Back to School Organizers
Today I'm working on a repurposed back-to-school project for my classroom that can also be used in your home.
I've added Amazon affiliate links in bold so you can find the products I used for no additional cost to you!
Last year I did I did a project with these buckets... I changed the finish on them by experimenting with different antiquing solutions.
Today I'm painting the buckets a pretty, bright color for my classroom.
I gave each a coat of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint, followed up with a coat of Polycrylic... these buckets will get heavy use in my classroom.
This color is called Provence and it is reminiscent of the antique blue mason jars in the background.
In your home, these painted buckets would be beautiful for plants or as organizers, and of course the color possibilities are endless.
I added vinyl labels, you can create your own with a Silhouette Vinyl Cutting Machine.
Now these are perfect for my Pre Kindergarten classroom!
It's time to get ready for school again...
time sure flies when you're having fun!
Update! These buckets made it through the year with hardly a scratch on them!
The paint and the Polycrylic held up great!
I hope you enjoyed this project and you'll take a look at my Amazon Shop for craft supplies I recommend. Also while you're here please sign up for the Homeroad emails on my sidebar so I can send my latest DIY post straight to you.
