DIY toolbox & linky!

Hey bloggers!

I completed another DIY project this week! I finally got around to making my teacher toolbox...and I LOVE it!

I purchased the toolbox at Menards. Then I just used scrapbook paper & packing tape! I printed my labels on clear labels so that it wouldn't block any of my cute paper! I ended up leaving a few blank...I'm sure once school starts and I put things in it, I'll think of other labels to make.

My husband decided that he wanted one too. He went with me to pick out his toolbox and then picked out the paper too. I don't think his will have any labels on it...they would distract from the cute drawers! He's a junior high social studies teacher :)

I'm also joining in on another linky party! I love linkies. This one is hosted by Grade Three is the Place for Me.

I'm working on a few items for back to school...can you believe it's already creeping up on us?! I go back in a month! Wow. I'm excited to get back into my room though. I got word from my principal a few days ago that the rooms are officially done being cleaned so I'm going to head in tomorrow to start putting things back in place! There's a link to my TpT & TNbook stores on the top right of my page if you want to check out my items! :)

Hope you're having a great weekend!!
