Well call me organised!! I have already thought through the teacher gifts for the end of the summer term and love the idea of giving gift cards so that they can buy something of their own choice rather than it being the same old flowers and choccies.
Male teachers are also especially hard to buy for and I am sure that a bookstore gift card would be much apprecaited which is why I have made this little pouch that can hold a gift card, a thank you card and also a little token gift too. I purchased a pen with 'special teacher' on it from a local garden centre and enclosed it in the middle using a cello bag.
I love this colour combination for the men and the little owl seemed really appropriate for a teacher, what do you think??

That’s a fantastic idea Michelle! Thanks for sharing!
You are way too organised! Great idea- love the pockets and how the gift card coordinates!
Love it. I assume the ‘Created by….’ is a stamp? Great idea, especially stamped in white on dark cardstock.
I think its a perfect man-teacher gift! Love the colours you’ve used Michelle and the little owl is most suitable!
Awww Michelle … I love it. If I was a teacher I’d be thrilled to receive something like this! (How times have changed … we used to just take an apple!?! … showing my age now!)
what a great idea, teacher gifts are always a nightmare for me to think of something suitable,very different and unusual, oh and yes you are way too organized,lol xx
Lovely colour combo – and I’m sure your gifts will be MUCH appreciated! Glad it’s not a mug, LOL
That’s gorgeous Michelle. As a teacher myself, I’d love that gift, although I am not an owl! 😀
Brilliant idea I think this would be great for all occasions too
I just love the little owl
Gorgeous and a great idea!

Well done on being so organised! 🙂 Hope you don’t have too many to make? Lovely gift for a teacher, I’m sure they’ll be thrilled to receive this!
Hope you’re well,
Bye for now.

Friendship is like earthenware: once broken, it can be mended; love is like a mirror: once broken, that ends it.Do you understand?
Unsure exactly why I’m having an issue getting into your blog. It is taking a while to load and i’m
wondering whether this might be an issue with my internet connection.
Is there anyone else who has dealt with such a problem?
I plan to keep trying with the hope that I will access it at some time.
