Summer has just about arrived, and it’s past time to get your summer stuff organized. The entryway is the perfect place to keep all of the supplies for your summer adventures.
Between flip-flops, pool bags, and endless sunscreen tubes, the entryway tends to become a summer catch-all. It’s the first place everyone rushes through on the way out, and the last stop before tracking in wet towels or muddy shoes. If your front door area is looking more chaotic than cheerful, a quick reset can turn it into a smooth and sunny command center for all your warm-weather fun. Read on for some helpful suggestions from DealDash to turn your entryway into summer central!
Create a Grab-and-Go Summer Station
Think of your entryway as the launchpad for every outing. Whether you’re heading to the beach, the park, or just the backyard, having a few essentials in arm’s reach makes it so much easier to get out the door without a scavenger hunt. Set up a small shelf, bench, or cubby system to store go-to items like sunscreen, bug spray, hats, and sunglasses.
A basket or bin labeled “pool stuff” or “park gear” can keep towels, goggles, and water bottles all in one spot. For families with younger kids, keep the sunscreen and bug spray in a safe, out-of-reach container but still near the door for easy application before heading outside.
Tame the Shoe Explosion
Summer means lots of quick ins and outs, which often translates to piles of shoes in every direction. To avoid the dreaded mountain of flip-flops and sneakers, give each family member their own spot. A shoe rack, cubby, or even a row of baskets can keep things in order. Bonus points if you add a mat or tray underneath to catch sand and dirt.
Consider placing a small towel or wipes near the door for a quick foot cleanup after muddy or sandy adventures. This tiny trick saves your floors and keeps messes from spreading through the house.
Keep It Bright, Breezy, and Seasonal
Just because your entryway is functional doesn’t mean it can’t be fun. Swap out heavy winter gear and darker décor for something light and cheerful. A summery welcome mat, a potted plant, or even a colorful hook rack can instantly make the space feel fresh.
If you have a wall nearby, hang a calendar or small dry-erase board where you can jot down summer plans, camp days, or pool party reminders. It keeps everyone on the same page and helps avoid the last-minute scramble. Check out this post on the Domestically Creative blog for some ideas on organizing your summer onto a whiteboard.
