DIY Director/Teacher Thank You Gift Sets

 

Hello, happy Friday! Here is a thank you gift idea that is especially great for when you need to make several thank you gifts at once. I made these for my theater directors, choreographer, and stage manager, but they could work for other occasions such as bulk teacher appreciation gifts. This gift sets are very simple to put together. 

Here is what they included:

-Cups (mine were from Walmart)

-Thank You Cards (mine were from Dollar Tree)

-Dishcloths (I bought a set from Walmart)

-Tea/Drink Packets 

-Lip Balm (I bought mine in a set from Marshells)

-Donuts/Treats (again, mine were from Walmart)

-Sandwich Bags 

-Ribbon

-Containers/Baskets (Mine were from Dollar Tree)

Of course, these items could easily be replaced by alternative items based on what the recipient likes. 

I hope you find this helpful!

Easy, Cheap DIY Reeses Appreciation Gift

Here is a super easy tutorial for a fun, tasty, small appreciation gift. I was thrilled when I came up with "App-Reese-ate", and this gift is great for when you need to show your thankfulness at the last minute. 

To make it, you will need:

-A jar (or set of jars; I like to buy 12 for around $8 at Walmart)

-A bag of Reeses candies (I used the Christmas tree kind in December for $2-3 and added the pun "tree-mendous" on my labels/notes)

-Twine or ribbon

-Paper or something for the jar labels and a marker

I bought a large bag of Reeses and used them in a gift box, gift basket, filled around four jars, and still had extra! Just fill a jar with the candy, write a label that says you "App-Reese-ate" someone in your own words, and tie a ribbon or string around the jar. It's so simple and very inexpensive, especially to make in bulk. 

I hope this helps when you want to give a token of gratitude!
