New Theme

It seems like there is never any rest for me.  I am struggling with the balance between Schoolgirl Style and my regular, day-to-day job of teaching.  I want to put my all into both, but sometimes I start feeling a little burned out.  I so want to relax this vacation and get some projects finished […]

It seems like there is never any rest for me.  I am struggling with the balance between Schoolgirl Style and my regular, day-to-day job of teaching.  I want to put my all into both, but sometimes I start feeling a little burned out.  I so want to relax this vacation and get some projects finished around the house, but I know this would be the perfect time to get another theme styled since I don’t have to go to school this week.

So…here I am.  The house is a mess with the zillion new Christmas toys scattered everywhere.  We are on a mission to get our bathroom remodeled over the break and I decided to do another theme in the middle of it all!  Am I CRAZY?!?!  YES!  How am I going to get all of this done?!?  Well, in true “Melanie” style, I will freak out, complain, worry, and make my poor husband crazy over our break…but, it WILL get done.

Off I go to work as I transform my house from my Christmas Wonderland to a super cool and fun classroom theme!  Should I tell you what it is?  Gosh, I HATE keeping secrets, but I want all of you to be surprised!  So, hang tight, Schoolgirl Style followers…you will see it very soon!

Off I go to start my madness!  Wish me luck!

Melanie

Share the Style!
