Boring room?

Do you think you have a boring room? Is something missing? Follow these 3 easy steps and find out what your room really needs! All copyright goes to the rightful owners of the pictures. (Not me)
 
 
 
Step 1. Theme or color scheme?
First your room needs a little bit of an idea. Also you need a color scheme. Choose 2 or 3 colors that match each other! Something like blue and white or turquoise gold white, or hot pink white and black make good color combinations for a room. Also remember to include white with any few colors that you choose. Any color with white looks good! 



 
 
Step 2. Furniture
You never want to have a huge bedroom with a little bit of furniture or a small room with tons of furniture. If you have a big room, you should go for more furniture. For a large room you should include a bed, a nightstand, some shelving units, and maybe a cute chair that matches! For a small room, you should try your best to put the least furniture you can into the space. If you have loads of furniture in a small space, you will make your room look cluttered and even smaller. Try to get rid of extra furniture that could be unnecessary like chairs, desks, lamps, bulky storage components, and maybe even your dresser.  I have a small room myself and I had to move my dresser out of it and I could just use my closet instead! Just play around with it. 
 
Step 3. KEEP IT CLEAN!
Make SURE you can dedicate some time every day to do a quick tidy every night or so to keep things in check. If you have a nightstand, desk or dresser that eventually builds up a pile of random papers, clothes, or knick knacks, find a dedicated place for your papers, clothes, or knick knacks!  
If you have a room full of piles, it won't look good. Take a look at some of these ideas on how to store some extra stuff neatly!
 
If you have homework or drawings laying around, use a binder! Use multiple binders!
Office supplies? Use one of these! If you want to make one, simple! Just get a clean and empty jar or soup can, cover it with paper, tie a bow around it that matches your color scheme and boom! A supply holder!
 
 
Jewelry clutter?

 
You could just buy a corkboard and put colored thumb tacks into it and call it a jewelry holder as well!
 
And never forget that shoeboxes are a girl's best friend!
 
I hope your room looks great! Thanks for reading and see ya next time!

For today's post I have chosen Rainbow loom crafts! I have a Rainbow Loom and it is SO fun! Well, once you get a loom and some rubber bands, you need to organize them first. Here is a picture for example. Credit from where I got the pictures is below each image. And if you wish to make some bracelets, check out the cool  tutorial videos below the pictures!

You need a way to organize your bands. You can buy a cheap organizer and organize that way or you could fill a plastic baggie with each color and label them!

If you are a beginner, I suggest you start with the "single"
Its the easiest one. This usually takes just a couple of minutes to make
 .

The next bracelet you should try is the "Fishtail". This one is also very easy. You only need two pegs to make it! The Fishtail usually takes about 15 minutes to complete.

Although it looks hard, this one is easy too! Its called the "Triple Single".
If you want to make this one, go for it! But be cautious and make sure you've looped all of the bands before you take it off the loom. This one takes about 15-20 minutes to complete!

When you get really good, you can try these challenging bracelets!
