star student.. part two

a dear friend of mine was cleaning up her closet and she was going to throw away this colorful spacemaker pencil box! I thought it would be such a great idea to serve as "star student" pencil box!

i added my own sticker labels! seriously too easy! 

so inside the pencil box i decided to have the students use "special" twistable crayons since they are the "star student"

i made labels using the avery sticker labels

then peeled off the sticker and placed them on each of the twistable crayons!

so fun!! :)

dress up the clipboards

i had six clipboards that needed some love... i covered them up with cute scrapbook paper and dressed them up with a layer of modge podge. totally cute.

Happy 2012 fellow followers and readers! :)

Every year I try to do what is called "student of the week" and so this year I wanted the students to feel EXTRA special so I wanted to buy it on lakeshore, but realized it costs $12.95 for just one!!!

with coupons/teacher discounts from michael's!

I spent $2.00 for everything!
