Monday Made-it {School Organization} – Early Childhood with Jessica Travis

It’s Monday!!

You know what that means…. I’m back and linking up with 4th Grade Frolics for Monday Made-it!!

I hope it’s okay that I whipped up this little graphic 🙂

Since I am moving classrooms this year I wanted something fresh! I think I have decided to go with turquoise as the main color scheme throughout the room!

{of course with a little leopard print mixed in and some bright colors that match with turquoise}

I have been on Pinterest a little more than lately searching for ideas and inspiration and I found the most adorable idea using coffee cans!

Now I am not a coffee drinker. At all. I could smell it all.day.long and be just as happy!

So…. I called my dad…. who drinks enough coffee for the whole family and it just so happened that he saves ALL of his coffee tubs! {Lucky me!}

I went back to Wal Mart and grabbed a few more cans of paint (to match my Anchor Chart storage buckets from last week!) and some more chalkboard labels!

This is where I began:

I headed back to the front porch with some paper {although I may or may not have got a little turquoise on the porch this time}

I put all of the cans upside down {with the lids off} and went to painting!

I did the lids in black to offset the light color!

After they completed drying, I put a few together and added my labels!

I have not labeled all of the buckets yet because I want to get into my classroom and see just exactly what I need!

So far, I have glue sticks, pencils, and crayons!

Here is just a close up the chalkboard label – they are so simple to use {just write, peel, and stick!}

You do not have to use coffee tubs {I know it can take a while to collect a few!} so you can always use the Tupperware bowls or containers that you can also find a Wal Mart!

Are you busying creating and making something this summer?! {School or Personal}

Be sure to head on over to 4th Grade Frolics and link up to share with us!!

Also…. don’t forget….

Tomorrow is….

DOLLAR * DEAL * TUESDAY!!!!!!

(and there may be a *few* products included!!)

Have a great week!!!
