I'm a first year teacher. I know, I know. I need to write a post explaining how all that came about. I'll put that on my to-blog list. Back to this post - I am a first year teacher and I started in the middle of the school year so my classroom was/is full of stuff and I am doing my best to make it my own a little bit at a time. This podium doesn't get a whole lot of use in my classroom but it has been a bit of an eye sore for me and I knew it needed some kind of makeover. This is how it started out looking - yellow and black with a poor spray paint job. So I loaded it up one day after school and brought it home where it sat for a week or two while I was deciding on colors.
I really wanted to give it a pop of color but ultimately I decided to go with white. It took several coats of spray paint to cover up the black. Fun Fact: As my husband and I were spray painting the podium we noticed a name with class of '66 carved into it. I knew this thing was old but wowzers! I added some vinyl to it and it looks like a totally different podium. I am very happy with the end product and can't wait to take it to school tomorrow. It will be making a little trip to the Engineering class first so they can fix the bottom of it - after all it is OLD! :)
