Also getting started on some Christmas gifts. My family also has several birthdays beginning in November thru January so I make a lot of our gifts.
Here are some ideas for teacher gifts though. If you are interested in anything please contact me at pinkowldesigns@gmail.com

I'm a list freak, usually have 2 or 3 going at once and am always losing one as well. I have found a great way to keep track of the lists I usually make while sitting at my computer. I'm always writing down a website or product or something else and usually that is the list I lose. Because it was always on a stray piece of paper I found laying on my desk. With this I keep them close to my computer, but also no more stray pieces of paper to lose.

A tiny tin of notes that they can send home with a special kid. Also a great idea for parents to leave for kids. Who doesn't love a note letting them know they did a great job.

I'm a post-it-note junkie and what better way to keep track of them, then on a fancy coaster.
I am still running my gift tag special with purchase of Holiday cards.
