Playroom Art Display

I know I’ve talked before about how much I love Jen’s blog, IHeart Organizing. It’s full of inspiration at every turn, and I’m amazed that anyone with three small boys can still look that good! This week she’s highlighted a surprisingly easy project that she did to display her kids artwork in their new playroom.

 

Tackling Paper & Piles

Another great post from Homefries. I feel like this article could have, and probably should have, been written by me. The similarities between her kitchen counter and mine are scary.

 

Secondhand or Bare Bottom

I am in love with this site, which I discovered through Pinterest. Her goal is to only wear clothes that she has bought or received secondhand. Except underwear. I hope. Anyway, I love it! She looks stylish and modern, and not at all like she’s wearing other people’s discards…which is what a lot of people think of when they picture a thrift store. I’m a big “fashion blog” reader, believe it or not, but the suggestions are often a bit pricy. Even the inexpensive options are, well, too expensive. I love seeing that Abbie can put together a cohesive outfit without spending more than $10-$20…often less.

 

Why We Don’t Start School at 8 AM

Simple Homeschool has such a nice, balanced view of homeschooling. Since we are planning to homeschool our kids-and have already started, to some extent-I really enjoyed this article.
