In addition, a few of my favorite blogging buddies have joined together to help me celebrate this special occasion.  Take a look these top-notch prizes you also could win...

Now for a *Monday Made-It* project...

My first attempt at making decorative R E A D letters for my classroom library was an epic fail.  :(


How did I not notice that?
Needless to say I had to make a second trip to the craft store, ha! 


Ahhh, much better.
I can't wait to hang this in my classroom.  Cute and colorful!  :) 

What have you been busy making?  Link up with Tara at 4th Grade Frolics and share your treasures!

  23. Your post just made me lol with the DEAD instead of READ. That sounds like me going to the craft store tagging two toddlers with me. My mind is in 100 places while trying to get supplies for one thing! Congrats on your followers! Great prizes, just entered! :)
