Christmas Blogging Challenge

 Last night, Elisan and I finished up the teacher gifts.  This year, I kept it simple and inexpensive.  I bought each teacher a metal tin (found at Hobby Lobby for 50% off) and filled it with dark chocolate kisses, chocolate mint patties and peppermints.

I also designed a set of four notecards (16 notecards per teacher) with each teacher's name on it.  I printed these up at Kinko's in black and white, using my own cardstock.

Cost breakdown:
Tins $10.00 ($1.00 each x10)
Printing at Kinkos: $8.00 (for 40 pages)
Candy: $7.00 (1 bag kisses, 1 bag of mint patties, 1 bag of peppermints)
Ribbon/Cardstock/Envelopes/Clear Gift Bags: From my personal stash
TOTAL: $25.00 (divided by 10 = $2.50/teacher)

Here are the personalized cards I designed for each teacher.  I used this design two years ago and it was so popular, I decided to update it a bit and use it again.
