Made it Monday and 2 Awesome Giveaways!

Hi peeps!  I am linking up with Tara at 4th Grade Frolics for my first ever Made it Monday.  

Here are some of my little creations:

This first creation is my birthday cupcakes, which originated from this pin.

 

Here are my bathroom passes, which came from this pin.

 

Here is my Guided Reading binder and my Substitute binder.

I have shared these two before, but thought I would throw them into the mix just for fun.

My Word Wall header from this pin, which came from Kindertrips awesome blog.

Here is my teacher toolbox.  I am not sure of the original pin because there are so many out there.

Okay, and last is the one I need some advice on.  I made my first burlap sign.  It's a little bee for my bumble bee classroom.  It originated from this pin.  

Now, I did not have any thick black ribbon, so I tied on the smaller ribbon, but I am thinking I should add a big bow.  What do you think?  I am also thinking of adding a little smile for the bee.  Do you think it will look better with a littler smile?  I would love any advice on this one.

I also wanted to share 2 fabulous giveaways:

Lori at Teaching with Love and Laughter is having am Easy Speak Microphone giveaway.  Click the pic below to enter on her blog.

 

Jennifer at Herding Cats in Kindergarten is having a gift card for Donors Choose giveaway.  If you don't know what Donors Choose is, it's a site where public school teachers can request materials and random people can donate to your project.  It's AMAZING!  I have had 16 projects funded in less than two years.  Here is my Donors Choose site.
