My summer hasn't been super exciting (yet) but I have been able to get some shopping done…and as I was leaving my classroom the other day I looked around a some of my purchases and realized A.) I may have a problem B.)I appear to be slightly obsessed with shades of turquoise
Containers marked down at Michaels…on sale? I'm in!!
A plastic work station mat for rolling chairs at Office Depot
Baskets from Big Lots
Containers that were marked down at Target
New stapler from Office Depot
Crates and bins from Target and Hobby Lobby
Stools from Hobby Lobby, marked down to half price!

I've obviously been way more busy than I thought….I just wish those stools had some turquoise in them!! Dangnabit!
Anyway, this is what some friends and I are planning, so if you are in the southeast and are interested in attending, just let us know! Everyone welcome!
Love all your finds--especially the blue crates!!! Were those at target??? I need them!!! Excited about the meet up!!

I keep buying turquoise things too. I tell myself that the color soothes me so it's okay if I buy more things. Love all your goodies!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors. You might be able to fuse some turquoise onto those cube seats. Just a thought.
ReplyDeleteWhat shade did you use on your baskets? I love it!
ReplyDeleteLOVE all your shopping finds! All those bright colors are gorgeous.

Are those turquoise crates at Target?! I didn't see that color at my store. I have some teal ones from years past, but I am in LOVE with that turquoise color! :-) I have been to 3 Target stores in 2 days, but I can always go back. :-)

I LOVE all the turquoise! I always spend way too much in my classroom. I sometimes experience a moment of guilt when I think about all the peanut butter sandwiches my family will be eating for supper over the next few weeks because I spent too much... but then I remember how awesome my new super pack of Mr. Sketch markers are!!!
ReplyDeleteLove this! I also hoard baskets like it's my job! A new Dollar Tree just opened up near my home and I took a little visit tonight... And bought more baskets Haha! #ihaveaproblem Happy back to school shopping!

Your STOOLS are my favorite! Great finds for back to school!!
ReplyDeleteI love all the turquoise goodies you found. I'm recently obsessed with all shades of the color too, but it hasn't spilled over to my classroom yet, just in my wardrobe. The classroom may be next with your tips. Lol. I also wanted to say thanks again for stopping by my page and leaving a comment. TeacherMsH~ThirdIstheWord
