A New Art Area

I’m always inspired by what Kylie sets up for her boys in their Montessori home, but I never feel like I have the time, space, or energy to follow suit!

But I have wanted to have a dedicated art area for a while. We do have a table in the boys’ room, which is a good area for drawing and coloring, but I wanted them to have access to other supplies. However, I didn’t necessarily want those supplies to be in their room (because they frequently play in there first thing in the morning unsupervised).

Kylie’s recent post about having an art table in the main area made a ton of sense, but it doesn’t match up with the layout of our house.

So I decided to turn one of our shelves into an art area by purchasing:

• Tempera paint
• A light box
• A paper holder
• A knitting fork
