My six kids all lived in one bedroom, it was chaos so I gave up my bedroom & now sleep on the sofa, I’m doing my best
A MUM has revealed how her six kids all lived in one bedroom in their council house so she decided to get creative to give them more space.
The single mum uploaded a video showing how she gave up her bedroom so that she could split her kids over two rooms.
Taking to her @the.wisdom.family7 TikTok account, she explained: “Imagine having six kids in one bedroom.
“Not no more guys.
“So now we have three in one and three in the other.
“We are in a two-bedroom house and yes I sleep downstairs in my living room, so what?”
The mum showed how she made one room into a girls room with faux flowers and a storage unit with different drawers for their clothes.
She joked: “We are keeping it clean, keeping it tidy and it needed doing.
“They are getting bigger.”
The stylish girls room even had a huge mirror for getting ready and the mum showed her “toilet roll hack” of adding the empty cardboard tubes to her curtain folds so they sit perfectly.
Her video has racked up over 2,000 likes, and people were quick to praise her hard work.
One said: “I just love how you’re making the most out of your space. So humble it’s admirable your so deserving of your bigger home.”
The mum replied: “Thanks hun I appreciate it… I’m trying my best… it’s the most I can do.”
Another person wrote: “Absolutely beautiful you have a beautiful home..a big home doesn’t break happiness as long as everyone happy and healthy and safe that’s a fab home.”
A third commented: “That’s what mothers do I think it’s amazing you sleep downstairs so your kids can be comfortable. Such an amazing mum.”
