More Homeschool Room Ideas

I just wanted to show some more homeschool room ideas that I have collected over the last few months. If you want to see the first two posts I wrote showing other ideas, go here and here.


The different fonts and sizes of all these letters is so cool!


I LOVE this wall! The peg boards, chalkboard and bulletin board mixture is just perfect and the color is AWESOME! Oh and the cabinets....LOVE them!



I would love to have something like this for each of the kids. I can just see both long walls lined with storage and desk tops like this one!


To save on cost of the cubbies, these cool shelves would work just fine! The bars under the shelves are towel bars...how thrifty is that!


I love the burlap over the bulletin board along with the nail heads. Super classy. I will have to do this over my desk for sure!!!

Inspiration for B's Bathroom

I am still planning to paint the cabinet this blue color! I just LOVE it!


Decor




Light fixtures

I would even love to find a wooden paddle to hang on the wall!



This is a picture I took over on the coast of Georgia. I may even print and frame it to put in there too.


I have lots of ideas...and I just can't wait to get started!!!!

Hydrangeas


I LOVE Hydrangeas and was so happy to have a nice mature bush in the front corner of the yard
here at the rental house.


We have enjoyed cutting the blooms and placing them around the house. Doesn't the house just feel so much more alive with fresh flowers scattered about?


The color variations are so beautiful!




So what is your favorite flower?

Garden Inspiration

I thought I would show some inspiration pictures of things outside that I want to incorporate in the beautification of the house.

I would love to add a small wooden porch on the side of Scot's garage/shed.

I love this entry. I want our side porch (which will be used a lot!) to look this gorgeous!

I love this white fence. This is definitely at the top of my wish list for the future!


and this porch...so summery (and romantic!)




Isn't this outside sink cool???  Great for the kids to be able to use without having to come inside to clean up
and also a great potting sink!

Inspiration for E's Room

E has known from the beginning that she wants to use the colors brown and lime green in her room. We have been searching for some inspiration to make this a more sophisticated room for my pre-teen!

Check out the lime green bed! It is definitely makes a statement.



Green Headboard with brown and white bedding.


She wants lime green walls. I found this on  the PB Teen website it is called Chic Lime by Benjamin Moore

pic from Pottery Barn Teen 


She also likes the idea of a Brown accent wall.


I am not sure yet which way  we will go regarding the paint. I want to wait and see how much light she will be getting through her window.

How cute is this pillow.

We found a light like this one for $5.00. We just need some crystals for it!


She has always wanted a window seat in her room.  This is something that we will plan for and add to her room later.

I like the idea of open shelves with some closed storage on the bottom.


So what do you think? Does it have the making of a sophisticated pre-teen's room?
