Cup holder caddy

Brenda Hall is a serious crafter, but for teacher appreciation she goes for simple, useful, and affordable gifts her children can help her make. For this project, she used a cardboard cup holder like those used for restaurant to-go orders. She covered it in chalkboard spray paint and asked her daughter to write a message to her teacher in white chalk. Then Hall, who blogs at Seasons of Joy, filled the caddy with school supplies, a gift card, and candy. She clipped on a poem about teachers that ties in to the colored candies in the caddy.
