Monday Made It

So me and my hot glue gun, my new EK Success Circle Scissors Pro (love this thingy), and all of my other DIY supplies had a pretty nice weekend creating a few classroom necessities for the upcoming school year. I can't get in to my classroom until next week so unfortunately I am collecting a pretty hefty pile of "All Things School Related" in my living room corner!

Thanks again to 4th Grade Frolics for hosting the "Monday Made It" Linky Party...I always look forward to getting ideas for new projects for both home and school. (Who knew I would like being crafty...And it's so much cheaper than buying things ready-made things at all of the big school supply stores!
First, let me show you a few pics of this weekend's "weapons of mass PRODUCTION!"

The Monday Made-It Projects' must-haves:

1. Circle Cutter (link mentioned earlier in this post)
2. Cutting board (My little Apple is from Target)
3. Regular scissors from Dollar Tree
4. Glue Gun (I bought mine from Target but I just saw them at a 99 Cents Only store)
5. Popsicle sticks
6. Clothes pins
7. Thumb tacks
8. Picture frames
9. Lots of colored ink for the printer
   
   

Put it all together and vio' la! (How do you spell that?!?!)
So here are my Pinterest inspired Monday Made Its:

These little guys will hold my student work...The thumb tacks are so they can be pushed into the Bungalow walls in my classroom....This idea is inspired from a Monday Made it I saw on Emily's blog at I Love My Classroom...Check out her cool classroom reveal pics too!

These are student numbers that will be used for students to clip their number to a certain place in my room for when they need things like a Writing Conference...Not sure where yet because I haven't seen my new room yet :( The numbers are a duplicate of the same set I wrote about in my Last Monday Made it

And last but not least...Here are a few of the Positive Affirmation picture frames that will be  propped up and/or hung from various areas of the room this year! My goal is to make my room as positive, loving, and family oriented as I can. (Currently singing "Where is the Love" by John Mayor) The frames were from Dollar Tree and the signs came from a blog that I saw like 4 months ago, the posters were free from someone's TPT account I believe...Unfortunately this was before I began blogging and I knew I would only use them in the classroom so I didn't get the source...If anyone knows who's signs these are please let me know and I will cite them (Soooo sorry I don't have the source guys!!)

Well that's all I have for today! Thanks for reading.....Happy Monday everyone,
