Valentine’s Day Gift for Teachers

I know Alex’s teachers like chocolate (who doesn’t?), so for Valentine’s Day, I wanted to fill three mason jars with chocolate in white, pink and red colors. I got two bags of M&M’s and two bags of Hershey kisses (the Valentine editions) and sorted the colors.  

I then filled each jar with just one color (except for one, I used a combination of pink and white). 

I wrote “Love having you as a teacher” on cardstock that matched the chocolate, cut it out, attached it to a doily and then tied with red and white baker’s twine. I also cut out circles for the tops of the mason jars in the same color as the tags.

The gifts were cheap ($1.50 for the mason jars, about $4.00 for each bag of candy—so, about $7 a gift). A great, easy way to show your appreciation!
