May 3 Tiered Tray and Cart

If you're new here...I LOVE home decor. I found this tray at hobby lobby around Christmas time. I decorate it every month or season depending. For example, I did Christmas (December), Winter (January), Valentine's Day (Feb- and also target has so many cute and cheap things to stick in the tray so it was easy), and then I skipped straight to carrots for March/April (and May...LOL). Hey, were in quarantine so I enjoyed that carrot decor as long as I could (click here to see it).

So anyways...when Hobby Lobby finally opened again I couldn't wait to do my tray and cart. However, I couldn't find anything I LOVED. I saw the ice cream cone plant picture (below) and wanted to work off of that. It ended up turning into a 'strawberry ice cream' theme. I'm not in love with it, but it's growing on me ;). I really wanted to do something with plants, but also spring/summer so I guess it works!

Now for what I put in the tray:
  • little square/circle magnets are hobby lobby, perfect fillers
  • the greenery is hobby lobby and I used it for my carrot tray (you can easily reuse greenery for different trays)
  • flowers- I plucked those off some random dollar store flowers I had in my office
  • pearls- again hobby lobby, but I actually bought these on clearance at Christmas time, I think they are for tree decorating
  • mug- rae dunn, I got it off facebook market place for my valentine's tray and it worked perfectly for my strawberry ice cream tray! (I always stick a mug in my tray for dimension)
  • strawberries- hobby lobby in the artificial fruit/fairy garden area




Here is my bar cart. I got this at Big Lots a couple of years ago. I LOVE it because I hate having a junk drawer. I store miscellaneous stuff in the box with the lid (because I hate clutter LOL). The middle two boxes are for important papers and office supplies. 

Now for the decor:
  • ice cream cone "enjoy the little things" picture- hobby lobby (main decor object)
  • pink vase JoAnn fabrics
  • pink mug (from my little student, Cam Cat), I always put a mug on here or two ;)
  • the other mug is rae dunn- TJ Maxx, I stuck a succulent in it that I got from Home Deopt
  • the big gather around sign is from hobby lobby
  • the little plant sign is from JoAnn Fabrics
  • picture frames always stay (my niece and her pup, my grandpas, and Sulley)

Kid's Door Decor

If you want to skip the reading and go right to the door decor pack click here! So I did something wild yesterday. I let my kids decorate the door... A few years ago I said I wanted to put up a new door every month. The kids love when the door is decorated to something new. I lasted maybe 2 months LOL. I try to decorate it at the beginning, but it is such a pain. It always falls down, I can't get it straight, etc etc etc. Well last week one of my co-worker's decorated her door. It was a spring door with flowers and my kids of course were in awe. "Let's decorate our door!" So yesterday morning during my morning coffee I randomly thought to make a packet of things they could decorate the door with. It is homeschool at school in our classroom so I thought, I'll give them the stuff and some examples and they can decorate it together. I told them in the morning about it so they were pumped when it was time. I printed out all the stuff ahead of time and cut it into ...

SUBTRACTION WINTER CRAFT

If you've been around for awhile you know that I LOVE craftivities. I think they are so much more fun than just the regular day to day lessons and even more than random stations. I typically tend to hate station games and cut out cards because they get lost and what not. #iykyk Over winter break I was trying to prep to come back and I knew I wanted to start doing a math craft every Friday. I am a creature of habit and routine, so I want to start doing Monday-Thursday stations and Friday craftivities. I saw a few subtraction craftivities on pinterest, but they weren't really sparking my interest. I wanted something different than something being eaten and it needed to be winter themed. So penguins on and off an iceberg just popped into my head.   I decided to first let my kids color the penguins. I also made them number the back because I knew they would be all over the ground and no one would know which are theirs. So we did that, but it took longer than expected so I collected...

Christmas Presents with My Husband

This will be my third Christmas with my husband and two years ago we decided on no Christmas gifts. Instead, we (I lol) decided that we should do an ornament exchange.  A few years back I took out my grandma's ornaments with her and saw all the sweet ornaments family had given her, but my favorite were the ones from my grandpa. She even wrote the date and where he got them from...so sweet.  So anyways, I thought it would be cool to start doing that and then we could look back and one day our kids and grandkids could also look back. Our first year I got Nick an animal crossing ornament that I drove all over Florida to find lol and he got me a locket ornament, which he didn't even know what a locket was and there was a random couple inside haha. Here is the little cutie! I have been wanting to do an ornament of just stuff we were into each year. I finally got to it! Here is 2021... and 2022... I put shows and food we were obsessed with and some pictures! I sell them on my Etsy s...
