Did you know that Teacher Appreciation Week is coming up?! When I was trying to decide what to do for my girls' teachers this year, I scoured the internet to find the best teacher gifts. I was literally OVERWHELMED with all the different ideas! I made my list of best teacher gifts to consider and thought y'all may want to see it too. I've included DIY ideas, as well as gifts you can purchase. Normally I make my own gifts because I love putting the time and effort into something super cute, but this year we have so much happening around our house I just don't know if I will have time, and I am obsessed with some of the jewelry options. They are heartfelt without being cutesy. Check out my list of the best teacher gifts and see which project or gift inspires the perfect present for your kids' teachers.

Before we get to the list of the best teacher gifts I have found, I want to share some FREE printable teacher thank you notes that I made! To get the free teacher thank you notes delivered to your inbox, all you have to do is subscribe to my email newsletter and they will show up in your inbox in just a few minutes.
