I have a gummy bear binder that keeps my calendar and theme guides in,

Dollar Tree Finds

 Dollar Tree finds from November.  (I am so behind on sharing my shopping finds) 


Pink Floyd The Wall socks :)
Cookie kits 
Sanitizers 
Fridge pen holder with a drawer on the bottom.
2 bottles are balsamic glaze

I use the glaze for chippy boys.
I put gorgonzola cheese on kettle chips and 
pop them in my air fryer.
Most people put them in the oven.
Cook the chips and when done,
drizzle on the glaze.
Some people do a 
Roll-a-Chippy-Boy
They choose different chips and different cheeses 
along with different toppings.

Shop With Me: Dollar Tree

 When they were all stacked, I thought that I had two green ones.

Turns out there are yellow, orange, green, and pink trays!

We are going to use them to sort on the light table.


Ocean mini erasers


#watertok iykyk lol
I haven't tried this yet, I will report back :)


I love love love tie-dye!
They look way prettier than they will last.
Check back for the toy test of the pens :)


On my to-do list (which I did even print out!)
I am personalizing this cylinder  for beads for all of the 
students that I have had at my current school.
I am still deciding how to decorate it.

Next up is this transparent box. 
I plan to paint it to look like a piece of paper.


The nail file on the left is sort of like glass, 
the one on the right is a typical nail file.


Socks for personal use :)





The purple clip is just for me.
The dad frame was a gift.
The two-tone box was a fishing box, which was also a Father's Day gift.
I printed off a ton of photos of my son's grandfather 
wrote on the inside of the lid, 
Jim, the man, the myth, the legend ;)
