Organizing Makeover for a Boys’ Bedroom
as seen on
The Montel Williams Show

by Diane Albright
Organizing Expert & Speaker

What we did....                                             

Our first step was to make a plan to reorganize the boys' bedroom and closet.  We sat down with the boys' mother to discuss the needs and habits of her two sons, ages 7 and 5. Our goal was to design this room to accommodate the boys’ needs now and through their teenage years. An entire wall had a beautiful hand-painted jungle mural that we would incorporate in the redecorating of the room.  We took measurements and made our plan to maximize space with the drawers, shelves, and closet.

We followed our STACKS method by selecting an area, planning the time, and dividing the project into achievable segments. Our next step was purging, grouping like items together, and sorting the boy’s clothes by ownership.  After this was completed, we had what was left to organize. 

We removed the original furniture in the room (except for a built in bookcase) and replaced it with multifunctional furniture.  The multifunctional furniture allowed us to maximize the space in the room, giving us the ability to put in two desks (which not even one would fit before).

We selected a closet organizing system that was adjustable to fit the boys’ clothing as they grew.  We added more shelves to the closet.  We used clear plastic drawer organizers to maximize the space in the drawers.  These organizers also made for easy retrieval and return of items.

We added comforters and sheets especially designed for bunk beds to give ease in bed making.  We selected a jungle theme fabric for the bedding and window treatment.  This made the transition fun for the boys.

Our last step was taking a look at the entire bedroom to see if it met our goals and to do any last minute tweaking.
