My neighbor decided to start her first year of homeschooling this year. Her daughter is entering 7th grade. She is feeling a bit apprehensive so I made her a little gift bag of encouragement.
I found a cute canvas teacher tote bag with a tassel at TJ Maxx on clearance for $4. I filled the bag with cute stationary, hair elastics, a scrunchie, and candy from The Dollar ($1.25) Tree. It’s like a back-to-homeschool stocking.


I had so much fun putting this together. I really hope she likes it, and I wish her every success in her homeschooling endeavor!
Happy homeschooling friends!
What a thoughtful, practical, and fun thing to do. And a great bag for future purchases for the new homeschooling mom.
