Make over obsession

I am currently in a complete and utter obsessive state!
 
I decided that I would spend the time this summer to make over my TPT store.
 
That led me down a rabbit hole to my current obsessive state.
 
I thought I would share with you guys. You might find it interesting, especially if you are TPT sellers yourselves.
 
I downloaded my product list from TPT and copied the list into an Excel spreadsheet. For each product in my store I am doing the following things:
 
1.     I download it from TPT and check it over to see if it needs any updates.

2.     I decide if the product needs a new preview.

3.     I read the product description and see if anything needs to be added.

4.     I decide if it needs a cover page or not. In the past I have not used cover pages, but I started teaching myself how to use PicMonkey.com. Now I feel like EVERY product needs its own cover page.
I'm spending a LOT of time looking/creating on Picmonaey
5.     I save the TPT product link to an excel file that I found at: http://tptschool.com/teachers-pay-teachers-product-link-generator/

This automatically creates codes so that I can place hyperlinks in my product descriptions.

6.     I reupload the file and add hyperlinks to similar products to the product description.

7.     I save the made over product in a curriculum folder. I have not updated my Entire English Curriculum in two years, so I figured it was time.


I have been working nonstop the last four days and I am only about halfway through. 

Take a look at the updated cover pages I have so far!

Staples Engineering Prints

Last summer I decided that I wanted to re-do my bedroom.  I painted the room purple, which i've always wanted to do, but the big thing I wanted was prints for my walls.  I did a lot of research and man were prints expensive in the sizes that I wanted! Finally, I learned about  Staples Engineering Prints They are super cheap, and actually print really nicely (even though the website claims they are not intended for photos).  Take a look at how mine turned out (Don't mind the mess, this was still in the putting back together phase). How I did it: After my prints came in the mail, I went to Lowes and found  This . All I did was trace the print on the insulation board, cut it with a regular box cutter, and paint the edges of it with a Paint Sample  that accented my walls.  The last step was gluing the print to the insulation board. I liked  this spray  the best because I could reposition the print in case I didn't line it up just so. After I got ...
