Before and After Pics of the Bedroom



Ok, here’s before and after pics of my bedroom. Well, one side of it anyways.  It’s a long skinny room and it was feeling very claustrophobic in there with things caving in on both sides.  The clothes were piling up higher and higher.  It’s easy to see why it was so hard to relax in there and why it was stressful waking up and seeing that first thing in the morning.

And here it is now… The After Pic

It’s a  lot less stressful in there now but see what I mean about doing it again?  There’s still a lot in the room that I could get rid of.  Each room is going to get a second (and probably third) round of decluttering so I will get to it again sometime later this year.

Do you see that little bucket on the floor?  Guess what’s in there……

UNMATCHED SOCKS!!!  There’s no end to them!! They’re everywhere!!

I didn’t feel like going through them so I just piled them in the little bucket.  I probably could have added a good number to my count if I had gone through them.

  • Haha, Decluttering! IKR?? Jen, I thought the exact same thing when I read that ladies’ post!
    And somehow I KNEW that bucket was single socks!!
    Ah! Your room look s so much better!!! You are doing a fantastic job!

  • Wow – that was quite a transformation! And those unmatched socks – I have a bag full of them in my drawer. Life is too short to spend time pairing them – my socks are all black which sounds like it should be easy, but they are all slightly different lengths, thicknesses and ages so some are less black than others from washing and they are a PAIN to match! Well done – you are doing a grand job!

    • And I was also going to say, I’ve tried things like giving the kids different socks like white with pink toes or white with purple toes but that never works either!!

  • Congrats! We did multiple runs through our house too. It does get quicker and easier each time you do it in a particular place. And to think there was a crazy person saying you can declutter your entire home in 7 hours!
