I am used to shopping for bargains for my classroom all summer long. Luckily, my school district gave us a good budget so I was able to get everything I wanted for kid supplies and pay for them out of school supplies. I just loved hunting for those black and white composition books and crayons and... I just retired in June so I won't be on the hunt. Hard habit to break in a way! I do think I'll get some new crayons, the big box for a project I'd like to start. I found some cute snowman fabric, just blue and white, mostly outlines. I thought I could color in some of the objects and make some little somethings out of it.
