What’s the most cluttered spot in your home right now - or the space you’re most proud of decluttering? 🏠 Share below and let’s tackle it (or celebrate it) together-one messy space at a time! Rah, rah, rah!
Our master bedroom is the most cluttered currently. We move in 40 days... and the clutter always migrates to this mostly hidden space. I am not tackling that space this week. Instead, focusing on my very full bookshelves in the dining area😬
Embarrassed to say, my bedroom floor. It became my dumping ground for paper and everything else. But first I have to tackle the snow and ice I woke up to.
It's amazing that no matter how much we've decluttered, there's always more, as our lives change, and new things come in to replace the old, and so on. Decluttering truly is never done, but, thankfully, it no longer has to be overwhelming, as you continue to demonstrate! Thank you!
I found the FlyLady system and you in January 2017 - You explained the system so well and were posting the 31 Baby Steps - it made it all “click” and you were so kind when I asked questions 😊. Decluttering is a never ending process but not overwhelming when done little by little. Thanks for the motivation Diane!!!!
Paper is consistently my downfall! Grateful that you mention recycling. So many channels do not honour the environment and I believe that anyone who has access to recycling/donating/swapping should be encouraged to be mindful and responsible. Thanks for doing just that! ❤from Canada 🇨🇦
I have a very large walk in closet. Somehow everything ends up in there. I spent the last week organizing and decluttering. Three large garbage bags later, it’s all neat and tidy. I feel so proud every time I walk in there. Thanks for the motivation
Good job! As someone who downsized drastically two years ago, I applaud you for not waiting until the moving van has been booked to get rid of stuff! I had already found your channel about a year before we decided to move, so I had a head start. So many people wait and then it’s a nightmare!
Hi Diane. My mission this month is to pare down in my storage basement area. The floor needs to be resealed so stuff needs to be sorted and moved out. I was able to pass on my crib and linens to a lovely couple having their first baby. They are new to the country. My last grandchild is in a bed now so no more need. A work colleague gave it to me so I was happy to pass it on for free. I have de Christmased today so now I can face that next project! Cheers.
The Fly Lady system was confusing to me until I found your videos. I have been following you for years now and am thrilled with how streamlined my home and life are. Now I have time for those special projects and fun hobbies like reading. Thank you, Diane!🦋🦋🦋
I’ve been doing a maintenance declutter these last couple of weeks. It is so much quicker and feels good when you realize how much has already gone from your home.
My kitchen thanks you! You know, when I first subscribed a few years ago, I’d start each week feeling daunted by the self-imposed obligation to clean the week’s target area. These days, I find that I get a real lift as I anticipate how inviting each mini-environment will seem after five days of sustained glow-up. Thank you! By the way, I’ll bet I’m not the only subscriber who’s already imagining your view of the canal.
I don’t remember how I found Diane but I thank the stars I did! It’s been at least since 2019 and following her has made every move and opportunity so much easier. Coming home is a blessing instead of depressing. Keep it up; I depend on your enthusiasm and timely encouragement.
Hi Diane. I found you in 2020 and using the Flylady principles literally changed my life of organizing and cleaning my house. I made it my own but the principle is the same. I watch you weekly and I am so inspired. Keep up the good work. I, to am 57 yrs old so I feel comfortable with you
Your videos are so motivating for me, we are empty nesters as well and I definitely want to declutter and downsize! in 2025! SOOOOO with that being said I am happy to say from January 2 to January 5 so far I have donated 34 items, sold 2 items, gave 18 items mainly unused makeup and brushes to our daughter, recycled a grocery bag of paper, shredded a grocery bag of paper and tossed a 1/2 a bag of trash! Thank you Diana!!!!
I’m ramping back up my decluttering. Over the holidays, I counted unboxing all the packages and getting the cardboard into recycling as my declutter for the day. Back to all the stuff behind closed doors!🎉🎉🎉
Hi Diane, today I am working on my past calendars/journals. When my parents were in the nursing home and their passing. My husband has since passed and I am ready to let go of these since they make me sad. I don't need to remember all the details. Anything important, I will place with important paperwork. I am ready to move forward with happy memories. Here is to 2025!!
