Do you have everything ready, or are you having trouble finding everything on your list? Don’t worry, Twin Star Home has got your back(pack and coat rack organizer)! Let’s dive into our top 6 items for back-to-school bliss.
Best Desks for Back to School
A standing desk is a smart choice for your home, especially if your high schooler has been sitting all day at school. Besides letting your teenager stretch their growing limbs, it also creates a perfect homework station that fits everyone’s height preferences. For example, you can program three different height settings into this standing desk, shown below. Built-in USB charging keeps your devices humming along.
Another elegant option is a sleek writing desk with USB charging, like this one pictured below. If you’re searching for a compact desk for small spaces, this stylish writing desk makes for an inspiring study space or study room makeover. This versatile piece can also be used as an entryway table or a cute accent table in the primary bedroom. or whatever your space calls for.
Best Back-to-School Storage
If you’re looking for something to help your little ones learn about organization, we love this hall tree with hooks and included baskets (shown below). The wide bench and six cubby areas are ideal storage solutions for school supplies. A fun idea is to assign a specific basket to each kiddo so they have a spot for their shoes (or show-and-tell items, or school books) in that basket. Hopefully, establishing good habits will ensure you never have to go looking for that one missing sandal or soccer cleat!
If you’re looking for special storage needs in your teen’s bedroom, we recommend the customer-favorite Tresanti Marilyn Vanity Table, shown below:
Perfect for makeup and hair accessories, this vanity includes seven drawers with adjustable dividers for all your organizational needs and has enough space to use as a desk. Plus, the bottom drawer has 3 A/C power ports for a hair dryer and other styling tools. And with matching end tables available, your back-to-school setup never looked so good.
Higher Learning + Elevated Style = Back to School Perfection
For those helping their college-bound kids get ready for the fall, we’ve got the best dorm essentials around. Keep your scholar comfortable and focused when the weather gets chilly with a duraflame® electric heater. With models small enough to go almost anywhere, these heaters take the chill out of drafty dorms without taking up much room.
For cozy comfort, we just had to recommend these college staples, aka papasan cushions. These durable papasan cushions from Classic Accessories are a fantastic choice because they are designed to resist water, fading, and spills. They are so fluffy and large, you might need to get an extra one for your own home!
Another must-have for the dorm life is a set of colorful accent pillows. We love these options from the Vera Bradley by Classic Accessories collection because they are stuffed with a comfortable polyester fiber fill and the fan-favorite prints help your scholar display their personality.
