Hello Everyone!

It’s a Grand Opening!

I haven’t quite kept up with my one post a month goal, but I’m close!  HAHA  I’ve been quite busy with work….and life.  It’s all good though.  How were your holidays?  How is the start to the new year going?  I have no complaints.  Just so much to do on all fronts.  I think most people are like that right now.  How about the price of eggs?  HA!  I do hope that you’re all doing well.

So one of the things that I’ve been working on is expanding into the other marketplaces.  I had started on it previously, but I’ve fully gotten into it.  I want you all to be able to find me on multiple places.  I know that some enjoy shopping in certain marketplaces and some enjoy others.  I still don’t have everything in the other marketplaces, but I’m making some good progress.  Along with me expanding, many other sellers are as well.  We decided to get together and do a Grand Opening Sale.  I’m really excited about this!

There’s so many special days coming up that you can hopefully find resources for.  Ash Wednesday is 22 February, which also makes it the first day of Lent.  Easter will be 9 April with Holy Week leading up to that.  There’s also Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Spring, and other important dates coming up.  I have materials for all these in my shops!

Teal grand opening sale with banner flags and 20% off text with logo

One of the places that I’ve expanded is to reopen my shop on Etsy.  I have very few resources listed there yet.  I’m just getting my feet wet again.  I’m really out of the loop there and trying to see what will or won’t do well.  I’m also working on getting more materials on Made by Teachers and Classful.  I’ve gone into other marketplaces, some are, but some aren’t part of this sale.  I’ll tell you about those another time.  Anyway, back to the Grand Opening Sale!

Let me give you the details.  The Grand Opening Sale will be 12-14 February.  Everything at The Treasured Schoolhouse will be 20% off.  Here’s where you can shop….

Made by Teachers:  20% off (with an extra 5% off 12-13 February from them)

Classful:  20% off with coupon code GRAND20 applied at checkout

Etsy:  20% off

Teacher Professional Development (TPD):  20% off with coupon code GRAND20

TES:  20% off

As you can see if you got to any of my storefronts, they each have a different number of materials in them.  I’m working on getting a little bit of everything up so that there’s a variety.  My true goal is to get everything on all of them!  HA!  As always, if you need anything, please don’t hesitate to ask.  I can get something uploaded to the marketplace of your choice, or if you have a request, I can see if I can create it for you in a timely manner.

Happy Shopping!

It’s Cyber Monday!

Cyber Monday Sale neon thumbnail

Hello all and Happy Holidays!

I hope that you had a very Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving.  Are you all gearing up for Christmas now?  Do you have your tree up yet?  This year, we’ve opted not to do a Christmas tree.  Our daughter is a wise one and said that it’s been stressful the past couple years and we should just find something simpler to do.  She’s an adult that loves Christmas as much as I do, but her words made sense.  We have a lighted ceramic tree (white) sitting on a little table that normally has to be put up at Christmas.  I put a tree skirt over the table and placed the tree in the center of it.  It’s actually really nice and comforting.  I still have my nativities everywhere!  I have so many different kinds and they’re all special to me.

Are you getting ready to keep the kids busy over Christmas break?  Or, are you looking for some ideas to do in class or at home until break starts?  Maybe you need something to have ready for the new year.  I have the perfect solution!  It’s time for Cyber Monday and all my shops are on sale for 20% off!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can visit The Treasured Schoolhouse at….

Made by Teachers – Extra 5% off at checkout with no code needed

Classful – 20% off at checkout

TeachersPayTeachers – Extra 5% off with code CYBER22

I hope that you can find some materials that you need and can use.  Remember, if I don’t have what you need, I do accept requests.  I’m happy to help in any way that I can.  Happy Shopping!

Have a Very Merry and Blessed Christmas!

Apostles and Saints

Hello all my wonderful readers!

I know, it’s been more than a month.  I have nothing to say other than, I’M SORRY!  I was doing alright and then life just happened.  I do apologize and I’m hoping that I can get back to posting at least once a month.  

All Saints Day Poster Or Banner Vector Design

I’m here to share a FREEbie with you that can be used for apostles or saints.  With All Saints’ Day and All Souls Day coming up at the beginning of November, this is perfect for that as well.  It’s a set of coloring pages for the apostles in a stained glass format with a pretty cross frame.  The name of each one is in a banner below the saint.

It’s Time for a Bonus!

It’s time to return to the classroom, homeschool, Sunday School….or whatever and wherever you teach.  Summer went much too fast for me.  I think I blinked and it was gone.

