It’s My Bloggy Birthday!

January 20, 2013

Happy Birthday, Ms. Fultz’s Corner! I’ve been at this blogging thing for a year now. In that year, I’ve written just over 200 posts, earned 380,000+ page views, and made 1,000 new teacher friends. How about that?? I think that deserves a celebration! I started by giving myself a brand new blog design last week, so if you‘re in your reader be sure to come on over to see the finished result.


Since this post started all about numbers, let’s keep it going shall we? Here’s what you can win:

  • 3 lucky winners will get to pick three items of their choice from my TeachersPayTeachers store. 

  • 2 lucky winners will get a $25 Target gift card. {Please tell me I’m not the only one thinking of all the dollar spot finds that would buy.}

  • 1 lucky winner will get a $50 Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to use in any store. That one will certainly help save you some planning time! =)

After I draw winners, I’ll post them here on my blog and you’ll have one week to claim your gift card using your entry email address. You won’t be notified by email, so be sure you’re following my blog in your reader or by email. I’m hoping this cuts down on the number of spam entries from non-followers. I want my loyal teacher friends to win!


a Rafflecopter giveaway

I’m also pulling my Design by Christi projects into my bloggy birthday by offering $5 off all of my premade Blogger templates. The premades are already discounted from a custom design, so taking $5 off the listed price makes them an even better deal!

Finally, giveaways are fun but only a few can win so here’s a freebie for all of my fabulous followers. I pulled the butterfly page from my addition/subtraction and multiplication coloring sheets for you. I love these pages for quick-prep centers or seat work for fast finishers too. I hope you can use one of them in your class. You can click the picture to download them until my giveaway is over, so grab them while you can!

Grab the butterfly freebie page!

Thanks for an amazing first year!

We primarily use his closet for off-season storage and toys, but it was always a MESS! Then the mess spilled out onto his nightstand, desk, dresser, building table, and under his bed. He needed a system! 

I used the online design tool from @containerstorecustomspaces to create this DIY Classic Elfa system. It took about three hours to install and set up. I love how flexible the system is, which means we can reconfigure the layout as he grows. I’m also really proud of his label choices... maybe he inherited some of my organizational skills after all!

As a momma, it’s easy to do all the things for your family. This is one thing I do for me! And since I work from home, it makes my space just a little happier every day. I was initially intimidated by the thought of arranging my own bouquets, but they provide tips and pictures to help. The best part? They arrive mostly in bud form and bloom in your home so you can enjoy each arrangement longer. ✨ Mine usually last 10-14 days. Link in bio to learn more.
