Happy Birthday to Me! Plus, Room Organization tips!

Hey!! So, today is my birthday!! I had a great time getting together with all my girlfriends for the party. We had SO much fun! Anyway, I've been thinking....It is time I remodel my room. My room literally looks like...well...crap! It has drywall all over it from nail marks, etc., it hasn't been repainted in who knows how long, and I never seem to have picked out a decent color scheme! I won't be able to really remodel until a little while, but I am going to provide you with a few tips and tricks to organize your room!

So, first off, you need to have a complete room rejuvination. If you're anything like me, there's all kinds of little knick-nacks and random stuff just sitting around your room. Go through every drawer, every crack and crevice and throw away anything you don't need. It will leave you feeling fresh and de-cluttered.

Next up is to establish an actual system of organization! I would reccomend finding storage bins for under your bed, in your closets, etc. I myself have the PBTeen Dotty Storage Bins that work really well, hold a number of things, and don't get dirty. Group things together. (e.g., Books in one bin, CDs in another.) Be sure to label the bins!! Then, place them in a spot where they are easy to reach and are needed. You don't want them sitting in the middle of the room.

After this, double check your room and make sure you have means of a main storage. If you have a lot of items and not a lot of storage, consider buying a desk or cabinet/bookshelf. And don't put it off! If you are younger, discuss with your parents the situation you have in your room. Make it a point to buy some unit for storage! 

That's all for today!! I may be back for some more tips. For now, I hope you enjoyed, and thanks for reading! Bye!
