Monday Made It

Today I am joining 4th Grade Frolics for Monday Made It. If you haven't checked out her blog, it is awesome. She has the best ideas for the classroom. She is doing this linky this summer. This is what I have been up to for the last week. If you know me, you know I love pinterest and has a long list of pins. Sadly, I am not great at making all of these cute things I pin but working on that. Since Father's Day was this past weekend, I printed this cute one, framed it, and surprised one daddy with it. I also found these cute chalkboards at the free table at school. Does anyone else have these tables that just happen at the end of year or the beginning of year as we all start cleaning out? I usually just all to the table but this year, I think I took as much as I left. :) I spray painted the frame and then covered it to spray the inside with chalk paint. The lines did not work for me, so I painted over them. I wrote the Porch Rules on it which was also an idea I found. I added it to my chest that I painted red for by back porch. I hope to have my back porchall finished and ready to share in a few days. Last, I found these bottles in the same free table at school and sprayed them yellow and set those on a little table on the back porch. I have tons of other ideas for my classroom, but I just haven't gotten to it yet. Most of what I want to do for my class needs to be done in the class. We can't get back into the building until July, so it will have to wait.

Made It Monday on Tuesday

So, I am a day late but I wanted to share a few of the things that I have made lately. The first one that I made is a couple of chalk boards. I sprayed the cardboard in the old frame and turned it into a chalkboard that I plan to hang in the kids bathroom. I also picked up three of those popular silver trays from the Dollar Tree and painted the inside with chalkboard paint too. They worked great at a resent gathering to label the places to put food, drinks, and desserts.

I also made a cute door sign for my classroom. After seeing so many on here each week, I knew that I wanted one too. I think it turned out pretty cute. The wing that my classroom is on has all primary colors in each room, so I have to keep with those colors to flow best.

I also fancied up Katie Lee's pencil box. Once again, I still cannot believe she is starting to school in a few weeks.

I have lots more things planned to get done in the next few weeks before I have to go back.
