Hi everyone! I'm super excited because I am linking up for my first ever Made It Monday! 


 I know that it is the last one of summer...but it's a big one for me, since it's my first! So...I'm hoping I can do this correctly...if not, be patient with me!  

Made It # 1

 Here it is! My completely finished DIY dry erase table and milk crate stools!  I couldn't wait to make these once I saw them floating around Pinterest!  I actually made the stools last year, but the table was just finished recently, so I waited to share it all together! :)  I took my boring old round table from blah.....to WOW!  I went to Lowes (at the beginning of the year I sent a letter asking for classroom donations and they sent me a $25 gift card, super cool, right?) and got two pieces of white board material and then begged my dad to cut them into the half circle pieces.  I don't do power tools....yet!  Then I used heavy duty velcro and hot glue (too lazy to sew) to make my little table skirt! I. am. in. love. :)  I had plastic on my stools last year, but they got ruined from little shoes, and I honestly don't know if I'm going to buy more for this year or not...I'm thinking about changing my Hollywood theme next year...(Maybbbbbeee) anyway..so I would need to recover and redo it all anyway! 

Made It # 2
I just LOVED Hope's  Library Letter Display over at 2nd Grade Shenanigans .and while I was obsessed with her AWESOME, BRIGHT colors...they just wouldn't have fit with my Hollywood Theme...so here's what mine turned out like...pretty happy with them! I wish I had more room to display them...but this works for now!  Thanks for the easy tutorial Hope!

Made It # 3

I love Corrina's products from over at Surfin' Through Second! I came across her math manipulative labels and needed some custom ones for my classroom.  She responded to my email almost immediately and had my labels so fast! :) So how cute are these little gifts for my team?  While I liked Corinna's bags better...these were all I could find.  I stole some of her ideas in the bags..and added some of my own...if anyone knows me I'm obsessed with nail polish, so I put bright nail polish in them all (I work on an all ladies team) and was so excited to find neon Hello My Name Is...name tags in the Target Dollar Spot!  I added some bright colored hand soap and monogrammed magnetic lists.  I hope my teams loves them...I can't wait to give them to them on our work day next Monday!

Okay..I think that's it! I hope everyone is enjoying their first days back or last days of summer!
