I think one thing to consider is "whose memories are these" A lot of the baby clothes and things are the mom's memories, not the childs. I appreciate this video its been helpful while I declutter things!

I am currently in my childhood home decluttering all my leftover stuff as my Mum has been getting annoyed with it. It’s not easy as I so far have kept more than I have gotten rid of, and I have a big maybe pile as well. But I am trying my best. I need to reduce it by 50%.

5:08 This is actually not a bad idea at all. 😆 But unfortunately, nobody did that. 😆

I use my sons graduation tassels as tree decorations at Christmas. There are only two so they don’t really take up room in ornament storage.

like that Friends episode "The One With All The Wedding Dresses" where the girls all went wedding dress shopping but ended up all renting a dress and just hung out in the living room eating junk food and chillin lol. it's a thing, i think you can make it happen if you want to.

blows my mind every time i hear about people journaling, especially that much, cause then theres just soooo much to go thru (like with a huge photo album) if you ever want to re-read things. the only way that ive ever journaled really was simply by doing basic scrap-booking, and i mean basic, like taping a ticket stub or dried plant into a booklet and writing a little context for it.

actually doing under-the-bed storage really annoys me when vacuuming tho so i put those containers in a closet off the floor somewhere if i can

Thank you for documenting your process on decluttering sentimental items. You're right, decluttering is like peeling the layers of an onion. It does get easier over time and you can rid of stuff that was hard to let go over time.

Never was a journaler. Feeling slightly superior I ditched those tassels within a few years of graduation. 🤣

You lost me at the “and when we are all vaccinated “

I will look for your next video,make sure you didn't fall of the steps :).Great job by the wat

My wedding dress was preserved for 35 years and I sent it to a company called unbox the dress and they made my daughters getting ready robe for her wedding 100% from it. I will present it to her next week at her Bridal shower. Also from my dress I had 3 pocket squares made for each of my sons & husband to wear that day and handkerchief for me I have material left over for maybe in the future a christening gown for a grandchild.

There's a walker in that photo about to rip put ur neck😂

"or just swirl it around" No.

the cut off talking about nair 😂

I found this hard! I was like no!!! How can u not keep this? That?!! You are right to let it go…. And I’m encouraged to go through my stuff again… but it was like everyone else’s box with all the same stuff we all hung on to …..

Mine HATE socks They won't wear them any I've tried them all but its cold 😢

My jaw dropped until the end!!! 😂😂 Too funny!

So Action, medical, long term, taxes, and time will tell. How often do you empty/process these?

Wtf was the point of this video? Glutton for attention. Nothing but blah blah with zero information. Humanity is going down the toilet.

I stopped writing in journals years ago, but when I dug them out of the storage boxes and reread them a light went off. Did I really want my grandchildren to read these and know me for the person I was then? No. People change and mature with time, and my journals were not an accurate representation of who I have become. I burned them all!! And it felt SO GOOD to do so.

I literally just went through boxes of school projects saved for me. Through everything out.

Such a great idea to take photos of the photos and make them into photo books! Great space-saver! Never thought of that, so thank you!

Thanks for the great ideas ❤

Liked because you existed in the 90s and clearly understand it was the best ever.

You’re funny! 😊 that’s why it’s high! - of course a nerf gun! I feel your pain! Love the video!

Thanks

I was interested in what you had to say until: "...when we all get vaccinated." At that point, you lost all credibility.

9:51 I have just gone through my journals. The older ones, I just tore out and kept my favorite entries, which were compiled into a life's writings collection. I bought 2 beautiful Dayna Lee journals to transfer these entries into. For my more recent enties, I have a Penzu account, and if I especially love an entry, it gets written in the bound journals.

You know, you could make your daughter's gown part of her (or your room's) decor by either getting it framed or hung from an antique clothing hanger. As for your wedding gown, you can eithewr save it for your daughter, or donate to an organization whioch makes burial gowns for stillborn infants.

