It’s back to school time.
I don’t know how it crept up but it’s almost here. Like everyone else your wallet is probably getting a little thin as you double check that you have everything on the list. At the bottom of the list there’s just one thing left that’s not crossed off, Back to School Teacher Gifts. You circle it, and draw a question mark. Are there any unique and affordable gifts out there besides the very cliché apple? {I’m here to tell you yes!}
Alyssa and I put our heads together to brainstorm so you don’t have to and came up with 2 awesome back to school teacher gifts for under $10. If you follow us on Instagram then you may have seen the sneak peak and have a guess! They are practical (which teachers love) but still fun. Stand out from the crowd with these teacher gifts, Sharpie style!
Teachers are gonna love all the bright and happy colors for all those A+s they’ll be handing out.
We picked up a pack of Sharpies at Staples for under $6. And if you’re looking for a deal, starting August 10th all Sharpie Fine and Ultra Fine markers and highlighters will be on sale at Staples {while supplies last}. WOO HOO!
We bought an extra pack for us, let the kiddos draw and doodle all over a few sheets of paper and then made this awesome pinwheel!
