Now is the time that I am starting to get thinking about my classroom. I have seen so many cute themes and ideas out there- that I thought hey why not. New building, new classroom, why not try something new. I wanted to go all Alice in Wonderland but then I thought maybe a room that shows off my favorite books would be cool too. Then it comes in to color scheme?? Ah it is not so easy to pull a room together.
Here is what I am starting with... I found some cool things on Etsy for the Alice in Wonderland theme.
I got these for above the window
and this cool print
and then there was this jem I snagged up
and finally these to hang either above the library or some other cozy nook I ordered sapphire, dandelion, and scarlet.
So after all this I am guessing that my color scheme will be red, yellows, and blues. We'll see how it goes- the walls are a deeper blue and the bulletin boards are an orange color.
Another awesome score were these at Lowes- free and that is my favorite type of decor. Paint samples can be quite useful. I will use these as locker tags and also on their plastic storage units for their supplies. It's not a great picture I was just so excited to get them I snapped in a hurry. You'll see them in the future once I get them in their proper place.

As for the hugest undertaking I have purchased these library labels online. I don't really know why I did, I could have made them and after looking at them I will have to make more anyway- but I am so overwhelmed by the books that I accrued. No joke I went from probably 400 books to pry almost 2000. That is A LOT of books. It takes up a whole wall in my room- I will be taking a couple days to sort through them and see if I can do some arranging to create a more inviting reading area. I will be sure to post some pictures as I do.
