Pssst: to see our updated space, click here!
On the day when everyone else starts posting their super cute adorable photos of back to school on Facebook, I’m going to do the very same thing, but in our pajamas. Messy hair, eye boogers and all. Holding our sign for appropriate grade levels, proudly. Because as someone who chooses to live most possible moments of life in said pajamas disguised as yoga pants (sans eye boogers-most of the time…) The best thing about home-schooling is, hands down, the pajama part. Sorrynotsorry.
Once we decided to pull the trigger on this thing, we also decided we needed the space to do it, because I’m a super OCD control freak and I knew it would make me feel better I’m an amazing mom. Today we thought we’d show you a little of what we’ve been up to around here. (I’m a nester at heart… you should have seen me with a baby on the way.) Our curriculum came just in time, and when I posted a photo, a friend of mine noted that it looked as though the Scholastic Book Fair exploded in our home. We needed a place to organize it all. Yesterday. Cue overwhelmedfirsttimerauthenticpanicattack.
Our home is under construction with two different spaces right now that will only help enrich their experience (see: playroom + study) but is definitely not helping my go-with-the-flowness right now. They needed stability. One main place we can always gather, and somewhere they feel like is just for them and their studies. It’s different for everyone, but it worked. I feel better now.
The Challenge? To work with what we had. We wanted to keep our dining room in a place where we could easily take it back to that, if we needed to use it. Because let’s face it… we never use our dining room. I have good intentions, but it doesn’t happen. And you know what? We really love this space now. It feels right.
So with a little paint, and some materials we already had around the house, we decided to do just that. Here’s our dining room before:
You may have noticed that in photos of the past, the table was covered. That was because I wanted to paint it, but spent way too much money on it (see: serious first buyer’s remorse) circa 2003 when I thought I was supposed to buy furniture to fill up those spaces. And still (after all this time… I know, right?) was scared. So I pulled myself up by my bootstraps, and decided that if I can homeschool my children, I can paint that table. It’s like a universal rule of good school juju or something.
I also decided now was a great time to maybe give Chalk Paint another try, because I wanted a good, solid finish. Shaunna may or may not have talked me off the edge of the mid-aerobic waxing cliff, but it was totally worth it. We love the results.
In retrospect, the table really had nothing do do with homeschooling. But it made me feel better to have it in a pretty color. I told you I’m OCD.
We covered up our little slabs of art with grasscloth wall paper scraps we had lying around… a cute set of two “bulletin boards” for them to display their work. In jars, we have little certificates for them when they’ve earned them with good work, as well as little terrariums for plants to grow. Every homeschool room needs a terrarium or two right?
We may or may not be in the market for a microscope. … And telescope. We’re a little excited about this. Bring on the pig brains!
What? Too far?
That multifaceted mirror that sat here forever? I was over it. We added a little MDF and plexiglass, touched up the frame, and it became a dry erase board. It was going to be a chalkboard, but then Gina talked me off the chalkboard cliff, and I realized I may or may not officially have a few too many chalkboards in our home.
Don’t you love having friends that will totally tolerate your stupid questions you can bounce ideas off of? We have the option of leaving it blank for a bit of abstract art when not in use, or writing fun messages for the whole family. A little touch of the unexpected.
Our old photo frame: Will still don photos in the future, but I really wanted to take the opportunity to fill them with inspiring quotes, lines from fave children’s books, and Bible verses. We think it added a fun element to the space. And gives us something to refer to on our bad days.
It added a lot of fun color to that wall!
The kids love the dry erase board. I’m finding that I do both of their lessons with each participating on their own levels. They take turns climbing up on the stool, and writing all about it.
This little Bee was a flea market find, that we spray painted and affectionately refer to as Louie. (Emerson calls him Mr. George because they couldn’t settle on a name, and she was mad that Aiden got to pick.)
Baskets that once held china (and collected dust) now house books, curriculum (we went with Sonlight, and though I know we will supplement and adjust, it gave me peace of mind for a first timer) notebooks and supplies. Our old centerpiece now holds colored pencils, crayons, glue sticks… and whatever their little hearts desire. Oh, and do you like our faces? A discipline chart taped over some old art. I’m sure most of you have seen it-we borrowed the idea from their school. Today, Mommy and Daddy’s clips were moved to red.
It’s working.
I absolutely had to move a globe from the boys’ room (which I thought was totally generic, and I would not actually use it. But did in our first ever lesson) and an abacus that I scored at Blue Willow Home & Farm. Okay. We may never use the abacus, but it still makes me happy. Shhhh.
These shelves will soon house science experiments, projects and even more art. We can’t wait to show it off to anyone who comes over and stands, a bit confused, in our foyer. We love this space!
I’m sure we’ll adjust as we go, and I think this is the biggest learning curve I’ve ever taken a joy ride on… but it’s definitely a winner in their books.
Here we go! Hurray for pajamas.
April says
I’m absolutely fascinated by your entry into homeschooling and would love to hear about it all along the way! I’m such a “classroom” nerd and love all this stuff!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Awe thanks so much April! I will try not to over share, but it’s such a big part of our lives right now, it’s kinda hard not to! ;}
Julie says
Beautiful & functional! Love your gallery of quotes, Ashley!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Thanks so much, Julie!
Angela R says
Looks awesome! Good luck and thanks for sharing!
andrea jenkins says
good for you! we homeschooled last year and went with sonlight for the exact same reason you did – ease and peace of mind. the readers were fantastic! enjoy every minute. š
Bethany K says
Beautiful space! Any chance you’d offer all those quotes/verses as free printables/downloads? LOVE them!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Maybe! Stay tuned. ;}
Laura Robinson says
I was going to ask the same thing! I love each and every one of them!
Nicole W. says
This! you are so talented! we just moved into a new home and I am trying to create our homeschool room, too! These are fabulous!
Nicole W. says
And congrats from a fellow homeschooler! Lifestyle was a huge factor in our decision to homeschool–I wanted to be in charge of our schedule…now I can plan weeks off around having a baby, ect. instead of stressing out about how to handle it all. LOVE!
Lindsey says
Ashley,
I follow your blog regularly and love to see your new projects. I have never commented on your blog but I feel so led to now. I read your initial posts when your kids entered school and the crying, the carpool lane stress, etc. and I started praying for you. I am a homeschooling mom of three, this is my second year and as I read your posts I could feel the stress coming through the screen. We experienced the same frustrations when our kids were in school and I felt there was a better way. Hence we stared homeschooling..we use Classical Conversations. It is so cool to see how GOD has led you to teach and I can literally feel freedom as you write this blog post. It will amaze you how GOD will redeem your time as you teach your kids at home. Out life has become so much more peaceful since homeschooling. So happy that you took this leap..I will continue to pray for you!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Thank you so much Lindsey. I’m simply amazed, already, at how much more time we have to simply breathe. It’s a great thing so far. I will be praying for you, too!
Marina Gallovitch says
Did you make your own chalk paint for the table or did you use Ann Sloan? Just curious..Was it a pain to wax?
ashley @ the handmade home says
Hey Marina! I used Annie Sloan. I was not a fan the first time I used it, but decided to give her another try. I am glad we did. It was a workout to wax, but also kinda fun. I mean, either way you look at it, painting furniture is work… this is just another type of work. :} I hope that helps – but I am very pleased with the outcome!
Dallas Henderson says
Amazing! I love it all! And I can’t wait for some of those quotes to be free printables (hint š ). I am sure your kids will learn big things…and you will too. Y’all are great parents!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Thank you so much Dallas. Stay tuned! ;}
Monica says
This looks awesome!! As a teacher for a lot of years and now a blogger this post is up my alley! You did such a good job making simple tweaks to the space to make it perfect for it’s new use!! I love all the printables you made and the dry erase it perfect! I always love your rooms, but this one is just really great. It’s simple and yet still right on the mark! š
-Mon
ashley @ the handmade home says
Thanks so much Monica! I am thrilled with this space. I like it so much more than the dining room that it was! We’re actually using it, and that feels good! ;}
Sarah O. says
Amazing! I can’t believe you did all of that already!! It’s actually very simple-genius!
ashley @ the handmade home says
We spent the weekend working like psychos, but it was very simple. It was just what the kids needed. Thank you! ;}
Brittany says
I love that you decorated a room for their schooling! Teachers at school do it, why not do it at home? š It looks great and I really LOVE all the fun prints you made. Will those be a printable??
ashley @ the handmade home says
Stay tuned! Stay tuned. ;}
Jessica kent says
Love love love it! It makes me excited to homeschool mine in another few years!
