Teacher Appreciation Gifts : Classy Dollar Bin Teacher Appreciation Gift

Teacher Appreciation Week is May 6th through May 10th and I wanted to give my children's teachers a bit of something to let them know we appreciate all their hard work. We do homeschool, but my children attend a consortium one day a week and have wonderful teachers who work so very hard. My son has six teachers and my daughter has five teachers, so it is a bit expensive for me to purchase gift cards for 11 teachers.

I thought I would create a little something for Spring to bring a smile across a busy face. My original idea was to purchase a pot and plant some herbs as I have done previously, but I really didn't have time to 'plant' 11 pots with herbs. I simply went to a home improvement store and looked at herbs and seeds and purchased packets of beets, kale and radishes for $1 each.

I then searched in the dollar bins at a local superstore and couldn't believe my luck. Sitting in the bins were garden gloves and gardening tools, as well as these adorable red watering cans. I was also able to pick up a roll of bakers twine.

I searched for an appropriate tag and couldn't find one that would fit my new theme. I downloaded one that was somewhat similiar and simply edited it to my likely and the gifts were complete. The children had fun placing the watering can together.

So easy!

So adorable!

So economical!

So appreciated!
