As summer approaches, you’re probably starting to feel excited about all of the activities your family will get to enjoy together. Unfortunately, many of those outdoor activities come with tools and supplies that take up a significant amount of space. At Closet World, we’re passionate about helping families stay organized in order to maximize potential fun. Check out these tips from our expert closet organizers:
Create Beach Storage
Beach days are a beloved summer activity. However, the clothing and accessories that accompany these trips tend to take up a lot of space. From swimsuits to towels, sand toys to sun hats, families are often looking for places to stow these items where they won’t be in the way. At Closet World, we recommend installing an array of cabinets and cubbies to keep beach and pool products out of the way. Wall hooks are great for keeping wetsuits and towels off the floor or organizing items like hats and goggles. Finally, homeowners with pools should consider an outdoor storage bench. Not only does this piece provide much-needed storage, but it also offers seating for those who need a break from swimming.
Work on Your Work Areas
Of course, summer isn’t just for relaxing by the pool with a fruity beverage. Many people use warm weather as an opportunity to engage in outdoor hobbies like gardening or home repair. If you plan to spend the summer with your hands in the dirt, consider giving your storage shed a makeover that allows for more working space. For example, you might want to install cabinets and drawers for stowing soil, mulch, fertilizers, tools, and other supplies. Need a place to store long-handled tools like rakes? Wall hooks are helpful for keeping these items off the ground and out of the way of kids and pets. If you do have children, think about installing some ground-based storage for items that are safe for them to use. That way they can help out with the gardening.
Organize Your Garage
When was the last time you took a good, long look at your garage? Summer is a great time to sort through this space and identify those items you no longer need. These pieces include seasonal items like pool toys and Christmas decorations and items that you simply no longer use. For example, you can probably ditch those spare cans of paint you used on your bedroom. Once you’ve identified which items deserve the heave-ho, consider holding a yard sale to sell them for some extra cash.
