Whatever Wednesday: Teacher’s Gift

May 19, 2010 by Kaysi 20 Comments

With the school year ending soon, I decided to make my son’s teacher a little gift. It was very simple to make and hopefully she likes it!

It’s a little picture holder for her desk.

Since it will be on her desk, I did the back too

Another gift that I thought would be cute for a teacher, is turning a binder clip into a picture holder.

These are some that I did around Christmas time.
In a completely unrelated topic, look at what I got in the mail yesterday. I’m super excited about it!!

My boys were just as excited as I was!! They wanted to do some crafts right away!
I’m linking this post to these parties

    Fabulous gift ideas. Do you drill holes and bend your own wire for the wooden picture holder?
    Love the binder clip idea. Adorable!
    I'm so jealous of you're Cricut!
