Back to School!

It's back to school time! For me this is as literal as it gets. I've moved on from my online classroom and back to a traditional classroom. This means I have A LOT to do to get my new classroom ready.

A month ago, I walked into a bare classroom and wondered what I should do to fill it and make it mine. I thought about themes I've had in the past and those just didn't feel right. So of course I got on Pinterest and started cruising around online. I was inspired more by classrooms that had a color scheme than those that had a different type of theme.

So I chose my colors: orange, blue, and green. I love this color pallet because it is happy and bright. I found some fun, cute patterned paper and got to work! I started by creating circles because I knew I needed polka dots around the room. Then I got ambitious and used my circles to make paper garland to hang in the windows in my classroom. I'm super happy with the way that both turned out.



My classroom isn't all the way completed, but it's definitely better than how it started. I'll continue adding to my decor, but the basics of my classroom are done and can be found at Teachers Pay Teachers.
