Happy Sunday everyone!  I'm excited to bring you another collection of Back to School items from Team Upcyclers.  Our Etsy shops that are active and participating on the team are available for Sunday selections.

Back to School


You can add some awesome school buttons to your clothing, lunch boxes or backpacks this school year!


How about a chalkboard apple for your favorite teacher?


Make sure you have a good (upcycled) placed to keep lunch money!

T.G.I.Free~ Printables!

This week I went foraging for freebies for you to print! I know you love them, not just because they're free, but because they are a fantastic way to create your own cards, tags, banners, bunting and more. You can also find some terrific activities and resources for the little ones, which is what this first one is all about:

Activity Village has been "providing parents and teachers with free kids' activities since 2000, and you can sign up for a free newsletter to stay posted with their latest. Father's Day is coming up and they have some adorable free cards you can print up!

The Tip Junkie has tons of free printables, as well as "15,000+ tutorials" for crafts and DIY decor, parties, holidays, food and more! I love this free printable for the laundry room~ it suits me to a tee!



Another blogger offers a Freebie of the Month Club! You can get them from The Handmade Home each month~ here's the latest one for May and yes it was a printable!


I'm a huge fan of HGTV and I love their website full of ideas and FREEBIES! Right now you can get their Favorite Printable Party Invitations for Year Round Celebrations~
