Back To School- 20 Art Teacher Appreciation Gift Ideas

Writer's picture: Paint N PuffPaint N Puff

I can't believe it's August already, I feel like I just yelled Happy New Year to the world yesterday. I guess that's why they say "time flies." Summer Break is almost over for most students, so it's time to get ready for another school year! Teachers far and wide are preparing to fill young minds with new thoughts. Most have spent their summer going over lesson plans and/or furthering their education. I've got many teachers in my family. I know how hard they work each summer while their students get a break and vacation with family. A teacher's job is never done, so maybe we should show them a little appreciation with a small gift of gratitude. As an Art Instructor myself, well, maybe more of an enterpainter… I searched Amazon for gifts, and found twenty treasures an Art Teacher would love.


1.) Artist Palette and Paintbrush Earrings- These adorable mismatched palette and paintbrush earrings are a perfect way to say "I appreciate you" to a special creator in your life. These handmade earrings come ready for gifting in a beautiful turquoise box with an elastic silver ribbon. You'll definitely be one of the teacher's favorites in class after gifting these!

The wooden handles are made from bamboo, and the shiny metallic paint on the tips really make these stand out on a desk. They are not just fun, but they write very smoothly. Wouldn't you love to see your teacher grading papers with these?!
