I did it. I finally separated my stuff and made my mini room. I was just so overwhelmed having to dig through my sisters stuff to find my own things that I knew it was past time to separate. Though I can’t get my own room, I finally got my own space.
I made my own closet out of a strong tension rod that I posted between one of my dressers and the wall. It is not tall to really facilitate whole length dresses but I don’t have to worry about those. Yes. With the exception of my lab coat and uniform, that is all my clothes. I never had the space to have much and now I do!
I needed to organize my shoes without a closet and so I placed them in the drawers of my dresser. With my lack of clothes, this one dresser was nearly empty. Here, my shoes are organized and always paired. I don’t have to worry about them. Taller shoes like boots were placed underneath my bed.
I also do a lot of writing and have a lot of papers to organize. I saw online that this one person organized their papers by posting folders to their walls. It really kept things organized for me! I got two folders that not only organize my mail or important to do papers but also help decorate the walls and fill up space. Looks good!
I also built that cube shelf so that I could have some place to hide my bags. The bottom drawer is a couple purses (totes), the middle drawer is some sweatshirts that couldn’t fit in my small dresser, and then on the top is a small crate of my writing things. That box includes all of my utensils, ink bottles, and thank you cards. I used to have them crammed into a small chest but this way I can easily see and organize my writing stuff.
I am so glad that my room is now organized, at least on my side. It is an immense weight off of my shoulders. I could never spend time in my own room because it was so horrifically messy that I would get too stressed being in it. Now I can relax and be on my bed or the floor without too much worry. I love my micro room. I never knew how important it was to just have your own space. I have been sharing my space for my entire life, having a little haven to call my own is amazing.
