Favorite Back to School Organizing Supplies (For You!)

Okay mamas, sing it with me… it’s the MOST wonderful TIME of the YEAR…. back to school time! Truly, I enjoyed just about every single minute of the summer with my kids at home (except that one minute when they fought non-stop and I was about to lose my ever-loving mind.)

However, as a former teacher I’ll never ever stop thinking of September as my ‘new year’; a time to start fresh with a blank slate.

As I pick out new school supplies for my kids (which I DO NOT complain about, my friends, because if a teacher wants the pre-sharpened Ticonderoga pencils the least I can do is GET THE PRE-SHARPENED TICONDEROGA PENCILS! AND A PONY AND A SNOWCONE MACHINE! WHATEVER YOU WANT!!!) I also scope out new supplies for myself. There’s something so satisfying about a brand new notebook, some super sharp pencils, or that pen in which the ink flows just right. Plus a cute new tote to put it all inside, right?

Here’s a few back-to-school supplies for YOU, dear mamas. Each number on the graphic corresponds to the link below. Plus we’re trying out a handy new widget to make finding these items even easier, you’ll find a gallery under the ‘Shop the Post’ section.

Here are the sources for each item, the number corresponds to the photo above:

1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16

PSSST: see #16? I have a DIY version in my new book, Organizing Hacks, due out December 5th! Pre-order it now to save yourself a copy. 😉
