So- it was 9:30 the night before my son's last day of preschool and it hit me... I don't have teacher gifts!! I had planned for weeks what I was going to do but always put it off because... well... because that is what I do: leave everything to the last minute! Good thing Walgreens is right down the street and open until 10PM!
I picked up these cute water bottles and used my Silhouette to cut out the teachers names with outdoor vinyl (I get my vinyl HERE - super cheap!) That is what I love about my Silhouette the most... making personalized gifts at the very last minute! Now, I try to keep a stash of vinyl around just for projects like this. People love to get personalized gifts!
I cut out Thank You tags with my silhouette too. In the morning had my son draw a picture of each of his teachers on the back. I was in bed by 11 with a cute teacher gift all ready! Phew- good thing I work good under pressure! : )

Great last minute idea! I'm collecting Teacher Gift ideas and would love for you to add yours at http://craftymomsshare.blogspot.com/2012/05/teacher-gifts-last-day-of-school.html. Thank you!
Great save girl. Thank God for late night stores huh? Uh I have a bad habit of waiting til last minute also. Why do we do that to ourselves? Those water bottles are really nice, I have a couple myself. Did you buy yourself one while you were there? Don't feel bad, you're just human.
