100 Followers!, Pinterest, and Blogger Frustration

I finally made it to 100 followers on this ol' blog! Woo Hoo! Thank you to everyone who follows- I love reading comments and most likely I follow you too and get inspired by you every day!  Now, for my obsession with pinterest.  I have to be peeled from my computer every night because it is just so darn addicting.  When I first started looking I was amazed to see how many pics had been pulled from my blog, kind of cool, but also kind of strange! Here is my pinterest account if you're interested in following: http://pinterest.com/kmissavage/

Last but not least- I have been so frustrated with blogger lately because it won't let me comment back on people's comments.  I just seriously spent about a half hour typing comments back to art project girl and phyl about my room set-up and when I went to post it, it was deleted and told me I needed to sign in.  I lost my whole comment! So as soon as I figure that out, and when I have more patience I will get back to your comments!

Classroom Setup

I'm setting up my room this week and thought I'd share a few pics- these ones are from last year.  This year I walked into my room and the whole bulletin board above was taken down and replaced with cabinets!  I LOVE the extra storage space, but now I have to reconfigure my room set-up quite a bit- I have only one bulletin board left!  Anyways, hopes this helps someone who is struggling to come up with ideas for their art room!

Summer, it's been fun...come back soon!!!

School is right around the corner, and I'm trying to hang onto every last second of summer.  For some reason it went by faster than ever this year.  Man, do I live for summers. :) I had so much fun these last couple months spending time with my pooch, going on long walks, laying in the sun on the deck, and planting some new perennials in the garden.  The ones above are some of my faves. 

 I'll be back in my classroom setting up next week, and will be posting some new exciting art lessons as soon as we get going!  To all you teachers out there- good luck to you with the start of your year!!!!

Happy art-making...
