Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry trees in our backyard…watching them bloom has been nothing short of magical. And the scent of the blossoms!! Absolutely divine!

Buying an older home vs building new can have its perks- one being an established yard (which I just fell in love with). We’ve got neighbors all around, however, the backyard feels pretty private thanks to landscaping done years ago by the previous owners!

Facebook Marketplace for the win! I’m so in love with my recent find…the curves are just so darling! I often see many great finds on Marketplace but because I don’t have a truck or trailer, I have to miss out on a lot. I knew this desk would fit in the back of my SUV so I jumped at the chance to grab it. What’s your favorite secondhand find?

There’s nothing more meaningful than a “Thank you”

There’s nothing more meaningful than a “Thank you” from a student. 💛

Now through May 8, students can send a FREE digital thank-you note to their favorite K–12 public school teacher at www.ThankaTeacherVA.com. Those notes will be delivered during Teacher Appreciation Week in May, and trust me, they truly make our day!

Teachers who receive notes could win fun prizes from the Virginia Lottery and its partners, including four statewide top prizes: $2,500 for the teacher and $2,500 in supplies for their school from The Supply Room! 🙌

Parents and teachers — head to ThankATeacherVA.com and help your child or students send a digital note today. It’s quick, easy, and can be done right from home.

This is another amazing way the Virginia Lottery supports public school education. Let’s show our teachers some love! 🍎✨

Kitchen Progress Update…lots has been done but also still lots to do! I’m not in a hurry with this renovation…working full time and having a kid who needs lots of attention really limits what can be accomplished (and budget)!! But, I’ve got lots of ideas and plans and will chip away at things slowly. My main goal was to get the flooring and counters done before moving in and the rest can happen…whenever! 🤣😊

I’m slowly but surely adding accessories to C’s room! The light fixture uses a rechargeable lightbulb, no hardwiring needed, which makes it super easy to install. The paint color on her walls is @sherwinwilliams Malted Milk (a pretty, muted shade of pink).

I found the wood artwork at a craft fair and as soon as I read what it said, I just knew it was perfect for her room- she has already proven she can do AMAZING things!! 💗🥰

The bed is a Facebook marketplace find and her bedding is from a variety of places (I’ve linked can I can on my @shop.ltk page so follow me there at CraftyTeacherLady
