Friday Eye Candy: Organize Your Summer

It’s Friday! It’s Friday! My children were in a science camp all this week and loved it. It sparked their curiosity and so I picked up a science experiment book in the dollar section of Target. We have been doing one a day. I am trying to strike the balance between lounging, swimming, arguing, reading, and learning. I call it the Summer Shuffle! Speaking of summer, I have a new ideabook on Houzz filled with my favorite coastal finds if you want to check it out.  I also rounded up some fun and inspiring summer organization tips for this rendition of Friday Eye Candy. Enjoy! ………………..numbered entry photo johnny miller via martha stewart I love this idea. I can’t tell you how many times I have heard, “Mommy, where are my flip flops?” this summer!

I like this. click for the how to directions ……………………….multi-tasking photo via simon watson via martha stewart With the addition of outdoor fabric covered cushions, your storage boxes are now seating as well. I wish these would magically appear on our patio! Have any of these made you re-think how you organize summer? happy weekend.
