  1. two words....

    Condense and Conceal.

    There are a few steps to creating a usable, organzied living space.

    #1) Make room

    Making room to organize means going through everything you own and getting rid of the things you dont need or dont use any longer.

    Rule of thumb; if yuo havent worn it, used it, or played with it in 6 months Get rid of it.

    #2)Put it away.

    Somethings are ment to be seen. Your collection of family photos, Your vintage travel posters, or even your rock collection. Somethings were meant to be unseen. Your clothes, Your electronic devices, and your retainer. These things all need a home.

    Rule of thumb; Hide the hideous, highlight the beautiful.

    #3)Think on it.

    A well organized person is aware of their routine. If everyday you walk thru the door of your room and through down your backpack than you should know that you need to hang a wall hook by the door to keep your backpack off the floor.

    #4)Mix it up.

    You dont have to store everything you own in clear plastic containers. Borrow items from the Kitchen, Garden, or Bathroom to keep your storage interesting. For example, I love hair and body products. I have 12 or 15 bottles of body lotion, self tanner, hairspray, perfume, body spalsh...you name it, I got it. I had to keep them stored in a place that I would use them, and where they could be kept tidy. So I bought a canvas shoe container that hangs on the back of the door. It has 15 or 20 pockets for shoes, but I put all my lotions and potions in it. I always set my kepys down on the mantle by my front door. To keep my mantle tidy I bought a terracotta pot from home depot for 50 cents and now I throuw my keys in that. The less your storage looks like storage and more like and interesting piece of decor the more likely you are to use it.

    Keep a few things in mind. You always have to do what works best for you. If you thrive well among the chaos then dont worry about how it looks and work it!

  2. try getting some organizers from walmart or target they come in all shapes and sizes so u can usually find one for what ever u want to store . good luck  

  3. do you have shelving? some nice boxes or bins?

    if you have a free weekend, take everything out of your room (except for the big furniture, of course)

    maybe vaccuum, lol..

    then get to sorting. find some nice cups or cheap pencil holders for all your pens and pencils. for your school stuff, i'm assuming you have a desk, and if you don't, make a little study area where all of your school supplies are.

    just categorize things to where you can know where everything is and it's neat.

    and remember, rooms look much better when they are clean and organized anyways.

    good luck
