Teachers work hard teaching our kids 9 months out of the year. It’s always nice to give them a token of appreciation during the holiday season. Here are some frugal DIY teacher gifts:
EOS Lip Balm Card for Teachers: This is a cute and more updated version of giving and “apple for the teacher.”
Crayon Candy Dishes: These are bright and colorful and would look great on any teacher’s desk.
Mason Jar of Highlighters: this is a simple, frugal, and most likely appreciated gift ideas for teachers.
DIY Painted Initial Mug: This is a fun idea! All it takes is a Dollar store mug, a large letter sticker, and some multi-colored sharpies.
DIY Pencil Vase: This can be done entirely with Dollar Store items and would help brighten up the classroom.
DIY Apple Candy Jars: Kids would have so much fun painting this apple jar for their teachers.
DIY Decorative Clorox Wipes Containers: Every year the teachers in the school where my children attend consistently ask for Clorox or Lysol wipes. This is an easy way to make them just a little cuter and brighter.
Light Bulb Candy Treat: I have seen these light bulbs for around a $1 at the craft store. Find them with the rest of plastic and glass party favor containers. *photo source unknown.
Strawberry Shortcake Mason Jar: I love mason jar treats! This is an easy and cute way to give a homemade dessert.
