Fellowes Laminator Review and #Giveaway #LaminateIt

This is a sponsored post on behalf of  Fellowes and The Motherhood.  All thoughts and opinions expressed are my own. 

Yes, it is true, agh!  It is time to think Back to  School.  As a parent, there are always lots of important things to keep track of – new specials schedules, fall sports for all three girls, and information that you want to have throughout the year.  As a teacher,  there are always things that I need to create and want to keep such as name tags, charts and things for learning centers.  All of these things are great reasons to have the Fellowes’ Saturn2 95 laminator.

Fellowes’ Saturn2 95 laminator is the ultimate tool for back-to-school because it helps preserve important documents like schedules, calendars, flash cards, charts, certificates, classroom decorations and more.

Check out the Idea Center for inspiration and project ideas!

A Laminator

 Fellowes Saturn2 95 is available at Staples and Staples.com for a suggested retail price of $159.99.

Pictured above are the:

Fellowes offers a wide range of laminators to suit a variety of needs with products also available at Walmart and Amazon.com.

There are so many fun projects that you can do with this laminator.  Just like this one.  This was our test run using the laminator.  

We made sure the machine was ready when the flashing wait sign stopped flashing and remained on and we heard the ready signal.

   

 

    • The Saturn2 95 is the perfect machine for moms and teachers because it combines exclusive technologies and features:
        • HeatGuard™ Technology: Double-walled insulation keeps heat inside so laminator is comfortable to touch, making it safe for homes and classrooms with children

       

    • Advanced Temperature Control: Hot and cold laminating capabilities ensure consistent, smooth results every time
    • Release Lever: Permits easy removal or re-centering of stalled pouches to prevent jams

 

  An important reminder is to make sure that the pouch enters the machine sealed edge first.   Once we did this, we realized it was so easy to use.  It got me thinking about lots of other ways to use the laminator.  The first thought was to use the laminator to create memories.  The kind of memories that might easily get ripped, torn or fall apart through time.  My preschooler brought home this cute handprint memory poem and I thought this was a perfect #Laminateit moment.

I am so excited thinking of ideas to prepare for the beginning of the year.   Check out  my Back-to-school-themed Pinterest board of Back to School Project Ideas  that can be done using the Fellowes Saturn2 95 laminator.

 

You can also check out the “Classroom Creativity” board on the Fellowes Pinterest page and the Idea Center for laminating ideas and classroom inspiration!

  9. I would laminate all of my children’s art work and make albums. My Mom did the same when I was a child 🙂

  10. I’d laminate some of the paper items I want to put in our Disneyworld vacation scrapbook.

  11. The very 1st piece of art work my son made me at school, many years ago. I remember how proud he was. Still makes me tear up just thinking about it.

  14. I would make tags for my daughter’s book bag and other bags that she travels with that say “swim” to show her love for the sport!

  20. My daughter’s first story she wrote…It was great…or at least I thought so…lol!

  26. We have military DL extension cards that would be our first priority to laminate!

  31. I think the first thing I would laminate would be my families ss cards and birth certificates just so they would be a bit safer!

  45. What wouldn’t I laminate??? I would go crazy in my classroom!!!! I have wanted one forever.

  52. We homeschool, so my first step would be to laminate a few sheets of paper to be used for dry-erase

  67. I’m trying to think of what I would laminate first, and it occurred to me that my boys would make it so that EVERYTHING would be laminated! I think I would do my social security card, though.

  68. We are teaching my oldest son to write, so I would laminate some practice sheets he could use a dry erase marker on
    thanks

  77. I would laminate things like social security cards and other documents I do not want to get torn.

  86. As an art teacher and mom, I would use the laminator for various projects. It would be great to laminate check lists and group info for my students. For my son, I’d love to laminate his art and create tracer sheets that he can reuse.
