Hooray! I'm so excited to link up with Tara at 4th Grade Frolics for my first Monday Made It!
OK, you need to know that I am not a really crafty person. I JUST bought my first hot glue gun a few weeks ago... which I'm sure is a teacher sin! AND most of my stuff is still up at school and I haven't been by there. So I've been trying to make some things with what I have at the house!
I saw this adorable pin on Pinterest and had to repin it! I thought it would be super cute for a child's birthday! But since the hubby and I don't have kids yet, I decided to take the idea and spin it a little to work for my classroom.

Well, remember this sneak peek (from this post) about what I was making for Monday Made It?
Here's what I made!
It's a 2L sign for my classroom. My school names classes by their grade level and last name initial. I will be teaching 2nd grade next year and my last name is Lacy so my class will be 2L. I used a TON of pom-poms and a foam board from the dollar store. I hot glued all the pom-poms on the cut-outs.

I also posted about these seat covers in this post. They inspired me to make something like it to recognize my Star Student.

Here's what I made!
I will put this on the seat of our Star Student! I used more foam board from the dollar tree, cut out the star, spray painted it and glued a hair band on the back! I'm also planning on making an extra one with ribbon glued on the back to see which one I like better!
I also made this!
I found this classroom sign from The Hands-On Teacher. She even has a freebie to print off! I just used the saying and typed it up myself!
OK, one more thing!
The hubby and I got married last September and had a WONDERFUL photographer, but we didn't want to pay a boat-load for a wedding album. So I made one on Shutterfly! I waited to order it until there was a good deal - free shipping and 30% off! Have I expressed how much I LOVE Shutterfly! And no, they don't pay me to say that!!

Teaching In A Nutshell
Hey Cyndi- You visited our website not too long ago and had asked if we lived in Missouri. I laughed when I read your comment because right before reading it, I had just posted about my trip to St. Louis. Sorry about the comment about not being a Cardinals fan lol. I'm from KC, I have to love the Royals. I do love St. Louis though and said so in my post. :) Check out our website and see what you think about my pics of our hotel and the Arch.
ReplyDeleteThanks for following us! We're now following you, also. :)
