Clean Room Problem !?
I need to store: A butt load of clothes, some electronics, a few toys, shoes, movies and a butt load of stuffed animals, books, make up, and other regular things. (extra blankets.)
I’m thirteen. How can I organize/clean my room? I’m completely out of ideas.
I already know I’m storing away all my toys. And I have a container for them. So I pretty much got the whole toy thing covered.
Thaaanks (:
Go to Walmart or the Dollar Store and get some Zip Lock "BIG" bags. Store the things that you are not going to use in these large bags and seal them. If you can’t make room in your room, store them in the basement.
You can also use those zippered vinyl bags that comforters and blankets come in.
Here is what I do to clean my room and it works like a charm:
Step one: The bed
Step two: The Laundry
Step three: The nightstand
Step four: Random stuff
Step five: Dressers and closets
Step six: Bookshelves
Step seven: computer desks
Step eight: The floor
Step One: The Bed
Making the bed makes a room look good fairly quickly.
1-Remove stuff from bed, and wash if necessary.
2-Replace and tuck in sheets.
3-Place warming blanket (down or otherwise (unless its summer out)).
4-Place the decorative blanket.
Step Two: Laundry
1-Retrieve laundry from around the room
2-Sort in light, dark, colored, and towels/rag piles
3-Send a load down to laundry, and place the rest of the piles on the bed
Step Three: The nightstand
1-Remove items from nightstand, and sort
2-Clean glass/top of stand, and apply a wood-oil if necessary
3-Place sorted items in respectable places, and throwaway garbage
Step Four: Random junk
Move random junk to their respective places, and vacuum where they used to be if you’re going to place them in their original places.
Step Five: Dressers and Tabletops
1-Remove and sort items from dresser/table tops
2-Wipe down dresser/table
3-Replace sorted items, and remove garbage
Step Six: The Bookshelf
Remove stuff from bookshelf, discard garbage, and sort items into different piles, the ones shown here are:
1-wires/electronics
2-tools/knives
Step Seven: The Computer Desk
1-Stash headphones, cameras, and other portable electronics
2-Remove garbage and dishes
3-Clean surface of desk
Step Eight: The Floor
1-Remove garbage, and sweep floor with a magnet for BBs, and look for nonmagnetic objects
2-Vacuum the floor, starting with rugs, which you should roll up and store on the bed while vacuuming the floor
3-Vacuum the floor, and replace the rugs
4-Use the extension tool for your vacuum to get around edges
Step Nine: Relax!
1-Put all the tools you’ve used to clean your room in their respective places, and go downstairs and get a Coke!
2-Look at your beautifully clean room!
3-magazines
4-school stuff
5-hardback books
6-paperback books
7-product boxes
8-stray CDs
9-Jewel cases
10-pens/pencils
11-packages
and for all your extra things like stuffed animals i just stuff them (haha) in those plastic box things from like target (really cheap)’
good luck cleaning your room!
