At the end of the school year, students usually give their teachers presents. If you're thinking of best gifts for her, you should consider something that will not only be memorable but also functional. While there are tons of ideas around, teachers can get tired of the usual presents and all those boring gifts that she won't actually use or need.

A farewell gift at the end of the year is a commemoration of one year of hard work and gives honor to a teacher who helped you achieve success. It may be a really difficult process looking at the variety of gifts available that you can give her, but with these few suggestions, you'll be able to narrow down your choices and make an informed decision. For someone who loves to read, you can get her a subscription of her favorite magazines or volumes of work from her favorite author. If you're unsure of what she likes to read, you can visit a bookstore and get her gift certificates so she can purchase the book that she would like to have.

Teachers also love to receive presents that they can use to do their household chores. You won't go wrong with intricately handcrafted olive wood utensils she can use in her kitchen. They're made from high quality wood overlay and carefully crafted for those with discerning tastes.

Other home items you can get are photo keepers, handcrafted frames, a wooden desk or small cabinet for all her paper works, a bookshelf where she can keep all her favorite books, and a magazine rack.

If she's a nature lover, you can book her on a vacation for a day or two. Favorite hotspots are beaches, nature parks, and even hiking trails for the adventurous ones. You can even ask the entire class to join her and organize a program for the entire day.

If you have the budget to spend, you can purchase gadgets like a netbook for all her paperworks, an mp3 player so she can relax with her favorite music, or a laser presenter that she can also use in the classroom.

Other interesting gift ideas include gift cards and vouchers to her favorite salon or day spa, small pots of herbs for her garden or for her desk, a subscription to a non-profit organization, season tickets for plays and musicals, an elegant hand bag, or a personalized engraved fountain pen that she'll be able to use in her future classes.

You can now do away with useless stuff and give your teacher only the best gifts that she'll definitely enjoy using. She'll not only smile with delight but also make her year a really memorable one.
