need help cleaning my room !


Question Posted Monday June 24 2013, 4:40 pm

I am a 24 year old female and I share a room with my 11 year old niece and my mom says if we keep our room clean for a month we can decorate it any way we want to but the thing is every time I clean my room my niece Cheyenne messes it up . I cleaned it and rearranged it the other day it took me about 3 hours to do it and she messed it up an hour later no lie . I was so mad because I am a neat freak but our room is really small and we don't have hardly anywhere to put our stuff. All we have is 2 closet's and one dresser. one of the closets is mine and the other closet belongs to my niece and we share the dresser. so almost everything ends up under the beds or stuffed in the closets and dressers how are we suppose to organize it ? we don't have anywhere to put movies ,cd's , and books and we have more clothes than we have room for .
also how am I suppose to compromise with an 11 year old on how to decorate the room when I am 24 ? please help any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks .

There are stores whose main inventory is all items that help organize and creatively store and find places for your stuff.
There are large flat containers on mini wheels that slide under the bed and the seasonal clothes you don't wear at the time can go there or put in plastic bags and then into rectangle plastic bins that can be stored in attic or garage. You both may want to still pare down the amount of clothes you have. For your entry door, hang a shoe organizer. Find one that will take the maximum amount of shoes. I have seen collapse netting and board organizers that can hang in a closet or from a mooly screw hook in ceiling. Use these mini hanging shelves for socks, underwear, etc. L brackets and a board across will serve as a nice shelf on the wall on your side of room. I don't understand why you have the living arrangements you do, but these are hard economical times. So if this is what you are stuck with, you can do the best to organize but a small room and an 11 yr old, are still going to make it tough going.
