, it’s SIMPLE .

Chaos Coordinator Gift:

This perfect chaos coordinator gift is a perfect thank-you for teachers, friends, neighbors, family, etc. You could give this to practically anyone and I’m sure that they will love it!

Supply List:

• Cute tumbler
• Mini candies to fill the bottom
• Tissue paper
• Skewers
• Packaging tape
• Their favorite candy bars / candy
• Gift cards (optional)

Once you have all of your supplies you can get to work! You can fill the bottom of the tumbler with the mini candies that you chose. Mine was filled with Hi-chews! (That always seems like a good option.) Then take your tissue paper and put it on top of the tumbler. Then it’s as simple as taping the rest of the candy and gift cards to individual skewers, and poking the skewers through the tissue paper and into the candies for support.

Super simple, right!? Now all you have to do is add some ribbon and this cute tag.

I have it all ready for you to print. Just right click and save to your computer, then open in a program like Word or Pages and size how you want, then print.

Chaos Coordinator Gift Tag:

Have FUN giving this chaos coordinator gift!

When my kiddos were little I spent a LOT of time volunteering at our elementary school. It seemed like I was always looking for cute and simple ways to thank other people for helping me with various tasks. Because I was super busy I needed simple and quick ideas and I seemed to always land on these clever candy puns. They seriously couldn’t be easier and who doesn’t love candy?

Clever Candy Puns:

Aren’t these so fun? What I love most about using fun candy sayings is how simple they are. Just pick your favorite candy and print out the tag that I have all ready for you, then you are set to go! And if you need a little more than candy to say thank you, simply add a gift card. This in one of my go-to’s for teacher appreciation week because it so easy.

Let’s take a closer look at the candy puns you have to choose from. Look for your favorite and print the tags.

When you find the tag you love simply right click, save to your computer and then open in a program like Word or Pages on your computer, size how you want and print.

Our world changed about a year ago when we brought home thee cutest little bernedoodle puppy. She quickly became part of the family. And in a family full of rough and rowdy boys, she sure has taught them to be soft and loving. To put it simply, she is the BEST!

So, when we had to leave her home from a family vacation we were so thankful for my cute niece who volunteered to come and watch her. And to thank her properly, I put together this super cute gift basket for dog sitters and dog walkers. It’s a perfect gift for anyone who is lending a hand in keeping our furry best friends happy!

Fun Gift for Dog Walkers:

If you own a pet you have probably relied on extra help from others. Whether it’s a dog walker, pet sitter, groomer or your veterinarian it takes a village to make sure our furry best friends are being well taken care of. So why not thank them with this cute gift idea for pet caregivers.

And this tag is perfect for any gift you want to give. You can add to a gift basket like I have shown here, or even just add it to a gift card or money. It is really easy to say “thank-you” with this fun idea.

Suggestions for Gifts:

• Money
• Gift Cards
• Treats
• Soaps/Lotions
• Blanket
• Water Bottle
• Candle

For this cute basket I gathered gift cards from some local restaurants because my niece was staying at our house to watch our puppy. But you can customize it with anything and then simply add the free printable tag.

Simply right click and save it, open in a program like Word or Pages on your computer, then size how you want, and print.

Or I have a page all ready for you to print with several tags that are different sizes on it.

I love teachers! Teaching is a tough job because it requires more than punching a time card (do people even do that anymore?). So when I have the chance to show my kid’s teachers how much I appreciate them, I’m all over it. From teacher appreciation to end of the year teacher gifts, these ideas are perfect.

Teacher Gifts:

I have put together 50 really fun teacher gift ideas for you, so there will be something here that your teacher is sure to love.

And because teachers generally receive lots of gifts throughout the year, it’s important to keep a few things in mind when it comes to giving the perfect teacher gifts.

First, make sure you know something about your teacher such as favorite color, treat, hobby, book…etc. When you know something about your teacher you can build a gift they will really love.

Second, keep in mind your teacher will get gifts from other students so you want to be unique. A teacher may love something, but they may not necessarily want 20 of that item.

Third, you don’t have to spend a lot of money to find a great gift. I have lots of ideas for you and most of them aren’t expensive. The idea is to let your teacher know how much they are appreciated. That being said I love gift cards because you can easily control how much you spend. I have gift card ideas below, but you can add gift cards to any of these gifts.

