DIY Wooden Hand Sanitizer Holder and Vertical Number Line

This week I got to lead a DIY class with @michaelsstores, @sharpie and @elmersproducts! Whether you missed the community class, or you want to watch it again, you can check out the recording of it (link below)! The class was geared towards teachers and so much fun! Our dog, Skeeter, made an appearance and I even did some redecorating mid-class(you’ll see what I mean if you watch!).

In the class, I walk you through each step of how to create  TWO different Wooden projects for you to use in your own home or classroom! 

First, we will make a Giant Wooden Vertical Number Line using Sharpie Paint Pens (which have so many amazing color options) making it visible from your entire classroom(in-person or virtual) and will last for years!

Second, we will be making a Wooden Hand Sanitizer holder using Elmer’s Wood Glue (so it will hold up to wear and tear) and Sharpie Paint Pens tying in a “Spread Kindness” quote for the front!
