10 Summer Products That Will Speed Up Your Day
The dog days of summer: long, slow, relaxing…yeah right. Wake up and smell the diapers, people! Summer does not equate to any “time-off’ when it comes to parenting. This is why we love curating lists for you that are jam-packed with solution-oriented, time-saving products that just make things a little easier. We teamed up with our friends at Pattern Brands to bring you Summer Must-Have’s list of household items that help speed up your day.
A way to send a message that’s functional, chic, and easy to clean? Sign us up! Letterfolk’s best-selling Tile Mat is made with rubber-like hexagon tiles and removable caps that enable you to create countless designs and words. Words like, “BACK TO THE BEACH,” or “MORE WINE!”
This Glass French Press will make your quick morning coffee become a ritual to look forward to. There’s just something so…luxurious (!) about taking a moment in the morning (afternoon, or evening) to brew a pot of full-bodied coffee. And also so luxurious you can then place it directly in the dishwasher.
What we said before, but make it iced.
Gone are the days of continuously trying to line up shoes, sizes 3 months to men’s 16. This three-tier rack is equal parts function and design and can be used for storing just about anything.
One way to make your time in the kitchen that much less chaotic. Give the big(ger) kids a job. Thanks to GIR’s Mini Tool Set (specifically designed for babes’ smaller hands) you can keep your mini busy and start training the next Master Chef at the same time.
They say a quarter of a year is an ideal time to set goals, and we agree. It’s long enough to give you time to really see results, but not too long where you can get lost in the sauce. We love this Quarterly Goal Planner for its thoughtful prompts and open-dated calendar system. Because, as mamas, we all know, time is…well…in flux.
Keep track of time with a sense of nostalgia (but not the kind of nostalgia that requires you to do constant maintenance/upkeep) with this modern cuckoo clock. Plus, Letterfolk has created fun summer colors with different colored birds and pendulum discs so you can customize your clock all summer long.
So you don’t have time to do a full-on deep cleaning before that dinner party starts? Turn your home into a sanctuary with the light of a match and a deliciously (yet not overly) scented candle. Talk about instant ambiance!
You know when you start cleaning up your babe’s room and realize you’re just making piles of different piles? Been there, done that. These Large Wire Baskets are lightweight, sustainably sourced, and not at all an eye-sore. Plus, the wire of it all allows you to see what’s inside without having to spill everything out!
Make your kitchen a saner space by simplifying your tools. Everything in the GIR Essentials Bundle is platinum-cured silicone, cosmetic grade, hypoallergenic, BPA and BPS-free, making them safe to use and (arguably more importantly) easy to clean.
