New classroom, calmer shelves

I spent Sunday with painter’s tape mapping 10-inch shelf spacing, limited each shelf to five works, matched trays in natural maple, and anchored the room with a 6x9 jute rug; the visual noise dropped and children found work faster. Backstock lives in two labeled canvas bins behind a linen curtain, and a low plant by the entry softens the line — how are you handling drying art without breaking the clean look?
