In my last post, I gave you some ideas on how to de-clutter your teen room zones, this time I want to share some tips on how to keep things up.
Closet Upkeep
It’s good to get into the habit of doing a closet check every season. The key is to remove any items you no longer wear or have been replaced by new purchases.
Now is also a good time to reorganize your clothes and tidy things up – re-hang, re-fold, or re-categorize by type e.g. T-shirts with T-shirts, long sleeve shirts with long sleeve shirts etc.
Drawer Maintenance
At the beginning of each month, take a few minutes to re-evaluate the contents of your dressers. A good time to do this is when you’re putting your clean laundry away. Is everything as tidy as it could be - allowing you to find exactly what you want when you want it? If not, take some time to re-group like things together and straighten up any messy drawers.
Do a Quick Room Scan
Conducting a visual sweep of your teen room once a week is an excellent way of staying on top of things. My daughter routinely scans her room on Saturday mornings and removes and re-organizes items as necessary. She finds taking an extra few minutes once a week has done wonders for keeping her teen room neat and orderly all week long.
