At the beginning of each homeschooling year, when welcoming new members & leaders in the homeschooling support group,
THA, I endeavor to remember to show them our supplies.

This metal monster has housed our crafty, organizational & PE stuff since it was donated for our co-op the '98-'99 school year. Many of the craft supplies are that old.
Early this past school year, when showing the innards of the cabinet & mentioning that it needed straightening, Peggy volunteered to help!

Since my kids have been at 4-H Camp this week, we tackled it yesterday. Peggy is diligently creating an inventory
(What a great idea! Why did I never think of that? - I actually think because I have no laptop. That makes a good reason to go shopping. Yes? ) to make available to group leaders this coming year. On the table is only part of the cabinet's guts since we'd already repacked 2 shelves: paper goods & painting.

Her kids were great! Watching a couple library DVDs and drawing a couple of pictures kept them busy most of the time we were busy.
TADA!
That's a cabinet that purrs invitingly, "Come use my supplies. They are easy to find. You know you want to paint and make artsy things!"
Don't '
cha feel ready for school to start now??
Nah, me neither!
