Aside from buying for family and friends at Christmas, I always try to give my fellow English teachers a little something special (all thirteen of them!). Usually it's a homemade treat...or if I'm really on a time crunch, it's candy and a card. This year, though, I decided to put my obsession with Pinterest to use and create a great teacher gift idea.

After finding some adorable cards at Hallmark, which came in these cute red envelopes with snowflakes, I bought a few boxes of movie butter popcorn (the best) to attach to the cards. Next, I used my handy dandy large circle punch, which I purchased from Michael's two years ago to create tags for my niece's birthday party favors and (to be honest) I haven't touched it since. I jotted a little note on each tag, finished with a little ribbon and TADA! A cute gift that everyone can enjoy.

But there's one more group I always put together a special gift for - my yearbook students. They work hard to meet those deadlines and deserve a little "thank you." I purchased yearbook t-shirts from our yearbook company, wrapped them up with boxed candy, and included a colored pen (because they do a ton of writing for me!).
