The Thrifty Teacher

The school that I work at is having a Dr. Seuss Themed Literacy night. Since I am working a station with another teacher and already had this costume, I decided I would make my partner one as well. It is super easy and cheap!!! Hope you enjoy :) Materials you will need: White Foam Sheet (Michael's) Red Koozie (Michael's) Headband White paper Hot glue gun Step 1: Find a cup that is bigger than the koozie and trace it on the foam sheet. Step 2: Cut the circle out. Step 3: Cut out two strips of paper that are a little less than an inch wide. Step 4: Hot glue both strips of paper around the koozie. I did trim the length of the strips just a little and just glued the ends down. I did not put glue all over the back, because you would see the glue through the paper. Step 5: Hot glue the koozie to the circle piece of white foam. Make sure to put it in the center before glueing it down. Step 6: Hot glue the hat to th

Where do I even begin? I have been curling my hair like this for quite some time and I'm finally going to let you in on my secrets :)   First things first, the products and styling tools I use! Hair Spray: Herbal Essences - Hold Me Softly Hairspray Fixatif You can find this at any major store, for less than $4 and lasts a long time.

I hate the wands that have the barrel that goes from big to small. I have tried several different ones and my hair never seems to stay and I feel like

So Target is probably one of my favorite places to shop at. I am always shopping online and stopping in there on a weekly basis to see if they have gotten anything new or have any good sales going on. Last week online they were having a sale on their clothes and shoes. If you spent over $75, you got 20% off your entire order. Well a lot of the items I wanted were already on sale or were pretty low. So I stocked up on some flannels and shirts. I also got some sandals, I am so over the cold and am ready for some warm weather.  FYI: Target's shirts are so soft and comfortable, and are true to size. Whenever they have a sale on them I am always stocking up, you can never have enough basics.  Hope you enjoy :) White Patterned  V-Neck Originally: $9.00 Discounted: $7.20 Close up of the pink dots, they're cute elephants!
