Can you feel summer yet!? 🙋🏼‍♀️☀️ It’s such a fun time, but sometimes our homes can get a little chaotic with all the activities. Don’t worry, though! Try these tips to keep things running smoothly while you soak up the sun and create lasting family memories.

1️⃣ Store Away Winter Gear: Pack up winter clothes, boots, and heavy blankets to make room for lighter summer items. Use vacuum-sealed bags to save space.

2️⃣ Create a Pool Bag: Keep a dedicated bag packed with towels, sunscreen, and swimwear ready to grab and go for spontaneous pool days.

3️⃣ Set Up a Drink Station: Designate an area for cold beverages and snacks. Use a rolling cart to easily move it indoors or outdoors for summer gatherings.

4️⃣ Organize Outdoor Toys: Use a large, waterproof storage bin to keep outdoor toys like water guns, frisbees, and beach balls in one place and easily accessible.

5️⃣ Prepare a Picnic Kit: Keep a picnic basket packed with essentials like reusable utensils, napkins, a blanket, and a first aid kit for impromptu outdoor meals.

6️⃣ Streamline Your Entryway: Create a summer-friendly entryway with hooks for hats, sunglasses, and lightweight jackets, and a shoe rack for flip-flops and sandals.

7️⃣ Create a BBQ Station: Organize a designated spot for grilling tools, spices, and utensils to make outdoor cooking more efficient and enjoyable.

8️⃣ Optimize Your Garage: Store bikes, sports equipment, and gardening tools on wall-mounted racks or pegboards to maximize floor space and keep items organized.

9️⃣ Refresh Your Pantry: Stock up on summer snacks and BBQ essentials. Use clear containers and labels for easy access to items like chips, marshmallows, and lemonade mix.

🔟 Prepare for Travel: Keep a travel bag packed with travel-sized toiletries, chargers, and a set of summer clothes ready for spontaneous weekend getaways.

These hacks are designed to help you stay organized and make the most of the summer season, keeping everything from pool days to BBQs hassle-free and enjoyable!
