Crafty Classroom Hat

One of the things that helped me decide to do this is looking at all the wonderful blogs out there with wonderful ideas for things to do in the classroom to personalize the space and save money.

Pinterest has been a huge resource for finding those blogs and ideas.

One of those inspirations is:

I have found all kinds of ideas over there.  And so far this one is one of my favorites. Classroom DIY: DIY Pencil Pouches: Pencil pouches don't always hold up well throughout the year in student binders, but here is an option that is inexpensive if you need to replace them often.

Well I spent this week making my own version.  It is time consuming, but something you can do while watching TV with the kids.  I tried to get my daughter involved, but she wouldn't even finish one.  SO here is my version of the DIY pencil pouch.

I made 34 of them!  I might need to make 34 more depending on how I end up using them.  

I hope you enjoy!
