This craft was done by me and Dee exactly 3 months back as a valentine's gift for her school friends.. But it can be given as class gift anytime especially the end of the school year.

Heart Bookmark






Materials Required



Acrylic paint or any paint
Foam sheets in different colors
Popsicle Sticks
A little helper

How we did it

1. Took the popsicle stick and drew a few lines. Made a dot between 2 lines so that Dee know where to paint






2. Cut hearts from foam and glued it to the popsicle stick using glue dots. White glue might work but might take a while to dry.


3. Put each bookmark in a rectangular piece of design paper . Dee wrote each friends name on the back.


That's it!!!. A simple but cute gift

Teachers appreciation day/week is one thing i always remember and Dee and me buy some gifts for her teacher and add a little bit of handmade touch to it.

This year we wanted to make it simple but cute and decided on the notebook canvas bag..

Materials Needed

Plain white Canvas Bag
Fabric Markers(You can use sharpie but fabric markers are best for long term use since they dont fade)


How We did

1. Took a plain canvas bag and ironed it




2. Took a ruler and red fabric marker and draw a vertical line along the left side of the canvas bag.
Then took blue fabric marker and draw many horizontal lines from the top to the bottom of the bag. Repeated the same on both sides.


3. Dee wrote the teachers name between two lines using the orange and purple fabric markers


4. Then we got some Dove chocolates wrapped it and Dee wrote some sweet words for her teacher. Packed the chocolates inside the bag.


5. A handmade thank you card with a few words from me and Pravin appreciating the teachers efforts and care towards our kids education.


Everything was made last minute and so didnt take many phot0s. The card was done 2 minutes before school..

Im happy that the teacher loved the bag and Dee is happy that she gave a unique gift to her teacher...
