3 Printable Teacher Gift Ideas:
Idea #1: Personalized Teacher Note Cards
Let’s face it. Kids are crazy. And teachers often have to tell you about it. Gift your teachers a pack of their very own personalized teacher note cards and you can be sure those notes sent home are the cutest of the bunch! Customize with the teacher’s name, school, or even email address or phone number (if they are comfortable giving it out!) and slip them in a cute treat bag or envelope for the most personalized teacher gift around!
What You Need: Â Avery White Matte Postcards (#8387) Â + Â Notecard Avery Design File (download here) Â + Cute Treat Bag or Envelope with Custom Sticker Label

Idea #2: Printable Teacher Gift Card Holders
Instead of gifting generic body soaps or apple-themed home decor this year, give your teachers something they really want: money! It’s no secret that teachers have some of the most under-paid jobs, so give them the gift of pampering with a gift card for local restaurants, coffee, or Target. These printable gift card holders can be personalized with the dollar amount and have lots of space inside to write a personal note!

The best part of all of these ideas if that you can keep ready-to-print labels and notecards on hand, so you can whip up personalized teacher gifts without even leaving the house!
Idea #3: Customizable Sticker Labels
You know the saying, “Slap a sticker onto anything and it’s instantly cute”? So maybe I made that quote up, but it’s true! If there’s anything to keep on hand for last-minute gifts, it’s sticker labels. You can customize them for any occassion and whether you use these designs or not, you can be sure to find designs on Avery Design & Print Online that fit your theme. These confetti printable sticker labels come in 3 colors (red, white, and green) and can be personalized with your teacher’s name, a message of gratitude, or even your family’s name. Stick them on treat bags and boxes or use them as seals to envelopes!
