my bedroom is organized!

after living in my house for just about a year, i finally have my room organized! while our house is 2400 square feet, my personal space is only an 11x11 box.  doesn't sound too difficult to arrange right? wrong. like i have blogged before, i have a lotttt of clothes so i need a lot of furniture to hold them as well as all my other junk.  

i originally expected to be doing some work at home, so i bought a desk, but over the past year, that has not been the case, so why not use what little space i have the best way i can?

a couple weeks ago, i went on a double date to ikea and bought this stuff:

expedit in black-brown

and 4 pjas baskets

and i love them!

here are the before and afters of my room:

before... with much less usable space 

and my old desk

and after: way better!

where the desk used to be

here's what is in all those boxes:

belts, gloves, winter hats

arts and crafts

clutches, wallets, and handbags

and everyone needs a junk bin: hair dye, golf spikes, headphones, umbrella, koozies,
furniture wipes, candy, golf tees, and so much more

and here is what i already had in my room:

hemnes daybed in white - awesome under-bed storage and it expands to a king 
so my friends don't have to sleep on the couch when they come to visit!

malm nightstand in black-brown

malm chest in black-brown - my tv also sits on it

malm vanity in black-brown - so obsessed with this. the fold-up top stores all
my jewelry and i can see it all at all times so i wear it more
