The best end of the year teacher gift idea! :)

end of the year teacher gift, teacher gift idea, principal gift ideas, wooden teacher gift, plant teacher gift, oh yay studio, planter stick oh yay studio

I always try and give gifts that are usable or edible or something that is *SO* personal that the receiver loves it! 🙂 And that is where this idea came from…a cute, end of the year, thank you themed, “WE LOVE YOU” planter stick for your end of the year teacher gift. I mean, who doesn’t love getting a bunch of flowers OR a cute, little succulent plant, amiright?! 🙂 ESPECIALLY for teachers that can get inundated with apple decor or cliche teacher gifts (just ask my Mother-in-law who was a teacher for 20 years)! 🙂

So, here ya have it….the *BEST* end of the teacher gift (according to the Steffen household)! 🙂 GRAB YOURS HERE! We bought a few succulent plants from Home Depot for $3.99 and paired them with these planter sticks for our end of the year gift for Zeke’s teacher, aids and principal!

Cute, simple, thoughtful and not overly expensive for an expressive way to say THANK YOU for your fave teachers! Grab yours for your fave teacher HERE!
HAPPPPPPPPPY almost-summer everyone!

  • I’m seeing some new faces around here lately (welcome) and some loyal friends, too (weeeeeeeee). For any of you who’d like to know me better, here goes my *All About Me—Christmas Edition*: ⁣ Christmas is easily my most favorite @hallmarkchannel watching season (the storyline, the cheese, the joy, duh), one time in college my roomie and I decided to sing our answering machine greeting with our best impersonation of Mariah Carey’s “All I want for Christmas is You” (and it was *VERY* much on pitch I might add. Can you imagine the amazing messages we got? #epic) ANNNNDD every year I make my Mom’s famous nutmeg log cookies with nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, and a few shots of real rum for “flavoring” (yummmmmmmm…)!⁣ .⁣ And there you have it! Also, who has an amazing gingerbread cookie recipe that they can share? I am on a hunt for the most soft, chewy, delish recipe!⁣ .⁣ ALSOOOOO if you are local to the Twin Cities area, come to the @holidazzlempls tonight, I will be in the makers pop-up tent from 5-10pm!⁣ ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #abeautifulmess #maker #fridayintroductions #friyay #weekendvibes #makersgonnamake #weekendfun #craftsposure #christmas #makersmovement #shoplocal #wcco #christmasfun #holidazzle #creativelifehappylife
  • I’m burrowing out from underneath the umpteenth wooden Christmas tree set that I’ve painted! Yesterday I wrote an email about how selling my art is *SO* vulnerable….like putting my ideas and creations and thoughts out to the world for people to buy (or not) is like putting my soul out there! :) Can I get an amen from my fellow makers?! . But I also wrote about how stinking rewarding the whole process is; how amazing it is when someone purchases something because I can imagine the joy of someone else unwrapping it on Christmas morning or the fun around the work Christmas party as gifts get exchanged or alllll the comments about the colorful earrings that people will wear to their holiday parties. Like *SO* wildly exciting and fun! . I’ve also managed to get gold splatter paint on almost the every surface of my studio and kitchen table…..sooooo. It’s a win win in the #homemadechristmas department around here, wouldntchasay?? . . . #abeautifulmess #makersgonnamake #makers #makingit # #maker #makersmovement #handmadeisbetter #handsandhustle #crafting #abmlifeiscolorful #decorate #creativelifehappylife #artsandcrafts #shophandmade
  • I want to make these in every color and size and hang them from ALLLLL the tree branches, hooks, corner, mantles, and doors in our house. Because DUH! Aren’t they just the happiest, whimsical little Christmas bulbs you ever did see?? :) ⁣ .⁣ Snag the whole tutorial and pattern #ontheblog and promise me that you will make a set or 12 for your own house! K. K?!?!?! :) ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #blogpost #imadethis #maker #makersofinstagram #makersgonnamake #sewingpattern #christmasdecor #makersmovement #makingit #christmas #sewing #making #craftsposure #creativelifehappylife #abeautifulmess #amblifeiscolorful
  • It’s done! It’s DONE! IT’S DONEEEEEE! :) ⁣ This vintage inspired, beautifully sequined advent calendar is finitttttto (just in time for December 1st rolling out this week!) And, of course, in the spirit of toddler-hood, she *hadddddd* to take out every ornament and try them out on the tree and talk about each little bead and sparkle and I am not even once ounce mad at her adoration! Someday, we will make these kinds of things together, little girl!⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #maker #makersmovement #makersgonnamake #imadethis #makingit #christmas #handmadechristmas #purlsoho #purlsohobusyhands #Crafter #crafting #makingthings #making #diy #imake #creality #crafty
  • There are some once-in-a-lifetime views that continue to bring me joy! And every year when we get our Christmas tree it creates the various scenes of similar vignettes that bring me almost to tears (ok, so maybe they aren’t once in a lifetime, but every year is just a touch different…you get my point)! :) It’s the tradition, the memories, the joy, the season, the people…ALLLLL the things. It’s *hands down* my favorite day of every calendar year. . My hope, is that on Christmas tree day, we can create as a family, a tradition that my kids will be excited about and proud of. A tradition that brings our family closer and helps us laugh together. Something they can look back on that brought them joy; and maybe something they can continue when I am old and grey and knitting my hours away watching the @hallmarkchannel. And every year we document it on film. Catch the full video in #IGTV (click on my profile and see the latest video in the IGTV section)! :) OH man, I hope it inspires you and makes you smile to this already joyous season! . . . #christmas #christmastreeday #christmastime #family #mompreneur #makingmemories #joy #hustleforjoy #goaldigger #girlwashyourface #rachehollis #findjoy #maketodaycount #madeformore
  • This is true ☝🏻☝🏻 . When you buy from a small business you are supporting a dream and idea and a goal. You are providing for a family and their needs, desires and wants. You are loving the maker and encouraging them; their failures and missteps leading up to the success that you see on the screen or paper! :) . You are essentially providing a way of living for the artist, dreamer and doer! THANK YOU! Thank you, like, A LOT! . . . #abeautifulmess #makersgonnamake #shopsmall #etsyseller #shophandmade #etsyshop #handcrafted #smallbusiness #girlboss #handlettered #ipadprocreate #mompreneur #entrepreneur #handmadewithlove #etsy #shopify #bossbabe #makersmovement #makingit #makingitcasting #handsandhustle #creativelifehappylife #momboss
  • 🎶It’s the moooooost wonderful time of the year🎶⁣ .⁣ It’s that time of the year where traditions are bubbling up everywhere and today is my *most favorite* traditions for our family; IT’S TREEEEEE HUNTING DAY! You see, every year we bundle up, trek to my fave tree farm (👋🏻 @levertystraditionaltrees), hunt for the best and most beautiful tree, chop it down, haul it home and decorate decorate decorate. IN between all of this we add blaring holiday music, lots of hot cocoa (and some hot buttered rums for the mama) and of course the talk of our traditions and memories and years before now! :)⁣ .⁣ And every year we make a video of this day, because I 9000% want my kids to be able to relive this tradition year after year after year (and it makes my mama heart happy to see growth and holidays on video)! So stay tuned for our holiday video ANNNNND tell me, what traditions do you love so much???? :) ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #christmas #treehunting #cutyourown #hudsonwi #christmastree #familytradition #levertystraditionaltrees #mompreneur #creativityfound #joy #serchforjoy ⁣ #calledtobecreative #creativelifehappylife #amblifeiscolorful #abeautifulmess #mycreativebiz #handsandhustle
