I just decluttered my closet, I think that I got rid of five bags full of clothes, handbags, coats, jackets, sweaters, sweatshirts, tees and shoes. Wow I can now actually walk into my closet. The funny part about it is that I’m not done yet.. now that I can actually walk into my closet, I’m going to do another sweep just to make sure that I have gotten rid of everything that I just don’t wear . I must say that I feel so much better about removing these items from my life and my home, you will too. Once I put something in the bag it’s gone goodbye . I know how you feel when you said how good it now feels to walk into your closet. Well done
I love this so much! I can relate to everything you said here. It’s a huge job but so worth it in the end. I just went through the space again and took out a couple more small bags worth of clothes. It’s a work in progress. Great job! ❤️
Thank you ❤️. I know Now that I will sort my closet by putting all my jeans together, leggings together, t-shirts together, tanks together. And take All of my winter clothes out for storage. 👍
You are so right!! This was a big job for me but I am so glad I got it done! I too enjoy watching decluttering videos, they definitely inspire and motivate me to take care of things in my own home! ❤ Thanks for watching Eric!
I listen to one de-cluttering video after another, all day, to keep me motivated when I am organising. Today its the turn of my wardrobe. In UK we don't usually have big closets, usually free-standing wardrobes. Mine is built in, but tiny and short, as its in the eves if the house. It gets so congested! I have decided to decongest it today and store my winter stuff under the bed in tote boxes. In UK the weather can give you 4 seasons in one day! For this reason I will keep the boxes accessible 😂 We also had very little as kids in our family, all 3 sisters and a niece have to curb the hoarding tendancy! At least we know we have it. 😊 Great video. 👍👍👍
I didn't pull everything out of my closets at once, when I organized, cleaned, & painted mine in vertical, boutique, stripes, 12" wide. Hubby wouldn't let me have another rolling rack, so I organized everything by rainbow color, light to dark, solids to prints, to neutrals, short to long. Visual merch class taught this for my fashion design degree. Then I pulled out 2' of clothes, at a time, stacked on opposite side of my bed, while I painted & waited for the paint to dry. This took me 6 months to do a double walk-in closet, but so worth it!
I did a huge closet declutter. I decluttered so many of my clothes. I had plastic hangers and I decided to buy slim hangers. That was a game changer in my small closet. At the end of each season I look to see what I can donate. Maybe you can get a shoe storage rack for your shoes and other footwear. You did a great job!
The "it" colors for this Fall season are Maroon & concrete gray, burgundy & red can substitute. Full skirts, vests, fringe, pleated plaid wool skirts, Fall florals, piled on jewelry, silk scarves & brooches, are all the rage. Big chunky chain jewelry, & earrings, animal print in their natural colors. Vintage brown mink fur, or faux fur. Don't toss those. Bows are still in. Denim on Denim is back, but Skinny jeans & ripped jeans are out.
You have done a beautiful job! May I suggest color organizing each group based on the rainbow. White, pink, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, ingego, violet, brown, grey, black. It makes putting together an outfit super easy.😊 And I found that shower curtain rings work really well for indicating a separation between groups of things. And you can write on them if you need to like for kids sizes etc.
Thank you so much for watching Jessica! Your tips here are really good and I am going to definitely try them out! Love the idea of having curtain hooks to separate colors. Brilliant! ❤️
@@Preppyslaysallday. thank you so much!! I did end up keeping half of the extras. If I buy something new I try and get rid of something old so that I am not keeping too much stuff around. ❤️
@@Preppyslaysallday. Aw!! That puts a huge smile on my heart! Thank you so much for sharing that with me and for watching and supporting my channel! I am so grateful! 🙏🏼❤️
Thank you Kristina!! What a big job hey!? Definitely feels great getting it done and downsizing. I hope you and your family are having a great weekend so far! ❤
New to your Chanel . I find looking at photos of me in outfits on my phone helps me get rid of things . I was 3rd girl definite hand me downs I understand the buying more than we need keeping it for longer because of growing up with not much money . I have found giving to a women’s shelter or freecycle to people that need things has helped me. I also put tags on the hanger of things I’m not sure on use or loose . Once you’ve done the first pass it does get so much easier.
Oh my goodness Lucy, such a wonderful and relatable comment you have left! Thank you so so much! ❤ These tips are really good, I will definitely try all of them! Thank you for watching and take the time to leave your thoughts, I am truly grateful! 🥲
New subscriber here, I'm so glad I've found this video on the suggestions. I struggle so much to discard some stuff like any old clothes that can't be donated or nicer paper clutter like magazines/catalogues or even just some clothes stores flyers. I usualy put stuff I declutter in bags like you've did, but I leave them in the garage forever instead of either decluttering things righ away in the regular trash or at least just dump the bag for real haha. But I very rarely seen someone filming while discarding clothes so it gives me motivation. Mosst people only film the clothes they donate, but do the rest off cameras, but it's easy for me to declutter the clothes I can donate so I'm happy I could find some motivation in your video. I hope I'll find more like this and maybe one with the nicer paper. Even if it's not a declutter, but just few random things you find around while cleaning, I always look for motivation for this 😇
