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!
