Hello Friends!
Is it just me, or does the start of school make you feel like it’s time for a fresh start? New school supplies, new clothes, new friends – there are so many memories of newness that go alongside starting a new year at school. Even though I have been out of school for a few years, that fresh-start feeling never goes away!
This month’s wallpapers are inspired by the idea of starting over. With a playful quote from Winnie the Pooh, a graphic ABCs wallpaper, and a desktop organizer, these designs will help you start fresh for the fall.
Check out the September 2018 Wallpapers & Folder Icons here!
The color palette for this month’s designs is very autumnal. With an apple red, pumpkin orange, and cocoa brown, these September 2018 Wallpapers & Folder Icons will help you transition into fall in style! I love the idea of using a different folder icon color for each class you are in, or each project you’re working on. Color coding is a great way to stay organized!
Once again, I have created a handful of phone wallpapers that coordinate with this month’s designs. Be sure to head over to my Instagram Story Highlights to snag these new wallpapers. I personally love the cornflower blue calendar!

Unsure how to change your folder icons? Check out my simple video tutorial here. If you want to mix and match these designs with those from previous months, then check out the Decorate Your Desktop page here! There are some fun back-to-school designs from previous years, so check out September 2016 and September 2017 here.
For those of you going back to school this month, I wish you a year of growth, fun, and success! Get organized, stay positive, and treat yourself to some cute school supplies for me!

Hi! I love these! Thank you so much for creating and sharing them!
Have you ever heard of someone changing a desktop icon on a Mac and then not being able to change it for a second time? I changed my icons to some of yours, but I can’t seem to be able to change them again to something new. Just curious.
Thanks again!

Hi Theresa!
I’ve found that sometimes, when there is already a custom icon being used, you have to “cut” out the old (ctrl x) before pasting (ctrl v) in the new one.
Let me know if this works for you! I have had the same problem before too.
Thanks for your support! November Wallpapers coming soon ?

Thanks for getting back to me! It did work, but I had to restart my computer. If I can figure out how to clear the clipboard, then I *think* I should be able to change icons without restarting. I also considered just creating a new folder, moving everything from the old to the new, and then changing the icon. It’s a small hassle for a big reward. I would have never guessed that changing my desktop icons would be so fun! Thanks again!
