  • I went into today thinking this was going to be a Clean and Organize video and then it turned into a full on Declutter Day Video! A lot of stuff has accrued over time and I need to get back to maintenance decluttering so my house doesn’t feel overwhelmed by stuff and can be easier to clean and maintain going forward. So get motivated and ready to declutter and organize all day!
    I have affiliate links below to items I mentioned throughout the video as well as commonly asked about items and links below that :)

    You should put pictures of what goes in each fabric bin on the outside of them. That way the kids can easily know where to put things when they clean up.

    What I do if I have extra gifts is put them in a bin and use them as my "just incase" gifts. As in just incase I can't get around to getting a gift for someone or someone buys my daughter a gift, I can be like "oh we have you one too". Helped a ton this Christmas, and I buy all year long.

  • @DanceInTheRain4God
    @DanceInTheRain4God 2 года назад +31

    If you can add picture labels with the words to the toy storage it would probably help a lot (especially the piece toys!) But even the cube bins if you want them to stay more organized. Kids tend to be visual, and of course less detail oriented... I think you are winning with the toys being off the floor! Great work on the consistency and expectations! It could also have been just pure over stimulation from so many piece toys that kept them from feeling that their space was within their control. Anyways, rambling but I love your videos so much! I hope picture labels might be an option! :)

    • @sweetpeapotato6861
      @sweetpeapotato6861 2 года назад +4

      I second this Mai. Break out that Cricut and put some picture labels on the bins. I feel like maybe the boys shoved stuff in the kitchen unit because they weren't sure where to put it

    • @likewhatevercrazy

    Why are de-cluttering videos so satisfying? lol!
    I emptied my dresser a few years back and gave it back to my Mom. I also keep my pj's, underwear, etc in a rolling plastic cart with 3 drawers (I used to keep my crafts in these). Now all of my clothes are in my closet and it frees up so much space in my room!

    I have cubes for toy storage and I noticed that my kids clean up easier when the bins are half the height of the cube shelf so they can see what’s inside. I prefer the full bin for the esthetic, but it is so much easier when I say “time to tidy!”

    I live in a suburb of Denver Colorado and I was at the Dollar Tree yesterday. Everything was still $1.00 but I think with how much everything has gone up. If everything went to 1.25, I'd be ok with that. It's always been my opinion that if you don't want kids to dump their stuff into a bin or toy box then don't have a bin or toy box available for them.

    You have some of the most motivating decluttering content on RUclips! Maybe it would be helpful for your sanity to reduce one of the cube shelves and only have one. I have a 19 month old and a little one on the way and if I didn't rotate I would go insane. I do Montessori so I would only do one toy or activity per cube but you are fantastic!

    Target has bins in the bathroom section by Brighthouse. I replaced the fabric bins my daughter destroyed in her toy organizer with them, and they are excellent. Not quite as tall as the fabric cubes, but still hold the bigger chunky toys without issue. And they’re durable. I’m talking she dumps them out and stands on them like a step stool. Best part, they’re $5 and $7 depending on size. I would link, but idk if RUclips would let me.

I picked up the exact same one (thinking I know it fits) and the cost was £1.50. 50% increase with no price labels in the store this is how you get caught out if you buy a handful of items. Grrrrr

    We have had the 3-5 dollar items for years. So far we haven’t gone up to 1.25, but I know it’s just around the corner. They probably have to raise prices because they can barely find employees

    Was about to ask about those bins, than you said they are unavailable. That's a bummer. Those would be perfect for me! Buying all the same socks is a game changer. So no matching.
