Top 5 Gifts For Teachers
1) Book Themed Lightweight Scarf
Wrap a book lover (maybe that’s you!) in a literary scarf bearing the words from a classic piece of literature. The square scarves are handcrafted in Oregon with screen-printed text that’s heat-set to help prevent fading. Each scarf beautifully celebrates a book or poem in soft, durable, and lightweight cotton jersey.
2) Harlow Monocle Necklace
Seeing is believing with this monocle necklace. It looks like a shiny, sparkly accessory—and it is—but it’s also a stealthy way to see better. Hold the crystal-encrusted, diamond-shaped pendant up to your eye and move what you want to read closer until it comes into focus. It’s a perfectly convenient piece that helps out with reading menus, price tags and more—no glasses needed.
3) Temperature-Controlled Travel Mug
Thero: Temperature-Controlled Travel Mug - Silver
4) Devi Artisanal Chocolate Gift Box
The Devi Artisanal Chocolate Gift Box is handcrafted and adorned with Nelumbo custom artwork. Devi is the feminine energy in the universe. It is linked with virtues of beauty, love, grace, passion, and compassion. Includes an assortment of five Rasã Bars. Ayurveda inspired and created from handmade raw chocolates that are free of dairy, refined sugars, gluten, preservatives, and emulsifiers. Made in the USA.
5) 18 Count Sleeve - Mixed Metal
