Back Into The Groove
Back to school, back to routine! Hop out of holiday mode into an organised & functional family home, whatever it looks like.
We hope that everyones holiday break, however long, was so refreshing and fun, spent with the people you love most. Though we know that all good things must come to an end, does the good have to fade from our everyday routines?
With school & work gearing back up for 2021, we’re all about making our ordinary lives feel extraordinary wherever we can! Turning the mundane into exciting because what’s more exciting than a fresh pantry setup, or colour coordinating your drink bottle with your backpack!? In this blog you’ll find the trendiest tips & tricks to inspire you in the smallest or biggest ways when it comes to getting back into the groove of this life we live.
Rise and shine
Weekday mornings can be a mixed bag of chilled, rushed or crazy, so make your spaces functional in case the latter occurs. Start with the bathroom, specific jars and trays for toothbrushes and soap can be a lifesaver. The Sahara Bathroom Accessory set from Pillow Talk is neutral to fit well in any bathroom setup and looks so stylish. Might impress your guests too!
Looking pretty
The right dresser can be tough to find, with many different setups and sizes available to choose from. Head into Forty Winks and check out this Armidale Dresser with a Mirror! It might be just the one you’re looking for with a sizeable mirror and counter space for makeup and valuable things you’d love to display.
Chuck a snag on a basket
We are just as psyched about this basket as you are right now. This epic Sausage Dog Basket is from Pillow Talk. All we have to say is that you need it. Enough said.
Go Go Gadget!
We can all use a little help sometimes, and luckily in the 21st century, people have come up with some awesome inventions to make life a little easier. In and around the home, anything that we can do to save a little time is always appealing, especially when our weeks become a bit busier as work, school and everything else in-between ramps up again.
Whether your home is all about technology hacks, big on savvy cleaning products or just looking for some easy storage options, prepare yourself for the days ahead with these products, which we hope will sprinkle efficiency and productivity on your routine.

Good things only under the bed
Instead of a monster, opt for storage galore under your kids bed. You could put extra bed linen and sheets, toys and blankets inside them, making for a room tidy or refresh easy and all in one place. Might even be a great hiding spot for that next hide-n-seek game!
Drink up buttercup
At the start of a new school year grabbing a new drink bottle is usually a part of the school supply shopping spree, so make a great choice this year! At Harvey Norman you can find these Penny Scallan Kids 500ml Drink Bottles for an affordable price this year. Plus, how fun is this design!?
Squeaky clean
The nighttime bathing routine with your kids can be a task, but making them step out of the bath onto this fun mat will be sure to create some fun. Associating fun with cleanliness and hygiene can only be a win-win situation that you’ll thank yourself for in the years to come! The Kids House Squeaky Clean Bath Mat is available at Spotlight now.
Family Must-Haves
Making a home requires things like having a communal dining table, a cosy living room, functional bedrooms and bright bathrooms; but what about the details?
As a family, or if you’re in a roomie situation, there can be ways to make your home more uplifting and fun in the way you decorate and furnish the space. Creating a welcoming atmosphere with pleasant smells, or having that waffle maker to create those yummy Saturday mornings waffles is sometimes just the thing you need to create community and culture in your home.
We know that cultivating a lively and liveable space can be a challenge to make a start at, and so we’ve done the hard yards for you to look at these products and feel inspired. Start with the small things, they’re usually what makes the most difference at first!
