Decorate it!
Waking up early, papers, tests and oh yes, homework, homework, homework. But going back to school can be fun too when you get to make things your own. Get creative and decorate your locker with essentials and fun stuff to keep you going all year long.

Magnets
Post important dates, events or photos of you and your friends with tiny, funky magnets and magnet frames.

Lynka magnet frames, $13.50, Umbra.

Tiny Mighties magnets, $9.15, and Colour Dots, $8.15, Three by Three Seattle. (Available at Home Depot)

Mini Spot magnet hooks, $9.99, Three by Three Seattle. (Available at Home Depot)

Mirror
Great for checking to make sure that everything is ‘properly sorted’. High school can provide enough embarrassing moments so if you can prevent any ‘nose friendlies’ or lunch mishaps from staying on your face, all the better.

Stackable locker shelves
Keep your textbooks, binders and notebooks separate from lunch or your gym gear.

Organizing the small stuff
Store these in your locker, you’ll never know when you’ll need ‘em! Extra pens, pencils and self stick notes. Use small storage containers. Think outside the box! Use anything from plastic, stackable ‘food’ containers to cute ‘takeout’ boxes.
