End of the Year Teacher Gifts in a Cup

Summer is coming FAST!  I’m kind of excited about it actually.  We have a lot of fun things planned and *bonus* we get a break from having to get up and out the door early every morning.  What’s not to be excited about?

I’ve been on a roll this week – knocking things off the list, getting ahead of things when I get the chance.  Not only did I get the teacher’s End of the School Year gifts put together, but I even got them posted on the blog the other day!  As I was doing so, I occured to me that it wasn’t the first time I’d put together a gift like that for the teachers so I did a little back-tracking.  Yup.  This is my third year in a row using a similar idea for the teacher gifts – Summer Kit in a Cup.  When you find a good thing it’s ok to just keep doing it, right?  And there are oh-so-many ways to take a single idea and change it up.

This year’s Summer fun trinkets were contained in a double wall cup that I monogrammed.  Inside you can find sunscreen, Chapstick with SPF, lemonade mixes, and Italian Ice freezer pops.

Last year I used really cute daiquiri glasses, filled them with goodies (drink mixes, sunscreen, chocolates, and freezer pops), and topped them with adorable little paper umbrellas and paper straws.  (printable for the tags can be found here)

And the year before last looked like this:

Double wall cups with flip-top lids filled with (betcha can’t guess what!) sunscreen, Chapstick with SPF and some After-Sun lotion.  Tag printable were originally found here.

So I’m thinking next year I’m going to use some of those cute mason jar cups or maybe those cool glass milk jugs I saw at the craft store the other day…
