Teacher's Day Floral Gift from Kaison

This year, I wanted to punch myself for being unprepared... again. How is it that I fail to learn my lesson even after 9 years of having school-going kids! And the thing is, I really really appreciate teachers, and I really really love putting together a kickass personalized Instagramable gift. But every year, my kids tell me one day before D-day. GAH!!

My boys would tell me, "Just get red pens". Yes, actually those are very practical. This year, we added whiteboard markers. I can't remember when was the last time teachers use chalks. Gone are the dusting-the-blackboard-duster-by-the-window-and-trying-not-to-breathe-in-the-powder days.
I included a sweet floral notebook from Mr. DIY and a pack of sweet treats.

There was something I wanted to give to a teacher from Convent, who was transferred to the school my eldest boy is going to. It just happened in January this year and she was devastated, so I wanted to cheer her up.

Found these in Kaison. Lovely! Amazing that I found all these with colour and hue that matched so well. 

After running around like a headless chicken, everything turned out ay-okay.

I will be more prepared next year...
