Spring is among us! Although here in the PNW you might think it's still winter with our 32 degree weather this week. After being down in Mexico [Puerto Vallarta] last week for Spring Break, it's been quite the contrast to the 85 degrees and sunshine we were soaking up.
Returning from Spring Break always marks the countdown! AKA the end-of-the-year at school. I can't believe it's already time to start counting down!
I've been working on updating an end-of-the-year teacher gift that I originally created for a teacher friend that was retiring. Back in 2012! Here's the original post if you want to check it out:
Here's what the OLD 'Summer Essentials' tag and gift looked like:
I needed to bring it 'up to date' with a digital version to say the least, but I'm excited with how the NEW one turned out!
I created two versions of the tag to better meet everyones' needs. The first 'Summer Essential' tag works perfectly for a teacher, volunteer, student-teacher, or even that favorite colleague! The second version is specific for that retired teacher!
What better way to say THANK YOU and send them off to summer vacation than some fun relaxing treats! Plus it all looks pretty cute when it's tied together or put into a fun beach tote or bag!
Here's items I put together as an example:
I bought the items from Dollar Tree, Target, and a local grocery store. Super quick to put together too! See here:

Of course it's not summer vacation yet, I know I still have 10 weeks of teaching before the break, but it's never too soon to plan those thank you gifts!
Hang in there teacher friends, there's light at the end of the tunnel. We'll get through this school year and onto a MUCH NEEDED summer vacation. In the meantime, just keep swimming! You got this!
Find your balance,
Shelby
