FED UP OF LIVING IN CHAOS?

On our theme of supporting good people we know, we’d like to give a big “thumbs up” to Shelley Davies from Details Modern Order. Shelley is the kind of angel that will come to your house and help you sort through the chaos that we all create, but are too busy to organize. If some people have “the touch” then Shelley has it in bucket loads, somehow she can create beauty out of even the most awkward spaces. She’s been written up lots in the media and has been known to have organised some local celebrities too. Here are some before and after pictures of a cupboard that she organised. Shelley can be found at  www.detailsmodernorder.com

YOUR KID’S FINANCIAL LITERACY

I’m starting a thread here in the blog on other businesses that we at Notch Hill endorse because they have great philosophies, have amazing products or are just in general super cool people.

So it is appropriate that the first company seems to fit into all these categories.

Four Quarters Finance seem to come from similar roots to us here at Notch Hill. They believe in the concept of play being a powerful way to teach kids. Like us they are also passionate about literacy, but in their case they are passionate about financial literacy. They have 3 financial literacy packs designed for different age groups. I love the idea of teaching kids from an early age that it is important to save a portion of their money for themselves and a portion of their money to give away.

Check out their website at www.fourquartersfinance.com you will also find them at the BC Home School Conference in early June.
