Gifts for teachers

Hello!

I hope all is well with everyone.  It's the end of yet another

school year.  I just can't believe how fast time goes by.

Every year I make orange bags for the teachers.  They are just so

much fun to put together.  I made two of them this year.

"Orange you glad it's summer?"

I picked up an orange gift bag.  Then added a towel,  drinking cup,  soda, 

nail polish, gum, gold fish and an orange sewing kit.  I then made them a set 

of note cards and placed them inside a small fry box.

The fry box is a die from Stampin Up.

 Here is the free file I found for the tag on Pinterest.  I upload it, printed and

cut it out by hand.

I also found something else on Pinterst.  Can you tell I just love Pinterest!

I found the mitt and spatula at the dollar store and then I bought

the cookie dough at the supermarket.  Wrapped a ribbon around the

tag, and there you go.  A great gift for your teacher.

And here is the free download I found and printed.

 

I hope you find these ideas fun to give your favorite teachers,

or anyone else in your life.

Have a wonder day

Sock Cupcake

Hello again.  Are you looking for a fun and cool gift.

 Here are a couple of Sock Cupcakes I made for my

grand daughters teachers for Valentine's Day.

 I cut a strip of pattern paper about 2 inches high.  

I then grabbed a pair of Valentine sock and rolled it up.  

Then I took the pattern paper and wrapped it around the roll up 

sock to make it look like a cupcake.   I then tied a ribbon

 and topped it with a heart as a final touch.  I was able to find the 

sentiment on Pinterest and just downloaded it and copied it.

I love the final results and the teachers loved them.

 I made the next two you see below for my grand daughters.

For them I used stocking instead.  They love fun stockings and

lucky me I was able to find some fun ones on Amazon.  I

also got them some M&M's with their picture of them.

I hope you get to try these as well.  It's something fun and cute

that anyone would love.  And best part is you can make them

any time of the year.  Maybe even a birthday.

Thanks for coming by.

Have a wonderful day.

Orange you glad…

Hello everyone,

This past June when the school year ended I gave the

teachers orange bags.  Eveything inside the bag was orange.

I added a tag that said "Orange you glad it's summer?"

The teachers loved it.  These teachers worked during the summer 

as well half a day, but they still love it.

This is the 2nd year I've done this and it's been a hit both time.

I hope you try it out.  Between the sentiment and the contents, I promise 

you that it will be fun to give as well as receive.
Here is my You Tube video if you would like to see it closer.

Take care everyone.

hugs,

Yvette

Orange you glad summer is here!

Hello my crafty friends.

Yes, summer is finally here.  This was one long winter we had.  

Now it's warm and I am happy.  Kids are even happier 

to be done with another school year.  Yay!

Today I wanted to share with you what I made for the teacher last

day of school.  I found this great idea on Pinterest.  Don't you love

Pinterest?  I do.  LOL  I have two grand daughters and between the

two of them there were 5 teachers.  

I picked up 5 white gift bags at Party City and spray them down with

 Lindys spray.  I used  "Magical Mai Tai" and "Tears on My Pillow Tangerine."

I then gather a few things with orange color.  Like a beach towel,

an orange pouch, orange soda, orange gum, orange candy wrap and 

even suntan lotion in an orange tube. 

Here is my YT video if you're interested in the details.

And that was their gift.  "Orange you glad summer is here."

I hope you are all happy as well and I wish you all a

great summer.
