I came across these insulated drink tumblers at Walmart a few weeks ago.  I grabbed two, one for my daughter’s MDO teacher and one for our bus driver.  (We already gave my son’s 1st grade teacher her gift, you can see it here.)

I filled the cups with packets of instant Starbucks Iced coffee and packets of pink lemonade.  I found the flag printable here and just used Photoshop Elements to customize what the flag said.  So easy and the gifts came out really cute!  I wish I had bought a couple more of these tumblers.  I hope Walmart still has them the next time I am there so I can get a couple for myself.

Linking up here.

  4. These are super cute! I've been looking for something easy, but not too cheezy to give my little girl's teachers. Thanks for sharing this idea! …now I just need to find some tumblers 🙂

    Bed Bath and Beyond sell these cups as well if you have one nearby.

    How did you change the text in PS? I am trying a few tricks… but nothing is erasing the text.

      I used the color dropper to select the background color and then used a hard brush to paint over the original text. I erased a bit of the blue line too, but I redrew the line using the same method. Hope that helps.

    We found the tumblers at Ross. I purchased one for each of my daughter's teachers and put a Starbucks gift card inside along with a handwritten note from my daughter. They absolutely loved it!

  9. That's a great idea. I've noticed that most of my son's classmates don't do a end of the year gift, but we just had a teacher appreciation event where the kids took in a gift each day. This would be a great idea for that. (One of the gifts is supposed to be office supplies. This year I made up a cute basket of pens and markers, but I wanted something a bit more personal.) Saving this idea for next year.

  10. What a very thoughtful gift that a teacher would absolutely use almost daily! So sweet to remember the bus driver, a much deserved gift. Just visiting from the May Blog Hop and am now following you. I would also love to invite you to link this up to Freedom Fridays Blog Hop.

  11. I've been looking for these tumblers — who would've thought Walmart?!! 🙂 Thanks for reminding me to get a gift for our bus driver. He definitely deserves it!

    Great last minute idea…every teacher deserves a gift! Not to mention that bus driver, that must be a hard job!
