- Hello, Lovelies! Today I'm sharing the next episode in my Messy To Minimal series and it's a fun one because I'm working on extreme Decluttering my sister Anna's small apartment!
Minimalism to our family means each item in our home has a purpose and gets used regularly. It's less about the number of items and more about the function of each item and how it contributes to our home. Let me know if you enjoyed this video! I can't wait to take you through the rest of the house as declutter, re-organize and minimalize!

You were very gracious and respectful in speaking about your sisters home and belongings. I think that is key to making the person feel comfortable about having help to declutter!
This was the first thing I noticed and I noticed how her sister felt very comfortable and was able to smile and enjoy this process I love it 🥰
When I remove my freezer food from the original packaging I write the cooking temperature and time in sharpie on the new bag. 😊
Such a great tip! Thanks for sharing! 💛
I cut the instructions off the box and then stick that piece of cardboard in the bag of food! 💛
That is what I do too! Packaging takes up so much room.
Great idea, thank you!!
"A budget of space" really resonated with me. Labeling bins, especially where there's more than one person in the home, is so helpful in keeping the bins organized.
These videos have finally motivated my grandma to get rid of so many things! Our house has been stuffed to the max, cant even walk into either of our garages and the living room has a place to sit thats all and the back bedroom is piled floor to ceiling! I love these videos and am so grateful for you making them! I have been trying for years to make this happen and quarantine mixed with the motivation has finally worked!
You’re a natural at this, Natalie. It was so nice to get to know Anna a bit. You’re lucky to live close to your family. 💛
Where did your daughters dress come from? I love the color and style. I am going to be a Nonna of my first granddaughter soon. My daughter would love that style for her baby.
💛 Not all owner's manuals can be found online. For ones that can't, I scan them into a PDF so that I don't have to have any more hard copies than absolutely necessary.
Thats a really smart idea! I'm glad you shared that
thats such a great idea! thanks for sharing
Thank you for pointing that out! Good to always check before you toss! I buy a lot of things second hand, so I can testify that I cannot always find manuals online. (I currently have a sewing machine I'm trying to figure out without a manual 😫)
@@TarTelperienNumenor My sewing machine was made in the 40s or 50s (a little Singer Featherweight that my mom got in 1969 when she was in high school, and now it's mine), and a few years back we discovered that the middle 6 pages of the manual were missing (it's really hard to thread and do a few other things on it without the manual), so I googled the make and model number, and found a manual for it online (I was really surprised to find it, considering how old the machine is) - someone had scanned one and made a PDF - so I downloaded it and printed the missing pages, and now I have a complete manual for a 60-70 y/o machine that still works great but hasn't been made for decades. I've been unsuccessful with finding some other manuals online, though, so you really never know what you'll find - sometimes you can find what you're looking for, sometimes you can't.
@@SnowySpiritRuby Wow, that's awesome that you were able to find that manual! I've also recently bought an old school Singer machine from the 20's, the kind with the big metal manual foot pedal, I can't wait to get a replacement belt to experiment on it! The machine I was talking about before is a fairly new Baby Lock machine, I'm so surprised I can't find a manual online anywhere! 😫
Natalie, this is like my dream come true, to go into someone else's mess and tidy and organize for them. I've been dreaming of doing this to my parents' house for years, but my mom is pretty much a hoarder so no chance of that. Oh well, everybody likes their space with different amounts of stuff. You did a great job with Anna's space, especially the kitchen!
Maybe present it to your mom as a small project like doing just the bathroom. Go carefully and do a bit of a freshening up, too to really sell it. Maybe offer to paint it a new color as painting bathrooms is usually a small job. If she likes that then you could offer to do something else small like maybe dresser drawers or even a cabinet or two in the kitchen. Offer it with love and be prepared that she may not accept or may not maintain it. Still it's nice to try.
Go watch "A Hoarder's Heart" if she really is a hoarder.
