Last week my daughter was assigned to clean her room
when she came to me and said, “There is just too much stuff in my room!” She
sure knows the way to get my attention. The very next day we were in her room
clearing out stuff. She is so
good at getting rid of things she doesn’t want.
At one time, her room was all
princesses. One day she decided that she didn’t like them anymore so she took
everything “princess” out of her room and into the hallway for me to give away. All
that was left in her bedroom was a bed, tv, dresser, and chair. I thought for
sure that she would change her mind and want the stuff back but she never did. My girl had made up her mind.
OK, so back to present day. Here are some before
pictures.

She has such a small room with a love for stuffed
animals. |
Let the refresh begin:
|
We sorted her clothes & took everything out of the bottom of her closet. |
|
Next, We put all of her toys in one basket. |
|
We keep extra blankets in her closet for her sleep over guests. |
|
Everything went back in the closet. |
|
The book shelf was in order once again. |

|
This guy was allowed to stay. |
|
The bed was made. |
|
We changed her bed around and gave her a night stand for her radio. | |

A list of things that found a different home:
- 40 books (“too
kiddy,” she said)
- Remaining dress
up costumes (3 sizes too small)
This is not a big list but it makes a BIG difference in a small room.
My girl is happy with her room once again.
