This Teachers’ Day make something special for your guru

Say ‘Thank you’ with a handmade card and a heartfelt note

This Teachers’ Day, make your favourite teacher feel special with something creative and handmade. Craft a DIY card and write a heartfelt ‘thank you’ note inside. A handmade gift adds a personal touch and shows your sincere appreciation. Here are two DIY card-making ideas to inspire you:

• Card in action: Make a fun, interactive card for your teacher. Crafter @gayatriscrafts has shared a reel showing how to make a card that reveals ‘Happy Teachers’ Day’. The card resembles a mini blackboard. You can make this and add a handwritten note inside

• Sweet and simple card: If you need a last-minute idea, check out @la_craftsvilla’s quick and easy card. It’s both pretty and provides ample space to write your message 

What are you waiting for? Gather your art supplies and crafting tools, and get started. Your teacher will surely appreciate this thoughtful gesture.
