DIY Pencil Case with a Ziploc and Duct Tape

Pin to Pinterest

Not too long ago we shared with you some DIY Back to School Crafts and Supplies for Kids. In our effort to keep our own school supply expenses down, we had fun with this DIY Pencil Case made with Ziploc Bags and Duct Tape. It is so easy, bright, fun, and also durable – no replacing this school supply mid-year, and if you must, it’s a cheap replacement!

Materials:

Directions:

Use your standard size Duct Tape to tape a row across the top of your Ziploc bag right under the blue plastic top.
Turn your bag over and wrap both sides over to cover both sides of the plastic bag.
Repeats steps 1 and 2 with your second row of tape.
Cut off the bottom part of the plastic bag.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 with your third row of tape.
Cut about 1/2″ of tape off the bottom of the bag, making sure to leave a little extra off the tape to stick together to hold the bag together.
Use your mini Duct Tape rolls to add a little color to the top and bottom edges creating a contrasting border.

Movie Night Teacher Appreciation Gift

Pin to Pinterest

We love our Teachers and want to gift them with something that shows how much we appreciate their time and dedication to our kiddos. Most teachers get mugs filled with candy and while that’s also a lovely gift, we wanted to make something with a little more ‘pop’! That’s where this Movie Night Idea came in. One of our favorite things to do as a family is rent a Redbox movie, pop some popcorn and relax together. We figured our teachers would love that too! So, we packaged up some popcorn, you could also add a bag of un-popped corn and tied it up with twine attached the FREE Printables and the gift was ready to go! So easy!

You can get your own Redbox Code Gift HERE.

What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD
