Get Organized craft day, August 2020

Are you super organized and ready for back to school? If you are, we need to talk! I feel like I am never ready for school to start but it always does…right on time…and the same time every year. Crazy right?!

We all know that Fall means shorter days, cooler temps, new routines, and back to school. For some of us it looks a little different this year. I will be the first to say that I love summer with all the warm days and fun activities we get to participate in, but I do enjoy getting back to routines.

My routines look a LOT different this year. How about you?

First off, it’s been FOREVER since we have had the regular school routine, I can barely remember what it’s like. 🙂
Secondly, what will school look like this year? Some are homeschooling, some have chosen distance learning, while others are braving it and sending the kids back. It will be different for all of us.

No matter what your Fall experience is going to look like, let’s get you organized! Join us for our Get Organized craft day! (Get Organized items are at the end of the post. Be sure to scroll down to the bottom so you don’t miss out!)
