Giveaway + Free Printables: “Spraying Good Cheer” with Method

Starbucks card? Candle? Bath salts? Travel mug? I tend to run through the same old items in my head for my children’s teacher gifts year after year. Sound familiar? This holiday season, however, I challenged myself (and now you!) to give something “extra-ordinary” with the help of our long-time partner method.

My eldest is in the New York City public school system. Kindergarten has been a big wake-up call for this easygoing preschool mom. No longer do I linger in the classroom at drop off and chat with the other parents and teachers while my youngest runs circles around his older brother and his classmates. It’s more like pack a lunch, get last week’s library book into the backpack and get him through the school’s front doors by 8:15 or it’s me reporting to the principal’s office! But the biggest shock came when I realized that basic items like hand sanitizer and certain cleaning supplies are not readily available in the classroom. These incredibly important items are often on the teacher’s wish list for the class-parent to rally or else it comes out of his or her own pocket. And with fifty germy little hands in one room, these products are an absolute necessity!

That’s when method came to the rescue. The people against dirty donated cases of all-purpose cleaning spray, hand soap and hand sanitizer to me so I could pass them along to my son’s classroom making for a thoughtful teacher’s gift.

And with that, I tapped my friend and PN Design Expert, party stylist Rebekah Dempsey to whip up some holiday tags this season so we could all “Spray Good Cheer” together.

So whether it’s for your child’s teacher, a house-warming or hostess gift, I challenge you, dear readers, to think about giving the ever so necessary, eco-friendly and chic “Gift of Clean” this holiday season from method. And dare I say, “Spray it Forward”?

WIN IT! Now you can give the gift of clean too! Three Project Nursery readers will win a $40 prize package each of Project Nursery’s holiday cleaning picks by method. Prize package includes hand soap, dish pump, all-purpose cleaner, 50 load laundry detergent and 24 count smarty dish in assorted scents.

    I’m constantly cleaning counterspace, with two little kids in the house, so I can’t imagine how much cleaner my daughter’s kindgergarten teacher must go through a year! I’d give kindergartener teacher Mrs. B a lifetime supply of All Purpose Cleaning and Disinfecting Wipes…..and then a coffee break while I go in and volunteer to do the classroom cleaning for her! :)

    I think I would love the Foaming Holiday Handwash and I would give it to my son.. I think he would enjoy the bright packaging and fragrance and it might encourage more handwashing!

    I think the new home kit would be a great gift for my friend who recently bought her first place. New homes look so clean but don’t stay that way for long, so a house cleaning kit is a great gift

  57. 57

    I’d gift the new home kit to my brother who owns his own place and is still settling in. He’s a single father so keeping the place clean is tough.

    I would give the mickey + minnie mouse hand wash to my daughters 2nd grade teacher because her baby loves minnie mouse and her teacher is amazing! I would also keep some at home because my daughter and my husband are allergic to something in some of the handsoaps I have bought in the past and they had used else where. I would also love to have some of the cleaning products.

  71. 71

    I would give the Foaming Hand Wash or the Gel Hand Wash to my sister-in-law. She is a nurse and constantly washes her hands.

  72. 72

    I love Method I have the kitchen, wood and bathroom cleaner. I loved to get a try on all their products though so I would probably gift it to myself :)

    Pinned here: http://pinterest.com/pin/87468417734546559. I would definitely give it to my mom’s classroom! She’s a TA for Special Needs high schoolers, and this gift would be perfect for all (students and teachers) in class including the in-class rest room. Once the first bell has started in the AM, she and the teacher don’t have a chance to leave the classroom, so winning this would certainly brighten and freshen up even their most challenging days. I witnessed the love they have for these kids when I was fortunate to visit the classroom last week. The kids were reading, “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” and after reading time I helped my mom with a student on her multiplication (we finished the 11s) before it was time to leave.

    I would give my sister-in-law the all purpose natural surface cleaner not only is she a full time nurse she’s a full time mommy with three boys ages 5, 2, and 8 months. I feel this product is a quick safe way for her to do cleaning in her very busy house.
