A little bit of back to school calendar organization brilliance
It only took my husband a good three months to install our large wall calendar system in the kitchen. And I won't even tell you how much it cost. Ouch. Too bad I didn't know about Wall Pops, whose awesome wall decals we featured in our back to school shopping guide, and would have saved me a whole lot of time and money.   If you're not familiar with the Wall Pops wall decal calendar sets, then allow me to introduce you to their awesomeness. These pretty decals are actually dry-erase calendars that are stuck to your wall--kitchen, office, wherever you want--and then easily removed, repositioned, and even reused. And don't worry, no sticky residue or marks on your walls.Track up to four months with their calendar sets, turning September into January when your'e done with it. Or hang one each in the kids' rooms to keep them organized too. The whole set starts at just $20.99. They also sell simple but very pretty dry erase boards designed by Jonathan Adler and others, should you be a free-spirit, avoiding the constraints of by awful man-made constructs like dates and weeks.   I can't think of a better way to organize your schedule affordably, attractively, and without holes in your walls.    You can purchase the wall decal calendar sets at Wall Pops.
