The following weekend is the citywide garage/yard sale so I hope to maybe sell some items to pay for the cosmetic updates, and make room to store what we may keep.SAMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16485146123969622896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-1064147210158767322017-04-13T02:13:25.469-05:002017-04-13T02:13:25.469-05:00Thanks for the mention...a trip to Minnesota would...Thanks for the mention...a trip to Minnesota would be wonderful!<br />Being able to clear the room is a brilliant option to have. It allows you to see the room clearly in terms of space and what will fit where, plus it prevents you adding too many things back in as you don't want to clutter up your room. The first thing is to make a decision about the spare furniture and then move it out and store it elsewhere if you are going to keep it. Could it go in the garage?Scarlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01729719876504930455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-56545112150761817262017-04-11T08:55:35.213-05:002017-04-11T08:55:35.213-05:00There is a whole twin suit of furniture, plus the ...There is a whole twin suit of furniture, plus the child's desk (but I think both desks will maybe stay.

As for the furniture it sounds like you just need to decide on the shelf, DD's headboard and dresser and mirror, and the trunk. Everything elsr you are planning on keeping in the room? Could you put the shelf where your computer armoire is now and get rid of the armoire? I would place the trunk in a bedroom for extra storage, i have a cedar chest at the end of our bed for storage. That leaves the headboard, dresser and mirror. Do you have space in a garage or elswehere to store out of the way if you don't want to get rid of it? Just some suggestions. I know that taking on a task like that seems insurmountable but once you do it you will love the spaxe created I am sure. :-)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02245921501363936089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-75596158251463661672017-04-10T06:15:07.166-05:002017-04-10T06:15:07.166-05:00Since we bought it, the bottom has held extra scho...Since we bought it, the bottom has held extra school supplies.

I feel your pain. I have a trunk like yours and it sits at the foot of our bed in the master bedroom. I keep extra pillows and comforters in it. How are you liking the vinyl plank floor? I think I may want that in my office, but I'm not sure yet.Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328674280714013955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-70158906135822366232017-04-10T01:26:57.308-05:002017-04-10T01:26:57.308-05:00I agree with Hawaii Planner!
