7 places to get Cute & Unique Blank shirts and sets (for vinyl & embriodery)

If you’re like me, one of the big appeals of being a Silhouette owner is being able to make cute, custom shirts. True to my Southern roots, I love it even more when those shirts are extra cute with ruffles or some other Southern signature. In the beginning , I had the hardest time finding anything like this.

Don’t get me wrong. I’ve made many an order at Jiffy Shirts, but I preferred to find shirts from other suppliers to fit our style. I’ve found Hobby Lobby carries a small selection of custom style tees, but I wanted a bigger variety.

I’ve created a bunch of templates too for some of the crafts that’ll make your life a lot easier! Hang tight! It may take some time to get through all the letters, but it’s coming soon!! If you’re seeing this message, this post has already been updated!***

The letter o is one of my favorite letters to teach. Wanna know why?

Other than the letter l it is one of the first letters kids pick up on and, it’s super easy for them to write. Not to mention the sound is kind of fun to say.

We used to tell student that the /o/ sound was very similar to the sound you make before you sneeze. I had one kindergartener who confused that early on and made a fake sneeze every time he sounded out words with the letter o. It was pretty darn cute but I learned to stick with the flashcards and keep the cutesy stuff to a minimum, lest I confuse the kiddos.

But don’t worry. You’ll get your fill of cutesy stuff with this week’s crafts and activities!

Peppa Pig Birthday Party

3 Replies

My niece is a big fan of Peppa Pig and recently turned 3. So deciding her bday party theme was easy! While we couldn’t have a muddy puddles in true Peppa Pig fashion, we did have access to a pool. So a Peppa Pig pool party was born!

I am all about the party planning, so helping my sister throw my sweet niece’s party, was non-negotiable for her. She’d be fine with balloons and cake, but when you’re my sister, you don’t get off that easy.

But…you also get a free party planner who makes tons of decorations for you! So being my sister is not without it’s perks!

Free Letter M Lesson Plan- Letter of the Week

Leave a reply

One of the cutest kindergarteners I ever taught created his own cute trick for remembering the letter M. She always said, “Mmmmmmmm, M&Ms, my favorite!” He had the cutest little voice and dimples for days!

I’m of the age that I remember my teacher telling us to remember “Mmmmm, like Campbells soup.” I highly doubt today’s kids would know what that meant, some M & Ms is probably a safe bet.

However, they remember it, today I’m sharing with you a week of super cute letter M crafts and activities. And…letter M is the 13^th letter! We are officially halfway through the alphabet which makes us halfway through the series!
