Maker Monday: Back to School

We've been seeing school supplies in the stores since July.  I'm sure many took advantage of Ohio's tax free holiday this past weekend to purchase school supplies and freshen up our wardrobe.  Class lists and bus routes are coming soon (if they're not here already).

It's just about time for Back to School!

Some of us have a few weeks before school actually starts so today on our blog we'll share some DIY school supplies that you would make with things you probably already have around the house.  Click on the links for directions.

Never lose your place when reading with these page corner bookmarks.
