Monday Made It {July 29th}
I missed a Monday last week….sadness. ย Well, not a Monday…I wasn’t asleep, I missed a “Made It”…but you knew what I meant, right?
It really made me not so happy at all. ย I’m a happier person when I’m crafty. ย Truly, I am…one of my hashtags on Instagram is #craftnerd. ย No lie.
But, I’ve been working, and working, and working. ย I’m sure all of my friends (in real life and bloggy) are sick of hearing me say it. ย They won’t be hearing me anymore…because I’m finished!
That’s not my Made It for this week, though. I still have a few finishing touches including editing and advice from some of my favorite friends.
I bought a bunch of things to get crafty…
But, sadly, this is all I came up with this week:
I love, love, love it, though. So that counts, right?
I took the cute chevron tub from Walmart and used my Cricut to cut some pink vinyl to say “Room 4B”. ย {‘Cause that’s my room, FYI :)}
I’m going to be placing this tub outside my classroom door to hold books for my students to read in the morning before coming into class. ย Students are let into the building at 7:00, but not into our classrooms until 7:30. ย A teacher is on “pod duty” from 7:00-7:30 and students sit outside in the pod/hallway and read. ย Now, my basket matches my room. {Used to be a milk crate…boring.}
Next week, I’m hoping to show you a ton…I’ll actually be able to focus on something a little more hands-on this week! ย Yippee!
I have a winner for the giveaway, too:
Meghan, I’ve emailed you! ย Congrats!
Now, have you been crafty? Go link up with my bud, Tara!

I just found your blog. Love the idea of a basket!! I am addicted to my Cameo that I bought last year. I think I pretty much vinyl everything now!-SarahA Rocky Top Teacher
Your chevron book bin looks awesome! I love how the kids read books in the hall in the morning, that is such a great idea! ๐
I always love seeing what you make, whether digital or crafty!! I love this bin and your idea for it. I'm looking forward to seeing your other projects soon ๐
I am the LEAST crafty person I know, so I am always impressed with your creations!First, I love the book bin. I bought vinyl circles (already cut) to put on something because the Cameo looked too daunting. But after seeing your lettering, hmmmmmm, maybe I might consider opening the box.Second. how cool is it that your kids read while they wait?! Sometimes ours just practice martial arts skills in front of wide-eyed parents!Sending you lots of hugs and good wishes, my Sweet BlogFriend!Kim Finding JOY in 6th Grade
