Teacher Gift Idea with Post Its and Printable Tag

Simple Gift Idea for Teachers for Back to School

Recently as you know I’ve been featuring ideas using colorful permanent markers, thanks to our friends at Infinity Markers, no this isn’t a sponsored post I just have been really inspired.  

I guess if you leave a new box of markers in my house apparently I can get a little creative!  

This project we created for my daughter’s First Day of School gift to her teacher but it would work anytime as a special little “I think you’re special gift.”

Post It Notes Teacher Gift Idea for Teacher Appreciation Gift

Supplies Needed

  • Permanent Markers
  • Colorful Post It Notes
  • Ribbon

Directions

Using the Permanent Markers write your desired message on the ribbon lightly, if you press too hard it will bleed.  Then tie the decorated ribbon onto the post it notes.  

You can attach a cute note too.

Our note says…

Take NOTE…

2nd Grade will be bright and colorful

with you as my teacher.

That’s it!  Trust me any teacher would love post it notes and a Permanent Marker!

If you’re giving this during Teacher Appreciation week you can edit the little note to say

Take NOTE…

2nd grade was bright and colorful with you as my teacher!
