This bedroom makeover was highlighted in The Washington Post Home Section, in a feature called "House Calls."

As written by Jura Koncius of The Washington Post:
"So we brought in a professional organizer to help straighten things out. Scott Roewer of Solutions by Scott paid a visit to Maureen's room, then returned days later with an arsenal of organizing tools and a can-do attitude. He and Maureen spent five hours sorting through almost everything in the room into piles labeled keep, toss and donate. "Okay, when was the last time you looked at this?" Roewer asked, holding up a large SpongeBob doll. Into the donate pile.

Roewer guided Maureen through the process of making decisions, putting like items together, adding baskets and bins to hold hair ribbons and craft supplies and making sure daily necessities were front and center, with once-in-a-while stuff elsewhere.

"We don't expect her room to look like the Pottery Barn Teen catalogue," he says. "Of course she will kick her flip-flops off when she walks in, and she might leave them there for days. But we can help her set up systems to hopefully have a place for all her stuff if she wants to put it there."
