Teacher Appreciation Week is May 6th-10th and if you want to show your school spirit and gratitude for our educators and school professionals, a thoughtful gift is a great way to do so. See our Teacher Appreciation Week gift inspiration below.
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 will be here before we know it and we’re already dreaming of all the ways we can update our wardrobes with the best styles of the season. From social festivities to days at the desk, and vacations by the water to early morning runs, Walmart has everything you need to make this a summer of fashion-forward moments. See our Walmart summer fashion inspiration below.
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.
If you ask people where they spend the majority of their time in their home, most would probably say their kitchen. The kitchen is the heart of the home and the main hub where, really, all the action happens. From starting the morning with a cup of coffee or a healthy breakfast to ending the day with a nourishing family meal, the kitchen starts and ends our days and sets the stage for a lot of scenes throughout our day. Whether you’re gossiping with girls over an afternoon glass of wine or sharing a sweet dessert with your kiddos after sundown, having an organized kitchen makes all the difference in your day-to-day operations, and that’s no exaggeration. See our kitchen organization ideas below.
If you start your day with a giant, delicious cup of coffee, having an organized and dedicated coffee station can help set the tone for your morning. Get yourself a nice coffee machine and milk frother, use this wooden riser to store your flavored syrups in pretty bottles, coffee pods, and stirring spoons, and start every day in your own mini cafe.
If you’ve got a family that you’re regularly cooking dinner for, chances are you end up with leftovers pretty regularly. Finding the right lid for the correct corresponding container in your jumbled Tupperware cabinet can honestly be the final straw of a really chaotic day. These drawer dividers will help take the stress out of saving the leftovers.
Use the dividers to organize your packed lunch supplies, too! From Bentgo boxes to mini Crockpots, these dividers will keep all of your on-the-go essentials in easy reach.
The worst thing is trying to find the utensil you need from the depths of your utensil drawer when you’re in the middle of cooking. With these drawer dividers you can quickly spot whichever tool you need and avoid a cooking crisis.
So. Many. Water bottles. If you’ve got a big family, then you know everyone wants their own water bottles and to-go tumblers. And one is never enough! You need different colors, pretty patterns, and all the sizes. Take your water bottle cabinet from a hectic mess to a fabulous haven of hydration with these organizers.
Opening your refrigerator and seeing clean, organized sustenance is, like, an incredible feeling. From a leftover pizza storage container to an egg organizer and see-through bins for everything else you can imagine, these refrigerator organization essentials will be life changing.
And for your drinks, these dispensers will make sure you never have to reach all the way to back to grab that last thirst-quenching beverage!
If you have a designated pull-out cabinet for your trash bin but you prefer using a motion sensor one or this just isn’t enough space for your garbage can, don’t let this cabinet go to waste! This hack with storage bins makes the most of this space by adding extra out-of-sight storage.
Cleaning supplies are a must, and it’s so easy for them to end up causing more of a mess when they’re shoved underneath your sink. These roll-out and stackable bins make cleaning supply storage a breeze.
The junk drawer always feels like a scary place to visit, but with the help of these drawer dividers, this will be your new favorite drawer! Keep all of your extra hardware and tools organized and easily available.
This extra towel bar is great for adding a splash of seasonal decor to your kitchen or for making sure you have plenty of extra dish towels within reach.

Revamping and reorganizing any space can feel a little overwhelming, but it’s oh so satisfying once it’s done. And your kitchen pantry is one of those places in the house that just seems to accumulate clutter and detritus over the years. Opening that door and deciding to tackle a little DIY organization is definitely daunting, but we’ve got a solution for you! Easy Closets helps you transform your space with minimal time and effort. Kristy redid her kitchen pantry using an Easy Closets system and it was life changing! AND – right now you can get 10% off your order with our exclusive code KRISTY10 *valid through 11/21! See Kristy’s pantry transformation below.
There’s nothing I love more than organization. With my pantry needing all the help it could get, I was desperate to find a simple, manageable solution without going broke. And then I stumbled across this Easy Closets system. The name says it all…it was EASY to put together! Going from the before (bottom) to the after (top) was actually a seamless process and only took me two days to complete!!
This is my pantry before…yikes. I started the redo by measuring my space. Once I submitted my measurements, Easy Closets put together a plan for my pantry (request a free design plan here)! They send you a specially tailored layout that you can then choose to love, modify, or switch out for a completely different plan! You can do this as many times as you want until you find the perfect layout for your space and your needs. The representatives at Easy Closets made the planning part painless for me and helped transform my space with ease! You can also browse their design gallery here. They design pantries, closets, laundry room and garage storage, and more!
Step one: clear out the pantry and take out the old shelving units. This was the worst part – ugh those wire racks. Make sure to take all trim off if you have it. This will allow the new shelves to lay flat on the wall when you install them!
With all of the old shelving out, it was time to install my new Easy Closets system!!
The installation was super simple and it didn’t take me long at all! I couldn’t believe how much of a difference it made to have separate shelves and cubbies. I was actually excited to reorganize and put everything away in its new place!
Look at all of that organization!! It’s so much cleaner and less cluttered. A neat freak’s dream come true!
I can see everything in my pantry with ease and know with just a glance what I need to stock up on or what I have enough of. This may not sound like a huge deal but knowing exactly what I need helps cut down on multiple weekly trips to the grocery store! And anything that can save a little time and make life a little easier is a huge blessing.
Even my paper products and cleaning supplies are neat and organized now! The pullout drawers are great for storing things like aluminum foil, parchment paper, and Ziploc bags, or items I don’t use every day like baking supplies and party goods.
And just like that I have a brand new, beautiful pantry. I seriously love just looking at it, and the fact that it was so easy to transform makes it that much more enjoyable!! No matter how big or small your space is, Easy Closets has you covered!