@@itoshiibaka8267 I second your suggestion. She is great at talking about her mindset as a hoarder and man, has she made progress in the past two years ❤️
Idea for sis - save big jars or buy some and put the lentils, dry beans, rice, etc in them. They will look nice on those empty top shelves👏👏
A good tip for donating blankets is take them to your local animal shelter!! I live in northern Atlantic Canada and the SPCA’s love getting blankets during the winter time!
And family shelters
LOVE to see REAL organization videos!!! Thank you for not rushing off to the container store to buy $300 worth of organization stuff!!! 💛💛
Great job! 💛 great tips in all your episodes!
I live in an apartment. My second bedroom is a storage room because I’m when my dad and I moved out of our 2600 sqft home years ago, and being an only child, I have my parents stuff and my stuff because my mom has passed away and my dad is in a skilled nursing facility, so going through stuff is definitely overwhelming! I’ve gotten rid of a lot, but still a lot more to go! Videos like these encourage me to keep going! Thanks!
Just so you know fruit give off a gas that actually will spoil your veggies quicker so it's best to keep them separate if they aren't getting used up with 2-3 days
I love the relationship you have with all your siblings. This is such a fun video!
💛💛💛
I live in an apartment! I love this series so much, it's really inspired my husband and I to find our own version of minimalism! We've lived in our apartment for almost three years, and since quarantine started we've gotten rid of over half of everything we had! Our relatives keep asking where all of our stuff is lol, but it makes life so much more simple!
Loved this video, especially getting to see Anna and see you in a different space!
I would love to see you do this with all of your sisters!
This was so satisfying! Now I want to see you declutter everyone's homes ☺💛
💛 wow! Natalie, now you’re helping other people reach their goals. Soon you might become a professional organizer. Great inspiration. Tip: cut the instructions of the frozen food and store them in the bag with the food. For future tip: put a spare key in a medicine prescription bottle then glue an existing rock from her home. Dig a hole into a plant pot or in front yard. That has helped me so much.
I’m stationed in Japan with my husband, and their houses are much more TINY compared to American style homes so during this quarantine I’m definitely decluttering. 💛
💛 My sister was the messy one when we were children then she got married, has 4 children and is a clean freak!
So this is pretty much me but I’m having my first babes in 2 weeks. And part of my ‘nesting’ is 1. Cleaning 2. ...Cleaning. 3. Washing my babies clothes 🥺😩🥰
Everyone always thought I was the messy one growing up because my bedroom was disorganized, but then I moved out and suddenly the house was a mess and no one could figure out why. 🤭 Guess it didn't occur to them that clothes, floors, and dishes didn't wash themselves.
Isn't it weird at home my room was always a big mess and my 2 sisters same. Now am married for 7 years and my rooms is 90% of the time clean
@@Stevie37 good one
I remember being a newlywed and just not finding space for anything and then having my first and things just shifted I get rid of things i don't need and organize an reorganize just to find space for necessities. So many memories 💛💛💛💛💛
How sweet is Anna!! I would like to see her more in the future if possible. 😊
When I watch a video like this it really motivates me to declutter my house but then I remember that I moved to a new country and a new house so I have absolutely nothing to declutter especially that I have been watching videos like this one for a while
thank you
I never thought about the hot water heater being a fire hazard because in my old apartments they were in my master bedroom closets up against my clothes.
I've moved three times this year from my dorm to back home, to an apartment as my parents were moving and to a new home. I seriously need to figure something out to organize all of the things right now!
💛💛💛💛💛 We did have an apartment for 5 years but now we are buying our first home 🏠🏡🏠 These videos definitely help.
Enjoyed watching the video! Great job! 💛 Not sure if someone else shared this tip, but your new trash bag rolls can be placed inside the bottom of your trash can. This way you can free up space in your closet. 😉
I enjoyed your “budget of space” tip!
It kind of gets my thinking going of my own personal impulse purchases. Every item in my house should have a home. I would like to envision where an item would go in my home before I purchase it. If I would have to make space for it by storing a different item, I don’t have the space for it!
We’re living in a fixer upper house so some areas are still “under construction”. I remember the apartment life changes especially with storage but decluttering helps a lot!
