teacher gifts: ombre zip pouches

For Teacher Appreciation Day, our preschool parents decided it would be fun to pool our money and send the teachers for a well-deserved spa treatment, so I offered to make zip pouches to use as the gift card holders. 

I whipped up these little ombre zip pouches using Anna's lil' cutie pouch tutorial and one of Target's fun ombre tablecloths. While at target, I also picked up some leather boot laces for the zipper pulls.

I love giving handmade gifts, but I also know how much teachers love to get gift cards, and these pouches offer the perfect combination the two! They came together in no time at all, and I still have a ton of fabric left over that would make really cute matching tote bags! ... Mother's Day gifts?! Maybe!

 

Thank you to all of the wonderful teachers out there - we appreciate everything you do for our kiddos!

teacher gifts: we appreciate ewe

The teachers a my boys' preschool are just the best.  And to let them know just how much we appreciate them, I thought we would give them something handmade.  So, bread bags & bread it is!
With a name like Little Lambs Preschool, it's hard not to have fun with it! So, thank ewe to all the teachers a Little Lambs Preschool - we appreciate all ewe do!
My alarm is set for a quarter til' bight-n-early so I can get all the baking done before school - wish me luck! I have all the bags and tags ready to be assembled and the dough in the fridge.
What teacher gifts are you giving this year? (I need some good ideas because I don't think I can get away with bread again for end of the year gifts!)
