At the end of last year (for the last 100 days to be exact), I paid extra attention to the material "things" in my life that brought me happiness (all the while being very careful to get rid of anything that didn't directly bring me happiness) and documented those things for the #100HappyDays project.

Living in a Material World…
In this category I will share some of my favorite “things.” This category will focus on shopping, fashion, and beauty products as well as great ideas for gifts. It is true that money can’t buy happiness…but it certainly can buy things that make us pretty happy! I do think that it is really important that we don’t to get too carried away when it comes to material things, but there are just some things that we have to have and this is the perfect place to talk and write about them!

Reason #1: I decided to complete this challenge … Continue reading The first few “happy days” and the little things…

My new favorite thing is something that I don't actually have yet. I would like to get a digital voice recorder with a USB connection so that I can connect it to my computer (which I backup daily now, thank you) and transfer what I record to an audio file. How great would that … Continue reading I want a Digital Voice Recorder!
Magnetic Paper – Make Your Own Magnetic Poetry!
My most recent "new favorite thing" is magnetic paper! Maybe you already know about this, but I just found it yesterday, and I'm so happy I did! One of the stations I use in my language arts class is a Magnetic Poetry station. A few students at a time can use a variety of words … Continue reading Magnetic Paper – Make Your Own Magnetic Poetry!
Shopping and Raising Money for Charity…
It was pretty difficult to choose something to be the first “favorite thing” in this new category. So I decided to choose one of the most recent things I have come across (and loved) to share with you... Vera Bradley bags are great. I think they are just adorable, and with so many styles and … Continue reading Shopping and Raising Money for Charity…
New Category – “Living in a Material World”

The posts in this category will focus on shopping, fashion, and beauty products as well as other great ideas for … Continue reading New Category – “Living in a Material World”
