End of the Year gifts

End. of. the .year....only 18 days away!  As a teacher we're flooded with mixed emotions during this time.  Excited for the near and dear days of summer and for me anyways, dreading the thought of packing up the room and saying goodbye to the kiddos.

Of course Pinterest is overwhelmed with gift ideas...so I chose one that was simple, cute, and meaningful for my kids.  Something they could keep to remember their time as a 3rd grader, in room 121.  Aww.  Here's the quick process of how they were made.

Inspiration from Pinterest:

From the blog, 'Dandee, A Happily Crafted Life' who created these as her daughters valentines for her classmates.  I used the same idea and created a new tag.  If you go to this blog she has the template available to download, super easy!!



My version:
Started by creating a new tag that reads: 
"Our class would knot have been the same without you!"
Cut them out with a punch:



Then cut out a colored sheet using the scalloped edge punch:



After gluing on each tag I punched holes on each side:





After I slid the bracelet through I used a small piece of tape to help hold them on:



After that I simply signed my name!  All that's left is to sign each kiddos name.  Super simple! 





Can't wait to pass them out!  18 days!!
