Back to School Decor, Ideas, and a Freebie!

I am itching to get back into my classroom this year. I'm moving rooms and moving grades, so it's time for a face lift! I don't really do "themes" so much as color schemes. Two things have inspired my decor this year. 

This tape...


{I love those deep teal, green, and brown colors!}

And Reagan Tunstall's amazingly beautiful, crisp, and clean classroom!


You can check out her full room HERE!

I'm thinking to simplify and just stick to a few colors. 

I also saw this adorable idea for making over my plastic drawers! You can see the original post about them HERE!


I'll also be giving my crate seats a little makeover! 

Every aspect of my room will be made over. My neon book bins are out and clear plastic sterilite bins are in! 

Here are some other great things I snagged at Target and I'm in love!


Looking for new book bin labels? You can purchase your own set of these from the Brown Bag Teacher HERE!



I scoured TPT and Pinterest for just the right classroom decor set to match my vision and I just couldn't find one. So...I had to make my own! I'm pretty excited about it!





You can grab your own decor set by clicking my TPT button below!


For a little freebie from this set, click the picture below to download!


I also have another decor set in the works if you are looking for something a little lighter and brigther!


And as usual, you can win a set of my new classroom decor if you can guess how many boxes of crayons I bought at Target today! haha Please comment below with your guess and your e-mail! =)
