STEPS
TOOLS
I find it helps to put on some music before you start
Let's begin with your wardrobe
Move everything to one side, and put them into catagories. I have tops, then bottoms, the jackets then dresses. Also you can sort other things into boxes like I have at the bottom.
That is the wardrobe done
Now onto my drawers
I moved my spray onto a shelf with other things like it
I have post its and I put them on my homework shelf (sorry for people who don't go to school) but I feel a homework shelf is good if you have paper work as well
I have nail stuff
I put it with the rest of the stuff like it
I have my handbag
I put it under my bed
Now onto the chair
I put all the dirty washing in to a basket, to be moved out the way later
I have coats on it
A bag
A jumper and a skirt
...which I put in its rightful place in the drawers. It's good if you sort out the drawers into different uses. I have t-shirts on top, bottoms in the middle and shoes on the bottom
I have hung my coat on the back of the door with my dressing gown
And the other goes in the wardrobe
Now onto the bedside cabinet/table
I have lots of makeup on it
Which I put in my makeup box
And bracelets
Which I put on my jewellery stand
A tissue box
Just neaten it up
And straighten every thing. I have kept the other objects there as I use them often
Now the bed
I have the hairbrush
And I put it on my makeup shelf
Remove all your pillows first
Onto the duvet
Straighten it out first. Make sure the buttons are at the bottom
If it is too wide for the bed (like mine) then tuck it in to the side
Here is the duvet done
Now add the first set of pillows. As I don't have a headboard, I use matching pillows as one for an accessory
Put on pillows as more accessories and comfort
And a main squishy pillow for your head
I have lots of stray items on the floor
Get the wash basket
Put it somewhere out the way
I have a pad on the floor
I put it on my homework shelf
If you have any shoes on the floor...
Put them in their rightful place. I have a drawer just for shoes
I have a drawing
And I put it in the wardrobe as I have spare room
Now the windowsill
I have a box with a little bit of makeup in
And I put all my nail polishes in it
Here is it without the nail polishes
I moved the frame to its place to spread it all out
And I put my scissors on my homework shelf
And the box into another box with plenty of space
Now onto the shelves. I will show one but hopefully it will show you how to do the rest also
Start with boxes at the back and rest small objects on them. Then in front of them put larger bottles or tins or jars in front of the boxes
Then fill the gaps and put smaller things in front
Finally the wires, (very dangerous if in contact with liquid)
Tuck them away or take them out the plug and into a box or drawer
I have a book
And I put that also on the homework shelf
That is how to tidy your room quick and easily
If you have a bit of extra time, then maybe polish and Hoover your room, too!
- Wash basket
- Small box for bits and bobs
