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.

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!

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!

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!