Can’t wait to see this whole video. Hello Anna 👋🏼💛
She gave me a good idea when you don’t have a pantry! I already have a bookcase. But this one from ikea would work much better 💛
I have had a bookcase as a pantry for years! It’s a godsend! Another tip: get bins and lazy Susans for the bookcase so u can organize even further. I also have my spices on a lazy Susan in the cabinet. They make them in a lot of different diameter sizes, I am able to fit two side by side in my typical sized cabinet!! Good luck!🤍☀️ Sending Positive Vibes from South Florida 💋
My husband and I have been married for 2 months now and we live in a townhome! I love organizing all of our things and going through them. 💛
Put the sourdough starter in the fridge. Then you only have to feed it once a week, and it saves you a ton of flour on feeding
Perfect motivation for today. We're in the process of turning our guest room into a dedicated homeschool space! Although we are pretty minimal, the closet in there has become the catch all spot. Loving this series so much! 💛💛💛
My favorite is also yellow! Love how you help out your sister, let us get to know her, and inspire/motivate us to clean - all in one video!! Love this!
She could now get rid of the brown shelf in the kitchen.
💛 I really admire you, Natalie. You have a gift for transforming messy places and spaces into clean, peaceful-to-the-eye ones.
I really look up to be like you when I have my own place 💛
💛 please don't ever stop messy to minimal. I find most organizing and purging videos repetitive, but not yours! Yours always motivate me and I find them sooooo soothing 😍 also I enjoy the sister love I have 3 sisters myself.
Wow such great work! Good sister for coming to help! It’s so much better to have someone come in who has fresh eyes to give you new perspective.
💛 such a great motivational video! It’s amazing how seeing a space through someone else’s eyes (or even better having them help you) can make a huge difference in what you can get rid of and how to make things more functional.
Lately You’ve been inspiring me to reorganize everything in our house 🤗
Every day I’ve been trying to add one small project to my daily chores 💛💛
Oh I need this motivation! My family of three is living in my parents' guest apartment while we save for a home and it gets a little crowded if we aren't minimalistic enough!
I've watched your videos since you were pregnant with the boys! I went to high school in your home town and originally watched for nostolgia and because you are just so sweet. My partner and I canceled our April wedding we had been planning for over a year due to Covid. Things have a way of working out and we are using the money saved to purchase our first home. After 5 years of apartment living we are thrilled for this next step. Watching your messy to minimal series have been so motivating! All this to say, "hello" and that I feel a particular affinity with your sister! Best of luck on her exciting new chapter 💕
Brings back all the memories of when I was first married and apartment life 😍
This is great. I’m loving this series. Totally making me rethink many spaces in my home. 💛
How fun! Love how your family is active in your channel! 💛 so motivational!
Your video popped up as "recommended" and I am excited to watch your previous videos as well!
I love this series. This one was so fun! 💛
I'm on the computer so "yellow heart" hahahah
kisses from Brasil!
I dont know if your on a mac or a windows. but if you have a windows you just press the "windows" + "period/dot" on your keyboard at the same time and you will get emojis up 💛💛
We just moved from an apartment to a house, so I’m excited to watch this one! 💛💛
Love these videos you have been doing on decluttering💛 it really does inspire me on getting my house cleaned and organized
These videos make me want to be more organized! The final results are always so satisfying 💛
Great video, ladies! What a strong sibling resemblance between you gals!
So nice of you to organize your sister’s apartment. 💛
How fun!! 💛what a great sister you are to help out and so blessed to be so close to family.
This is my first video of you that I am watching. You are great at decluttering. I started last week decluttering. It’s made me so happy. Thank you for your videos.
Really enjoyed a different perspective! Great job! 💛
Love watching this series!! 💛💛💛
I’m moving into my first apartment in a few months and I’m definitely using this as inspiration💛
This was so fun! Definitely needed the cleaning motivation today! 💛💛💛💛
So fun to watch, I literally cleaned/ decluttered as you did!
