Teachers are truly a blessing. Payton has 2 wonderful teachers this year. I really wanted to give them a nice gift this year. I saw something similiar to this on Pinterest and decided this would be wonderful. Plus, I love to put together gift baskets. Teachers spend so much money out of their pockets each year in supplies. I hoped this would be greatly appreciated and it was. They loved it and both thought it was a clever idea. I was shocked with how much I was able to give for so little. Below is what each basket contained and how much I spent total.
