What is a good way to make space in a small room? (kbin.social)

My room feels cluttered all the time, and I'm wondering what would be a good way to try and make some space.

I don't consider myself a particularly messy person, it's mostly just an assortment of random items on my dressers, cables, etc that I just can't seem to find the right spots for.

I've tried a lot of organizational books and storage solutions and stuff and the most effective thign I found was to take the little quiz here: https://clutterbug.me/what-clutterbug-are-you-test

It's a set of 4 organizational types profiles that'll help you rule out pieces of advice that will NEVER work for you and save you a lot of time. The site and that lady's books will have some advice tailored to the profile you match. Like, I'm a Butterfly which means that closed closets and cabinets and opaque storage boxes don't work for me, I have to have everything out and visible to organize it and remember it's there. So I focus on advice about that, like hanging things from the wall and open shelving. Other people, though, just consider that visual stress.
