Monday Meet Up:


Office Makeover:
So one of my sweet teacher friends got promoted to Assistant Principal! Yay, but even better… She was promoted at our school! We get to keep her… So as a congrats gift I re-arranged & started to set up her new office to fit her sweet personality…
I started by making a trip to our local Salvation Army to grab some frames & a mirror… My bill $10!
Next I cleaned everything & grabbed some bright color spray paint…
I took out all the glass… My reasoning is b/c we can’t put wholes in the wall so we have to hang everything with command hooks. If they happen to fall off the wall, I don’t need broken glass in a school. I used a few signs from a great purchase I made a few months ago. The art work is from Hope King, called Desire to Inspire. Click {here} to see the fabulous subway art! I printed them on card-stock & laminated them.
Viola! {Yes, my dining room is my work station…}
Mirror…
Yard stick from Lowe’s ($.99) & some clothespins…
I also made a wreath to match…
And here are some pics of her office {we are not done}…
What a sweet gift to make all of that for your friend's new office. It looks great so far. Carrie Bradshaw was a great choice…I'd love to meet her in person too.
The Traveling Teacher
Thank you so much, I love her & I wanted to give her one less thing to worry about & a fresh feel. It would be fun to meet Carrie Bradshaw wouldn't it, right! My hubs rolls his eyes at me:-) Ha ha!
Your frames are adorable. I need to look for some frames!
Miss King's Enchanted Kingdom
Thanks!
How very sweet that you helped decorate the office for your friend! Everything turned out really cute. I'm in awe that you got a yard stick at Lowe's for $0.99. I tried to buy one at Beverly's Fabric and it was $6.97. I said no way to that and went to Walmart where it was $3.97. I like your deal much better!

OMG really?!?! It was in the paint section on a floor bucket! LOVE getting them there:-) Sorry, hopefully you'll get a better deal soon!
I adore "Falling in Love with Close Reading". I attended the authors' close reading session at the International Reading Association conference in spring 2012. I fell in love and knew I would have to buy this book when they published it. It is phenomenal! I also love the look of your friend's new office. You did a great job!
