    I hope you realize how far you’ve come and give yourself a big hug. You used to do the Konmari method so you could see everything and now you can open a bin and make decisions. You are such an inspiration!

    It’s really nice to see you come to the conclusion that cheap decor from the Dollar Tree doesn’t love you.😘

    I love that you can give away the craft supplies to people with younger kids. That will be such a blessing in this year where everything seems so expensive.

    I have been following you right from the beginning and must say, you seem like a completely different person in the best way possible, decluttering seems like it’s easy to you now and you are so relaxed and happy ❤❤❤

    You are getting to be sooo organized with the Christmas stuff. Not only is it all together, it is in bins wherever possible. The bins even match the season's colors! And they have sub-categories by room / shelf / category. I repeat: SUB-CATEGORIES!!! You have come incredibly far.

  • @debratakagawa4764
    @debratakagawa4764 2 дня назад +41

    Wow, you are definitely going to be able to condense some bins. So many of the tossy items are still in very good shape for a new home.

    I'm so impressed at how much you're letting go, that's so amazing!!! Other smaller kids will be so excited about those crafts~
    I'm curious, after you eventually clear out your own home, would you ever consider being a decluttering partner for other folks with hoarding disorder?
    I'm so impressed and inspired by your persistence! 🎉 Woohoo!!! ❤

  • @goldfishsnake
    @goldfishsnake День назад +9

    I'd put the kids arts and crafts with other kids arts and crafts vs. with christmas, even if its christmas themed, since it's more about being a memento vs. decor you put out yearly. that way all the kids mementos stay together!

  • @Jettsmom98
    @Jettsmom98 2 дня назад +19

    You're doing such a great job with the decluttering. Each season as I put out decor, I look at the things I didn't put out and donate the things I just don't love anymore.

    After watching you for years, I really see why your channel is called A Hoarders HEART ! You have come so far. I hope you give your a gift of a vacation. maybe new flooring and paint. You deserve to enjoy the fruits of all your later!

    As I’ve gotten older, I’ve paired down my Christmas to a couple of plastic drawers in the closet. Every year when I put it out, I look at the things I don’t put out. I only put out what I’m going to have the energy to put away and what doesn’t get put out gets donated.

  • @susanrikimaru6630

    @bethstratton3391 День назад +2

    So amazingly proud of you. This decluttering session was awesome. The strides you are making are just fantastic Ms Heart. The shift in your thought process from last year to this are filling me with joy, to see how much you’ve built on your really positive re-evaluation of stuff. You seem so much freer and lighter now. The things you are giving away will make other younger children who are less fortunate happy and more importantly get used to bring joy, not just sit in a box. So many younger people are struggling financially and these donations of ornaments will make someone else’s Christmas easier. ❤

    I am amazed at how much you are letting go of and impressed with your internal work. This is a HUGE declutter. You should be so proud of yourself. You are an inspiration to us all to really look at our stuff and be realistic at what we need and share with others who have less.

  • @SewGladYoureHere
    @SewGladYoureHere 2 дня назад +4

    When I began decluttering, I was so motivated when I emptied a tote (or cabinet), that I couldn't wait to go through the next one and see what else I could get rid of! That became my dopamine rush (it still is!)

    Wow, that was a huge pile! So proud of you!
    Could you do a video someday on all your decluttering "tools"? I know you share your insights and steps as you go. But I find it helpful to have a video that explains a process. For example: You used to start a decluttering session by getting rid of the easiest thing to let go of. It's such a tiny thing but it works really well.
    I'm a member of several decluttering groups on FB and whenever I want to recommend your channel to someone I cannot point to a video that summarizes your approach. Sending lots of love ❤

That's so much! Inspiring me to want to let go of more of ours because we also have a lot. Like 5 or 6 small bins? Not including the tree? In a small storage closet? Oh god lol.

When we had my Mum move in with us I had a big declutter of our decorations, I donated them to a dementia care home because they had so little for the people who lived there, I felt so good knowing they had trees, garlands, lights and decorations and they told me that the lovely residents were really happy.

    great job..it really is....something in you has changed, its like im feeling with my decluttering.....im sick of the stuff i just want most of it gone now....ive been doing a decluttering one item a day for a year and only 5 weeks to go, but it really hasnt made much of a dent in the stuff i have,,,,,,however, as the year has gone on my ability to let go of stuff has improved alot. i dont feel so attached to the clothes i couldnt part with at the beginning of the year. i dont need to have endless books cluttering the shelves that i will never read or look at.....
    so in january im starting a 30 day decluttering challenge....i know there are 31 days in january but......well i can add the extra day on if i want.....thats 465 items and if i do the extra day that 496 items out.....can hardly wait...scared because i will be letting go stuff i love/like but i dont wear it, dont read it, dont use it......wouldnt have got to this stage without the one item a day for a year decluttering...its shifted something inside of me.....
