Summer is here, and with it comes all the fun accessories that make the season shine—sunglasses, hats, sunscreen, and more. But let us be honest: these items can quickly pile up and turn into clutter if they are not stored thoughtfully. The good news? With just a few simple tweaks, you can keep all your essentials organized, easy to find, and ready for your next sunny adventure.

🕶️ Sunglasses: Display and Protect

If you have more than a couple of pairs, it is worth giving them a proper home. A drawer insert or velvet-lined tray is perfect for keeping them safe and scratch-free. Prefer to show them off? A wall-mounted rack or hanging display turns your collection into a mini gallery—and makes choosing a pair feel like shopping your own boutique.

And do not forget to keep a couple of hard-shell cases near the door or in your car so your favorites are always protected on the go.

🧴 Sunscreen: Store Smart, Stay Safe

It is one of those things you always need but never want to dig for. Try grouping all your SPF products, sprays, sticks—into a clear bin or small caddy. Keep it in a cool, dry spot (definitely not your car!) so the formulas stay effective.

It also helps to separate face sunscreens from body ones and give everything a quick once-over at the start of the season to toss anything expired.

👒 Hats: Keep Them in Shape

Hats can be tricky, especially wide-brimmed ones that lose their shape easily. If you have wall space, a row of hooks or a peg rail is a stylish and practical way to keep them in shape and on display.

No room for that? Stack them gently on a shelf or in a bin, largest to smallest, and stuff the crowns with tissue paper to help them hold their form. And here is a tip: when packing, fill the inside of your hat with socks or swimwear to keep it from getting crushed.

🧺 Create a Summer Grab-and-Go Station

To make summer even smoother, consider setting up a little grab-and-go station near your entryway. A small tray or basket can hold your daily essentials—sunglasses, sunscreen, lip balm with SPF, bug spray, maybe even a foldable hat or visor.

That way, you are always ready for a spontaneous walk, beach trip, or backyard hangout.
