Organizing Our Bookshelf

   

     ^ THIS is what happens when life and kids take over. Ahhh! A breeding ground for junk. Admittedly, I love organization but I hate the process of actually organizing (you know . . . cleaning). It's time consuming, the kids mess it up within minutes, someone complains that I threw away something they needed. Overall, it can be a frustrating process. 

    But boredom took hold and I organized our bookshelf anyway. The after results:



    Ta-da (ignore the top, it's late and that's enough organizing for now). So nice, isn't it? Well, for a little while at least. You can see I have a lot of "Making the Grade" books on the bottom. I put the homeschool workbooks and textbooks on the bottom left (I love Usborne books, too). My smaller two kids' books are on the bottom right (a lot of easy readers). My oldest's books are on the top. She loves Junie B. Jones, so she has tons of those. These aren't ALL of our books, but a large number of them. We do a lot of library books to save on costs, but my oldest really wants to make her own collection of books, so we're working on it.
