Then we celebrated with my Sister and her Husband at their vow renewal ceremony, such a lovely day...
This is my brother's family, my sister's family, my mom, and my family - minus my son who had to work. It was fun to spend the day with all of them!
I did manage in all of my busyness to get a few things done for my new classroom in the midst of all the excitement, so I'm linking up with Tara for Monday Made it and here's what I've made this week!
Pennant Banner - it's really long but I didn't have a good way to hang it and get a good picture of it. Looking forward to hanging this up in my new room, I think it will add just the right amount of color without being overwhelming!
One of the things I'm most excited about with my new job is that I will be able to share my faith with my students. I was looking for scriptures or sayings to incorporate into my decor when I found these at Sweet Blessings - she's been my go to for educational signs in the classroom and now I'm super excited to be able to use her faith signs. I printed them on cards stock, 3x5 - four to a page.
I found these cutouts at Dollar Tree, perfect colors, but I wasn't sure how to use them. I was looking for frames for my signs when I remembered I had these.
I cut the signs down to fit in the middle of the frames, taped them on with double stick tape, then laminated them! I LOVE THEM!!
I also picked up these 4x6 frames from Dollar Tree and used them to hold three of the signs. I think I will be using these to decorate my classroom library area! Perfect!
Finally I made this Alphabet line to match my room too! It's free if you would like it, click on the picture to download. The file includes both the round and square signs so you can print which ever one you like.
If you download these your feedback would be greatly appreciated!
