You are here: Home / Other / Oh, Target. You had me at $1.00.

Oh, Target. You had me at $1.00.

July 10, 2012 by Sarah Plum(itallo) 19 Comments

Our local Target turned over their Dollar Spot today to the back-to-school teacher goodies, so I was able to pick up a few more lightbulb stress-relievers for my classroom, and my husband was able to get some globe stress-relievers for his kiddos. (We also got some wipe-off sleeves, but those aren’t as exciting… clearly.)

I decided that I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to create something surrounding the globe stress-relievers, so I added-on to the lightbulb packet I posted this morning to include a “world of possibilities” version for your kiddos. (Even if your local Target lacks either of these stress-relievers, you can find cheap globe stress-relievers online! Yay, Internet!)


So if you have already downloaded the packet, head back on over to my TPT store to re-download! (Or just click the picture below!)

    Great Idea! I hope they still have these on August 1. (I had to put myself on a spending freeze.
    )

    On second thought, I may just pop in to Target. But just for these…

    Hi Crystal, Did you you use a circle cutter or punch to cut out those perfect circles on the baskets? If so can you share the brand and where you got it? I have been looking at them at craft stores, but don't know which works best! Thanks!

      I used a circle cutter, but it seriously takes a TON of trial and error because you have to line it up just perfectly. I bought an EK Success Circle Cutter and Michael's using my teacher discount and a 50% off coupon, so it was inexpensive (about $10).

      Honestly… while I did cut these out with it, I did all my word wall circles by hand because I got so frustrated with it. I need to practice a bit more, clearly!
