For the past 2 weeks, I've been on a secret mission of re-organizing my room.
You see, my room is very small. How small u ask?
This is the draft layout of my room.
Pink: Bed
Orange: Desk
Blue: Chair
Purple: Cupboard
Dark Green: Shelves
Orange: Desk
Blue: Chair
Purple: Cupboard
Dark Green: Shelves
As you can see,there's not much space and I have a lot of stuff. A LOT.
Having said that, I try to make my room as comfy as possible. Because is where I spend my me-time and most of my time. LOL.
I forget to take the before picture, so before I share what I've done to the room, I shall tell you what I didn't like previously.
1. Is always dark. My curtains are black and half of it directly over my table, the other half my bed. I only open the window at the half of my bed. Reason being is very troublesome for me to open and close the window at the side of my table. And so, the curtains that side is always down. If I open it, I will need to get through the trouble of putting it down whenever I change in my room.
2. I don't like my chair. Is very hard for me to just sit still and draw or write, or even watch drama. I need to move a lot! And if I go to my bed, I end up not wanting to sit up again.
3. I have a lot of stuff. With my room so small, I got to maximize the usage of every single space that I have. If not, I'll be hitting and dropping a lot of stuff all day!
After I reorganize my room, I'm pretty satisfied with it. At least most of my concerned are solved.
1. Instead of curtains, I've decorate the window.
My room is not so dark anymore! Is all paper, so light can still shine through! It save me the trouble of putting up and down the curtains.
The other half of the window is untouched, because if both are pasted with cards it will be too dark, so I still need to adjust the curtains accordingly. But most of the time I just leave the curtain down as it is, cause the light through the other half of the window is good enough for me.
2. I sit on my bed instead of the chair. I've basically changed the orientation of my stuff to face towards the bed instead of the chair. My chair has become a place where I charge my iPad and iPhone and also to put my towel! XD.
But with this, is easier for me to take my stuff and it opens up more space too!
When Oyan came to my room for the first time after I redo the room, I told her
"Remember, I'm an artist"
Because my desk is rarely tidy and there's a lot of stuff scattered around.
Let me show you some of the essentials.
my color pens!
A piece of The Tiramisu Hero in my room! With random stuff in it.
New books that yet to be drawn.
Newly drawn books.
Books for me to doodle and write.
My very important stationary.
Books that I read.
And my daily bread.
Calculator for some account keeping.
Ukulele tuner.
And all these are just part of it only! If I show all, it will be too long! XD
Now I can lay comfortable while drawing on my tablet and my butt can move around as much as I like!
3.I make used of the air!! XD Instead of letting my ukulele lying around the room (on the chair, on the floor, on my bed and hanging on my cupboard door knob) I decided to hang it in the air.
Brilliant isn't it?!
I'm loving my room!
