Hello, person reading this. Quarantine has us cleaning and organizing everything in our rooms/homes. Some of us, like me, donโt know where to start. So when I finally figured out the best way to go about cleaning my room, I gathered some tips to organize and decorate my room. Here they are:
๐ฟ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ธ๐ฝ๐ถ~
- Make a Pinterest board of rooms that you like and see what they all have in common.
- Notice the things you like about those rooms, mainly decorations or pictures or bedding.
- Make a list of all the things the rooms have in common, and the things you like about the rooms.
4. Look at your room section by section. Make lists for all the sections of your room. In those lists, write down what you want to change in those sections, and what you will need. You can also do a rough sketch of what you want the room to look like. It helps a lot when you know exactly where you want everything to be.
5. Dedicate a week or so to organize and redecorate your room. Do a little bit each day. For example, do two shelves in your closet one day, the next day, clean out your bookshelf, the next day, tackle under your bed. The last couple of days should be for redecorating
6. ALSO THINK ABOUT STORAGE SPACE

- I remember someone once said, while cleaning/organizing, when youโre not sure what to keep or get rid of, if you havenโt used or thought about an item in the last year, you donโt need it.
- I have a hard time getting rid of things I had since I was a kid, so this tip really helped. When youโre needing to get rid of something youโre not ready to give up, like a childhood toy, just think of how happy the next person who gets it is gonna be.
- Make four piles for the things that you are gonna organize: one for keeping, one for donating, one for throwing away, and an โ Iโll think about itโ pile.

- Take a before and after picture of each space in your room. Itโs just cool to see what it looked like before it was put together.
- I recommend doing this every six months since your deep cleaning the whole entire room. I reorganized and redecorated my room in June, so Iโll do it again in December. This helps me to keep up the organization all year round.
Whatever youโre organizing/cleaning, I hope these tips helped you in some way or another. Also stay tuned for my 1 year anniversary post tomorrow! Iโll also be announcing something special. Thanks for reading! ๐โค๏ธ