I simply love that you found your son's note. I was cleaning out and found a couple of notes my two sons wrote. These were for Thanksgiving back in 1996 !!! The notes contained what they were thankful for. I even found mine and hubbies, too. Such memories, their keepers for sure!! Go you! Go me! Saying hello from snowy icie KY USA... brrr ❄️ 🧊 🥶
Rather than adding this video to my watch later playlist, I started the video and decided to declutter the top drawer of my hutch. It has cookbooks and miscellaneous items I like to have easy access to. 15 minutes later and I am done! My fantasy self keeps thinking I will cook from recipes but I have had some of the books for over 20 years and never opened them. I live alone so cooking a large meal is just not for me. I kept my Better Homes and Gardens book and a notebook for handwritten recipes, but all the rest are going to the library for donation. I will also be donating some smaller things. Yay me! Thank you for these shorter videos, I am looking forward to decluttering ,ore with you in2025.
Most cluttered spot? The sewing/craft/guest room/office. I am both proud of how far I have come and overwhelmed by how much is still to be done. Goal set for daily sewing in 2025, weekly work on the computer, and monthly crafting. I've got this. So far.😉
Yesterday, I decluttered in my guest room where I have books and toys for visiting children. I homeschooled our children, and have a beautiful set of hardback Amish readers. I know they need to be decluttered but I couldn’t bear to part with them. Today, as you were holding those silver ornaments, I thought you would keep them. Your thought process about passing them on to your friend really resonated with me. I decided to contact a young mom who is homeschooling to see if she can use these books. If not, I’ve decided to just let them go. A big decision! ❤
Im organizing as I unpack! we said we were going to buy a smaller townhome and sell our house soon well that soon turned into offering on one nov 7 closed dec 6 and sold our home and closed on it jan 3! We did it!!! Mortgage free and totally downsized! Figuring out the bathroom cabinet now while watching! yay!!!
Happy new year to all of you🙂 I have spend most of the weekend decluttering in my office/guest room. I had a box with letters, christmas & birthdays cards. I read them all, and saved the best ones. So fun to read and remember🥰 And I had a box with negatives from when I had a camera. Looked through them all (thousends),saved the importend ,and put them in order. These 2 boxes has been hunting me for years - so I am very happy now. The rest of the office is very much in order🥰
My study is the messy area. Stuff jammed in the cupboard. Thanks for the motivation. I’m starting to go through the house again. I regularly de-clutter. These past few months I have stopped. Time to get back to it. I donated three bags of items this week. More to go 😊
I did a pantry tidy up - all the Christmas baking and kids home on vacation had made it a bit of a mess. Nice to have it in order and know what I have. Thanks for the video!
The basement is the most cluttered, but I'm feeling under the weather and will tackle that another day. Today, I might do the top of the refrigerator that I've been meaning to get to. Or I'll allow myself a day of rest and do it in the next day or two when I'll hopefully be feeling better. Today was also the day to put away Christmas. Now it'll be tomorrow or Wednesday for that as well. Thank you so much for your continued encouragement and inspiration!
I always find something to declutter when Diane shows up to the party 🎉 10 items gone from magazine style recipe books, bowls and a plant that has seen better days. Thanks Diane ❤
Thank you for the inspiration. I’ve cleaned out the fridge/freezer and decluttered the pantry. Two boxes of out of date items and loads more space so I can see everything. 🎉
I decluttered my kitchen table - correspondence, dates for the diary, appointments etc. Just my diary and a couple of decorative pieces. It looks fab 🎉 Woooohoooo!
Great video Diane! I agree, just because someone is nice doesn’t mean it’s right for you. Recently I inherited some dishes and though they are lovely, I didn’t need them and they didn’t fit my style. I kept a small sugar jar for a keepsake but the rest I decluttered😊.
Thank you Diane, I’ve fallen by the wayside lately. It’s a new year and I have new vigour and with your help I know I will get some more serious decluttering done. Woohoo! BTW, I hadn’t heard of the Fly Lady System until I began following your channel about 4 or 5 years ago. 😊
Diane, love your shirt, "Bisous". Currently working on decluttering books/cookbooks, my stand alone cabinet with small kitchen appliances, next hall closets/dishes. Next weekend, I will work in the master suite. I am determined!! 🎉🎉🎉
Watching your video motivated me to get up & work for 15 minutes. I made a cup of tea & worked in my pantry. Thanks for the motivation & encouragement ❣️
Trying to work on the neglected "game room". Plus, time to put away Christmas decorations and going through decor that has not been used in the past several years. Thanks for the motivation! Been "flying" for 25 years and found you 4 years ago and you have really made a difference with your explainations and focused videos. Thank you‼️ And Happy New Year 🎉
I’m so excited right now! We do the same thing! I have fun old notes from my kids that I’ll keep in the back of different cupboards. Then I get to find them from time to time. ❤️
My bedroom is my decluttered win. I need to work on my pantry and decorations cabinet. Thanks so much for your videos! You are a bright spot in my day.🎉🎉
Put away all the christmas decorations and done my home blessing, daffodils on the table to brighten things up. Plan to go through the kitchen pantry this week. Done some seasonal batch cooking so good stock of meals on standby in the freezer. Love the flylady system i don't follow it slavishly but its always a good starting point for the week. Thanks for all your motivation i don't watch your videos until i've done some jobs.
