Teacher Appreciation Week is right around the corner, and this year we’re expressing our thanks with a teacup gift basket. Gift baskets are a timeless gift-giving idea that can be easily customized to each gift recipient. Using a large teacup or mug instead of a basket puts a simple (and inexpensive) twist on the classic.
Thank You in a Teacup
Select a teacup or mug that reflects your teacher’s style. Make sure it’s big enough to hold 3-4 tiny treasures. Fill your teacup with a variety of small gifts to personalize this thank you gift. Use our gift ideas below to help you get started!
