We often have to remind our children to take care of their responsibilities. Brush your teeth; do your homework; take out the trash. But the sound of one reminder echoes louder than the rest when you’re considering putting your Northwest Indiana home up for sale : Clean your room!

So you do your best to help support this request of the youngest members of your family. You de-clutter the house. You pack some items away in anticipation of a quick sale and a timely move . You’ve even completed your garage sale. Yet there still seems like there’s just too much stuff in your children’s bedrooms. Maybe all the action figures, matchbox cars, dress up clothes and art supplies aren’t the problem. Maybe it’s not all that stuff . Maybe the real issue is the lack of neat and tidy places to tuck everything away in.

Here are a few helpful tips to increase bedroom storage for the kids:

Hanging, behind-the-door, shoe bag . Get shoes, sandals, cleats, slippers, and flip flops out from underfoot or lost under the bed. And here’s a bonus, these hanging shoe bags are not just for shoes anymore! Here’s a fun place to keep toy cars and superheroes, and anything else shoe-sized or smaller.

Under the bed storage bins. Great for all sorts of loose toys, off season/winter clothing. Helps keep the mess at bay by organizing this often forgotten space.

Corner cabinet. Besides under the bed or the floor of the closet, the favorite place where kids the world over love to toss their stuff is simply in the corner of the room. Banish that mound of clutter once and for all! So whether you’re in Chesterton , Valparaiso , Crown Point , or St. John , install a corner cabinet that is your catch-all solution for that unexpected short-notice We have a buyer who wants to see your home right now showing call.
