1. A bulletin board for invitations only
2. Drawing paper as a counter top place mat (roll it out
& let them draw while you prepare the food & then ball
up the paper when your finished. LOVE THIS!
1. Individual, stackable boot/shoe trays from IKEA.
2. Magazine holders for each day of the week. Put in each holder
what you to turn in or send to school for the day. Turn that day forward
so kids can grab and go.
3. The door pocket is a little much for me but a big calendar on the wall is , I’m
afraid, something I’m going to have to do this year.
1. Love the wire rack to display art work
It’s back to school next week for us. Goodbye lounging around till 10am. I will miss you. I still have things to get and lists to check off. Last week I picked up a copy of Real Simple Family which had some great back to school organizational ideas. These were a few of my fav’s and if I make a quick trip to IKEA I’m think I can give them a try.
ps- stay tuned….this week I’ll be sharing some of my favorite baby items that are on my wish list complete with a picture of my bump (ha)!

what fabulous ideas! Right now I need the bulletin board for invites only. I missed a few because they somehow got forgotten.

Definitely a GOOD idea to be organized when going back to school… my teen started today and he was TOTALLY unorganized… le sigh… I try so hard to get him organized! I hope you have better luck!
