School is Cool with Laurel!

Hi everyone!! Laurel has some AWESOME projects to share today using Nikki's School is Cool collection!

"Hi everyone, Laurel here.  I love the School is Cool collection and had a lot of fun creating these projects for you today as well as a couple others that I will be sharing on my blog next week.  I love the bright happy colors and patterns.

For my first project I have upcycled a dishwasher soap container.  I liked the flip lid it had and new that I would be able to use it in my classroom.  I decided it would hold my alphabet letters so I decorated the outside to go with the this.  I love being able to repurpose items that would otherwise be thrown out or recycyled.

For my second project, I did some more repurposing.  I picked up this small wooden box at a garage sale for 25 cents!  I base coated it with paint and then just covered it with some of the School is Cool collection and then wrapped it with some Twinery Twine.  This will be a good place to keep my dry erase markers don't you think?  For this project and the one above I have used my Beacon Adhesive, I love how quickly the Beacon adhesives dry and how well they adhere the items.

Finally, I always make my girls a little back to school gift and of course a card to go with it.  Here is a card I have made for one of my girls.  Just some simple layering and it is done.  The stamp is from There She Goes and the twine is from The Twinery." ~~Laurel
