Hawaiian Beach Themed Classroom Decor

If you have been following any of my social media, now is the time for me to tell you all about the inspiration I got from my dream vacation to Hawaii this summer! I really wanted to take the Hawaiian feeling home with me, so I used a lot of my own vacation photos and water colored images to create a classroom decor pack so ALL teachers can have that calm tropical feeling in their room all year. We visited the Dole Pineapple Plantation, so you will see a lot of pineapples in the resource. I spent a lot of my relaxing days under a palm tree by the ocean in Maui. It was my favorite spot! Check it out! The bundle has color word posters, name tags, a words wall, a calendar set, an alphabet line, banners, labels, binder covers and more! You can even edit a lot of the product to make it personalized for your needs! I’m very happy with how it turned out!

Nashville TpT Conference

Okay, I know I told you all my next post would be about the Hawaiian Themed Classroom Decor Bundle, but I am so excited because I’m getting ready for this years Teachers Pay Teachers Conference in Nashville.  We are driving. (We=My Hubby and I)  He will keep busy with some friends we have there while I “work.”  Have I have told you how much I love TpT?  It has been the biggest blessing in my life.  So when I return, I promise to share more about the Bundle and the conference.  You can click HERE, if you want to peek at it.  Especially if you have going to have a beach themed room, you will love it!  It makes me want to jump back in the classroom. I’m not going to, but just a quick thought. 😉  Follow me on IG, or my FB page, if you want to see updates from the conference.  See YA’ ALL soon!

Hawaii Heaven Classroom Decor

I haven’t posted lately because I was on my dream vacation in Hawaii!  It was everything I imagined and more.  The pictures don’t do it justice at all.  Although Waikiki and Honolulu were a bit more commercialized than I expected, I found one island just amazing!  My favorite island was Maui.  If you love tropical vacations, like I do, it is an experience of a life time.  I live in Florida, so I’m use to the beach life.  The Road to Hana, hidden waterfalls, legends, Poke Bowls, caves, rain forest, volcano, spectacular snorkel spots,  and friendly locals made a magical trip for my family.  The trip hit the wallet a little harder than I expected even with all the research I did prior to the trip, but it was well worth it. Now, I have so many ideas for a new classroom decor!

Every corner I found inspiration for new #TpT products.  I took a lot of pictures  to create a tropical classroom decor pack that I can’t wait to see come to life.  So far I have made a Hawaiian themed Color Word Posters and a Word Wall Banner Set.  These will become part of a Hawaiian Theme Classroom Decor BUNDLE… COMING SOON.  Go check them out though, if you are thinking about a beach classroom theme for your classroom. One of our favorite hidden lunch places that we just happened to stumble upon is called The Garden Terrace at Kula Lodge!  Eat outside while enjoying the spectacular entire west side of Maui view.  They have an outdoor wood-burning pizza oven that my kids still talk about today!  Mama’s Fish House Restaurant was our favorite place on the island for catching a view of Maui’s amazing sunsets.  The food is absolute terrific!  You can find some of the sunset pictures in the new calendar pack I’m in the process of making that will be part of the set.  I rarely post pictures of my family on my blog, but here is one showing the beautiful sunset.

Check back in the future for blogs on the new Hawaii Themed Decor Sets that I will have up in my Teacher’s Brain store soon.  As they say in Hawaii… Mahalo!!!!

I realize some of you are not on summer vacation yet.  You may want to check out the blog post about End of the School Year Activities.
