Wow! What a difference! Next time you have a yard sale you can set up tables of things that would get ruined by rain in the garage and then just carry them out in the morning!
This declutter was SPECTACULAR!! 😮 Where did ALL that stuff GO?!?!
It's looking so good! I think you'll be able to set up at least a few tables for your next yard sale inside the night before, so you don't have to worry about rain like the last time. And then normally, it will be all ready for any projects your hubby wants to work on.
keeping the gardening stuff there is not an ADHD trait, that’s a successful person trait. ❤ one day hopefully I will be as succesful as you in that situation. great job
Good to see hubby being part of the decluttering.
That beautiful China cupboard would look really pretty in your living room! It would add height, as well. Could one of the shelving units be put to use just as easily elsewhere? the items put into the cupboard could be items from that shelving unit…books…games…memoribilia? Rather than dishes or glassware.
Agree!
Yes, it would look good there.
Yes, it is very modern farmhouse style that Miss Heart loves! Maybe if the style isn't her favourite she could even paint it!
Oh Melanie, so pleased for you and hubby. It's lovely you work so well together.
I have an idea!! What about using the beautiful armoire as your home-schooling/command center? It's the first thing you see when you enter the home, and this looks like it could look a lot neater!
I thought the same thing - gorgeous to look at when you first walk in the door and the cube system could be repurposed for the basement craft area.
100% agree!
She doesn't home school
She has two older kids in public school. Having seen her space and how she uses it, I can't imagine this working (or being useful) for her.
That thing is huge and dark, will take a lot of space and maybe not her style. Putting it to use as storage seems like a good option.
Oh....I feel more motivated when Pepper asks the opening question!! 🐱🐱🐱
I'm so happy you declutter together! 🎉
Great work on the garage. Regarding the hutch, getting rid of it would be a good idea. If it’s brought in the house it will end up being a clutter collector 😬 Give it away for free. Someone else can love it ❤
Wow I can’t believe the amount of stuff that left. I’m sooooo glad ye had the rubbish out the night before. The space in the garage is looking so good. Ye won’t know yer selves when’s it’s finished. Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 🙇♀️👏💪👍🙏💐🐈
You should put the China cabinet into the basement for your crafting space.
You can see what a huge difference it’s already making!! Awesome teamwork!!
I like to declutter the way you do. A little at a time works for me. I don’t feel a lot of emotions but there are LOTS of thoughts. Great job!
Hi! I keep the majority of my gardening supplies in a cupboard in my garage(bought at Lowe’s). I also keep a medium size bin on the back patio to store additional trowels, clippers, etc. for use in the backyard. I also store a trash can, broom, dustpan, & shovel in the corner of the back patio for backyard work. RE: The hutch - - I would sell it in the next yard sale. If it’s been in the garage this long, that means that you do not need it or love it🌞💐
Yes, we should always lift each other up. I wouldn't keep anything just because it used to be someone else's prized possession. Great job! Maybe one day you'll shift to hubby's style of decluttering.
You talk about different decluttering styles. I agree. There's probably a pattern to be found for Decluttering styles. Kind of like the Clutterbugs that Cas has developed for Organizing styles. I'm sure you could develop you own "bugs".
Good job on collaborating with your husband.
Wow. Big difference. Well done. Looking good.
The garage is looking fantastic! Team work makes the dream work ❤️
I also made my garage a little better by pulling out the empty toss tossy boxes.
Great job both of you the garage looks so much better. You really work so well together and achieved so much. Btw I think it makes perfect sense what you said about keeping your garden nook in the garage because it’s near where it is needed most. Excited to see what the space looks like when it is fully decluttered and organised. It was nice you found a few more things to add into the yard sale pile too.
Sell armoire and use money to buy open shelving to store hubby's tools and other items that stay in garage.
Good job Mrs. Heart and Hubbie! Keep going! We believe in you! 💜
Wow!! Amazing teamwork!!
Great job.
I'm so glad you explained the garden nook and I think it makes sense! The tossy tossy pile is excellent. ❤
That cleared space will be so good once the colder weather comes.
Garage looking fantastic congratulations Hubby and Miss Heart 💜💙🦄
It’s nice that your able to put out more than one bin and your trash company takes it! In our city if it doesn’t fit in the bin it doesn’t get picked up without a special pickup.
DAYUM!!! You guys absolutely killed it in this episode! That’s such great progress and the garage is soo open and you can now see how big of a space it is. The cabinet that has been passed to you guys is actually really lovely but it depends on whether it’s going to be useful to you guys? It is lovely however and I think you guys have done so amazing. Literally CANNOT wait for the next ep! ❤❤❤
Amazing progress! Can`t wait for more!
