Upcycled Back to School Supplies

It's almost time for school to start!!!! Yay!
Or maybe that's not something to get excited about? Boo.

Either way, you have to admit that it's fun getting all of your Back to School Supplies!
And even if buying new supplies isn't in the budget, you can "upcycle" a lot of your existing supplies into adorable and fun items that will help your first day back be awesome.
Who can't tackle calculus with a cute pencil? :)



So check out the ideas below for Upcycling your supplies!!!!
Happy Almost Back to School!


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am in LOVE with this adorable Fabric Covered Clipboard from Sarah Hearts!
Just find an old clipboard that's laying around and some fabric! Voila! 
You can also find many tutorials on Pinterest to do this with scrapbook paper!






Have some boring old pencils? Make your pencils POP! by adding a little washi tape!
Check out these Washi Tape Pencils from Passion for Savings.






If you're like me, I always seem to have binder dividers laying around but I lose those little white labels...you know what I'm talking about right? Well Amy from Washi Tape Crafts has saved the day with these cute Washi Tape Page Dividers...what can't you do with washi tape?!?!






The Crafty Blog Stalker has this awesome tutorial for Pom Pom Pens!
I think is awesome, especially if you have that FAVORITE pen that you hate losing.
A cute fabric pom pom on top would be the perfect way to keep track of it!






Do you need a pencil case? I love the cute fabric ones, but hello! Who can sew a zipper!! Not me.
And then I saw this AMAZING idea from Aunt Peaches using a Ziploc Bag & Duct Tape.
SHUT THE FRONT DOOR! This is just awesome!






An easy way to keep your place in that very-interesting biology book would be these fun Heart Shaped Paperclips. Make your own using the tutorial found at Novelty and Chevron because who doesn't have a few (hundred) paper clips hiding in their desk drawer!






You probably have a few binders for school - you can just reuse old ones by adding a cute new cover! Check out some of the Free Binder Templates from Happily Hope that you can edit to add your own titles and then print off for your binders. So many cute ones to choose from too!!
