Designing Your School Lockers

School Lockers For All Ages

Whether you have a child at school or are at college, every student is in possession of school lockers nowdays. Lockers are not only used for storage but a great way of demonstrating your personality through your locker. No two lockers should ever be the same. Even if you can not decorate the outside of your locker make sure to decorate the inside. Some school will let their students come in a day or two before school starts and let them decorate their lockers.

Ideas on Decorating

If you can come up with a theme, you are off to a great start. Theme ideas could be that of your favorite sport team, musical entertainer, profession, sport star, hobbies, pets, cars, class mates, divas, hunks, butterflies, unicorns, wildlife and any other idea you can come up with. There are certain items you need to have in your locker. They include but are not limited to the following items. Calculator, ruler, paper (writing, art and graph), pens, pencils, supply holder, stapler, paper clips, folders, erasers, safety scissors, glue stick, rubber bands, notebooks, and a protractor. Some of these items are provided by the school and some are not. A small waste bag, portable shelves, tissue paper, plastic bag for wet coats, mirror, small rug remnant, shelf liners, personal groom aides, air fresher, calendar, small clock, make up kit, boyfriend or girlfriend pictures and anything that will fit inside your locker that is appropriate.

Making Your Locker Individual

Decals, stickers name plates, player numbers and pictures can also go on the outside of the door. Some of these items must be approved by the administration. I personally never like identifying my locker to others. Many schools will provide a list of items that should not be in your locker. They include but or not limited to the following. Medication, sharp objects (including scissors), weapons, mobile phones, MP3 players, explosive (firecrackers), chemicals and any other unsafe items. School Lockers are an important part of demonstrating an individuals individuality and creativity. They also are a great way of placing books, stationery and personal belongings and help a student to keep organized no matter what time of day it is. Include your timetable also to ensure that you know just exactly where you need to be at any time of the day. School lockers are there to be personalized so make sure you do!
