My spare room is much like other folks I suppose. Full of everything that doesn't belong elsewhere in the house. I keep a relatively tidy house and most things have a place.
But ... you knew there would be a but didnt you .
A relative is coming to stay for several weeks. No problem there and we are thrilled to have them stay with us.
The spare room needs to be dejunked so that the relative has some room to out their things and to enjoy being in the room. Ive had several goes at tidying it but always leave defeated.I need serious amounts of arse kicking to help me sort it out or Im going to have to exchange rooms so we have the junk room.
In the room is a bed with 4 drawers and 2 side tables with a drawer in each. There is a wardrobe with 5 shelves and a dresser with 8 drawers( different sizes) . Every drawer is full ,the wardrobe is full to bursting and there are boxes on the floor that are stuffed with random things. You cant use the bed at the moment as it is full of clothes and objects that need to be put away. But there isnt any room.
Oh ...and the floor by the bed is awash with shoes which have nowhere to go.
In my own room we have wardrobes and drawers that neatly hold our day to day clothes and shoes so its not as if we dont have storage.
Any tips or ideas how to sort it out much appreciated. I only have 2 weekends to do this but already have had to come out of the room today as Im just moving stuff and not achieving anything.
