Organized Guest Bedroom…Soon to be Nursery

I’ve been tackling A LOT this week and will be posting final pictures once I finish each project, but for now, I finally cleaned and organized the guest room.  My mom came over Monday night and helped me clear things out and make decision (I’m indecisive when it comes to giving away “things” like this).

I basically tackled the room by:

1. Selling a couple of big items via Facebook to make some room.
2. Going through room and throwing away trash.
3. Started a “Give Away” pile.
4. Asked mom to come over and help me finish 🙂  She’s very good at completing a project and motivating me to make decisions.  I can’t ponder over an item when she’s there.

We made a pile in the dining room of the littler things I wanted to sell via Facebook and finished out the big bag of give away items.  I have a plan for the rest of the things in the room that are in the chest and under bed.  I needed to get this cleaned so I could take a picture of the furniture since we are selling it as well.

Feels so good to have this room cleaned out and on it’s way to being a nursery.  One more thing checked off my 2014 Organizing Projects.  I’m currently selling the items and storing the keepers in the garage, so I won’t check that off just yet.

    My mom is great about giving me one final push at the end when I burn out of a big project like what you're doing, or even a little one, ha! Looks great! 🙂
