I'm going to clean my messy room tomorrow. What's the best way to clean it and clean it fast while having fun. Oh and any decorating ideas that won't kill my wallet would be really helpful.

Thanks

  1. CLEANING YOUR ROOM

    okay it is not going to be fun but turn up the music and set a timer for 15 to 20 minutes whatever you think.

    Get all of your supplies--broom and mop or vacuum. laundry hamper, trash bag, empty box--maybe cloth and dust spray.

    -Now get everything off of your bed and make it.

    -Next just go through the room as fast as you can putting dirty clothes in hamper, trash in bag and things out of place in the box--clean clothes can go on the bed. Oh and make sure to check under the bed, on your dresser and in your closet--but be fast.

    -Now fold your clean clothes and put them away

    -wipe down any furniture

    -vacuum your floor

    -put your box items away, put the trash where it goes, deposit dirty laundry where it goes and put away your cleaning supplies.

    Race against yourself-and see how quick you can get it done.  It is best to do it frequently and this way it is only 15 minutes but even if you get done early clean for the entire 15--you can organize a dresser or closet or whatever.  This is the quickest most complete way I have found.

    CHEAP DECORATING IDEAS

    first decide what look you want

    next focus on lighting

    hit the garage sales and thrift shops and find unique lamps and lighting fixtures--you could up for a variety and have multiple lamps or just something really great.

    find something to hang on your walls--framed posters, paintings, art prints etc... something that represents your style

    a throw rug--something that shows off your unique style

    pillows

    a folding screen can be cool--you know those things you dress behind--they also have them that are picture frames--so you can show off your friends and family


  2. Just do it.  You shouldn't need it to be fun; the morality of not being a slob should be ample motivation.

  3. Well, there may not be a truly fast way to clean it if it is really messy. Do like they do on the show "clean sweep." Make a pile of things to keep and a pile of things to give away. If you even remotelyy want to give it away then do it! You will never miss it. Rearrangingg the furniture that you already have is a great way to redecorate (and obviously cheap). I love to change things around- it can be like a new room! Also, painting is good, but it can be time consuming and difficult to find the best color. If you have time go to a store like Michael's and find a fun poster or piece of art than you can get a cheap frame for. It'll look great! Turn on some music and have fun!  

  4. Flylady recommends setting a kitchen timer, let's say for 15 minutes and buzzing around and seeing how much you can accomplish.

    I get decorating ideas from other people's home and stores like Macy's furniture dept.

  5. what i do to clean my room is put some great music on and i divide my room into 4 quarters so i do one quarter one day and the next day the 2nd quarter and so on it is easier and you don'tt have to do it in one hit and you can make it in to more quarters if you like.