All of The Treasured Schoolhouse shops are on sale.  I’m on several marketplaces and some of them have more resources than others do.  I’ve been adding new materials and trying to get my resources in all the stores so that you have a good selection.  I’ve also added a couple of new resources as well.  Please just stop by and check them out!  

Made by Teachers:  20% off  on 30-31 August.

Classful:  20% off with discount taken off at checkout on 30-31 August.

Amazon Ignite:  20% off (automatically set-up by Amazon, so uncertain of dates but should be 30-31 August).

I think that that’s about all for now.  It’s been a busy and hot summer, but it’s been a good one.  I hope that yours has been as well.  I’m so happy that you all are still here and following along.  I do have a new subscribers FREEbie still in the works.  I still don’t know where I stand with my religious education class.  We’re changing to Family Faith Formation and that means that the parents become the teachers at home and we meet less for class.

Happy Shopping!

It’s a Teacher Appreciation Sale!

It’s that time of the year where we tell all the teachers THANK YOU for all they do.  They, of course, deserve it all week long.  This is the week dedicated to them, so let’s make it a good one!  If I can find some good deals out there other than the sales, I’ll make a post about them like I’ve done the past 5 years.

New and Updated

Hello all!

I just want to give you some updates about what’s been going on.  Since I posted that I was updating some of the FREEbie resources on the site, I’ve been busy scouring to find the original documents.  The first day, I was able to do quite a few and I posted those updates below the post.  

I’ve gone through the site and I’ve added “image not available” to many of the posts because I wasn’t able to easily find the original pictures or replace them with something similar.  I’m not done though, as I have other back-up drives that I can dig out.  It’s just going to be a timely process.  Obviously, I haven’t found all my original files either.

Just a reminder that some of the resources are no longer on the blog as I’ve removed them and added them to my store.  Not all of them, of course.  Hopefully when I’m done with this, you’ll still have a great choice of FREEbies.  

One thing that I want to do is try to find some balance with what I offer.  Right now, I tend to add whatever extra FREEbies that I have to the Resource Library that is just for my newsletter subscribers.  That said, there’s not even as many in there as I’d like there to be.  So that’s where my balance comes in….adding some to the site and some to the Library.

cover page "Communion Memory Match" with purple cross background and Eucharist

With all that said, I do come bearing gifts.  This is an old file that I found and the best that I could tell, I haven’t shared it anyplace (except maybe my old Y!Group).  I left the original date on it, but I did update it and make it “prettier” so that I could share it with you.  My, I’ve come a long way in creating resources!  HAHA  This FREEbie is a simple set of concentration or memory match cards for Communion.  It’s various images of the Body of Christ.  I hope that you can use and enjoy this little game.  Oh, did I mention that it has a storage box for the cards too?  If you’d like to download it, just….

peach "click here" button with finger point

I won’t always be able to post that I’ve updated something, so if you’re looking for something in particular just keep an eye on that post or leave a comment about what you’re needing.  You can also reach out to me on social media or e-mail.

Updating Files

blue update key on dark keyboard

Hello all!

I think I’m sticking to my once a month posting pretty well.  I’m pretty sure that I’ve missed a month here or there, but for me, that’s good!  HAHA

blue update button on keyboard

I’m just here today to let you know that I’m working on updating some of my free resources that I share on this blog.  I hope to add some to the Free Resource Library for subscribers, but I don’t know if I’ll get that far.  My objective is to get many of the freebies that were here on the blog back on the blog.  It’s true that some won’t be back because I updated them so that I could sell them.  However others just plain got old or where I was hosting them, they got lost.  There’s other things that happened too.  Some things I learned couldn’t be shared, even for free (that might be for trademark, copyright, or something else).  Those won’t be back, but I’m hoping to fix up many of the other files and get them someplace safe and secure where I won’t lose them again.

This project has been a long time coming.  I’ve made attempts to start it before and then work or life….and they just didn’t get done.  I was doing some updates the other day and realized how “old” some of the blog posts looked or how empty they were.  I had missing images, missing files, and things that needed help!  So, I’m here to help.

Please don’t expect this to be done quickly, as it will take time.  I plan to devote as much time as possible for the rest of March to this and then continue after that.  I don’t really have a way of letting you all know what’s been updated.  If there’s something that you’ve looked for and it wasn’t there or unavailable, please let me know and I’ll try to work on that first.  Again, please remember that I have lost files over the years and some I’m just now allowed to post for various reasons.

I hope that you all are well and that Spring has moved into the area where you live.  I’m not a fan of winter at all and I dislike the cold, so this has been such a welcome change for me!  Keep your eyes out for updated posts and files!