Let’s take a look at some fun teacher gift ideas.

Teacher Gift Ideas:

Fun Food Themed Gift Ideas:

All of these fun ideas have one thing in common…food! Teachers love to eat, right? So why not make a cute gift with their favorite treats? All of these ideas are super fun, and have printable tags available making your life a little simpler.

Keep in mind, you can always add a gift card with any of these ideas if you are looking to spend a little more money. Either way you go…these ideas are fantastic.

Now, as promised I have some fun gift card ideas for you. It’s probably no surprise, but teachers love gift cards. Giving gift cards lets your teacher get exactly when they want. And it’s even better if you know a couple of their favorite stores or places to eat.

Another great idea is to pool your money as a class and get one larger gift, or several different gift cards. This is usually the approach my classes have taken and my teachers love it.

People some times talk about tacos like they are as lovable as donuts, but I can’t quite understand the passion with tacos. Sure, they make a yummy dinner and I had some pretty good ones in Texas last year. Donuts though. There’s just something about donuts isn’t there? They taste amazing AND they’re so cute too. Who doesn’t want to eat donuts and who doesn’t want to look at donuts? I’m on board with the donut trend.

This donut themed thank you gift is the perfect idea for anyone who loves donuts (and who doesn’t?) and it’s easy to put together. You can either grab a box of donuts and add the cute tag or you can go all out and do a whole donut themed gift basket. Either way, I think this is fabulous! (You know what else you could do? Make a donut bouquet and add this tag. So many fun options!)

It was fun to look for cute donut things to put in this! Who do you know that would love this cute gift basket!?

Or here’s a peek at the box of donuts version:

Donut Themed Thank You Gift:

Obviously, if you want to just do the box of donuts, you just need the tag. But if you want to put together a gift basket, here are some fun things you could put in it. (some of these are affiliate links)

You can also head to the dollar store and find some cute things!

• Cute Donut Socks
• Donut Notebook
• Donut Stickers
• Donut T-shirt
• Donut Zipper Pouch
• Donut Phone Case

And of course, you’ve got to add some donuts or a donut gift card! What else would you add?

Then package it all up and add this tag!

Donut Thank You Gift Tag:

Here’s the tag for you to use! You can either save it to your computer and then size how you want and print, or we’ve got a PDF with several on it ready for you to use!

It makes such a cute gift!

Can you believe the school year is about to wrap up? It seems like every year goes faster and faster!

For the past 4-5 years I’ve been in charge of Teacher Appreciation Week at my kid’s  school and this year I’m not. I LOVE to spoil our teachers, though I won’t mind the break from adding another layer of busy at that already busy time of year.

But I can’t resist sharing a whole bunch of cute and simple teacher appreciation gifts with you today! Hopefully, you’ll find something here that you think your teachers will love!

Teacher Appreciation Gifts:

I have so many ideas to share with you because I seriously LOVE spoiling the teachers. They do so much for my kids and I just want to give them a big fat THANKS! These teacher gifts are so cute and that makes them as much fun to give as they are to receive!

And if you’re looking for more teacher appreciation week ideas, this post should help too! It’s got theme ideas, door decorating ideas and more to help make your teacher appreciation week amazing!

Now let’s spoil those teachers with some fun gifts!

Let’s just preface this teacher gifts list by saying, I LOVE to add a gift card to any of these ideas to make it something the teacher will really love and something a little bit personalized. The cutesy things you sometimes see on craft blogs like mugs and picture frames are very sweet but not super practical for the teacher. That’s why we love giving things that are a little more personalized to the teacher and adding a gift card with it. Who wouldn’t love that?

My school has a binder with the teacher’s info in it like favorite restaurants and places to shop, so I scour that for info, put together a fun and cute gift and then add a gift card! It’s easy and gift cards make great teacher appreciation gifts.

Now, here’s some fun gift ideas for teachers you can give this year!

Fun Teacher Gifts:

Most of these fun ideas have a free printable tag, making your life a little simpler.

