Attempting organization

The last few weeks I've been pretty consumed with getting our ward's super saturday ready, but I had a project that I had to get done, so I squeezed it in.


I don't know how you guys (especially you, Elizabeth) do it.  With school starting, there are so many papers, notes, homework, book orders, etc., etc. coming home-and I just have 2 in school!
I had to get more organized!
I decide to get some folders and bins for some of their work, and to make these clipboards to hold their weekly papers (due each Friday).  It was a quick project, and I thought they turned out pretty cute.

So great--these are really cute. You've inspired me as to what to do with my own Kindergartener . . .
By the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Those are so darling, Mary!! I know...I am drowing in a sea of papers. It is daunting. Good work, you.

Mary, those are adorable! It is crazy trying to keep everyone organized, but you do what you got to do. I sit down right after school and go through all the backpacks and fill out all the mommy paper work right then and reload backpacks. If I put it aside I will never find time for it later.

Sometimes I feel like organization is not in my vocabulary. Yikes. I am a big piler, much to the chagrin of my hubby :) so the clipboard idea is awesome. Yours turned out really cute too. Are you going to post what you are doing for Super Saturday stuff? Just curious.

Love it Mary. I need to try your idea. I am still going through their piles from last school year to put them in their long term bins. That was the goal all summer but now I feel inspired to do it THIS weekend and move on to this year!
