Do you find that afternoons seem to get more and more hectic?  Between after school activities, cooking dinner, and making sure our children are doing well, we could all use a little organization when it comes to homework.  

I am so excited to share this vintage-style painted homework caddy with you so at the  very least, you won't be searching around the house for school supplies! 

Items Needed:

• Wood Caddy
• Stickers Or Vinyl Lettering

Instructions:

I picked up this adorable weathered crate on clearance at a local department store and knew if would be perfect for our homework station.  I loved the design, but we need all the help we can get to bring on the smiles during homework time, so I wanted to add a punchy orange color... I used the Poppy from Americana's multi-surface Satin collection. 

I really wanted to keep the vintage look of the crate, so I cute the word "homework" out of vinyl on my Cricut machine.  You can also use stickers.

Now... just paint a few coats of the orange on the outer pieces of wood. Let dry, and remove vinyl letters.  So easy!