Amy says
I love how your subtle changes have made this room feel like a classroom, yet it can still work as a dining room if you ever (really) needed one. The wall of shelves is perfect for displaying projects and holding supplies, and the inspirational display wall will help keep ALL of you motivated! š
Erin @ Two Story Cottage says
Color me crazy impressed!! I am totally going to bug you and see how it is going as often as possible. Looks like it is all going to work so well!! You have a great start. The room looks awesome. Perfect school room. Way to whip that together in no time!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Haha thanks friend. Let’s catch up soon. SHEW! ;}
Brittany says
Also, I would love to know more about your dining table transformation! I’ve never used chalk paint before and I would be really interested to hear why you chose to do that on your dining table. Is it more durable?
Tania @ Run To Radiance says
A beautiful use of space š and I’m totally jealous of yoga pants pjs. We have casual dress code at work but I’m thinking that might be taking it too far š
Michelle says
The room looks like a great spot to live and learn. This is my 14th year of homeschooling. I’ve enjoyed it so very much. Enjoy your ride!
Elizabeth says
Oh,it looks so gorgeous! Wish I had a dedicated space for school. This year we will be wintering in Texas,so we will do school in our RV. Should be interesting !
ashley @ the handmade home says
Well, therein lies the key words… wintering… RV… Not sure that’s a bad thing at all… ;} Not many kids get a traveling classroom!
Gabrielle says
Those prints are fantastic! Looked in your shop, though….not there š Where can I get them? Thanks and good luck on your new adventure!
Alison says
I am looking forward to following your homeschooling journey. Honestly, I am a little jealous that you have taken the leap while I have thought about it and have been quick to find reasons why it wouldn’t work for me. You are insprirational and hopefully it will give me some courage!
I would also be really interested in the quotes if you offered them as printables. Thanks!
C.T. says
Love it! We just started our homeschool too, using that same curriculum. š
Tracy @ simply-designed.us says
Congrats on becoming a home schooling momma! I too am a first timer this year, but with a sophomore in high school! I’m still trying to get our school room put together but I’m confident it will happen! Cheers to pajamas!!
Elizabeth Byler Younts says
Looks awesome Ashley. That’s the same room we used also when we were in the sub-div…moving away this week. See some awesome read alouds and Sonlight stuff…great choice! We do science, read alouds, and history with Sonlight. Everything else I piece together.
So excited for your new adventure!
audra says
i love the new use of your space! as usual, it looks amazing! also, i’m LOVING the quotes and bible verses..any chance those are printables from somewhere?
Britt Jones says
yes, yes, yes!!! Please!
Maryann C says
Love the “new” space! It’s perfect! And pretty! I never had a chance to post to your blog the day you asked about homeschooling curriculums. We had a case of the Life Crazies going on that day… Any who… first caveat – I don’t homeschool. I’ve read 900 blogs and books about it, have oodles of friends who do, and used to live in Purcellville, VA, the homeschooling capital of the US apparently. Just recently, a homeschooling mom friend said she was using http://www.allinonehomeschool.com. It’s free, classical more or less, Christian-based, and contains real world science. After looking through it, I would definitely use this. I am an academic snob, and have pretty high standards, gotta say. Oh, and did I mention it’s all free? It links you online to all sorts of literature, poetry, history texts, art, science, etc. to use each day with the curriculum. Anyway, check it out! Good luck to you! I know all your followers including me will be eager to hear how it goes. We’ll especially be curious on any tips on how to homeschool and retain your sanity. š
Britt Jones says
Amazing, inspiring, awesome and I want to join!!!!
Becky says
Perfect! Proud of you!!
Lindsay at Life of Splendor says
It’s so beautiful and inspiring – the perfect place to learn! I just have a feeling about this…it’s going to be awesome.
Jenn @ My Fabuless Life says
This looks AWESOME! Just thought I’d let you know, the Costco in my area had a killer deal the other day on a microscope/telescope set. I don’t know how high quality they are, I just saw them in passing, but I thought I’d pass it along š
JePoi says
Hi there! Just wondering if your awesome Positive Printables are available somewhere? I apologize if I’m just overlooking them but hey, I’m a noodlehead. This is our 5th year as kitchen table homeschoolers and I’m ready to define a separate school space. I think these would be so perfect š
Sandy says
I absolutely love this! I am all about transforming your house into space you use! Keep sharing all the details of your adventure. I am hooked and totally considering it myself now!
