Berry Sweet Summer Teacher Gift
Where my last minute Mommas at? Cause I totally got you covered this year for your end of school teacher thank you gift. {didn’t we JUST have teacher appreciation week BTW?} Not that they don’t deserve ALL the love. Teachers are angels sent straight from heaven! And it doesn’t get much easier than this Berry Sweet Summer Teacher Gift!
I’ve had this in mind all year when I came up with the idea on midnight before the last day of school LAST YEAR. So naturally I’ve been planning for it and am totally ready to share it with you….on midnight before the last day of school! You’d think I’d learn!! So if it’s already too late….Pin it for later and I’ll try to remind you a little earlier next year!

Which Party Mom are you?
I know we’ve got a few different styles of party Mommas around here and I’ve got a gift option for EACH of you!
1. “Easy Peasy” Teacher Gift
We’ve got the “Easy Peasy Mom” that won’t touch it if it takes more than scissors.
To you I offer these free printable labels that you can print, cut, and slap on the side of a container of berries. DONE. And it’s still pretty dang cute.
2. “I Could Do That” Teacher Gift
The “I could do that” Mom who makes awesome stuff when she can find the time. But where-oh-where is it hiding?
For you Momma, I empathize, I’m right here with you. Do you ever see something cute and think “I could make that,” but then buy it anyways because you know you never will? I always dream big only to scale waaay back when reality hits. I CAN do amazing, but it doesn’t happen very often.
For you, if you’ve got a little time to shop you can put together a darling little basket that will make your child proud. Line a berry basket with tissue paper and fill it up with a strawberry drink or snacks. I added strawberry coasters and sparkling strawberry drink in a sweet strawberry can cozie. Tie on a strawberry straw and top it off with a darling tag. {I happen to know where you can score a super cute one} You’re welcome.
3. “I’m so Martha” Teacher Gift
And you “I’m so Martha Moms” that go all out for every occasion while somehow also looking flawless. {We all secretly hate you! Just kidding, we’d probably be fast friends but I’m usually a HOT mess around here and jealous of those that aren’t!}
For you, there are so many options. I chose to fill a basket with an assortment of strawberry things. Fill a berry basket {or two} with strawberries, I then added berry fruit snacks {sub nutrigrain bars, fruit leather, etc}, strawberry mints, the aforementioned coasters, and sparkling strawberry water in a strawberry can cozie. But use your well tuned imagination to come up with way more awesome stuff. I had thoughts of a cute strawberry mini banner made on my Cricut to string across the top of the basket. I’m not going to have time for that, but Martha, I bet you’d find it. Tie on a tag and guarantee your child’s ranking as favorite student ever! This route is a good one if you need your teacher to forget any previous school year mishaps.

Say Thank You on the Last Day of School
This is what you get when you ask your daughter to think of something funny so you have a chance to catch a real smile. Turns out this is much more her style!
I can’t believe second grade is over and done today!! We were blessed with a great teacher in a fabulous school. She’s grown so much this year. If she keeps it up she’ll be as tall as {and a little bit smarter than} her Momma, by the end of next year!
