Today I am featuring gift guides for two sets of people who are near and dear to many families…our teachers and our parents!
What would we do without our kids’ teachers? I think that many of us got a taste of the work that they do while our kids were learning from home…and were reminded just how difficult their jobs are! Their patience has been tested so often over the past couple of years, and they are still doing what they do best – showing up with a smile and love for our kids every day. Let’s show them our appreciation during the holidays!
This Yeti mug and water bottle are perfect for the classroom – their drinks will stay cold or hot no matter how long they go untouched. Pair it with a bag of their favorite coffee!
I love this marble and wood cheese board and have given it as a gift several times. Tie a ribbon around it and attach a card or gift card!
The scent of this Voluspa White Cypress candle is so luxurious and perfect for a relaxing evening after the craziness of the school day.
This Scout tote bag has all of the room a teacher could want for books, files, and papers – and the cheerful striped pattern just makes me smile!
I really love all of the inspiring quotes featured on this 2022 Rifle Paper Co. wall calendar. After each month is over, she can save the pages and frame them around her classroom!
These braided orchid baskets look pretty in the classroom or at home.
This is a cute idea for an English teacher, librarian, or one who just loves to read. This little makeup or change pouch for their purse has many designs to choose from – including the library card shown, and many famous book cover designs. Slip a gift card or a sweet note from your child inside!
Speaking of which…Gift cards are always welcome and will be well used for the holidays! Be sure to include a handwritten note expressing your and your child’s thanks for a great school year.

Another category that I am often asked about is parents and in-laws. Many of you have expressed that it is hard to buy for parents; they have everything they want and need! This may be true, but there are plenty of gift ideas out there! Here are a few of my selections.
This Barefoot Dreams travel wrap is perfect to have on hand for chilly air or car travel. A great gift since we are all traveling again!

These marinade trays for the grill are a useful gift for the grillmaster or home cook.

Once you use the Tile Mate key finder once, you’ll wonder how you lived without it! So easy to use – and never lose your keys again!
