Then there are the kid’s organizers. Teach your kids to stay organized and the importance of taking care of their belongings by including them in the cleanup process. You can buy fun baskets with faces on them or bins with kid-friendly labels. Keep everything low to the ground and at your kid’s height.

While white shelving and cubbies like clean and bright, your kid’s room should be fun. Don’t be afraid to use bright colors or paint them your child’s favorite color.

Room Organization FAQs

What if I’m not an organized person?

A: Everyone can be organized. The thing to keep in mind is that everyone has their own way of staying organized. To successfully organize the rooms in your home, you need to figure out what works for you. Don’t try to force an organizational system that doesn’t work for you and your family; it’ll never work.

How do I get my home organized?

Start in one room. Do not try to makeover your entire home in one weekend. This project is too big and will overwhelm you. It will also be hard to adapt to new systems in all of your rooms at once. Instead, start with one room. Then when that room is complete, move to the next room. Slowly work your way through each of the rooms on this list until you’ve organized your entire house.

What if I’m struggling to figure out how to organize my house?

The best thing to do is seek out help. There are professional organizers that can help you get your home sorted out. They’ll come in, help you decide what to keep, donate, throw away, or sell. Once you narrow down your belongings to your “keep” items, they’ll help you implement a system that works for you, your family, and your home.
