Just wanted to pop in and share a quick and adorable teacher gift idea! You could also do this for bosses, friends, coworkers, doctors, etc. The classes here collect money from all the parents to gift the teachers with a nice gift card from their favorite place(s). This was so tough for me in the beginning because I love doing my own thing. We quickly decided that we would still do a little gift, just from us, while still contributing to the class gift. A few years ago, I discovered the mini sparkle trees at Trader Joe’s and I love them. I have bought 12 so far this year. Yep, we love them and have them all over the place! I realized immediately upon discovering them, years ago, that these mini trees fit inside a coffee mug perfectly. Seriously, it’s a perfect fit. I pop a tree into our favorite limited edition monogram mugs and it makes the perfect gift. The little presidents make a card, we tie them on each mug and call it a day! If you can’t find mini trees locally, add some flowers, a mini basil plant, a poinsettia, etc! The possibilities are endless! You can also fill the mug with tinsel and call it a day as well. Either way, these mugs are always a hit and they are just so cute, don’t you think?!
Here are a few mugs that we love that would be perfect:

OMG! This is the sweetest idea and I swoon over those mugs from Anthro every seasons!
Thanks for the idea Ashley! I bought them today, and am adding a Target GC instead of the mug:) You rock!