I’m been consistently decluttering through the zones for over a month now which I’m really proud of. I don’t think I’ve ever cycled through the zones before. I have a new perspective which is far less pressurised. I just take 15-30 min in the zone we’re in and declutter an area and/or clean. Simple - who knew?!!! 😂😂 Thanks for all you do 🥰
I'm really happy to start my day with one of your videos for inspiration and to sponge up some cheerleading; morning routine, drop the kid off at school, have a coffee with Diane, and then starting work in that week's zone 😊
My entry way is cluttered and a hot mess. I decluttered my kitchen this past weekend and it’s a breath of fresh air! Will tackle my entry this week, as it is the first and last space I encounter and holds much weight on my psyche.
Thank you Diane for the support and encouragement. I think I get a new idea every time I listen to one of your videos. I need to declutter my beloved art journals! 😮 I’ve just decided I’ll photograph my best pieces and then turn them into cards to send to friends. 😅
I am working my way around my kitchen decluttering all the cupboards this week - doing one a day. Today is the under sink cupboard definitely the most cluttered!
Cluttered office & bedroom. We were down with the flu before and after Christmas. I finally had some energy to vacuum most of the floors this afternoon! Spent an hour doing that, cleaned & organized my desk yesterday, tidied the bedroom and did laundry the past couple of days, slowly pulling things back together. Still making nutritious meals each day & keeping up with dishes & laundry, put away Christmas yesterday (officially the 12th Day of Christmas!). And you’re at 95k! Rah rah rah!!
My hubby and I are also in the process of downsizing. I find it scary/daunting and exciting in equal measure. Would love to hear more about how you are coping with the emotional side of it. Love your videos. Always inspiring. Many thanks.
I found you because the fly lady’s website never had the lock symbol meaning a secure site. I gave her site up and have been following you for years. Then I discovered you on RUclips and look forward to your postings. You are so positive and make the system so easy to use. I do things my own way but with fly lady principles. ❤🎉❤
The most cluttered spot in our house is our finished basement, but that is my husband's domain so the next most cluttered spot in our house is my office, which is mostly my stuff. I am starting to feel overwhelmed again but I am going to just do a bit every day and try to get ahead of things this year. 🙂
Hi Diane. Thanks for another quick & cheery video. Between your maintenance/whittling methods & a Christmas Space Maker Method binge, I’ve realised I need to focus on very small areas both for my own paper decluttering and for helping (encouraging) my parents to declutter our whole house. Would you believe we decluttered about 6 full sacks of Christmas paraphernalia this year and somehow still have 39 different containers in the loft?! BUT I have now fully catalogued it all: what’s in each box, size of each box (helps with stacking), access priority & timing (if we get tired, we leave the low priority stuff that’s at the back). One of my mottos for this year is “progress is progress” & this is an example already. Also, I confess to making a mental note of what my quick but big decluttering wins would be once my parents are ready for those suggestions (Christmas specific dinner plates, I’m coming for you and my shoulder wants revenge!).
I did a major decluter before we downsized to just the things I loved and used. It made moving so much simpler! Even after I've found even more to let go of. I couldn't be happier!
Good morning from Montana Diane! I am moving too and I appreciate your videos as you go through your items in order to declutter for your new home and life stage.
Hi Diane.. I’ve followed and decluttered with you for over five years. My house looks pretty good but each passing year I find that I need less and less. I feel calmer and so much happier. Thank you. 👏🏻👏🏻
I’m going to tackle my buffet unit tomorrow…….it’s a nightmare I decluttered my whole house and attic in 2024. Starting my second round, it’s easier and I am more decisive this time. I’m amazed how much I hung on to last year!!!
