Today I took my sister and we went to visit the Dollar Tree. I found a stack of these:
I got all the ones they had (a total of 15!). I'll have to troll other Dollar Trees to see if I can find 5 more in this color (or another color that compliments it), just to make sure I have a full set in case I get more students or if I change districts (hopefully not!). What are they going to be, you ask? Well, I am going to combine them with these ribbons that I picked up at AC Moore earlier this week
I picked out all the ribbon first, so how lucky was I that I found baskets to go with it! I'm working on a blue/green ocean theme for next year, so these will fit right in! You'll have to wait for a Monday Made It to find out what I'm going to do with them (not this Monday, but soon!).
It is wicked hot here today, so I dressed appropriately for 95 + heat!
Shrug and Shirt: Kohls
Shorts: Old Navy
Tank: Target
Flip-Flops: NY & Co.
I had my sister as a photographer, so these turned out better than me setting the timer and running in front of the camera!
Yes, I really am that white :) Between the Irish and Norweign in me (and the fact that I spend a lot of time indoors :), I light up in the dark. :)
Smiles and Sunshine,

I raided the 2 Dollar Trees near my school and picked up those same bins (26 altogether!) Can't wait to see what you do with them!

We LOVE any dollar store!! How is it that a teacher can always go into a dollar store and come out still spending a ton of money! Oh well, they have GREAT stuff! We are now following you and would love it if you check us out sometime!
