Last week, I was saddened by a new Monday. Today, I'm pretty thrilled because I'm on vacation. Kinda. Both of my kids are away and my husband and I are "empty nesters" until Wednesday. I'm hoping that I will use my time alone productively. *Fingers crossed that I can share more craftiness next week.
Today, I have only one little craft to share. But it is one that I had on my "to do" list all year long.
I use warm fuzzies as a reward system in my classroom. You can read more about how I use them {here}. I had that cute clear bucket all year and it wasn't all decked out until now! Just a little hint about adhering that label to the plastic bucket: Spray Adhesive!
I love that stuff. I use it like crazy! I use it in a lot of places that you would normally use a glue gun. For example: book baskets, cubby labels, etc.
Back to the warm fuzzies....Do you use warm fuzzies, or would you like to give it a try? You can download my label by clicking on the image below :)
Have you linked up with my crafty friend, Tara? She has cranked out a ton of fantastic stuff this summer. I hope that I can catch up :) Head on over and link up!

Thanks for the Warm Fuzzies sign! Your container is adorable. I never thought of using spray adhesive for my book baskets - just had one of those "why didn't I think of that" moments!
ReplyDeleteLove it. Simple and cute! I've got a can of spray glue leftover from a science fair project - you've inspired me to try it before I bust out the hot glue!

I love it!!!!! I use the same positive reward system, but I call my little fuzzies: "Fuzzy Peaches". I was wondering if you could let me know where you got the adorable fuzzy people clipart so I could make one that says fuzzy peaches. It has actually been on my to-do list for a while. Or if it wouldn't too much trouble, could you type Fuzzy Peaches onto your freebie for me? Let me know!
ReplyDeleteThank You Thank You!
