Back To School Organizing Tips & Ideas

by Home Style Furniture

Back-to-school is for many of us synonym of supplies, lunch, home works, mess and lunch again! When this time of the year is coming, we start to stress, to be tense and we are trying to be organized (which is not that easy sometimes!). Here are some organizing tips to help everyone being more relaxed at the back-to-school:

Make a space for children’s backpacks

In the lobby or anywhere else, take time to make an exclusive space to put the backpacks when child come back from school. It could be a storage bench, a wall shelf with hooks, a big basket or a large storage box.

Create a study area

To facilitate the productivity and reduce the homework time a study area is a must. Ideally, it should be a quiet place without any source of distraction like TV, video games, tablets, cell phone or any toy. The room could be filled with bookcases, a bench and/or chair, a work desk and maybe comfortable furniture where to read and study like a small sofa or a recliner.

Prepare in advance

To save time and avoid stress in the morning, preparing in advance is a good thing! The day before or even during the week-end, we can prepare lunches, sport clothes and organize backpacks for the upcoming week.

Choose outfits the night before

If we are still lacking time in the morning, choosing the outfits the night before could make the difference!

How To Make A Small Living Room Seems Bigger

by Home Style Furniture

If you want to make a room seems bigger, here are 4 simple tips for you:

1- Optimization, optimization and… optimization!

Using multifunctional furniture gives you the possibility to keep magazines, decorative pillows, seasonal accent decor and other things that belong in the living room.

2- Use mirrors!

The secret is that mirrors reflect light and make the room seem bigger because every corner is visible. The most effective way to make this magic trick work is to use mirrors that run from the floor to the ceiling!

3- Let the light in!

A dark room always seems smaller than it really is, no matter the size! That’s why it’s even more important to have as much light as we can in a small room. To do so, don’t hide any windows with big furniture or curtains that prevent the light from getting in.

4- Think tiny and vertical!

Large furniture often takes too much place in a room and constrains us to have less furniture. A good way to fill a small room with more than one or two furniture pieces is to use tiny and vertical ones!
