Teachers have to be organized.  What better way to help them stay organized than to make a DIY magnetic, dry erase calendar like this one from Infarrantly Creative.

Monogram Personalized Glass Jar

Any gift that is monogrammed and personalized will surely be a favorite.  Pick up some glass jars and add some custom vinyl like these jars I found at My Mix of Six.

Colored Pencil Picture Frame Makeover

I love this darling, colorful picture frame from Oopsie Daisy.  Add an inspirational quote (or your teacher’s favorite quote) and you have a creative and meaningful gift.

Make a necklace or key chain using chalkboard paint.  This necklace from Bride Blu is an easy gift idea for thanking your child’s teacher.

The packaging for this teacher gift from Eighteen 25 is super cute.  You could add fortune cookies or their favorite treat.

There are so many clever and creative gift ideas you can make for teacher appreciation gifts.  These ideas would be relatively easy to create.

What is your favorite way to remember teacher’s and let them know how much they are appreciated?  I think even more important than a cute gift, the most memorable and meaningful thing you can do for a teacher is write a handwritten note expressing your gratitude and letting them know how much they are loved.
