12 Local Artisan Gifts Perfect for Teacher Appreciation Week

We all know teachers do so much more than teach our kids how to read and write. They also help our kiddos grow and make sure they’re safe when we’re not around. Teacher Appreciation Week is happening May 4 – 8, 2015. Say thank you to your teacher by giving them a gift with a local twist. From jewelry to jam, and classic to quirky, we found artisan-quality, locally-made gifts (all under $15) that will show our teachers how much we appreciate them. Click through the slideshow to see what we found.

Pappardelle’s Pasta

Got a foodie in your kiddos classroom? Pappardelle's Pasta comes in a wide variety of flavors (sweet potato, anyone?), and can be found in gluten free too. At only $5 for a 8 oz. bag, you can pair the pasta with a jar of tomato sauce and call it a day. You'll find them at various farmers markets around the county and online.
