Wednesday was "sweet treat" day for Teacher Appreciation Week. I decided to go the "Emergency Chocolate" route. I bought some small plastic containers from Wal-Mart and filled them with fun size candy bars. I used this image for the label:

Here's the label in a template form in case you want to use it yourself sometime. I left it full size so it's a big image! :-)

So after sweet treat day comes healthy snack day. (Chocolate detox?) I pulled off something kind of original, if I do say so myself.

Remember my 5K Fuel-Up that didn't happen? Well, I have some brand new hydroflasks and a bunch of stickers for decorating them. They were supposed to be party favors. Instead, I did this:

Those are veggie straws. Each teacher got two flavors. In addition to the water bottle and snacks, I included a little selection of stickers for decorating the bottle. I got them on Amazon. It was like $7 for around 200 stickers. No exaggeration!

If you like this idea and want to try a variation of your own, here's the label I made on Canva. (I am obsessed with Canva. It's like Photoshop has a friendly and understanding younger sister.)

We did a snack 180 the past couple of days, but it was fun to push my new mom creativity to new heights. As always, enjoy the images if you'd like to use them. Just pretty please send folks my way if you blog about it. :-)