Elizabeth says
hi
what is that piece that holds the smile faces? have you covered that in your blog in the past? it looks so interesting–would love to know more about it! š
thanks
denise says
Fabulous school room! You are going to love having a dedicated room for school. We waited several years before we remade our dining room into a school room. It was so frustrating to get things out every morning and clean them up every afternoon. After a while we ended up leaving things out all over the kitchen table which drove my husband nuts. š Creating a dedicated school room was a big commitment but once we did it I knew that we should have done it sooner! We love that room and spend time in there even during non-school hours.
Also, I’m thrilled that you are using Sonlight! We have used it for many years and love it so much. My best advice for using Sonlight and enjoying it fully is to let yourself off the hook. There are so many materials and books that it can quickly become overwhelming. If you find you’re not enjoying a book, give yourself permission to skip the rest of it. And feel free to slow the pace if you are overwhelmed. You’ll be amazed that even if you skip a few books throughout the year, your children will still be getting double the information that they get in the public schools in a year. And I need someone to pass my used Sonlight materials on to (cheap!) and only live <2hours from you. If you end up sticking with Sonlight, let me know and I'll be happy to come over that way for a shopping trip and curriculum handoff. š
marsha sefcik says
I’m sure you will love having a dedicated space. We are in our third year and I just got to the point of having a space just like this. For the first two years, we used our dining room which was no fun as we eat in the dining room for all of our meals since our kitchen is not an eat in kitchen. It was a pain. So, I converted our family room which we never used in to our home school/craft/office space. You can check it out here; http://64.17.189.71/2013/09/craft-room-and-home-schooling-space/
Enjoy the journey that is homeschooling!
LibbyBoyle says
Your class room looks fantastic. A warm and comfy learning environment who could ask for more. Flores those little people on the adult chairs, looks sooooo cute. Good luck with your home schooling.
LibbyBoyle says
Sorry, typo! Should say, “Love those little people … “. Don’t you love predictive text!?
Barbi says
Good Luck and Gods Blessings to your whole family as you set out on this new journey.
Best Wishes and Toodles, Barbi
Crystal @My Blissful Space says
So cute!! Your decision to homeschool has been on my mind, and the oddest thing is that the other day my daughter said, “I want to stay home. I want to homeschool.” I have no idea how she even knows the WORD!!
Cheryl says
We homeschooled our children years ago. Best choice we ever made. They both are in college now, but I lived those days. Watching them learn and sometimes learning with them. I was often referred to as “the queen of field trips”. There is just something about actually visiting the place that you learned about in the textbooks. Our fave field trip was to Williamsburg when we were learning about that time period.
So light is a great curriculum. If I remember its literature based. We love books! Our fave thing to do next to going to the library was go to Barnes and Noble and read. Enjoy this time. God be with you as you start this journey.
Kelli says
Just curious but how are the kiddos adjusting to homeschooling? Is it pretty easy since they are so young or are they confused? Great post!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Hey Kelli! We are only in our first week. And It takes some planning on my part, the day before. We are using Sonlight, so I think it all depends on which curriculum you use. I’m adjusting a little as we go, but this isn’t intense for us because we’re downshifting from Magnet schools which were too much for us-not too much for our kids, they could handle it-but I didn’t agree with that process. (There are a lot of factors that play into this) But right now, we are in love. The kids have their moments, because it can be a lot of consolidated work all together like that – but honestly? I already feel like we’ve learned so much. Notice I’ve said ‘we’. I’ve already brushed up on my shoddy geographical skills. I’m tying their lessons in together (K+2nd) and they get double the learning working together. Sonlight does this anyway, but I’m making extra efforts to tie things in from my own knowledge with a global learning style. It’s kind of amazing, actually. I’m also in awe of how much work I’m putting into it, just because I’m thrilled to work with them. It’s just another creative outlet for me but one I am so much more passionate about… and I had no idea I would feel this way. We are probably totally in the honeymoon phase, but they say the first year is the hardest. I feel like I’m in my element when I work on this with them. I just had no idea how passionate I would be about this. It’s thrilling to watch how excited they are to learn. We love it. And we’re reading more together as a family, and discussing more than we ever have before. I can’t say enough… maybe this is an entire post but it’s just awesome. We’re thrilled. ;} The kids are thrilled. It’s a lot of work on both parts, but I’m in awe at how right this feels. We actually have more structure in our home, and I’m becoming a more productive person. I hope this helps!