This is such a wonderful comment! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and connect! I appreciate it a lot! ❤️ I feel a lot of people judge people who throw certain decluttered items in the garbage instead of donating, but in my opinion I feel like there is always stuff that can just go right into the trash; so I do try and include that in my videos. I am a lot like you with the holding onto paper items and having a hard time getting rid of that stuff. I am about to start a decluttering series where I will be getting rid of over 1000 pieces, lots of paper type items and other random stuff I have been holding on to. You might get some inspo and motivation through those videos. ❤️ Thank you for being here, I truly appreciate your support.
Hi Tegan, beautiful cleaning motivation! By the way, I tried your great hack and while clearing out a few balloons that nobody played with anymore, I carefully let the air out with a pair of scissors. I am very relieved that it works so quietly! Thank you so much for sharing and have a wonderful Sunday! 🥰❤️💖🌞
Good Morning Josie! ❤ Thank you for watching! I appreciate you so much! Awww I am so glad you tried out the balloon popping hack and it worked for you. It’s quick, easy and quiet! You can’t go wrong! ❤ Happy Sunday Josie! Have a beautiful day!
It really is! I got overwhelmed a few times and it took longer than I expected, haha but it was so worth it. Hopefully you film you’re so I can watch! ❤
I decluttered too much during the years of COVID. That and a change of weight (unfortunately gaining) led to a must buy. My motto in general is: if it doesn't find a place in my closet (which also includes bedding ecetera) something else has to go instead or I don't buy it. Unfortunately no walk in closet or built in; that's not common in Europe. Also one important question before buying: do I need it or do I only want it ? And one suggestion for all in between sizes people: be realistic and don't toss away all clothes that are too big. Wait if your current size will last.
I used containers sideways top f closet to put folded items in I have sweaters in them easy to pick a sweater and see Looks tidy Velvet hangers take way less space fyi Temu and some dollar stores have shoe storage as in 1 pair fits in less space taken I’m an Alberta gal too
As much stuff as you drug out of that small closet, that's amazing. It look like it was never ending the stuff you was bringing out. I HATE you throwing all the clothes in the land fill.
I know, I felt like it was never ending! I am donating the majority of the stuff I didn’t want to keep. I actually goggled where to take the clothes I want to garbage, and I learned H&M will take them to recycle so that’s what I am going to do with those. ❤
Haha I know I know. I live in oversized T’s these days but I did get rid of a whole bunch in this video. I need to go through again and toss out some more. Thank you for watching! ❤
You may want to look into a better closet system. Know someone with same system and it gave way one night. Weight of the clothes just tore it out of wall. Clothes are a lot heavier than you think.
Hey Janet, thanks for the feedback! We don’t own this house otherwise I would definitely be customizing the closet with drawers and shelving. I did notice whoever installed the longest shelf doubled up on the brackets at both ends which is great. ❤
My Alberta closet is about the same size as yours. I have a double dresser and high boy dresser in the bedroom that are used for t-shirts, leggings, sweaters, etc which allows lots of room to organize a small closet. I also have a small Sterilite 3 drawer organizer in the closet for miscellaneous random outfits. I even have room for a Swiffer and Small vacuum cleaner so that I don't have to go downstairs for these cleaning products. Key to organized small closet is constant decluttering and removal of unused items. I enjoyed your video. Thanks for the suggestion to also clean the doors, something that I promise to do today. You might consider adding battery operated lighting on the wall to enhance the lighting in the room.
Some of us watch these types content as a form of therapy. May I make a suggestion about the type of music you choose. It should be a relaxing and calming sounds to motivate other viewers to continue to watch your videos. I had to turn the volume completely to mute because this music was so annoying
@@benakamyar135 Thank you for watching as well as sharing your thoughts. I personally find the music I share in my videos to be motivating and enjoy watching cleaning videos with the same style songs. You can’t please everyone unfortunately so I do what moves me and trust that the people with the same taste will enjoy. ❤️ Thanks again! Happy Holidays!
So you're hoarding shit you dont need (all the bins and boxes) in a place you'll forget about them existing (the basement) because you enjoy the clutter and mess? :/ This was horrible....
Haha, no not quite. The bin has seasonal and sentimental items in it and the 2 boxes which held some of my daughters keepsakes, clothes that are too small which we keep for our next child are now moved into the appropriate bins in our storage room. Our basement is actually a space in our home where we spend time and our storage room is super organized and clutter free, everything is sorted and labeled. 😃 Thank you so much for watching!
Happy Saturday, friends!! Lets get motivated!
Thanks for sharing your 🛏️ bedroom with us! You did amazing. And your donations will help others!!🎉 You must feel awesome 😊
This is a really nice comment, thank you so much for brightening my day!! 🥰

So much easier to watch others declutter than doing it myself! It helps to watch, I just wish decluttering could happen at warp speed in real life!

Hey Kate! All of the songs are from Epidemic Sound ❤️ If there is a specific one you like let me know and I can give you the name!
Ok thanks. I really liked all the tracks actually. Nice choice 👍👍👍
The older I get, the more I realize I really don't need a lot of stuff. It's just taking up space. I never wore most of it.
I feel that Anna! Less is more! ❤️ Thank you so much for watching!
Wow, sweetie that's a lot of T-shirts!!! Lol

@@thehahnhouse27 Great job
Thank you so much Carolyn! ❤
I guess because I'm not in the business workforce it would take me 30 mins to go through my stuff, probably less.
This took me hours 😂
