summer in a jar … ♥

Raising up Rubies


it’s officially summer here 🙂
school is over and we’re excited for some fun stuff ahead

last week i wanted to come up with a few small teacher gifts for the girls to bring on the last day of school … 
and i’ve been on a “gift in a jar” kick this year
so i figured i’d end the year with one more last hoo-rah 🙂

these were for teachers & school staff
but they can be for anyone!
a summer birthday party gift or a friend pick-me-up present






i tried to find things that were all the same color
the neon orange & pink together really made it look like a little bit of summer bottled up in there 🙂






i found everything at Target … mostly in the travel section 
except for the gum and the drink mixes
everything fit in there quite nicely…






with just enough room on top for the poofy bath thingy … whatever those are called






whipped up a little label and punched it out with a big round scalloped punch



which you can download and print here!






i put the hand sanitizers on the outside just because that pink was so pretty i didn’t want to hide it! 
and there ya go! sum. sum. summertime in a jar! 
heehee 🙂

  22. Love this! I'm the worst preschool mom EVER–I realized as I was pulling in to pick up my son on his last day that I totally forgot about any kind of teacher gifts! I'll save this one for next year 🙂
