Figure A Figure B Figure C Figure D Figure E Figure F Figure G Wrap the contents in three separate boxes, from biggest to smallest in yellow paper. Tie them together with yellow ribbon and top with red roses to create a beautiful tiered "wedding cake" (figure A) . Create a movie night in a basket. Place microwave popcorn, popcorn boxes, theater-style candy, videos or DVDs and a six-pack of soda in a large basket (figure B) . Add some curly ribbon with popcorn hot glued on to finish it off. Fill a jar with chocolate striped cookies (figure C) and marshmallows. Top with extendable skewers and a bow and you will have all the makings for s'mores. A baby shower gift, such as a cute baby outfit, can be put on a small teddy bear and finished off with a bow (figure D) . Wrap a bridal shower gift in towels and finish off with some pins. The towels are then part of the gift. Use contrasting towels, one for the wrapping and one for the bow. Make a bow out of another towel threaded through a measuring cup set ring and attach with chip clips (figure E) . A beautiful box doesn't need to be wrapped. Just top with a bow and fill the box with cards (figure F) . Take two tall kitchen bags, cut off the ends and tie with decorative hair clips (figure G) . This is great for when you are out of wrapping paper.

Craft Library: Gifts for Teachers FREE recipes , desserts , crafts & health ideas Crafts & Hobbies & Special Kitchen Values PinkSunrise.com | Families-First.com | Homeschool Zone | Event-of-the-Week | Bookstore | Search An Apple for the Teacher Special Gifts Ideas for that Special Educator Join our support group Cheerful Cookie Box Kathy Ross, the popular craft book author, has written a new book craft book called Crafts for Christian Values . Kathy's latest book is filled with wonderful crafts and ideas to help children learn about Christian values and what they mean. This easy-to-do craft lets you take disposable plastic containers, photos, drawings, and old greeting cards to make a wonderful keepsake . It's so easy that even the little ones can do it too. Sit-A-Pon a gift for the gardening teacher The Sit-A-Pon is created by using very simple household materials; old plastic tablecloth, magazines, and yarn. I first made a Sit-A-Pon when I was a Girl Scout. I still remember that pink and white soft square that protected my knees while gardening as a small girl. The Sit-A-Pon can be personalized just for your mom. You can use water proof magic markers to write her name and her favorite colored yarn to sew the edging. My Special Cloth Book Put some special memories in a book you can give. This craft is brought to us by Roberta Ross-Fisher and she says, "All children enjoy having ownership in their work, and they especially like to complete projects which focus on themselves. Bookmaking can be a fun and easy way to help children at various ages and ability levels to communicate through writing." Cardboard Earrings The kids will enjoy making these earrings for themselves or as gifts . Be creative with the designs and you'll be sure to have a true piece artwork! Experiment with different designs. You can make the earrings as simple or as outrageous as you like. Birds, animals, flowers, shapes- it's up to you! They make great gifts for moms , teachers or a great addition to your Halloween outfit. Dessert-of-the-Week Toffee Bars This week's Dessert of the Week features the sinfully delicious Toffee Bars. This candy is fun for a special treat or dressed up in a candy tin as a great gift. These bars are simple to make and the kids can help make them too! Lollipop Plants Grow a lollipop plant ! Whether you are a teacher , mom , or kid who loves crafts, this is the perfect for you. It's very simple and you don't even need dirt. This is great as both a festive decoration and treat holder . You can use any kind of lollipops- Blow Pops, Tootsie Roll Pops or the traditional non filled pops. Comments & Ideas Teacher Gift Basket From: Linda For teacher appreciation week we gave the teachers gifts with these sayings attached. A mint + Thanks for the Commitment Pens + Teachers do the "Write" thing a rubberband ball + Teachers are Flexible a bag of cookies + Teachers Make Smart Cookies.
