Anyone have any tips for organizing a bedroom?
Answers:
the best way to keep a room organized and neat is simplicity- first seperate your things by catergory- clothing, personal care items, collectibles , etc. go through each pile and get rid of what you don't need / use any more . Don't be afraid to get rid of things and get them gone as soon as possible so you are not tempted to go back through and keep things.
Things that have sentimental value - be creative and find a place of honor for them-- a shelf, shadow box, frame, etc
clothing- organize by season, I find it easier to hang most of my clothing including t shirts and jeans- if you dont have a lot of hanging space get a dresser with a hutch keep each drawer reserved for specific items. those canvas shlves you can hang in your closet are useful too. Get a couple of storage boxes for under the bed- these are good for shoes, sweaters, sheets and blankets.
Keep like things together- don't have personal care items scattered all over the room- keep your hobby/ craft items in one area - storeage system, oyur personal care items together, your books , cds , media in one place and everything BACK to its place when it is not in use.
You know the size and storeage options in your room- the key to keeping everything organized is "Everything has a home and everything in it's home" When a space is full to capacity you have two options- don't get anything else for that space- don't tey to squeeze it in- there is NOT always room for one more- OR- get rid of one or two things before you bring something new in.
Be very discerning about collectibles.
One large piece of furniture is always more functional, organized and appealing to the eye than several small pieces.
Once you get everything in oder, make a habit of putting things back in their place when you are finished using it. Make "rules " for your room- when you create your own rules and keep them in mind, it helps keep things in order. One rule in my room is absolutely no clothes on the floor, not dirty or clean. I have a basket and all dirty clothes go in that- if I am in a rush and would normally just throw something on the floor - I put it on my bed and then take 2 minutes before I go to bed later to put it away.
When things are kept neat and organized oyu have less wear and tear on things, they last longer and you will feel better about yourself.
keep it simple and it wont be so easy to get cluttered.
