Hello friends. I seek advice searching for a good present for a teacher of mine who has been nothing short of amazing the past 18 months. I’m finishing grad school and I want to get her something unique, but functional. I don’t want to get her things like candy or chocolate. For the card, I am making her a crazy one based on inside jokes, ideas, and projects we’ve discussed and projects worked on. She’s not just my teacher, she has told me “I’m your mentor and friend and my students are also my kids.”

I want to get her something awesome. You folks always have good gift ideas... thanks for your suggestions!

She would like it, actually. “This is so bizarre, I love it! Where do you find this stuff? ”

If Nibby were to gift me something I’d expect exactly whatever the hell that is.

If she were wise, she wouldn’t ask where you got that.

Make a plate at a ceramics place, paint it yourself, put your handprint on it.

Some strange modern art?

That’s where the thank you card comes into play. It’ll be a work of modern art, alright.

Will it look like something that Hannibal Lecter would like?

She reads a lot of books and I thought a nice tote bag for carrying books would be a good present. I want to get one a bit more personalized though, maybe one with her initials.

You can have it monogrammed pretty cheaply. That's a great idea.
