All about Miss Melissa!


Hello, and welcome to my blog!
How about a little bit about me?
This is me showing off some of my stained glass work at a sorority fundraiser

I have lived in Wisconsin all my life... until about three months ago.  After I graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Whitewater and received my bachelor's degree in art education, I moved to Illinois.  I am five minutes away from my bestie from college and I have my amazing boyfriend right by my side.   I love it here, although I will admit I find myself missing Wisconsin every once and awhile.  I can't say that it is what I imagined my life after college would look like, but I am grateful it ended up this way.  In my free time I enjoy scrapbooking, creating stained glass and participating in game nights with my friends.  Since graduating I haven't had much luck finding an art teacher job, so I have broadened my horizons... which led me to what I am doing now!

I am currently the after school teacher at a small Montessori school.  The purpose of this blog is to create a portfolio of my teaching.  I LOVE my job, but by goal is to some day teach art in a public school.  I love gathering resources to use in my classroom from places like TeachersPayTeachers
 and Pinterest, and I hope to be able to share activities that my kids love with other educators.
