Tip Junkie is all about inspiration and showing off creative women through their ideas and products.  Where as my other blog, Executive Homemaker is all about free files.  Someone has already done the work creating it – you get to print it out!

Being an Executive Homemaker is about organizing your life so you can get to the fun things about being a mother, wife, and woman. You’ll find many of the same categories as Tip Junkie, but instead of inspiration, you’ll find the actual project to make yourself.

Here are some of the most popular posts on Executive Homemaker:

• Executive Homemaker Binder (organizing planner)
• Transformer Birthday Party and Transformer Bingo
• Star Wars Birthday Party and Jedi Academy Invitation
• Indiana Jones Birthday Party
• Chore Chart Ticket System
• Green Day Memory (for St. Patrick’s Day)
• Don’t Eat Pete (fabulous and easy game for kids)
• Special Days Booklet (great for play dates and Spring Break for younger kids)

To make EH even better, I’ve enlisted several fabulous graphic designers to contribute and give you even more free files.  These ladies are incredibly talented and I feel honored that they will be apart of the EH team.  {{squeal in delight}}

Meet Janna Wilson, country girl, graphic artist, mama to three crazy-cute kiddos, wife to Scott, stitcher, jewelry maker, dreamer, wannabe painter, Sunday school teacher, and lover of ALL THINGS crafty!

Also meet Emily who lives in the recreational state of Idaho with her gorgeous husband and two kiddos. Her hubby is currently in the final semester of his graduate program and she gets to stay home and enjoy Buster “J” and Lady “P.”

Although Emily’s area of expertise is graphic design, she loves to sew, crochet, doodle, play, and anything else that gives her a creative outlet. where she gets to share ideas with others and make strangers her friends. Stop by for a visit!

These are some of my favorite posts of Emily’s:

• Pottery Barn Chalkboard Platter tutorial
