I make a tied couch throw each year for DD's homeroom teacher. The others such as the band teacher, music teacher, pe teacher, school nurse, etc. usually get a bag of homemade cookies---not an over abundance, usually just a dozen if they're small, 6 if they're large. But totes are always usable, snap bags for the ladies, cell phone carriers, there's a tute on here for teabag wallets. Those with assorted flavors of tea might be what the "others" get this year.

Raptureready! Thank you so much! I went to look for the tea bag wallet tutorial and it is adorable!! I think that they will be my teacher gifts this year.... I might add a mug to go with each one, since I have a lot of mugs from another (unstarted/unfinished) project!!
What about gifts for men? Any thoughts? I guess I could make cookies.

MORE, MORE, MORE ideas, PLEASE! I LOVE these threads! I'm afraid I'll miss something if I don't read everyone. I'm undecided as to what to do for some gifts and reading these is very useful directly or junp-starts ideas.

But seeing as they are in and out of the cold on the bus, fleece or flannel scarves would be nice too.

I've decided to make beer and wine (material) mug mats...I know more people that would actually use them for beer and wine glasses more than coffee or tea mug mats...What does that say about me??? I don't even drink...LOL
