3 Ways to Store Your Summer Gear

The summer is coming to an end. In just a few weeks the weather will be cooling off and the leaves will begin changing colors. Before they do, however, it’s important to get organized. Switching out your summer gear for the oncoming autumn season can be challenging when it comes to storage space. Fortunately, we’ve created a short list of creative storing ideas to help you get started.

Curtains. Hide the clutter and still use your storage space with a colorful curtain. A colorful curtain hanging around a table or small set of shelves will add pizzazz to your home, while keeping it looking fresh and organized.

The Ottoman. Keep your house clean and organized by storing your summer gear in plain sight. Using a storage Ottoman, like one from Home Decor Outlets, will keep your summer gear safe, stored, and in an easily accessible place.

Storage Bed. A comfortable place to sleep and a comfortable place to store your things. If you have a bed frame with drawers and shelves, consider storing your summer gear here. Easily accessible, yet out of sight, a storage bed system is perfect for storing off season clothes.

Summer is coming to an end, which means autumn is just around the corner. Organize the chaos of the changing seasons with a few of our clever storage ideas. And when it comes time to buy extra storage and furniture, think Home Decor Outlets.

Preparing for the School Year

August is coming to an end. In just a few weeks summer will be over and children all over the nation will be heading back-to-school. Unfortunately, as all parents know, with new school years often comes new organization challenges. To help you out, we’ve put together a few tips to get you ready and organized!

Get Organized

1. Ease Into It. Drastic changes can be tough, especially for young children. When preparing for a new school year, it’s a good idea to ease into it. Take the last two weeks of summer to gradually reintroduce school year routines such as bedtimes, wake up times, and eating habits.

2. Calendar. Before the school year begins, do yourself a favor and create a central calendar. No matter the number of children you have going back-to-school, a large central calendar, with plenty of room to write, will help calm the chaos of the new school year and keep you and your family organized.

3. Clothes. Kids seem to never stop growing! Fortunately, plenty of stores have back-to-school sales. Get ahead of school shopping by being prepared with a list of exactly what you need. Once those new school year clothes are bought,  organize the summer clothes in your home by storing them in an ottoman or a storage bed.

4. Papers. Oftentimes schools will require documentation including last year’s report cards, proof of medical check ups, or even immunization shots in order for your child to start the school year. Ensure your child is prepared by calling the school or visiting the website to learn what they require before the year starts. Once you’ve obtained the correct information, make a list of what you’ll need documents you’ll need and post it somewhere in your home where you’ll see it often, such as the fridge.

5. Practice Run. A day or two before the first day of school, try a practice run. Wake up your kids when they’ll need to get up during the school. Prepare yourself for work while helping prepare your children for school. Doing this will make sure you and your child are organized and ready for the first day of school!

Back-to-school is just around the corner and it’s important to be prepared. Counteract the chaos of back-to-school with our back-to-school tips for organization! And when it comes time to organize your home and buy back-to-school furniture, visit Home Decor Outlets here: http://bit.ly/Vq0Do7
