I was discharged on the weekend prior to Teacher's day, and Tara's day care was closed on the day itself thus she was only able to give her gifts one day after T day. Last year, I bought flowers for all the other teachers and helpers and even made gifts for her Ah Yis but this year, I cut short everything and only made gifts for her own teachers, 3 of them.
This year, I made memo boards bought from Daiso. Okay, actually both Tara and I made the gifts but I did the major part of it. She only painted parts of the frame, made the tags, with her own handwritten note. She was involved more last year since I was more well-prepared. Ah well.
Pictures here:
Haven't scrapped for ages, so didn't have no mojo to do these. So there, something simple for the teachers to use. Hope they like it.
And I bought kraft paper from the provision shop downstairs to wrap the gifts.
And they look like parcels. I never liked to buy pretty wrapping papers to wrap up the gifts I've made because I just like the minimalist and rugged feel. For smaller gifts, I even bought clear bags to contain them, making no effort to conceal the gifts in layers of papers because the papers that I use to make the gifts are pretty enough and there's no reason to hide them.
Tara's handwritten notes. I think only she can make out what she wrote.
I had to help her with the chinese one, since she has yet to learn to write chinese.
