Daily Life

BETTER WORLD BOOKS
My go-to alternative to Amazon when it comes to books, especially used ones.

LIBRARY EXTENSION
This PC browser extension checks the availability of books and e-books from your local library. Great for previewing books you’re considering purchasing.

SALLY’S BAKING ADDICTION
My go-to for all things baking. I’ve made too many of her recipes.

NOTION
Productivity software to think, plan, create. A bit of learning curve for my Gen X tech skills, but I’m determined to harness the power of their databases to bring order to the various aspects of my life.

SCRIBD
A subscription-based reading service available online and as an app for Android and iOS that I could not love more. It’s probably the best $8.99 I spend each month.

Creative Life

AUSTIN KLEON
His series of books, Steal Like an Artist, Show Your Work, and Keep Going, are the creative nudge and encouragement we all need. His newsletter is a fave.

BARDOT BRUSH
My favorite site for Procreate brushes sets and Lisa Bardot has TONS of tutorials on her site & on YouTube.

CREATIVEBUG
Lots of craft-based classes like sewing, crocheting, knitting, plus drawing, painting, food-related, home decor, and jewelry making.

DICK BLICK
My favorite art store to wander around and their catalog has everything!

SKILLSHARE
Great for drawing, painting, Procreate, digital art, marketing, writing classes, and more.

Homeschool Life

BRAVE WRITER
Writing classes, programs, and coaching for home educators. Julie Bogart, the founder, is my homeschool hero, and her book, The Brave Learner, is a MUST READ.

KHAN ACADEMY
We use this for math, but there are so many other free courses available on there. If you can, consider donating to support this amazing site.

MYSTERY SCIENCE
Engaging science curriculum and lessons for a elementary school age kiddos. Reasonably priced and easy to follow, if you have access to a printer and basic supplies around the house, you’re set!
