UPDATE: I just printed up on regular paper the hands quote with teacher names. I then took it to a Copy store and asked for them to make a transparent copy of my paper copy. It was $1 for both my pages. I then cut each out, rolled the transparent copies up and slipped them inside the bottle. Then took a pencil or something to push the transparent copy up to the side of the sanitizer bottle.
This week is teacher appreciation. Each of my kids has a teacher and tutor, AND then each class adopted an office staff member or a specials teacher.
So that means 3 teachers times 4 kids is 12 gifts.
For our school they do something each day. The first day is homemade cards. Then the next day each kid brings a flower to contribute to each teacher's vase. The next day is a healthy snack or fruit to contribute to a big basket for each teacher. Then they have a gift basket one day, where everyone puts their little gifts in. This is also for the gift cards from the $ contributed.
ANYWAY, the cards are done, the small gifts are done ...
Now to just run to Costco tomorrow for the flowers and fruit. Always something to do....

I love this idea! Did you just print clear label type stickers and put on hand sanitizer bottles? This is a fabulous idea!!! Thanks for sharing it.
Shauna - Thanks so much for sharing all of these great ideas! I just posted a little tribute to your blog on my family blog (http://byufamily.blogspot.com/2010/05/one-of-my-favorite-bloggers.html). Just thought you'd want to know, because that is the kind of thing I like to know. :)
this is such a FANTASTIC idea!!!!!!!!! I've always wondered how people made these--- thanks for sharing your tips. AND wouldn't these would make ultra cool christmas stocking stuffers and mini bday gifts too? Party favors? ANYTHING!! :):) I'm going to try to see if I can print them in color!
I love this idea and LOVE your blog too! Where do I find the quote and how big did you make each quote?
Just email me and I will send you the version that I made and you can tweak it to what you need.

I love this idea! Can you post a link to the poem, maybe a version with your fonts, so we can just plug in the teacher's name and copy what you did? That would be awesome!
Would it work to just print directly on a transparency sheet? Love this idea!
I had a parent who did a very creative present once (knowing that I love Halloween, autumn, and the movie You've Got Mail). I thought this was simply brilliant…