We got a jump start on new year bu decluttering four cabinet shelves in our den at fhe end of December. Today we put away our Christmas mugs and glasses. I find it easier to put up and take down Christmas decorations over the course of three or four days, doing 20-30 minutes a day. I feel good about the new yrar...thanks to you, Dianne 👍🎉🙂
I have the “bags” with put away, recycle and donate somewhere, but I don’t know where 😅. I moved 3 years ago. Tossed some things but still a lot off things in our home. I found your RUclips channel many years ago now, when I was looking for a cleaning system. I think that fly lady and TOMM good options are. It’s hard for me to persist the systems. I try to have an organized home and life but it’s hard for me. But I’m always trying and starting again. Thank you so much for your videos. I like them a lot!
As you’re sorting through your stockpile of artificial flowers keep a few on hand with your gift bows. I’ve recently seen (and copied) using a small bunch of colorful artificial flowers on a package wrapped in kraft paper with natural twine or raffia in place of ribbon. It makes a pretty and unique “natural” theme package.
Go us! I decluttered my essential oil collection by about half. It was my biggest area of excess and I was absolutely dreading it. When I set certain criteria for decluttering (e.g., donate duplicates and anything that doesn't smell nice to me), then it cuts down on the decision fatigue a lot.
Hi Diane, thanks for the motivation as always 😊 Me & my partner will hopefully be moving soon so I appreciate all the help in decluttering as much as I can ❤️

I am finishing my bedroom and am working on the bathrooms. I helped my housemate with the floor of his closet.
@@katrina3560 Books are a great one to declutter, go you!
@@TheDriftwoodlover Come back and join me while you work through the bedroom floor - I will be cheering you on!

Decluttering is a never ending process but not overwhelming when done little by little. Thanks for the motivation Diane!!!!
My home becomes more and more calming as I continue to declutter. ❤
That is my goal, calm home that is easy to clean without moving stuff around to clean
I’m hoping 2025 is the year I get through photos and sentimental family items. They are definitely my toughest category for decisions.
Paper is consistently my downfall! Grateful that you mention recycling. So many channels do not honour the environment and I believe that anyone who has access to recycling/donating/swapping should be encouraged to be mindful and responsible. Thanks for doing just that!
❤from Canada 🇨🇦
Yeah! 95k subscribers! Getting close to 100,000.
I have a very large walk in closet. Somehow everything ends up in there. I spent the last week organizing and decluttering. Three large garbage bags later, it’s all neat and tidy. I feel so proud every time I walk in there. Thanks for the motivation

Hi Diane. My mission this month is to pare down in my storage basement area. The floor needs to be resealed so stuff needs to be sorted and moved out. I was able to pass on my crib and linens to a lovely couple having their first baby. They are new to the country. My last grandchild is in a bed now so no more need. A work colleague gave it to me so I was happy to pass it on for free. I have de Christmased today so now I can face that next project! Cheers.
Here we go 2025!! We are staying motivated and on top of it! Thanks Diane
The Fly Lady system was confusing to me until I found your videos. I have been following you for years now and am thrilled with how streamlined my home and life are. Now I have time for those special projects and fun hobbies like reading. Thank you, Diane!🦋🦋🦋

Love the 5 min rule, used it yesterday and I was amazed at what I could do in 5min. I felt very accomplished.

Aww, how sweet! 🤩
Yay, I did it! 13 things gone from a drawer in the family room. Hadn’t touched them in 10 years.
The basement! We’ve made a lot of progress!
Today I decluttered a long with you, Diane. I did my dining room sideboard - a job well done! Let’s make it our year to shine🎉

Love your pink nails. That shade is so much fun! 💗
Just the inspiration I needed to tackle a cupboard I’ve been avoiding for way too long!
Wow! You really are serious about downsizing. Your packing is going to be so easy.
Watching your video motivated me to get up & work for 15 minutes. I made a cup of tea & worked in my pantry. Thanks for the motivation & encouragement ❣️
Making progress on my paper clutter. The cold, snowy days are making it easier for me to stay home and throw out actual trash.
Trying to work on the neglected "game room". Plus, time to put away Christmas decorations and going through decor that has not been used in the past several years. Thanks for the motivation!

Found some silk flower well past their best which have gone into the bin! Also an old lamp and world globe. Thank you for the encouragement.
