Snowmen with no snow!I loving Pintrest as I talked about here and I wanted to share this super cute snow man idea. My kids have been so devastated by the lack of snow and near spring like weather. They actually cried the morning they woke up and the one day snow was melting! Poor kiddos! So when I found this, I was so excited. Now to go through my junk stuff I’m saving just for such projects and hope I have enough white lids!! Maybe I’ll see what I can find through Freecycle too. She has a ton of cute recycle drafts using bottle caps. I am hoping to do a few of them for our winter unit and handicrafts. This may not be a traditional Charlotte Mason handcraft, but making beautiful and cute things out of trash has to have value in it somewhere!

Pintrest
There is also a search function on Pintrest. I have searched for gluten recipes and homeschool ideas and some many awesome crafts- that I HAVE ACTUALLY done!! It has also been a great place to reconnect with old friends. It has been really fun.
Pintrest has also helped me to be ORGANIZED!!(always a bonus for busy moms!). I can find some website on line I want to use and instead of leaving the tab open and hoping I can do it before I forget and leave the window open for hours(and days and weeks and nearly crash the computer) I just pin it in the specific folder I like and it’s always there when I need it!
It’s been awesome for homeschooling ideas I find! I have actually FOLLOWED through(big problem of mine) on quite a bit of things because I know where to find it. I totally recommend it! If you would like an invite just let me know and I’ll send you one! For me this is working really well with my New Years Resolution to be more organized in life and thought and my use of Mind Organization for Moms. Thought I would share!
