Treat Yourself to 8 FREE Online Classes This Mother’s Day
As a mom, you’ve worked hard at this kid-wrangling game. You’re on duty every day plus overtime, and finally a day celebrating YOU and only you has come around. While Mother’s Day is usually all about flowers and breakfast in bed, do a little something extra for yourself this year and take an hour to learn a new creative skill for FREE. We’ve partnered with Acer to bring you eight free online classes until 5/17/2017, covering everything from illustration to interior design, so you can try your hand at a hobby you’ve always wanted to explore (but let’s be real: Life got in the way). We’re firm believers in investing an hour in yourself in order to be the best you possible. Because part of taking care of them is taking care of YOU.
So grab a comfy seat, your class supplies, and a speedy Acer laptop to play your class video and dive into a new creative subject. Use your laptop like a tablet and get started with one of the eight classes below!
1. How to Boost Your Productivity: Ever feel overwhelmed by your to-do list? Make the most of your time and learn the secret to being your most productive self, from handling the day-to-day to starting up a side project.
2. Color + Pattern for Interior Design: Dreaming of a pin-worthy living room? Uh yeah, so are we. Learn the tricks of the design trade and how to put your personality into your home decor.
