Orange is Always in Style

Back-to-School Tips for Parents

Most schools are back in session by now, and while starting a new school year can be very exciting for children and teens, it can also be anxiety-inducing. Help them (and you) calm those fears and start the school year off right; here are two very simple ways that we as parents can help in the first few weeks.

While it’s best to start settling into a back-to-school routine a few weeks before the school year begins, why not practice these habits now if you haven’t already? Helping children or teens fall into a cadence will make the transition into academic years smoother. 

Set a Reasonable Bedtime

Not many children (and especially teens) want an established bedtime, but this is important. Kids need more sleep than adults, and setting a bedtime will ensure that they are well-rested for their day and ready to succeed. We know that as parents, you’re very busy, but take this opportunity to see if you can fit in some extra shut eye for yourself.

While we’re on the subject of extra sleep, are your children in need of new bedroom furniture? Maybe you finally want to get that bunkbed for the boys. With a built-in desk, this sleek twin-over-twin loft style bed doubles as the perfect study space and, best of all, it will last for many school years to come! 

Or perhaps your teenager just needs her own space? Maybe she’s making the transition from middle school to high school, so why not make this difficult time memorable with this gorgeous Queen Bedroom Set?

More than just new furniture, these options will help your children sleep better and, in turn, succeed. What could be better?

Eat Breakfast.

Another extremely important thing to remember is making sure children eat a healthy breakfast every day. You want them to do their best in school, and this small step will go a long way! Remember that kids (young ones, particularly) want to emulate their parents. An excellent thing for them to parrot is the action of eating breakfast, so think about trying to pencil in the time to eat a quick breakfast as a family.

Perfect for sitting down for that quick meal, this Dinette set will not only allow you to have breakfast in the mornings, but reconnect as a family when you gather together again at dinner.

Don’t let the new school year get you down. Follow these quick tips, and you and your children will fall into the swing of things in no time. Now, if we could just do something about this summer heat...

Millions of Peaches: Celebrate National Peach Month!

August is National Peach Month, and since we can only scratch the surface of all the delicious culinary inspirations out there, we thought we’d share some of our favorite recipes.

Traditionally, most will think of pies or cobblers when thinking of baking with peaches, so what better way to start this recipe extravaganza than with an old standby? The cobbler has a long history, actually. Cobblers originated in the British American colonies, and today in the United States, there are six different varieties. The Deep South tradition only calls for a single fruit filling--in our case, peach--and gives the option of topping the dessert with a scoop or two of ice cream. Who knew the ice cream was optional? This simple recipe takes 7 ingredients, and delivers delicious results!

We’ve got a cobbler recipe, but what about a pie? We just love this recipe for a beautiful pie with a lattice crust! Lattice crusts add such a great look to a pie, but how do you do it easily? Check out this video and make one sure to make your family and friends jealous. 

Are we sleepy yet? Picture the scene: you’ve had your fill of cobbler (and pie), and now you just want to relax without fully reclining on a sofa or a bed. Why not look into this reclining swivel chair with ottoman? 

So, now you’re relaxing with a delightfully full stomach, or maybe you decided to completely forego the desserts. Whatever the case may be, this delightful recipe for a peach bellini is perfect for indoor or outdoor summer refreshment, or you could try this super-easy non-alcoholic option for adults and kids.

The peach bellini is always a classic option, and wouldn’t it look amazing served from behind this modern bar? Such a classic drink would contrast nicely with the this chrome-accents here.

With recipes for desserts and drinks, we’re ready to celebrate National Peach Month! How about you?
