Who Remembers Home Economics?

I am working on the part of my business I call “Purpose-Driven Journey”. I have been working on creating curriculum for teaching Life-Skills to people of the ages of Cradle-to-Treasure. I want to specialize with individuals that live their lives under the umbrella of Asperger’s and Autism.

So, in my research in the last few months, I kept getting directed to these vintage home economics films. Some of them I had a hard time witnessing the sexism, Some examples; it talks to the girls about how they should obey their husbands when the men come home tired and hungry. A couple of them spoke about the kitchen duties are usually the women’s household chore. . . . Chore?!?

My curriculum is non-gender specific

The video I posted today – tell me if you don’t recognize that narrator voice!?! And, seriously some of them, I caught myself snoozing at my own desk a few weeks ago. Most of these films needed some “Jazzing-up” but that was back in the days when school was to be serious . . . Not Fun!

My curriculum is fun ~ lots of music, audio and visual learning

Being a former teacher in a public school, there is a real need to bring back Home Economics or at least teach life-skill lessons as part of the curriculum. As a professional organizer and coach I have found myself teaching women that are were on national news media globally how to use their washer and dryer, holding Washer 101 mini classes in their laundry rooms . . . I’m not kidding!

About, ten years into my organizing and cleaning business I was having more of those mini classes with my clients. My mother taught me how to do the laundry when I could reach the knobs – she held class in front of the machines about fabric color separation, WHEN to use bleach, when NOT to use bleach, best time to add the fabric softener and so on. It’s the life lessons she taught us that helped manage the home when she was at work or during our many military-moves across country.

It’s a lifestyle that can be achieved when you have the right lessons and planning.

What Mood Is Your Home In?

This is a Mood Board

I use them to visualize what a home can look like when working on a Redesign Project. The mood board above is for our new place my husband and I found this weekend. We have had pictures (images) collected of what we want our new home to feel like. Stay with us to see how we will use these images to create a home that fits our lifestyle.

If you need help to get started with a project, start with a mood board. It helps when you’re making several trips to Homedepot, Lowes, fabric store, furniture store, looking at window treatments. This is the best way to communicate to people what your vision is for your new space. It’s a true time & money saver.

If you need help designing a mood board – please reach out to us, we would be more than happy to help you create a great communication tool for your next project.

Music Monday

Take some time this afternoon and lose yourself in the music. The world is crazy out there right now, and we need to take care of mental health as much as our physical health. I have always found refuge in music . . . it gets me through the rough spots of life.
