It's been a pinterest, crafty kind of day.  I started working on 5 gallon bucket seats for my classroom. (I am in love!)  I will post pictures of those later because the paint is starting to scratch off - even though I used plastic spray paint.  After, I put a sealer on them, I will post pics.  Did I say I am in love?  Cuz I totally am.  :)

I did get one project finished.  I made the supply drawers out of the tool box.  The problem I was having is that I want the drawers to sit on my desk and the back of them will be facing my classroom. There isn't a back to the drawers so you can see all the little clear drawers, and that just doesn't look nice and organized to me.  SOOO, I covered the back of the drawers with cardboard, scrapbook paper, and ribbon.  Added my name, some flowers, and a felt owl and VOILA!  I now have my own name plate - per se - on my desk! 

Note on the ribbon:  I put it all around like a border, but then I also went around the top and sides so you didn't have to see the cardboard when you looked down on it.

Note on the: The font for my name, "Mrs. Reeves" is courtesy of Kevin & Amanda Scrapbook fonts.

Seriously, it's summer and my brain WILL NOT turn off.  I can't sleep at night because all I do is think about what I would like to work on for my classroom.  Maybe I'll be able to sleep tonight after posting this and getting another thing marked off my "I really want to do that" list.

Last week, I posted my rewards catalog.  I created coupons to go with each of the items in my reward catalog.  I like the coupon idea because I don't have to keep track of who received which reward and whether they've used it or not.  (If they lose their coupon, it's so sad...They must keep up with coupon to claim their prize.)

There are 15 different coupons and 2 of them have a punch card because students can use them on 3 different occasions.

I have included a link to the coupons on Scribd.  Feel free to print them, and if you want something changed or added, let me know and I'll be happy to fix it for you!
