Do you ever feel like your home is pretty well organized and tidy–until you walk into your own bedroom? Why is that, and what can you do about it? I’ve got some answers for you. Here are more than 11 of the best ideas for total bedroom organization. After you read this post, you’ll see how attainable organization really is!
- The first thing to do before organizing any space is to DECLUTTER. In other words, get rid of everything you’re hanging onto for whatever reason, but don’t really need. That includes clothes that don’t fit, books you’re not going to read, and stuff that’s just taking up valuable space.
- Reassess your storage options and think about those places that are actually great spots for extra storage–like the back of your closet door.
- A towel rack mounted to the back of the closet or bedroom door is a convenient spot to hang shoes, boots, and accessories.
- Instead of a bedside table, mount a shelf on the wall to hold your clock, phone, and a small lamp.
- Use bed risers like these, and then utilize the new-found space under the bed to store baskets full of extra linens or winter clothing.
- A bedside organizer that hangs from the side of the bed holds your nighttime read, remotes, glasses, and anything else you need without taking up valuable table or floor space. Get one at Amazon.
- Use pretty dishes from your local thrift shop as drawer dividers in your dresser or vanity. They will hold and organize your makeup, jewelry, and other small items you want to keep track of.
- If your closet is notoriously small, evaluate whether you’ve got floor space to add an armoire to your room. They are perfect as a bonus closet and can organize a lot of things!
- If you don’t have room for an armoire, look into all the ways you can improve on your existing closet space. A closet organizer with lots of drawers, shelves and cubbies can improve your storage options more than you might think.
- The space over and behind the head of your bed is oven overlooked as potential storage space. Shelves with baskets and bins can display your bedside items in style.
- Improve your drawer organization by rolling your clothes. It takes up less space, and you can more easily see what you’re looking for. That’s a definite time-saver on busy mornings!
- Vacuum pack your off-season clothing to make it much less bulky and easier to store. Plus, you’ll be able to store more!
