Personalized Clipboards – A Great Gift for Teachers or Coaches! http://sarahandabraham.com/blog/2013/05/21/new-personalized-clipboards-a-great-gift-for-teachers-or-coaches/ http://sarahandabraham.com/blog/2013/05/21/new-personalized-clipboards-a-great-gift-for-teachers-or-coaches/#comments Tue, 21 May 2013 00:43:10 +0000 saratams http://sarahandabraham.com/blog/?p=1285 Continue reading →]]> This is a personalized clipboard that I ordered for my kids’ gym teacher. I know lots of schools are getting out soon, but I love how it turned out so I went ahead and added several designs to the teacher gifts section in my shop. I think these would make such a great teacher gift or a gift for your child’s coaches!

From the time you place your order, these take about 3-4 business days for production, and then they’re shipped from California. Shipping could take anywhere from 1-7 days depending on your location.

Now that I’m able to offer full-bleed printing, I’m starting to play with color and design a little more & I’m really happy with how these turned out.

If you’d like to order the dots or hearts notepads for kids with just a name, you can just type “none” in the Contact Info field.

I recently ordered a sample and absolutely loved how it turned out. As I was photographing it in a few different spots in my house I thought, how cool would it be if your husband ordered one of these for you and surprised you with coffee in bed one morning?!

These melamine platters measure 10″ x 14″, which makes them just the right size for serving appetizers to guests, setting out cookies, or a light breakfast in bed.

I’m offering several different designs, any of which would be perfect for entertaining or to give as a gift. I think the hearts design especially would make a great housewarming gift,  engagement gift, or anniversary gift!

It’s May 6th – May 10th this year.

Our personalized teacher notepads are our bestselling teacher gifts. I give these to my kids’ teachers every year, and they always go crazy over them. Several of them have come to my website to order more for themselves and gifts for their teacher friends as well!

Personalized teacher note cards also make a great gift. When your child’s teacher is sending out thank you notes or maybe writing notes to welcome next year’s incoming students, it’ll be a much more enjoyable task when she’s using these thick note cards and sending them off in beautiful Paper Source envelopes.

Place your order soon to ensure delivery well before Teacher Appreciation Week!

I’ve also discontinued several items (including calling cards and cupcake toppers), and I’m now outsourcing the production of my placemats, which I had previously produced in-house.

As a result of these changes, I have some equipment and supplies on hand that I no longer need. The following items are currently for sale in my Etsy shop:

  • 2 Industiral Laminators from Uline (H-1886)
  • 50 Laminating Pouches – Menu Size – 10 Mil
  • 2 CardMate Manual Business Card Cutters
  • lots of 8.5 x 11 Paper Source cardstock

The equipment is all in good, working condition, and I’m offering all of these items at great prices. Please contact me with any questions.

These pillows have always been one of my favorite products to photograph. I love seeing the delighted looks on the faces of the kids – these pillows are always such a big hit! And I’m continually amazed by just how much the pillows sometimes look like the kids!

These personalized pillows made a great accent in a nursery, but they’ll also grow with your child… my 8-year-old daughter still absolutely loves hers!

We’re now offering the pillow covers with an insert for $54.50 or just the cover (if you already have an insert) for $49.50.