Kelli says
That’s just so awesome to hear! Hats off to you and your whole family! Can’t wait to hear more about it as time goes on š
Rebecca says
What a lovely room! I think that you will love using a main room, like the dining room. We started out homeschooling in a basement playroom and it was just too far away from the action of the house. Plus there just was not enough sunshine, and I need sunshine. Now we are in the kitchen and it works well for all of us.
Good luck with the homeschooling! I related SO much to your first post on it, the emotions of leaving a great school and wonderful teachers. We did the same thing. The first year I felt I had to really explain myself to others and maybe a bit to myself too. Now in year three, I really own our decision. I can see how homeschooling is just such a perfect fit for our family, all of us, not just the kids. I am truly thankful each and every morning as we wake up and start our day in a calm and non rushed manner. I am thankful as I see them learn and grow. I am thankful as I see them love the process of learning and not just learning to get a good grade on a test. I am thankful as I finally learn why when “two vowels go a walking, the first one does the talking.” Why knew?! Best of luck to you!
Emily @ My Love for Words says
I didn’t know you homeschool! We are starting our first/trial year right now. My daughter’s only in preschool so we don’t have a regimented schedule or anything, but it’s definitely kind of an overwhelming experience (esp given I never imagined doing this!). I love your classroom. If this year goes well we’ll probably put one together next year. Pinning your room for future reference š
Rebecca says
I have read your blog for many years but have never commented. We also homeschool! And I work fulltime for a large company that requires me to be available during work hours. Yes, it is challenging. However, last Christmas I decided we would try private school for the youngest – 3rd grade. Wow. It was so much harder. Yes, he was gone all day, but then when he dragged in the door, I had to face book reports, lessons, homework, projects, etc. Most weren’t even necessary except for the school to say they were doing them. We are back homeschooling the youngest this year as we found school was very inconvenient for our family’s style of living. It just put so much unnecessary pressure on all of us. I’m sure it is great for some, but it wasn’t for us.
Fast forward this year and our oldest 2 – homeschooled the whole way until this year (10th and 9th) are adjusting to public high school. We supposedly live in the “best district” in our state, which happens to be at the bottom of the US. Alrighty then. Anyway, this is the first experience they have had with public school. The hardest thing for them so far is adjusting to being confined for 7 hours a day, 5 days a wk. The 9th grader doesn’t get lunch at our large high school until 1:30-2:00. He has no break until then. How many corporate employees would tolerate that? I know the ones at my large company would never stand for it. They are gone from 7:30-4:00. The 9th grader then goes to soccer for 2 hours plus travel back and forth and STILL has 2-4 hours of homework a night! What is our society doing? In my opinion, the sports need to be cut down. We have argued that battle and he is allowed to play if his grades stay up. Unfortunately the coach has stated if they miss practice due to homework, they will not play at all the next game. What is that priorizing? They are adjusting, but they do miss the freedom of using the bathroom when they need to, eating when they are actually hungry, etc. All the things you mostly CAN do in college and corporate America but CAN”T in school. Interesting, huh?
I applaud your decision. And if it doesn’t work out, don’t beat yourself up. Just remember (I thought this immediately when I saw your curriculum laid out): your are at a wonderful and fun stage. School should be relaxed and FUN! Please know that whether it is math, English, science, health, etc…it will repeat almost every year. They will most likely get it all when they need it. I have always stressed strong basic math, excellent reading skills, and good spelling in the years prior to 5th and it has served my boys very well. They test well and seem to love learning. They are amazed at the high schoolers who just want to skim by and don’t care at all about what they are learning. My boys have enjoyed some really good classes that I was not providing such as anatomy. But all in all, 7 hours a day, 5 days a wk – confined…wow. How many adults would go for that?
Please enjoy your young years! They will fly and you will have a high schooler before you know it! GO TO THE ZOO! GO ON FIELD TRIPS! Do not get overwhelmed with Sonlight. We also used it but I never used their schedules. For the young years it was too much and I would have felt over overwhelmed. You have time for all that. Enjoy. Do fun things. They will remember that. My oldest were just remembing how much we went to the zoo and saw our grandparents and met dad for lunch! Fun memories!
