Today I'm just going to show you what I ended up making for the teachers. I didn't go with the purse from the other day. I decided to use my NEW CRICUT and make some boxes, load them up with candy and be good to go. Yep, I got a Cricut and I love it! I also got the Sure Cuts A Lot program and that makes the Cricut that much better! I've really enjoyed making these!
So...top and bottom photos are obviously for Kyler's two teachers. I bought a big bag a Ghiradelli chocolate, caramel squares and loaded the boxes up with those and put in a coffee card for them as well.

Below, is a little box that I made for Jon to give to his math teacher. Jon has had the same math teacher I think for three of his four high school years. Mr. Johnson is one of the best math teachers and we are so thankful that both Scott and Jon had him. He is retiring this year though so no luck for Kyler. We'll work on getting Kyler in with Mrs. Faye though. The idea for the numbers and such on the box was totally Jon's. This is a little smaller box and holds about 6 pieces of Ghirardelli candy, no gift card though as this teacher doesn't care for coffee.
So, that is it for today. Tomorrow you'll want to stop back by as I'll have blog candy up for you all to sign up for. Don't expect me back here too much over the next week or so as with everything going on I'm not sure how much time I'll have.Have a wonderful week!!

Great ideas! Very nice gifts!
Adorable! Great ideas for a teacher. Congrats on taking the plunge into Cricut. I'm not sure I'll do that since it's so expensive. But I bet it makes things much easier and there are tons of things out there to use with it. Congrats to the graduate too. I'll keep your grandfather in my prayers.

Sorry to hear about your grandpa. Prayers and hugs to him and your family.
