Amazon Favorites: At Home Prep Essentials

Hi Friends!

I hope you have been having the best week! 

Every Sunday, I share some Amazon favorites! A few weeks ago, I shared what I use at home to prep for the school week. Just so you know, if you do purchase any of these products, I get a small percentage of the product price at no additional cost to you!
Check them out below and have fun!

1. I used to cut every. single. task card. by. hand. until my fingers almost fell off. Never again! This paper trimmer has made me much more efficient in my prep time at home. (Fun Fact: I also try not to buy or create anything for TPT that isn't a straight line just so I can use this ALL THE TIME. I love saving time and my fingers!). Check this product out here! 


2. A laminator at home as been awesome. I print mostly everything at home, so I love having a personal laminator so I can get everything done right away. It makes creating center games SO EASY. Love it! Check it out here!
   

3. You can NEVER have enough laminating sheets. I always buy these every time. They are great quality and they come in a pack of 200. YAS! Check them out here!

            


4. This Silhouette Cameo has been an awesome addition to my home office. I used to cut, and cut, and cut, and CUT. This has made bulletin board prep SO EASY! I can use all of my fonts (which are a must) and all the letters can be cut in a matter of minutes. LOVE!. Check it out here if you'd like to splurge on YOU for once! :)

            





5. If the cameo is just a no go right now, try out these sharp scissors. You can never have enough!! Check them out here!


 


6. This HP Instant Ink compatible printer is awesome. It can print double sided...this was way too awesome when I first got mine. Am I easy to please? Maybe! I have never had an issue with my printer and the ink program is worth it. Check it out here!


 



7. Ok, this has been a GAME CHANGER. A LIFE SAVER. I'm only a little bit dramatic but I totally believe that this has saved me hundreds in the 2 years I've used it. Essentially, you only pay for the pages you print instead of the ink you use. So, what you do is you have to have an instank ink compatible printer. Then, you sign up for a program that works for you. You can sign up for 15 (FREE), 50 ($2.99 a month), 100 ($4.99 a month), or 300 ($9.99 a month) pages a month. If your ink levels run low, the printer communicates to the company and they automatically send you more ink. You do nothing. It's amazing. If you happen to go over your print limit, you only have to pay $1 per 25 pages. It will not break the bank. :) If you'd like to sign up for Instant Ink, you can use my link here and YOU will get a free month and I will get a free month! Win win, friend!


 

8. While we're talking about printing essentials, I cannot leave out my favorite, your favorite colored paper. It's bright and vibrant and it makes us all smile! This is my favorite pack of Astrobrights. I use these for task cards, anything black and white, and my dismissal tags! It's the best! Check it out here!

Happy prepping! :)
