I love Mondays!!!

Who knew I'd be saying that during the summer!  But I'm loving these Monday Made It's with Tara at 4th Grade Frolics!  This week I wanted to continue with organization, but I was also able to finish some birthday items.  Here's what I was up to this week!

Organization:

I finished up my library bin labels.  {Read here} to see how I plan to use them:

I was also able to finish the Where are We poster (picture taken before lamination and addition of velcro):

And of course I had to cover something else in duct tape so I used some Crystal Light canisters to make ruler holders:

Birthdays:

I used a balloon template that can be found {here}.  I wrapped happy birthday ribbon around the container, then glued one of the balloons on top of that.  I don't think I realized how big the pixie sticks were (I'm probably going to have to put beans or rice in the container to weigh it down), but I know my kids will love getting this treat on their birthday! 

sorry for the glare

I found this idea on Pinterest and followed it back to Erica at Erica Bohrer's First Grade.  I created the monthly labels using Sports Fun clipart from ThistleGirl Designs.  Once school starts I'll take a picture of the kids holding numbers to show their birthdate.  I've been horrible in the past with birthdays, but I know this visual will help.

Looking at everyone's projects these last few weeks, I've been so inspired.  Come link up and share what you've made!
