It’s officially back-to-school week for us! This time tomorrow my kids will be walking into their classrooms as 3rd and 1st graders. I’m not quite sure where summer went, but we are so excited for the brand new school year ahead! And because y’all know I love any excuse for a themed snack, I had to put together a back-to-school snack board to celebrate the big week ahead! So, I went to Publix to stock up on a variety of meats, cheeses, fruits, and crackers to create this fun & easy snack board. The first thing I picked up was Old Wisconsin Beef Snack Sticks…

DIY Target Gumball Jar Makeover
Target Gumball Jars are BACK, y’all! I may or may not have let out a little scream when I saw these cuties on the shelves last week 😉 I missed out on these last time they were released, so when I spotted them I immediately grabbed a couple to save for a few ideas I’ve had brewing since earlier this spring! And today the Target Gumball Jar is getting a back to school themed makeover! I knew I wanted to do a pencil theme, but wasn’t quite sure how I would incorporate the metal band. Then all of a sudden it clicked – a gray ribbon would do just the…
