Have you got your back to school gifts for teachers ready to go? Can you believe it’s already time to ship the children back to school? Personally, as both a non-parent and a full time worker, I have mixed emotions. I’m definitely not ready for the school zones to be back, but at the same time, I am ready for the lunch line at Chick-fil-a to be just a little shorter. C’mon, you think so too!
In case you haven’t put your back to school gifts for teachers together, never fear! This clipboard idea is easy-peasy and will be used all year round.

BACK TO SCHOOL GIFT FOR TEACHERS: DIY CLIPBOARD [SUPPLY LIST]
- Clipboard (I found mine in the dollar section at Target)
- Matte Mod Podge
- Paintbrush
- Scrapbook or Wrapping Paper
First, cut out your scrapbook or wrapping paper. I chose this scrapbook paper that I found at Michaels, and it reminds me so much of the beautiful flowers from Rifle Paper Co! I just cut it apart leaving a small space so the flowers wouldn’t bleed into the clipboard too much.
Once it’s all cut out, place it on your clipboard how you want it. Remove it, then put a layer of Matte Mod Podge on your clipboard. Press your paper down again, and let dry for a few minutes. Then, paint another layer of Mod Podge on top to seal everything together.
All in all, this Back to School Gift for a teacher takes only a few minutes to create, and only about 30 minutes total in dry time. Also, this gift idea will cost you less than $10 — it definitely doesn’t look it!
