Printable Chore Chart For Kids
As a parent, I struggle daily to get my kids to help out around the house. I've tried a lot of methods, and have seen a lot of fancy chore charts. My favorite thing about this one from Lisa of ModEco Kids is the simple statement at the top of the chart: This is how I contribute to my family. It's such a great way to turn the typical parental "nagging" into the true show of how we can all work together. Nice!

Fredda Perkins' Craft Cottage
Last spring, I introduced you to Jennifer Perkins' uber-crafty mom, Fredda, in our Mother's Day special series. Jennifer is spending some time at her mom's this week, and shared pictures of Fredda's delightful (and envy-worthy) craft cottage. I can only imagine what fun it is to create in such an inspirational space! Read more about the cottage and see more pictures over on Jen's blog.

Craft Room on a Cart
When crafts were just a hobby, I often found myself in the midst of complete chaos. Wool and fabric and glitter and glue sticks were strewn everywhere. And I liked it that way! I have always found a tremendous amount of inspiration in the crazy mess of supplies. But now crafting is my career and I have deadlines to meet. I can no longer afford to spend an hour looking for my scissors.
I used to live in a two-bedroom house; one bedroom was for sleeping, and the other was for crafting. I had an entire room just for my projects, and it was a luxury that I totally abused. Everything was everywhere. When I was working on my book, Feltique, there was wool roving in piles on the floor, sweaters in scraps, and the scissors were buried beneath it all.
A year ago, I moved into a new place. The whole house is just 730 square feet. There's hardly room for my bed in the single bedroom, let alone a dedicated space just for crafting. I worried that if I had to keep everything put away, my creativity would suffer. Instead, being forced into organization against my will was the best thing that ever happened.
