Small living room simplify

2 years ago

I want to get reclining love seat - end tables if possible. do you see a different configuration of furniture for this room. red chairs help if get company- can move them easily to TV area of room.

im looking for more storage & streamline the dining area & update the hutch area-

possible to re build a more modern clean wall storage built in. i just feel overwhelmed at times with all the pieces i have & maybe better placement.

Bedroom is my craft area. im thinking of having built in made to give me craft storage, clothing storage & keep my TV.

any suggestions to clean up the clutter is welcome. i have a small walk in closet quite full & am considering closet makeover

Thank you for any & all advice

Organizing just neatly hides stuff. It looks like you need to get stuff out of your house.

I would tackle one room at a time. Take everything out that you can move. Take the stuff off the walls, empty the shelves, move the small furniture, rugs, etc. Stage it in the garage or a spare bedroom. Then redecorate by shopping your garage and your other rooms. Only put the things in the room that you love or that serve a purpose. If you are having trouble I would ask a friend or relative whose decor you admire, I'm sure they'd like to help. Good luck, baby steps!

You have a lot of stuff. Too much of everything really (furniture and decor and containers and boxes and….)

Before you begin to think of getting anything else, you really need to consider a serious declutter.

I concur 100%

ive requested an appt. with Clost World.

would you suggest another way to go to get help with my declutter- perhaps a professional organizer?

More storage is going to mean more stuff so that should the last step in your plan. Do you also sleep in the bedroom that is your craft room? Agree with above comments stop looking for new storage pieces until you remove all the unnecessary decor.

Whether you need a professional or not is something only you can answer. If you don’t think you have the ability to declutter successfully (and RUTHLESSLY) on your own, then yes, consult a professional.

But realize the key will be GETTING RID of stuff, not ORGANIZING it.