I started like you with sentimental items. Fist I had a box for under the bed, a smaller box and some of my bigger sentimental items in my closet. Since then I have now 1 box under the bed and some of my more decorative items hung or placed as decor. Most of it is travel sourverniers from childhood and my shell/crystal/butterfly collection. I sold quite a vew of my butterfly collection and kept 3 frames. Same for my shell collection. I did keep most of my crystals and donated the smaller pieces. Im looking to get a new hobby so I might need to go trough all my items again. Some sentimental items can be a hobby or a part of past you you just cant seem to let go off. One of my most sentimental things are letters from my cousin when we where kids. A story I wrote as a child, a small owl sculpture I got from a overseas friend. I have more stuff but on the top of my head those mean quite a bit to me even trough they are not functional items. I do go trough my pictures sometimes. I took everything out of books and just kept my favorites. I just dont know what to do with my digital photos. Id love to add them to my photo stack. Not selfies or anything. But fotos from moments I care about. I remember being quite sad as a child so to have more phosos of my teen/adult favorites might help. And truefully I never look at my photos on the computer. Its just not the same. I also do not want to be reminded of the pas all the time. I really want to move on and start living in the now.

Thanks for offering such a full tour. It really is helpful for families starting or continuing their decluttering journey to see other examples.

Wow, you are quick and brutal! i wish I could be. I have 200+ boxes in storage to deal with and need to get further faster in my process, complicated by childhood and other traumas of losing everything in fires, etc. I handmade my own wedding dress! For me, I'll keep it in my box of my art. Loving the idea of each person having their own memory box in their closet, because as of now, I have responsibility for everyone's stuff. It will be good to separate out each person's stuff for them to take governance over. ha

I love your idea for everyone having their special keepsake boxes . Definitely going to start this for my family

You lost me at “when we all get vaccinated.” ✌🏼

Boy, this video has hit home. Must tell you, I’ve been watching vids about decluttering, photo organizing, sentimental items and I watched AT LEAST 40 of them. But this one has hit home. Your saved items are exactly what I’ve saved also and I just needed someone to talk out loud about ‘the stuff.’ Thanks so much. I’ve just subscribed and looking forward to binge watching what I’ve missed, no less future videos.❤

Lmao as someone who lived in the north(east) for 20+ years.... never have I thought about having a place to shovel snow from your front and back yard.

Lovely to learn something new and it makes sense.

but like who asked

so like get a good narrow snoblower that throws it waay out front. small but powerful. And where will you store this machone? Side hall or, shloveling distance from back door. Don't want to rely on them neighbors to clear your front sidewalk Waidaminnit front what??sidewalk.

Wow

Subscriber 674 here. Just establishing my territory. Don't mind me.

Wow my journals, I shredded two years ago, there is stuff in those books th hat I wouldn’t want to leave for my husband or kids to go through

I actually lost weight in 2020 but gained it back in the following year due to everything being open again. 😂 I just did my closet declutter yesterday. I took everything out that I haven’t worn. Tried things on and put back the clothes that fit and saved the rest in a different spot. I’m going to try and lose the weight and therefore I’m hanging on to it. But I think I have to make a goal and donate if I don’t get to use it by a certain time. Definitely easier said than done. 😊

I have kept my school stuff too. And the digital stuff is on floppy disk!😮

You have a nice house. Is it a California craftsman? Do you have a video on your drainage system? I’m very curious.😊

Thanks for sharing this, I feel like I was failing with all of the family clutter, but this helped to show me a non-48-hours-crime-show regular family with a similar situation. I'm going thru the process here, and I will watch your videos this week. Thanks!

Hey! For the wedding dress there are places that you can donate h to at then then Into beautiful gowns for babies to be buried in ❤❤

What about light skin black people? There are many light skin people of other races that you can't even tell are black, for one that lunatic who ran into the parade once his hair was cut you can't tell he's "black". Actually moron I have left stores without bags and had them ask for my receipt many times, I've also many times been followed around and one time at hobby lobby even accused.of stealing when I wasn't, I had just had my baby was 1 month p.p amd walking around and got approached, I am white so how did that happen? You are so stupid, just because it hasn't happened to YOU doesn't mean it doesnt happen to other white people, maybe you are privledged but not all white people are
