Our Schoolroom Part 1

Right after the TLT birthday party in May, I got busy on the loop and I posted a request for everyone's suggestions for things that they couldn't live without in their schoolroom and what they thought was a waste of time. Overwhelmingly, everyone said "you need bookshelves!" Well, this post and the next one are going to be pictures of how our schoolroom ended up, thanks to your suggestions. Took me a while to get it the way I wanted it, but now we love it.

Thought I'd start with a bit of artwork that we have displayed. Can you tell we're studying bugs?


the top one is Littlebit, and the bottom one Big Brother----



I have lots of book shelves, and the green bins are full of art supplies. The pillow is for lounging on the floor at reading time. I also have nails along the top edge of the bookshelf and I hang my white board there. When it's not in use, it goes beind the bookshelf.


Don't blink----the desks are actually clean!



Just because I couldn't fit all my pics in here, there will be a part 2 to this post.

Thank you, thank you, thank you all for your wonderful suggestions!

Sharon, it looks wonderful! I'm really impressed. You've got a ton of stuff in there but it doesn't look crowded or overwhelming. And I love the art, even though it freaks me out a little bit.
