Looking into Scout's closet made me twitch:
I don't know how he ever finds his clothes. I told him I would get him a bookcase for storage so he could reclaim the closet for clothes. And here is the perfect space:
I had a disc chair at the foot of his bed, but he moved it to over by the window, leaving a space that can be put to better use.
I started by emptying the closet out and giving the shelves a fresh coat of paint, then vacuuming the carpet.
I think the Cubicals system by Closetmaid is perfect in here. It's not fancy furniture, but Scout will not mind. I chose the espresso color with two beige fabric bins and a seagrass bin, just to make it interesting.
Look at all that glorious hanging space!
Three of the stacking baskets can stay in the closet, since they do not obstruct the hanging things. And the basket on the floor is his dirty clothes hamper.
Everything got dusted, trash emptied, bed made, the room got vacuumed. He's old enough to do all of that for himself, but I love having it all spiffy for him when he gets home.

My daughter is in the process of moving out. After that I will be cleaning carpets and painting. I plan to turn it into a guest room.