I honestly have a one in a million teacher for my fifth-grade boy this year who goes above and beyond in every way. She shows up to basketball games and soccer games to cheer them on (and not even just one a season, but several). She had the whole class put on the play of Hamilton and even had our little “tough” boys singing and dancing of their own free will. I love her and the time and effort she puts into my kiddo and I know that this year when I thank her, I want her to really know just how much I appreciate her.

This cute “One in a Melon” gift says what I really feel. She’s amazing and I want her to know. If you’re looking for creative teacher gifts, this one is super fun and probably not something she’s seen before! Plus, I had a blast putting it together!

It was surprisingly easy and fun to shop for melon themed items! I didn’t realize there would be so many cute options!

I’d add a fun gift card to this gift basket to make it extra special. Maybe to a place with “melon” flavored drinks or something fun like that? Or just a gift card to her favorite place.

I love spoiling my teachers!! If you want to make this gift, here are a few details.

One in a Melon Teacher Gifts:

This is easy to put together and you can make it as big or as small as you’d like. Just have fun with it!

Here are some ideas of things to put in your melon themed gift basket:

• Scarf (we found ours at the Target Dollar Spot)
• Socks
• Face Mask
• Watermelon flavored lip balm
• Watermelon candy and gum
• Pink, red or green notebooks and pens
• Watermelon stickers

What else would you use? You can add anything! Just hit the store and see what you can find! And fill it up:

If any of you moms out there have boys who have gone through the Boy Scout program, you will be able to relate when I say it’s a daunting task. So, when a good friend came to my rescue and helped my son find a great Eagle project and helped us get it all organized, I knew we needed a fun way to say thank you. And not just any thank you would do…we needed a Big Texas Thank You Gift Idea!

Well, I found it! This fun gift idea is the perfect way to express gratitude and is such a simple gift idea!

Thank You Gift Idea:

Now this is the perfect tag to add to a Texas Roadhouse gift card, but it doesn’t need to be that exact gift card. The important part of gift giving is making sure the gift is personalized, so get what the recipient would love…this tag works with any of them.

All you need is the gift card, the tag (which I have made printable for you), and a cute ribbon. So simple, and such a thoughtful way to tell someone thank you.

I have the tag all ready for you to print.

Simply right click and save to your computer then open in a program like Pages or Word and size how you want, or here’s a page that has some on it ready to print:

Last year for my 40th birthday, my friend, (Hi Debbie!) gave me the CUTEST gift! She folded up dollar bills and colorful paper to look like flowers and butterflies and put together the cutest money bouquet filled with 40 $1 bills!

It was a perfect gift for a 40th birthday and I thought it would be a cute gift for other occasions too like graduation, a bridal shower or even Christmas!

This was actually way easier to make than it looks and it turned out so cute!

So today I’d love to show you how to make a money bouquet because these are such a fun gift idea!

How to Make a Money Tree:

The first thing to know is that while this is pretty easy to make, it will take a little time, so pull up a good show and start folding!

Here’s what you’ll need to get started.

Supplies Needed:

• Dollar bills (in any denomination and however many you want. Each flower uses 3 bills, each butterfly takes 2 and I did about 6 of each each for this bouquet.
• Scrapbook paper
• Skewer sticks
• Bucket or cute pot to put it in
• Dry floral foam to fit down into bucket
• Pipe cleaners or wire
• Tape or glue dots
• Something cute to go in the center. I found cute little flowers in the scrapbook section at the craft store.
• Crinkle paper to fill the bucket

How to Make a Money Bouquet:

Fold each of your flowers. Then, cut scrapbook paper to the size of a dollar bill and fold it in the same way you did with the dollar bills to make some scrapbook paper flowers as well.

Attach each one to a skewer stick with a pipe cleaner and add a little flower accent to the center.

If you’d like to add some butterflies, use this tutorial to fold them. I used pipe cleaners to add little antenna as well.

Here’s a close up of all of it:

You can also just cut some flat flowers out of paper if you want to add accents.

Once you’ve got it all ready, start sticking the flowers and butterflies down into the bucket with the dry floral foam in it.

Then add the little crinkle paper around the bottom (you can add some of this at the beginning and then fill the rest of the way at the end if you want).

So cute. So perfect. This is going to make the best gift ever!

Have FUN giving this money bouquet!
