Homeschool is cool! So cool it deserves a promotion!!!





Yes, we are a homeschooling family. I'm not going to lie - while it is wonderful, it also has it's share of difficulties. But then, so does just about anything worthwhile. For all the stresses, homeschooling is immensely rewarding and wonderful. So, this months blog post is celebrating homeschoolers everywhere. I hope these designs make you feel honored for the hard work that you do. I hope they uplift and encourage on those dark dreary days. Let's face it - spring break and summer vacation can also mean work and more work. But being entrusted with educating our children is a privilege that we bear with honor and gratitude ...well ...on MOST days, anyway. LOL!

Check back in a few days or so. I plan to add to this collection. And here is this month's promotion - homeschoolers and fans of homeschooling, post here to let me know what you think of my new designs, and I will enter you in this months drawing for one of these fabulous designs, worth $25, in your choice of available colors! You can keep it or give it to a friend who homeschools. Also, add yourself as a follower to my blog, and you will get a 2nd entry. For a 3rd entry, link to my blog in your blog. Finally, blog about the importance of visual inspiration in your homeschool, and you will get a 4th entry into the drawing. That's a total of 4 entries in this fabulous drawing. To be eligible for all 4 entries, please make sure to post back here with a link to your blog. Entries received by March 31st are eligible. I will randomly draw a name on April 2nd, so stay tuned for the winning announcement. (Any winner outside of the continental US or Canada will need to pay actual USPS shipping charges, via Paypal.)

Enjoy and get blogging! And remember to click at the left and visit my Etsy shop, PopVinylStudio. If you see something you like, let me know. And if you'd like something custom made, I'm your girl!

I think those are great!! IF we decide to homeschool, I think that first one would ROCK on our walls.

I was gonna put your link in my blog anyway, because I think your stuff is so beautiful! :-) Off to show you to our homeschooling friends.

MamaBear said...

Oh, yeah, I meant to tell you that we are calling our group "Home Sweet Homeschool". :-)

This is awesome! We've been homeschooling for 6 years, and have just been renovating and making ourselves a wonderful school room for me and the girls. I love both of the logos you've come up with. I love the "Sweet" one and my 3 girls would be after that, but think it's equally important for the children see such important traits such as "diligence," "excellence," and "integrity" set before them each day.

I'm also a follower of your blog. I'm way new to blogging, and haven't ventured into that just yet (still have to get my blog site set up so it's functional for me), so no linky on my blog just yet.

That is wonderful, Tabitha! Thank you for the nice comments and for signing up to follow my blog. Feel free to pass the link along to any homeschooling friends or family. And good luck in the drawing!

Hello, I do really think these are great! I have a couple other homeschooling military spouse friends that can't put anything permanent on their walls as well. If I win it will be a hard decision between keeping it for myself and gifting it to one of them with older "students." I don't have a blog yet. Good luck ladies and again Tish these are great!!

Thanks so much, Jessica! I just love to design things that encourage, uplift, and inspire. I think that is especially important in our families, and as homeschoolers. Good luck, mama!
