So, I searched organization and lots of words came up but I'm looking for pretty pictures!   

Can you share some of your favorite blogs w/ photos about organizational tips related to books and homeschooling materials?

I know one of the "go to" favorites is of course Jen (mackfam) and I have been there. But I'm also looking for ideas with less limited space too and I need visuals.   

Thanks!

I have to tell you that I have found so many great, doable ideas for carving out space, and for using space wisely and attractively on Pinterest! I *think* you might have to have a facebook account to sign up, but I'm not sure. (???) One of the reasons I like it so much is that I, like you, really need that visual!!

I'll share one of my favorite blogs with you - The Farm Chicks. Fresh. Inspiring. Pretty. Useful. All my favorite things!!!! There are some great ideas here for storage, organization and making things pretty.

What a perfect week to ask that. I noticed that some of our catholic mommy bloggers are participating in The Heart of the Matters School Room blog hop. There are over 200 entries, with lots of pictures. I'm sure you might find some good ideas in there somewhere. I'll love to hear if you find one you particularly enjoyed .

I second Pinterest -just joined to start collecting decorating ideas, which I have but never remember or get around to doing... it is beautiful! And fun to see friends ideas and styles.

Pear Tree Cottage is written by a hs mum with lots of pretty pictures. Not so much straight hs organisation but beautiful home decorating.

I really love pinterest, I've found lots of great organisation pics, I'll send you my collection. Oh you do have to join fb, but you can just set yourself at lowest setting and no one can find you

I like her style. But being the mom of four boys can I say that I'm impressed she can pull of so much white in her home

Also, Dorian Speed at Scrutinies is collecting photos of schooling spaces here. I'm not sure she has the photo collection up for browsing yet -- at least, I haven't browsed it. But it's worth checking out for sure.