The most cluttered spot in our house is our finished basement, but that is my husband's domain so the next most cluttered spot in our house is my office, which is mostly my stuff. I am starting to feel overwhelmed again but I am going to just do a bit every day and try to get ahead of things this year. 🙂
Hi Diane. Thanks for another quick & cheery video. Between your maintenance/whittling methods & a Christmas Space Maker Method binge, I’ve realised I need to focus on very small areas both for my own paper decluttering and for helping (encouraging) my parents to declutter our whole house. Would you believe we decluttered about 6 full sacks of Christmas paraphernalia this year and somehow still have 39 different containers in the loft?! BUT I have now fully catalogued it all: what’s in each box, size of each box (helps with stacking), access priority & timing (if we get tired, we leave the low priority stuff that’s at the back). One of my mottos for this year is “progress is progress” & this is an example already. Also, I confess to making a mental note of what my quick but big decluttering wins would be once my parents are ready for those suggestions (Christmas specific dinner plates, I’m coming for you and my shoulder wants revenge!).
My spare room with my teaching resources is very cluttered. Working on it now 🎉
I did a major decluter before we downsized to just the things I loved and used. It made moving so much simpler! Even after I've found even more to let go of. I couldn't be happier!
Good morning from Montana Diane! I am moving too and I appreciate your videos as you go through your items in order to declutter for your new home and life stage.
Thank you, Katrina!
I’ve been declutterring like crazy ❤after I put things straight in my mind. I don’t need all this stuff
🙂 Happy New Year Diane! 🎉 Wishing you all the best in 2025. ❤
Once again you have motivated me.... off to the laundry room to tidy and get rid of things. Thank you Diane!
Toujours un bonheur de vous suivre ! Je vais faire quelques tiroirs de ma cuisine 💪🏼❤️
Hi Diane.. I’ve followed and decluttered with you for over five years. My house looks pretty good but each passing year I find that I need less and less. I feel calmer and so much happier. Thank you. 👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for the flylady reminders also. ❤
You are so very welcome, Sandy! We will be talking a lot about the Flylady system this month!
Happy new year ❤
I decluttered my bedside cabinet along with you. Three out of four drawers are tidy now❤
I’m going to tackle my buffet unit tomorrow…….it’s a nightmare
I decluttered my whole house and attic in 2024. Starting my second round, it’s easier and I am more decisive this time. I’m amazed how much I hung on to last year!!!
Those newer artificial flowers are a pretty bunch!! 🌸 thanks friend!
So fun to see you decluttering your house again! I've been able to declutter a few Christmas decor pieces.
Yes! I discovered the Fly Lady system from you, which has changed my life for the better! Thank you.
We got a jump start on new year bu decluttering four cabinet shelves in our den at fhe end of December. Today we put away our Christmas mugs and glasses. I find it easier to put up and take down Christmas decorations over the course of three or four days, doing 20-30 minutes a day. I feel good about the new yrar...thanks to you, Dianne 👍🎉🙂
Took a trunk load to Goodwill this morning after decluttering the foyer , dining room, and basement since January 2nd 🥳
I love the Fly Lady
Woohoo 95k subs, go Diane ❤
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Love your encouragement always! Feeling much better after declutterring one drawer and a linen cabinet in our bathroom.
I've been sick w covid since Jan 1st missing all Diane's videos. 😢
I have the “bags” with put away, recycle and donate somewhere, but I don’t know where 😅. I moved 3 years ago. Tossed some things but still a lot off things in our home.
I found your RUclips channel many years ago now, when I was looking for a cleaning system. I think that fly lady and TOMM good options are. It’s hard for me to persist the systems. I try to have an organized home and life but it’s hard for me. But I’m always trying and starting again.
Thank you so much for your videos. I like them a lot!
Love it! The process is so well shown.
As you’re sorting through your stockpile of artificial flowers keep a few on hand with your gift bows. I’ve recently seen (and copied) using a small bunch of colorful artificial flowers on a package wrapped in kraft paper with natural twine or raffia in place of ribbon. It makes a pretty and unique “natural” theme package.
Go us! I decluttered my essential oil collection by about half. It was my biggest area of excess and I was absolutely dreading it. When I set certain criteria for decluttering (e.g., donate duplicates and anything that doesn't smell nice to me), then it cuts down on the decision fatigue a lot.
Hi Diane, thanks for the motivation as always 😊 Me & my partner will hopefully be moving soon so I appreciate all the help in decluttering as much as I can ❤️
Good luck, Bex! Will be thinking of you both!
I learned and flourished with Flylady because of you!!
Happy new year! This is the year I say goodbye to too much stuff! Starting today with the coat closet😊 Thank you