💛 love that you’re keeping this going
💛 this series is so satisfying!
Love seeing you with your sisters! 💛
💛💛💛💛 love these videos so much!!! I hope you keep making these videos!!!
It's always so satisfying watching your videos 💛
i love this series! thanks for the video, Natalie!
Finally getting a chance to watch this and can I just say I really admire your sister’s commitment to gnocchi 😂😍❤️
Oooo I’m excited for this!!
This was a great video!! Huge motivation to do some decluttering 💛💛💛💛
I love all your videos. Wohooo!! Helping a sister out. 💛
love this video! Its so nice to see a new space in your videos! You both did great and it looks so good.
I’ve gained so much inspiration and motivation from you! We are about to move from 1 apartment to another so this is a perfect video for me 💛
💛💛💛 love this series and working from beginning to end
Hi Natalie! I started watching your videos yesterday and today I finished watching your messy to minimal series and loved it! 🥰 🥰🥰
💛 love all the videos and inspiration. Thanks for doing a small space for us living in those smaller areas.
You have inspired me to declutter my coat closet, I own about 60 jackets and about 16 winter coats.. Then I will declutter my bedroom closet, last 😕 Thank you for inspiring and motivating me to do something that should have been completed 10 years ago. You made this task look so simplistic. 😊 This was a very inspiring video. Gotta go, I have work to do 😉. Thank you😇
If you can, donate the rest or give to friends/family.
Have really been enjoying this series! We are quite close in age and it always feels like catching up with a friend! I live in a small two-bedroom apartment and have tried to be organised but it gets a little disheartening with a messy flatmate. My dream is to have my own house one day and be really organised. These videos have been so inspirational and motivating! Thank you Natalie 💛
I love how well you and your sister get along. 💛 And you look SO much alike, almost like twins! 😊
💛 I have loved this series!
So much more functional! Great work!!
We live in a home out in the country on 8 1/2 acres! We are getting our homestead going, so have a garden, pigs, milk cow and chicks so it’s hard to keep up with the house. But I majorly simplified our belongings about 2 years ago and it’s amazing how much that helps! Love your messy to minimal series! 💛
Love it! I love the BOND you two have!
Enjoyed watching💛 love you messy to minimal videos.
💛 love all your messy to minimal videos
Wow this is nice helping your sister.it looks so much more practical
I'm moving into an apartment in a month and it will be the best blessing I've gotten so far!!
I love your videos! You are very motivating!💛
Great job with this whole series. 💛💛💛 And Anna’s hair looks great at that length!
We have a 900ft apartment and I am struggling so hard lately with getting rid of stuff this has come at such a good time ♡
There are 3 of us in 1250 sq ft and we have been here for 12 years! The stuff has over taken us and I don’t know where to start!🤪
I always enjoy getting to see you with your family. All of you are beautiful people inside and out. Also I love your sister's name (wink wink). I'm so glad that you are finding ways to continue with the messy to minimal series because it's my favorite and inspires me so much since I'm in the process of doing a big declutter and re organization in my own home 💛
Thanks for the motivation 💛 It would be fun to see you in your other sister’s homes or your parents’ home!
Marvellous job, thank you for sharing this with us for the get up and go inspiration.
💛💛💛 love this episode!
Anna’s skin is flawless, so pretty!
Love these videos so much! 💛
Love seeing Anna in videos, she’s so fun! 💛 I know it’s of course her decision but she should be in more videos!!
I have watched every one of your messy to minimal episodes 💛
Inspiring! Just decluttered four drawers, three utensil holders, and all the spices--some from the 70's and 80's!!! Thanks
💛💛💛 I have started my own declutter of my apartment I love all your videos
I wish I were so organized!! A tip I have, is with boxed items that you toss the boxes for, clip out the cooking instructions and put them in a magnetic basket on the fridge (I use one for lockers), but go through it once in a while. Saves on lookin stuff and getting distracted ehile cooking.
💛💛💛💛💛💛 Love your organizational tips!!!!
