If you want to make a whole week of it, doing a color a day for your teacher with each color having some kind of “theme” is a fun idea. Kristy did this for her daughter’s teacher! For red, the first day, it’s all about the teacher….the things she likes and things to spoil her with for the days she’s not teaching. Items include a Bogg bag, apple candle, Sol de Janeiro kit, and a self-care book.

Tag: “ Roses are RED & Apples are too! You’re the best teacher ever, we’re so thankful for you.”

Orange, day two, is focused on recognizing the growth she’s given the students. She also loves to garden, so this is perfect! Orange items include drinking glasses, a succulent, a personalized planter, a mister, and a seed kit.

Tags: “ ORANGE you just such a SUN-sational teacher!“ and “Thank you for helping us grow!“

Day three is yellow, a bright and shining color, so these items show her that she’s the star to the kids. Yellow gifts include a tote, lip balm, hand sanitizer, paper weights, a t-shirt, an essential oil pen, a pillow for the reading corner, and a coffee mug, of course!

Tags: “Thank you for being the STAR that taught them to SHINE“ and “The influence of a good teacher can never be erased.”

Green, day four, is a day for the classroom! These gifts are things she can use in and around like classroom, like a utility cart, Sharpies, a label maker, a pencil sharpener, a journal, essential oils, and modular seats for the kids.

Tags: “Thank you for your Commit•Mint Involve•mint Encourage•mint Invest•mint” and “Green with envy are those who wish they had you for a teacher!“ 

Blue, the final day, is for all things lunch!! Items include a lunch carrier, a mini to-go Crockpot, a Bentgo container, a snacks bag, a sand art light that’s great for lunchtime relaxation or meditation, and a Stanley tumbler.

Tags: “Just something out of the blue to say we appreciate you!“ and “We appreciate you a whole bunch, so please enjoy some lunch!“ 

And if you’d rather do one gift on Teacher Appreciation Day (May 7th), a gift bag stuffed with self-care goodies is always a hit! Grab a tote and fill it with Sharpies, this cute acrylic desk sign, a canvas pouch with keychains, body scrub, body wash, lip balm, a lip mask, face masks, and a facial scrub!

Summer = party time! Grad parties, pool parties, backyard BBQs, and holiday soirées…summer is the season of celebrations. Make sure you’re party ready with one of these gorgeous getups.

Maybe you’re all work and no play. Which is okay, but don’t ignore the benefits of a healthy work-life balance! These dresses will have you looking chic in the office, and they can definitely be worn to date night after, too!

Pool days, beach trips, and lake vacations. Whatever your preferred form of water-centric recreation, get yourself a swimsuit to rock that will steal the show.

Don’t forget your coverup! These will come in handy when you’re trying to enjoy your liquid lunch at one of those “no shirt, no shoes, no service” places.

And if you’re team #summerbod, grab a few workout pieces that will make you excited to get your sweat on.

We’re all about deals and steals at Frugal and Thriving, and Poshmark is the perfect way to get designer or name-brand goods for just a fraction of the cost. Kristy started a Poshmark closet to share some of her favorite products with the F&T community for less than the normal purchase price! The best part – she’s sharing her wardrobe with you while giving back. All proceeds from her closet will be donated to a different charity every year! See what it’s all about below.

If you’re unfamiliar with Poshmark, it’s a site where you can sell brand new or lightly used goods for a discounted price! Sellers list their items with info about the products including sizing and fit (Kristy is 5’3” – 120lbs for reference) and accompanying photos, along with a suggested buying price! Pricing is always negotiable. Kristy started her closet in order to declutter while giving back – all proceeds will be donated to a charity in need at the end of the year. Every December we will pick a new charity to donate to! Keep reading to see some of the items listed on Kristy’s Poshmark closet and the donations from this year!

This chic cropped sweater is the perfect cold weather wardrobe staple! Wear it with anything – whether you choose jeans, leggings, boots, or wedge sneakers, this is look you can rock all season long. It even has a little pocket for some extra style!

This fun dotted ruffle dress makes an adorable outfit on its own with sandals, or style it with a cardigan or jean jacket and booties for a transitional outfit between seasons!

These rust-colored velvet shoes are a hot addition to any outfit! They are great for dressing up a jeans and blazer look for work or pairing with a fun dress for date night or an event.

This Vera Bradley sling bag is a favorite!! It’s not only super cute, it’s also really convenient for traveling and going on trips with kids. When your hands are occupied with a thousand other things, worrying about carrying a bag should be the last thing on your mind! This bag has tons of pockets and compartments so you can carry everything you need with ease.

And these are just a few examples of what’s available in Kristy’s Poshmark closet. Shop hundreds of items including everything from women’s fashion and kids’ apparel to home decor and maternity!!

These were the gifts purchased with this year’s proceeds! Kristy shopped for Christmas gifts for kids in need from various charity groups including Cape May County Caring for Kids and the New Jersey Department of Children and Families. She was also able to donate $200 worth of jackets and little kids’ clothes to Holy Redeemer Healthy Families Program in Cape May Court House. 

The goal for 2023 is to at least double this donation amount! Every little bit counts and we are so thankful for your continued support in the Frugal and Thriving community!!
