Stuck in the Middle With You: Tips for Working at Home with a Child
Dad and Son working together on computers
Working at home with your kids can sound like the best of both worlds, but sometimes it feels like the worst of both. Work time can be filled with interruptions and you can't give your child your full attention. I work in the office a few days a week and the rest of the time at home with my nearly 3-year-old. Here are a few things that have helped me stay sane, get work done and still have fun with my son:
 
 
Hot Nursery Tour
Frances May's Nursery
"Distinctively sweet, luxurious, beautiful and somewhat quirky" is how Kathryn, a.k.a Lady Bird, describes the bespoke quilts she sews for her business, Maggie and Sparrow. It's no surprise, then, that the nursery she created for her most recent baby bird, Frances, has the same qualities.

Cavallini Wrapping Paper as Decor
I'm still determined to make a decoupaged map letter for my son  like Francine did and I've been poking around used bookstores for a great old map. I've found some, but they were on the musty side and the colors were too faded for my taste. Then I remembered that Cavallini makes some great map wrapping paper which further reminded me how great (and cheap!) their wrapping paper is for framing as art.
