Backpacks, jackets and shoes, oh my! It’s tempting to feel like your house is being overrun with clutter once the back-to-school shuffle really gets going. Luckily, teachers figured out this solution years ago — and @ashtonsedita has brought it to life. This easy DIY peg rack will give everything a home, and it doubles as a lesson in responsibility for the kids. Try giving them each an assigned peg or space for their things. Mary Poppins would be pretty darn pleased.  Download the plans below.

Sometimes, getting kids to do their homework is about finding the right spot for them. Some work best at the kitchen table, while others need a dedicated space that’s theirs alone.

Bonus: it doubles as a hiding spot when you need a few minutes alone to read, answer emails or just take a moment for yourself! Download the plans for each project below.
