Handmade at the Farm


• Wednesday, July 23, 2008 - Home Keeping Binder

Posted in On the Porch
I'm working on my "home management binder" (aka...control journal, house keeping journal, etc, etc.)  I found a website dedicated to this and thought I would share it.

www.homemanagementbinder.com

Now, if you google home management binder you will come up with tons more information.  Truly, one could spend all day reading about binders, crafting the perfect binder, etc.   I have decided to just work on one small piece of mine at a time.  I'm trying hard not to spend lots of time planning to clean and no time actually cleaning...lol.  Today, I made a front cover for it, using a pretty picture from www.allposters.com.  I also made a basic master schedule of how our day will look when we begin homeschooling (it still needs a lot of tweaking, but at least I have a format).  I've done this in the past, only I wrote it on my dry erase board.  Gradually little fingers would come by and create new art or erase who was supposed to be doing spelling while someone else was doing math.  Now, I have that sheet safely tucked into a page protector out of reach of little fingers.  If my binder starts to look pretty then I'll be sure and post a pic.  Right now, it is just "plain Jane" with a few functional sheets.


Blessings,
Mrs. P
