As summer winds down, it’s time to prep more than just school supplies—your home could use a refresh, too. Here's how to make your space work smarter for the school year ahead.
Create a Study-Friendly Space
Whether it's the kitchen table or a quiet corner, kids need a place to focus. Consider:
- A kitchen table for group work and easy cleanup
- A bedroom desk for solo study time
- A guest room for quiet, low-traffic focus
- An unused area transformed into a study nook
Design for How You Live
Want your space to work better? A few tweaks go a long way.
- Practice areas: Set up a music or dance space in the basement or garage.
- Furniture fixes: Repurpose old furniture, add risers, or rearrange for better flow.
- Smart solutions: Try folding desks, bunk bed/desk combos, or power strips in overlooked spaces.
Think Long-Term with Upcycling
Choose pieces that grow with your family:
- Minimalist desks can become entryway buffets.
- Storage bins can hold tools or crafts later.
- Shelving can display books now, and décor later.
And don’t forget that parents need work or quiet zones too.
Stay Celebration-Ready
From 100-day parties to end-of-season wins, keep frozen treats on hand and a cozy spot ready for movie night.
With a little planning and creativity, your home can set everyone up for success this school year. You've got this—bring on the bell!
