I've been getting some wonderful emails from people who have created writing spaces for their children after reading about ours.
And all I can say is: Wow! When you guys get an idea, you sure do amazing things with it. Don't you agree?
Can you believe the sensational little writing center that Katherine Marie created for her kids? I'm swooning over the adorable peek-a-boo chalkboard, the vintage (yes, vintage!) chalkboards, the bow-embellished glass jars, and the clothes-pinned labels. Every detail just blows me away. You can see more of her breathtaking photographs (of this project and so many others) on her blog.
Don't you just love the writing corner that Erika designed for her kids? It features an alphabet garland, over-sized wood letters (note to self: must. have. these), ABC beads, and stamps galore. Visit Erika's blog for more pictures and design ideas.And the always-inspiring Mariah from Playful Learning designed an atelier for her girls that looks so sun-drenched and well-stocked that I wouldn't be surprised if it was the most popular room in the house. I know I could spend all day, every day in a room like this! My favorite part of this room? Why the name, of course! Who could help but be creative in a room called an atelier? (Read more about this room and the idea behind it on Mariah's blog).
I am just so excited about all of the young writer's workshops happening out there! If you have put a little something like this together, even on a smaller scale, please share. Put a link in the comments, or email me with a picture that I can post, so we can all take a peek.
And thanks Katherine Marie, Erika, and Mariah for sharing your pictures and ideas. It's just too cool for me to hear that our space inspired you. The truth is, your interpretations of the young writer's workshop have inspired me so much.
What do you guys think?
