You can find them on Etsy here She has tons of cute invitations, birth announcements, etc and the quality of her work looks to be amazing. I need to thank Life with Lulu for bringing this spot to my attention!
Not to be outdone by this vendor, I also chose something from Life with Lulu's Etsy store. Madigan has a class pet at school. It is a sea turtle stuffed animal named Sally. Heather has a beautiful seersucker belt with a turtle buckle that I thought would be just perfect!
Any ideas for the Bus Driver????

How about a gift card to Panera Bread or some other eatery?
one of my favorite easy teacher gifts is to wrap a bottle of sunscreen in a beach towel (monogrammed if possible), with a subsciption to a magazine. I usually give Real Simple. I then tie it with some grosgrain ribbon...very simple. I even stock up on those beach towels when they go on clearance. Target had some for $5 in Feb.
Great gifts! I'm fresh out of bus driver gift ideas, but in answer to your query in your comment on Figs about storing basil: It never lasts that long in my house that storing it for more than a day or so is an issue. To store for that amount of time, I cut the bottom of the stems and place the bunch in a glass of water on my counter--just like fresh flowers. I know you can do the same thing and place a plastic bag over the top and put it in the fridge. It's important to keep the leaves dry--else they'll turn black. But it seems to me putting it in the fridge dulls the taste some, so if I can't use it right away, I usually make it into pesto and freeze that by drizzling a thin layer of olive oil on top inside a plastic container. The olive oil seals it and help keep it green, as does adding a little fresh lemon juice to the pesto.
You've kicked off a huge pesto craving in me! I love it and could eat it for breakfast, but we're still waiting for seasonal basil here. Good luck and enjoy yours!!
I just ordered the last set of teacher note cards. Just what I was looking for!!!
I LOVE the sunscreen, towel, magazine subscription idea! I'm SO using it next year. And hopefully, I'll be savvy and stock up on the summer sales! Ha, no I won't. I'll be scrambling at the last minute--same as this year. ;-)
Thanks for sharing the great ideas!!
