Repurposing To Make A New Pen Holder!

AFTER!

This is one of my favorite repurposing posts.....We had hit a garage sale & found a cup? bowl? mug? Well, we'll just say something red & also later in the day, a little turtle at an estate sale. They were so dirty, but the darlin' teen said, "Mom, it can be a pencil holder for your new classroom." So we got them both for a quarter. It always helps to say, "This is for my classroom, how much do you want for it?" {grin, grin, grin!} I wish I had taken the before picture with all the garden dirt! So the teen and I took a few quick pictures & the two nasty garden items became a new pen/pencil cup for school! My students love it, when they want to borrow a pen I say, "Go see Mr. Turtle." 

Cute, cute, cute!

BEFORE! {But I wish I had taken the picture with the items still dirty!}
