I heart spray paint

I went a bit crazy with the spray paint in my classroom. I painted my personal calculators lime green and my classroom set school bus yellow. I also painted up some hall passes because the hall pass that the school provides tends to wonder out of my classroom to never return.

Magnets For School

I made these magnets and magnetic frames for my filing cabinets at school. It will help me get through my days without my little man.

Scrapbook catch-up

A couple of weeks ago I went to Sam's Club and had 115 pictures printed that needed to be scrapbooked. What a job! I created a total of 23 pages. My camera is M.I.A., so when I get it back, I'll add some pictures.

****I didn't want to take the pages out of the scrapbook, so sorry for the poor images.

New look for an old shelf

Before

After

I found this shelf at a thrift store about 2.5 years ago. It was navy blue and it was missing a post. I finally got around to buying replacement posts. I glued the posts in place and then grabbed my black satin finish spray paint and went to work. I LOVE the way it turned out. It goes so well with my black furniture and black couch in my living room. It hangs right by the front door. It will be nice to have a place to hang keys and bag that I need when running out the door so I don't forget anything.

1st Birthday Invitations

This is the invitation that I made for my son's 1st birthday. I can't believe that he is growing up so fast. The insert has the details for the party. I like how they turned out. I had a hard time getting the button to stay on and I had to break out the glue gun to get it to stay. I'm happy to report that it didn't cost any extra to sent it through the mail even with the button.
