Bring order to

Hello,

Which example make more sense
1.Bring order to my untidy room.
2.Bring my untidy room to order?

There's "bring someone to justice" idiom, and I figured I could possibly use the word "order" instead too, but Google search results show quite a few "bring order to something" examples.

Thanks!
