Homeschool organizing with Binders

I have been super busy re-doing my homeschool shelf.  My girls store most of their homeschool items on shelves in their rooms. So I only have their tests and answer keys to store on my shelf It is a good thing too because I have an over flowing shelf with just the 2 boys. The shelf is at the end of the hall so my goal is to make it pretty so it is not such an eye sore.  This is a major work in progress and might get a major move to our garage that we have considered turning into a school/play/guest room. So anyhoo, here is what I have so far.

Binders color coded by subject. I have only done Science, Literature, History, Geography and Grammar. I have a few more subjects to get into folders but alas, I ran out of my stash of Better Binders(thank you Toni from A Bowl Full of Lemons for the recommendation) from Staples. I have made my list and have checked it twice for my shopping trip tomorrow. I will eventually have each binder next to the books that go along with the subject.

File boxes hiding lots of paperwork and answer keys, oh and all the junk I didn’t feel like going through hehe. There is also “some” of the books that we are using this year…..I think a few are still hiding in the boxes I have yet to unpack.

I figure that I will have it exactly how I want it just in time for school to end. But just think, I now have a head start on organizing the new school year……cause I’m a glass half full type of gal!
