Kerryn, they look lovely. I'm sure the teachers will enjoy them.

Lovely Kerryn, and love the list of what's inside.
I ran out of time with mine and had planned on writing what was in them but didn't.
I did noodle boxes decorated with Christmas stickers, filled with the Christmas shortbread and handmade chocs. Not quite all that I'd planned but ran out of time. Oh and that's for those that got them - dd1's teachers met a nasty end when a painting came down, taking with it the long light fitting under it and smashing his box that was on the dining table underneath! I had also contributed (and organised and paid surcharge for voucher) to a Westfield Voucher for the teachers so didn't feel so bad. dd2's teacher I also made a hand beaded bookmark as everyone loves these and she loves books.

You girls are so clever.  Talking about running out of time, I think we should start in June

Zan it's probably off topic but I'd love to see one of your beaded bookmarks... Oh and the fact that I got the contents written out was fluke (and a failure to attend the final assembly... but somethings gotta give).

Cheers,

Kerryn there are some on my store - http://www.artezan.com.au - basically I use a charm and then some beads - usually Swarovski crystal or semi precious stones. They are lovely teacher presents or for any other gift for book lovers as they can be so easily personalised. dd1 was very excited as I made her her first Swarovski crystal one for her birthday, before I've just given the kids regular bead ones.
I do worry about not doing contents for mine as there were nuts (cashew or almond) in one of the chocs, but guess as the teacher isn't allergic it'll be ok).
