Friend gift


Teacher appreciation gifts

 Found these cute insulated cups at the dollar store. I filled them with Andes mints, mint gum, and lifesavers mints. With a washi covered tag that says, "Thanks for all of your encourage"mint"!

Also, these Lindor truffles bags (3 truffles for a $1). I got these for the bus drivers and helpers.

Little desk makeover


So, I found this desk on the side of the road! Loved how tiny it was and Lydia has been needing a desk. She LOVES to do art! I was drawn to these colors. Lydia is a very bright person, and her room is not painted, so it needs some color. I am disappointed that the teal does not look like it does in this picture. The picture looks turquoise, but it has more green in it. Closer to aqua. The drawer I covered with Washi Tape. I put a layer of spray adhesive on the drawer front (after removing the knob), covered it with washi, then sprayed a clear coat of spray paint on top. I had to glue (with Elmer's glue) the ends down, just because washi is not the stickiest, and I didn't want it to peal off.
