This is the view from the hall door. DS has the bunk beds. DD used the
low bed (even DD loves Thomas!). But they tend to go from bed to bed,
so they're all unmade (we're really bad about making beds). His dresser
houses his foldables and next to that is his shelf . Each child's shelf
is off limits to the other . . . special things get put on there.
Anything left on the floor is fair game
. The drawers under the bunk house some of his toys and extra sheets for all beds in the room.
DS's closet. His own space. Keeps lots of his "little" toys in there .
. . K'NEX, Legos, special books and cards and things. Hangables too.
Uniforms on the bottom and dress clothes on the top. As soon as I get
my scrapbook pages out of there, there will be better space for the
sleeping bags and anything else he wants up there.
My photo shelves. Scrapbooking is my only "hobby," so I have lots of them
.
Photos kept here as well. The filing cabinet is due to be moved
upstairs and my MOMS Club bag is still there from the meeting last
month (need to put that away!). When the cabinet is gone, they'll have
a nice little place to curl up with whatever. I've thought of putting
their books in here for a reading nook, but I like the books in the
living room. Still debating (I rearrange a lot to find what works for
us as our needs change).
DD's side of the room (behind the door is a half bath). Her dresser and
shelf. Lots of art on the walls. DS's bulletin board for projects and
things (won't fit on his side). The laundry sorter for all three kids .
. . I started doing laundry by person, which has been much easier.
Our closet. DD has bottom left. DH has upper left. I have most of the
right, with DH's pants. I have some things in a spare closet in another
room, but almost all of our clothes are here. Drawer units hold our
socks and things. Someday, DH and I will have real furniture
. Until then, it's easy to put the laundry away when almost all of it is in one room.
That's all I have for now. I'll add more rooms later . . . when kids and time allow--naps are sporadic at best here
.
I'm always in a mode to get better streamlined and get rid of more, but
it takes time. I have to admit that when everything is put away and the
beds are made, the room looks really nice. One of my favorites in the
house!
