Free Printable Teacher Gift Tags for Straws

Looking for a fun, last-minute way to say “thank you” to your favorite teacher? These free printable teacher straw tags add the perfect touch of thoughtful and creative – and they take less than 5 minutes to make! With a colorful school-themed rainbow design, they’re sure to brighten up any teacher’s day.


What Are Teacher Straw Tags?

Our fun straw tags simply slide onto the side of a drinking straw – perfect for attaching to a reusable iced coffee, smoothie cup. Our free printable version is designed with a sweet school rainbow and has space on the back for you or your child to write a personal note of appreciation.


🖨️ What You’ll Need

  • Cardstock or printer paper (cardstock works best for sturdiness but I used printer paper in the photos)
  • Scissors
  • craft knife
  • Your favorite straws
  • pen or marker for your message

✂️ How to Make Them

  1. Download and print the teacher straw tags on cardstock or printer paper.
  2. Cut out each tag along the edge.
  3. Using a craft knife, carefully cut two small slits on opposite sides of the tag. This will let the straw slide through.
  4. Slide the tag onto the straw – it should sit securely without glue or tape!
  5. On the back, write a custom message like “Thanks for making school so sweet!” or “Sip sip hooray for an amazing teacher!”

Why You’ll Love These

  • Quick and easy – Done in under 5 minutes!
  • Budget-friendly – Just print at home!
  • Kid-friendly – Let your child help cut, write, or assemble.
  • Customizable – Add your own note for a heartfelt touch.

Whether you’re attaching them to a cold drink for Teacher Appreciation Week, the last day of school, or just because – these printable tags are an easy way to show gratitude with a splash of color and a personal touch.

VALENTINE'S DAY

2024 Galentine Swag for your Gal Pals!

This is a holiday that I can get fully behind! Our co-founder Lisa and I have beed BFF’s ever since meeting in a baby music class when our oldest children were a wee 8 months old. It was honestly friend love at first sight. Here we are 25+ years later and a million incredible (and not so great) memories shared between us. There is no human that I would rather spend my Galentine’s Day with!

Throwing a Galentine’s Day party? I rounded up some goodies to make Galentine’s Day 2024 extra sweet!

No 1. I am loving these heart shaped glasses for an instant cool girl vibe

No 2. These Custom Treat Labels are perfect to label any homemade sweet treats

No 3. A baker is gonna bake bake bake and needs something pretty to put the final product on! How about a red cake stand?

No 4. Sometimes a good old shot of tequila is the best medicine for a broken heart or just a good time! These custom Valentine’s Day label + bottle kits are so fun and easy to fill with your favorite spirit of choice.

No 5. OMG! I ❤️ these fun conversation heart napkins! They will be a perfect addition to your sweets table.

No 6. They say love is the best medicine but sometimes you just need an Advil! Fill up these custom I Got Too Lit Kits with all the things you know they will need to enter the next day hydrated and headache free.

No 7. I guess I am assuming that there will be a lot of sipping going on so you will obviously need a cute heart straw!

No 8. Come on girls, we have all been part of this club at some point. If you and your ladies are at this stage… this Anti Love Club custom tote is for you! They are also available in smaller favor bags and are ready to fill with goodies.

No 9. Nothing sets the mood better than candlelight. I am crazy about these pink glass candleholders and will be using them year round!

I hope you see something here that you love and can use to create the best Valentine’s Day ever!

Chicago Style Custom Welcome Ideas

I am certainly biased but, Chicago is one of the best cities in the world to visit. While I would suggest to steer clear of our “Windy City” in the winter, our other three seasons offer a plethora of amazing things to do and eat! From iconic landmarks and museums to diverse neighborhoods and a vibrant food scene, your friends and family will never run out of things to do!

Here our some of our favorite local items to help you create a memorable welcome kit for guests visiting Chicago!

  1. Chicago Skyline Favor Labels – Joy & Chaos. There are many label sizes and shapes to fit on any of your favors.
  2. Goose Island Beer – Total Wine & More. This is a local (and personal) favorite. If you like this light summery brew, visit Goose Island Beer Co for more local made favs!
  3. Caramel & Cheese Popcorn – Garretts Popcorn. An absolutely addictive treat that you won’t be sorry that you can’t stop eating!
  4. Mint Chocolates – Garretts Popcorn . They were originally made in the candy kitchen on Marshall Field’s 13th floor, now Macy’s…sigh… Chicagoans are still salty about our loss of Marshall Fields but thankfully we can still get our hands on this quintessential Chicago treat!
  5. Chicago Survival Kit Bags – Joy & Chaos. These canvas gift bags are available in 3 sizes to choose from to hold goodies both big and small.
  6. Doublemint Gum- Amazon. Wrigley introduced this minty in 1914 and we have been chomping away ever since!

Below are a couple of books to help explore our beautiful city and would make a great addition to your welcome packages.
