Teacher Tote #3

This teacher box is for my older sons male teacher.  He had only one so the ladies were easy to do totes for.  I made his to be a simply fancy favor box and turned it into a "Teachers Survival Kit".  Its filled with red pens/sticky note pad, and the items on the list.

Band Aid:  for when things get a little rough
Crayon: to color every day bright and cheery
Marbles:  to replace those you might lose from time to time
Mounds Cnady Bar: for the mounds of knowledge you share
Paper Clip: for when you need help holding things together
Rubber Band: to remind you to be flexible
Starburst Candy: to give you a burst of energy
Shiny Penny: to remind you that each will shine in his or her own special way
Eraser: to remind you that everyone makes mistakes
Animal Cookies: for when your class seems like a zoo
Toothpick:  to help "pick" out the good qualities in others

Teacher Tote #2

Here is another tote for my older sons Language Arts Teacher.  I made one of Becky Roberts cute little pocketbooks.  Head on over to her blog to get the instructions to make these are others, http://www.inkingidaho-tutorials.blogspot.com/

I filled this tote with the same items.

Teacher Tote #1

I have been working on teacher gifts for "Meet the Teacher Day".  Each year, I make a little something special and fill it with teacher items.  This tote, I made two of, one for each of my sons main teacher.  I filled them with red ink pens, decorated sticky note pad, mints and 4 3x3" thank you note cards and envelopes.  I have the pattern for the tote.  Email me directly if you would like to have it.  It is super easy to make.
