4 Essential Cordless Tools You Need Before Back To School Season

August 23, 2022 · In: Lifestyle, Reviews & Roundups

These four household tools get your home clean, your life organized, and help you stay on schedule during the busy back to school season. And bonus points, they’re all cordless! In partnership with HART Tools.

Back To School time is creeping around the corner, and for some of us, it has already started. This time of year always seems so busy and stressful. We’re trying to ease back into our school day routines while juggling all the new responsibilities that come our way. From early morning carpools to evening extracurricular activities, there’s a lot to keep up with. These four tools from HART have helped my own Back To School routine kick off seamlessly, and they all run on the exact same battery!

Glue Gun

Back To School season is also Back To Projects season. Between science fair tri-boards and shoebox dioramas, there is a lot of cutting and glueing in your future. I love a hot glue gun and I’ll use it for any project I can because it dries so quickly. But the cord is very limiting, especially if you’re working on a big poster.

HART hot glue gun for school projects

Ever since I got this cordless glue gun from HART, I have never touched my old glue gun again. It runs on the same 20V battery as the vacuum above, as well as every other small tool I own from HART, so I always have one on hand. This glue gun heats up quickly and gets very hot, so no project is too big for it. (Parents of young children will need to use the glue gun; it’s not safe for small hands.) And it takes full-size glue sticks so you refill less often than the mini sticks.

HART tools high capacity stick vac

High Capacity Stick Vac

I love a good lightweight vacuum, and this new High Capacity Stick Vac from HART Tools is favorite so far! In my morning haze before the coffee kicked in, I had already spilled a whole container of cereal in the floor and knocked over a glass that shattered into the scattered cereal. Instead of dragging out a bulky vacuum and wrestling with the cord, I was able to pop this guy out of the closet and have the mess cleaned up in no time.

Most Stick Vacs have a really small waste compartment, so it needs to be emptied often. This new High Capacity Stick Vac functions like a slightly smaller standard vacuum and holds a lot of cereal and broken glass. (Oops) It also has a runtime of up to 30 minutes so I can vacuum up all the fur tumbleweeds without having to swap a battery.

HART tools inverter for phone charger

Power Source Inverter

How many times have your kids gotten in the car to head to dance practice and realized their phone was at 10%? I’m always paranoid about leaving my son anywhere when his phone battery is low, and this HART Inverter allows him to have a power source no matter where he is.

The Inverter uses a 20V battery to act as a mobile charging station, no wall outlet required. It’s perfect for charging up a phone at an all-day sports event outside, or for kids to charge devices during long car rides from the backseat. I keep our HART Inverter in a zipper pouch along with 2 charged batteries and we take it everywhere we go.

HART portable fan

Portable Fan

Speaking of all-day sporting events, just because school has started does not mean it feels like fall yet. Here in Tennessee, our fall season doesn’t kick in until October so we have two full months of very hot outdoor sporting events. Yes, I have tried to be that mom with the neck fan…but it worked about as well as it looked on me… (Not good. Not good at all.)

HART tools portable fan

Now we use this portable fan from HART. It’s a little over 7 inches, so it’s still the perfect size for portability. But it runs on a 20V battery so the power is much stronger than those handheld fans that take double A’s. We also love to break out this fan in the evenings when we have dinner out on our picnic table. It’s just the right amount of breeze without blowing the napkins one yard over.

What’s the number one essential you need in your What’s the number one essential you need in your beach bag? (Aside from towels and sunscreen) 🏖️ 
Beach bags are kind of hard to organize because you’re jamming a lot into one bag. My biggest tip is to take two bags instead of one.
On the way there, one bag holds personal stuff and the other holds entertainment items. But on the way back, one bag holds clean stuff and the other holds dirty items. 🙌🏼
And don’t forget to put an empty waterproof bag in there too. I usually use one of the TSA approved toiletry bags for flying. We put our phones, wallets, and glasses inside so they don’t get wet or sandy.

Wait for the last one… 🤩 Sherry @younghousel Wait for the last one… 🤩
Sherry @younghouselove downsized quite a bit a few years ago and it proving that you CAN be organized in a small home with kids and pets. Didn’t she do an amazing job with all these spaces?
Pretty sure she was being modest with her grade prediction because I’d give her a definite A!
Which organized space of hers is your favorite? I’m in LOVE with her laundry closet! 🥰
She buys most of her organizers from Amazon and Ikea and you can tour her whole house on her blog, YouTube, and IG Story highlights. Sherry is one of my BFFs so if you aren’t already following her, do it now! Her Story content is the most entertaining part of my day. 🙌🏼
Do you pack minimally or overpack when you travel? Do you pack minimally or overpack when you travel?
I used to be that person that packed WAY more than I needed and was always overwhelmed with a messy suitcase halfway through my trip. When I started downsizing the clothes I packed to just what I needed, I spent less time picking out what to wear and cleaning up messy piles, and more time enjoying my trips.
But I’ll admit, if I could bring my whole sneaker collection with me so I’d have all the options, I totally would. 😂😂

Have you tried this yet? I did not expect it to wo Have you tried this yet? I did not expect it to work this well the first time I did it but now I’ll never dust baseboards any other way.
It also works well on door panels, picture frame moulding, chair rails, and even gets those hairs off back of the toilet that tend to stick and slide around when cleaning. 🙌🏼