Good luck you!!!! I can’t wait to see how you like it. All days will be different. Some will be hard. Just keep going!!
Chelsea says
What a great space to homeschool!! I am a homeschool graduate myself. Homeschooling is the best thing my mom ever could have done for me š That’s really all I had to say – other than I love your blog, I’ve been reading silently for a year now, but you never fail to put a smile on my face and I think we would totally be best friends if we ever met š
ashley @ the handmade home says
Thanks so much, Chelsea! ;}
Kendra says
Ahhhh! I’m so excited because I love your blog and your talent and all your colors, and now you’re a homeschooler like me! And doing the exact same Sonlight, it seems! Can’t wait to hear more during the year. :):) I identify with every part of this post—especially wanting to set up a beautiful space for it. Mine is in my living room and is nowhere near as beautiful as yours, but it’s a great challenge. I love the constraint of having to make the practical (a school room or school area) beautiful while including everything you need: globe, blackboards or whiteboards, cups of pencils and books and everything. A great creative puzzle to solve.

Tanya says
We are on our third year homeschooling, and I LOVE this space so much. I loved it before too, but now I can see how much we need a designated area. Hang in there, I have tweaked what I thought this would be like about 487 times, but still glad we are doing it! š
Jess says
I absolutely love it… We are embarking on our first year of homeschooling this year too. I am still trying to fine tune a space that I love in a temporary and impossibly small rental… But even amidst the close quarters are chaos of it all we are all so much calmer without the drama of public school. Good job and good luck this year .
PS… Did you make that shelf (another post?) Or buy it? I love it!!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Hey Jess! You can read all about our shelf here.
APerkins says
I love your blog and have been following it for a while. I have enjoyed your home decorating style and you have inspired a few projects in my home. Now that you are homeschooling I am even more excited to read about your adventures. We have a two year old whom we have started doing some preschool activities with at home and we are thinking homeschooling may be in our future for elementary school as well. Thanks for your inspiration and good luck on this new journey of homeschooling.
Jessica says
Great room! That giant Sonlight pile looks familiar as I just started homeschooling last week with it as well. I’m working on creating our homeschool room now and I enjoyed seeing your ideas and how you really made it your own. Hope you and your children are enjoying your time together as much as my family is!
Tracy says
I just saw your room pinned today and I love it! I am in my fifth year of homeschooling. My middle child began Sonlight last year and my oldest began this year. We love it! We are tweaking a bit, but the books are so amazing. I am a former classroom teacher and I love designing curriculum. I still design a bit, but with three blessings Sonlight does a far better job than I have time to do.
I adore this room. I love when children’s spaces are child friendly but still blend with the home. I love your colors too! Thanks so much for sharing!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Amen to Sonlight and saving time! ;} that’s awesome – major props to you! Thank you so much for your kind words and stopping by. We’re taking a ‘break’ from school this Christmas and I told Jamin (the husband) that I actually miss it right now! It’s crazy how unexpectedly passionate I am about educating my children. ;} Have an amazing winter break!
Stephanie says
I’m in LOVE with the shelves! Where are they from?!
ashley @ the handmade home says
Hey Stephanie! Thanks so much for stopping by! We actually grabbed them up from an old barn and made them. You can read the story, here! ;}
Meaghan says
I absolutely love all your quotes and I am looking forward to putting them up in my home. I was curious on how you have them displayed, is that an oversized frame or did you make that?
ashley @ the handmade home says
Hey Meaghan! We made it. Thanks so much! We actually have detailed how tos for that one in our book, Handmade Walls š you can hit the book link in the column to the right and it will take you there. Hope that helps! š
Tasha Beene says
what color is that frame painted? completely inspired by your home!
kelly says
I LOVE this space! I am currently getting prepared for homeschooling with my two kids (6 and 8) and wondering about Sonlight? Any advice? Thanks!
Lewanna says
It’s super duper awesome! It’s totally unique without being weird. I love the way you did the markers. The word booger totally grosses me out though.
elizabeth primo says
i could spot a sonlight when i see it! your room is very inspiring.
love it
tanya says
I love the wings! Where did you purchase those? Such a beautiful and unique homeschool room. Love the taste and simplicity with some great character. š
ashley @ the handmade home says
Thank you Tanya! I have seen them at Joss + Main, but I got them at a flash sale similar to that, via Decor Steals a while back. I hope that helps!
