A Jersey with a Message

Weeks ago on Facebook, I put out an all-call for short quotes to include on the team jersey.  There were so many great submissions like this one from life coach, Sue....

I also like this one from blog reader & college student, CR, "Believe you can and you're halfway there..." (Teddy Roosevelt).  Sadly, that quote is too long for the collar space.  Thus, I went with a quote from my aunt who is also an educator as it fits the space and speaks to the spirit of Upcycled Education....

I can't give it all away, but there are three other quotes included in the jersey design.  The only way to see them is to order a jersey & show your support for the team.  Ha!  

I love a good treasure hunt.

xoxo,

Jen

PS - Thanks for all the great quotes submitted.  I so appreciated your help.

UPDATE: JERSEY SHOP CLOSED TO PLACE THE FIRST ORDER.  

TO ADD YOUR NAME TO THE WAITING LIST, EMAIL JEN AT:

Love. This. Quote.

Sailboat photo found at Photo Pin.  Sadly, I closed the window before
I could see who the photographer was and give he/she credit.

I saw this quote on a Sweet Green window in D.C. and it chose me.

Sometimes quotes do that.  Don't you agree?

My very best,

Jen

Quotables - The Perfect Gift for an Educator

The Other Jen has come out with a product that I need badly.  Really neat cards with an inspiring quote on one side and a short bio of the quote author on the other side.  Of course, the brilliant Other Jen has many keen ideas how to use these quotable cards on her website.

My mind is spinning with all the ways I want to use them with my students, colleagues, in training sessions, at conferences, in workshops, etc.  I want a pack like yesterday.

Oh, I just thought of something - these cards would make a LOVELY gift for a classroom teacher for the holidays.  At just $15.95 + shipping what a great gift for an educator.  This introductory price, by the way, ends today!  So order, now.

Go to the Other Jen's website for more.  And no, this isn't a paid advertisement.  I am just admiring another, dare I say, amazing Jen.

Yes, I am full of myself today.

xoxo,

The "Other" Jen

UPDATE:  My department ordered a set for me!  The only catch is I have to share with my colleagues.   No problem.  I'm a great sharer ;)

Pretty and Inspiring

I found these super pretty note cards at Target the other day.  Here's the front of them.  I think they are pretty and inspiring.

The double-whammy.

PS - My mom and I each collect inspiring quotes.  I'm thinking about laying them out (like a faux graphic designer) and starting a quotable series that can easily be printed.  Do you have an inspiring quote you want to share below in the comments section?  Maybe I can use your favorite quotes in the series.
