Basket Case


I see lots of stuff online I’d like to use to set up and organize the homeschool room. Boy howdy, is there alot of fun stuff out there! For us though, I just want a place for everything, everything in it’s place and still lots of uncluttered, open space.

I'm thinking baskets. Maybe some of these?


Fabric Basket Storage Ideas

Seat Sack is the name of the company. For around 10 bucks already made, the main reason I can think of for making my own is because I could customize them to fit whatever chairs we finally end up with. Maybe I could repurpose some vintage fabric I saw at a Goodwill recently. There are lots of patterns for messenger bags on etsy.com that I might be able to use.

Hanging storage baskets Look at how adorable these are!

Super cute storage baskets I could use for my shelves.

Lovin this wall rack for canvas baskets. The company is no longer functioning, but I have an idea on how to make a version of this. Hmmm, we’ll see.

If I make any of the fabric ones, maybe I could buy some super cute fabric from my friend Jona at Fabritopia. If I make anything, especially if I fat chance actually SEW, I'll let you know.


If you are a basket case today, I hope it is this kind!

Christmas Craft: Snowman Ornament

I combined and idea I saw here with an idea I saw here and we made these snowmen.



Make sure you use microwave popcorn. We used regular popcorn and it turned out okay eventually.

We are going to make some other stuff with clear ball ornaments too. What have you made with them? (They are 50% off right now at Joann's if you can get to one).

I am thankful for the icy weather that is forcing me to NOT finish my Christmas shopping and TO spend time doing fun things with my younger kids. We have several fun things lined up just in case the weather stays icy. What do you do with your kids when you are stranded at home?
