My Fabulous Finds!

I decided to link up with Fun in Room 4B for Fabulous Find Friday!  Pretty much every one of my amazing treasures were inspired by several recent blog posts (sorry there isn't really anything new).  I tried going to Target several different days to get the awesome clear communicator boards.  My trips were a disaster because all of the bins in the dollar isle were empty. I tried multiple locations on several different days.  :(



These are the treasures I was able to get my hands on:
Because I am moving to a new school district this coming year I finally get to use Scentsy warmers in my classroom.  I immediately ordered the full size Zebra warmer for myself.  I've also scoped out some pretty awesome scores from Dollar Tree, so I went to every store within 40 mile radius to get exactly what I wanted (I surely didn't NEED any of this).  The blue and green rectangular containers might be good for books or journal storage.  I also picked up 12 of the more square baskets with the circular cut outs.  I have no idea what I will use these for.  Also, I'm a little worried where all of these baskets will go in my tiny shoebox classroom.  Those multicolored little things in that package are magnetic clips for the whiteboard.  I am queen of clipping all sorts of things to my whiteboard.  When I saw the small dust pans and mini brushes I thought they would be perfect to attach to each table group using one of those command hooks.  These will come in handy this year because my new classroom does not have carpet.  I'm super sad about this and it also leads me to my final purchase....  This super cute rug from this website that only cost me $19.99.  And when I say $19.99 I mean $19.99 exactly!  NO SHIPPING AND NO TAX!  I know, I probably should have told you to sit down before I laid that one on you.  They have larger sizes.  This one is about 3'x5' and I'm just hoping I will have that much space in my classroom...







I have a trip to Ikea planned for sometime before school starts back.  I've had my eye on a few items that I'm looking forward to sharing within the next few weeks!  :)

  1. Thanks so much for linking up! I'm just now getting home from vacation and catching up on my thank-yous..so I'm sorry this is late.

    I have those same baskets (with the circles) and I have no idea what I'm doing with mine either...just had to have them because they were the right color.

    When you figure it out, let me know :)
