Make a Teacher Xmas Gift in 5-10 Minutes!
Having been a teacher for about 27 years, I loved getting novel and useful gifts like this whisk teacher Christmas gift. The whisk and chocolate Hersheys Kisses inside are a definite A+!
This great hostess Xmas gift or teacher Xmas gift from a whisk can be made in about 5-10 minutes with the kids helping or making it themselves. Let me show you the easy step-by-step process.
It has simple but showy packaging and I promise it will "stir up" some holiday cheer for the recipient.
Cute Craft Alert: Stocking Stuffer Gift
My good friend, Becky, gave me a “I WHISK you a Merry KISS-mas” gift several years ago. I thought it was so clever. And what cook doesn’t need a new whisk as well as a “Kiss” in the kitchen?
I’m going to make some for stocking stuffers for the ladies in my family this year and thought I’d share the idea with you. I thought they would make wonderful Christmas gifts for teachers or your host/hostess too.
Supplies for a DIY Teacher Xmas Gift
Here are a few quick notes about the supplies you will need to make this xmas hostess gift or teacher xmas gift!
- Whisk- The smaller sized whisk holds the candy better .
- Hershey Kisses candy- Purchase a large bag of Hershey Kisses.
- Whisk Hostess Gift Free Printable- Print off a copy of the labels or make your own. Here’s the link: Free Printable Link for DIY Teacher Xmas Gift: Whisk & Hershey Kisses.
- Cellophane wrap- Cellophane wrap on a roll like gift wrap works well. I used clear.
- Ribbon- Simple curling ribbon works well but any ribbon can be used to tie the top of the gift.
- Scissors-
- Hole Punch-
Steps to Make a Christmas Presents for Teachers
- Color designs on the labels found on the ***Whisk Hostess Gift Free Printable. Cut them out on the heavy black lines. Use the hole punch to place a hole on the left end of the label.
- Cut a piece of clear cellophane from the roll. Cut the length as long as it is wide- into a square. Place the whisk on the cellophane so the large part of the wires is at the center of the square.
- Fill the wire area of the whisk with Hershey Kisses. Kind of hold them in place while you wrap the cellophane up, surrounding the handle of the whisk.
- Use the ribbon to tie around the handle of the whisk. Tie a knot to hold it in place. Add the label onto the ribbon and tie it on. Then tie the ribbon into a bow.
- Curl the extra ends of the ribbon. Trim up the top of the cellophane to be shorter if it is too long. You’re done. About 5-10 minutes, right?
Craft Tips Last Minute Xmas Gifts
These tips can help making your homemade Christmas gift even easier!
- Purchase the smaller sized whisk (about 6 inches long) instead of the large one as the candy stays in place better.
- Larger whisk- You could place the Kisses inside some plastic wrap, so they stay in the larger whisk better.
Craft Variations- Teacher Christmas Gifts
Here are a few variations you’re welcome to try with this hostess gift at christmas craft:
- Use Hershey Kisses and Hershey Hugs so you can honestly sign XOXO!
- Plastic Wrap- Place the Kisses inside of plastic wrap so they stay in the whisk better.
- Colored cellophane wrap instead of clear would be a fun change up.
- Use this gift for other occasions, not just a Christmas hostess gifts- like a DIY Mother's Day gift, DIY birthday gift, or DIY Valentine's Day gift!
