Pencils, M&M's, and a Candy Bar

A few ideas for Teacher Appreciation Week.
1.  Wrapped Pencils
Take a few pencils and colored string. I macrame-d friendship bracelet string around each pencil and wrapped them in raffia to complete the look.

2.  Wrapped Hershey Bar
Using a simple glue stick, I covered the candy bar with decorative paper.  Then I printed out a new label on to loose-leaf paper and wrapped the bar.  Super Simple.

3.  M&M's in a Mason Jar
I filled a mason jar with M&M's and attached this cute poem.

Need a gift for Teacher Appreciation Week?  

How wonderful is this?  I have a parent in my classroom that makes these.  I had this one made for my daughter's teacher.  It's a paint can that I will fill with little teacher goodies.
