I am linking up with my sweet friend Tara from 4th Grade Frolics for her Monday Made It!!
I am constantly losing my keys at school! I don't have one set place to put them, so they always wind up everywhere! On my desk, on the counter, in my purse, on the back table... you get the picture! All year I have been wanting to designate a specific spot to hang my keys, and now, with 2 1/2 days of school left, I finally have it!
There is a spot right next to my door that is the perfect place!
To create my key hook I used a white letter I bought from Michaels.
(I forgot to take a "before" picture, but just picture the M white and without glitter!)
Then I covered it with Modge Podge and sprinkled Martha Stewart glitter on top.
I used the pink on the bottom, 4th over from the right!
I love, love, LOVE glitter and this set is amazing! I love all the bright colors!
Check out Tara's blog to see all of the fabulous things that other bloggers created!

P.S I always lose my keys too :/ I can't count the number of times the custodians had to come unlock my door for me... opps.
I LOVE the key idea...Only I'd forget to hang them up. I had a student this year who ALWAYS knew where they were...I'm going to miss him next year!

Hi Molly
ReplyDeleteI always lose my keys, too. And my lesson plans. My kids learn that about me in a hurry. They're always telling me where stuff is. I'm a new follower, by the way. Come visit me sometime.