I am definitely motivated by your videos. I may not act on decluttering/cleaning right away but it is in the forefront of my mind most of the time. That means it is more likely to get done than prior to the video. Thanks!
That's so great !! Working on our garages before the weather changes 😊
Perhaps the Strawberry Shortcake can go in Christmas for the tree. Or maybe on the pink tree. Just a thought.
You and Hubs rock!!!
Wow!! What incredible progress ❤
For your garden tools, get a large mailbox, install it on a post near your garden beds, or right in your garden bed. You could decorate it really cute, and then you have a little storage spot out of the elements, for your garden tools, and it would be conviently located.😊
Totally love the old school strawberry shortcake stuff you ever feel like letting it go LMK love your channel and thank you for your content ❤️
The two of you are making such huge progress in the garage. The opened area has so much potential.
I agree the hutch is so nice. It would look nice in your house or as part of your future crafting area in the basement.
Great video! You and hubby make a great team!!❤
You two are making such incredible progress in this garage- great job!!!
Your nearly finished in that garage, such a Great job your both doing in there! ❤❤❤
It is amazing, how fast you guys work!!! It will be done in no time
Y'all are doing AMAZING!!!
It looks so good!
Wow that’s absolutely fantastic you both did amazing❤️your husband’s family’s beautiful cabinet is gorgeous, I am on our local pages to find something similar in the UK, we were downsizing a few months ago so we donated half of our things but for reasons which were unforeseen we were unable to for now. So I thought I would buy one special piece and not replace anything else.
This was an excellent episode🎉🎉 Hope you finish the garage soon❤
Wow, incredible job
Fantastic job!💕
Always so delightful to see you Ms Heart
Just awesome!
Such great progress. It will be lovely to have it cleared by winter ❤
Wow huge difference!
You are doing so good! 😊
Great Job. Proud of you
Oh My Gosh... paint that hutch and put it in the kitchen in place of that food cabinet. It looks like it will fit and it is So Nice. You can absolutely fit everything you have in the pantry - into the hutch.
I definitely wouldn't paint it, it's much prettier as is.
Wow, FANTASTIC work! 🥳👏👏👏👏👏The hutch might make a good storage piece directly across from the front door in your living room, if it won’t make your dining area too crowded. The hutch could replace the open cubbies for kids’ stuff. You could also replace one of the cupboards in your kitchen with the hutch. Taking it downstairs might be risky because I’ll bet it’s heavy.
all the people telling you to keep a huge, outdated, heavy hutch are NOT your friends 😂 if you don’t love it, let it go!
Also is there space for it. Though i understand their views
@@roxannesykes415just because we have space doesn't mean we need to fill it with stuff. 😊
Omg so much progress! As a fellow crafter I would use the china hutch as a crafroom storage I used an old tv stand and turned it into a crafting center or as some people suggested in the living room for the command center. One thing I commonly run into with helping other people organize is that vertical space is not utilized efficiently so anything that can store things high up is a plus
Great job!❤
Awesome!❤😊
Great tossy tossy pile today!!
I've got next year garden stuff in my down lavatory and I need to get some to shed.I cleared hall and felt anxious.....I had s few bad things done to me as a kid in a very empty soulless house of my dads mother....and I'm bi polar eccentric and ADHD so I navigate .things keep me safe but I don't like chaos its about finding my ok zone.you do well.I'm 53 and not physically well so its 10 mins here n there.keep going.😊
Have you ever listened to Dana K. White? She has come up with a simple way to declutter that takes away the emotional side of it. For example: the first thing she has you do is look for trash, not should I think of it as trash, but to me I know it is trash. This helps get the hoard down, has you look and see what is actually there and gets you prepared for the next step. She also goes over certain ideas such as the container concept, clutter thresholds, and (I think she calls it) brain explosion. She is known as A Slob Comes Clean. She is a hoot.
I agree.
Would love it if my hubby did the same but he is busy with other projects.
I hope it feels good to you to see so much space opening up in the garage. Is hubby going to move his things from the basement out there so that the basement is cleaner? And will you have an address you can stack yard sale bins in the garage rather than keeping them in the basement? Both those things would allow you to see your progress in the basement more, I think.
And I agree with those who suggest selling the hutch and using the money to buy open shelving for the garage. It doesn't seem like you're attached to it so exchanging it for something useful to your lives would honor his parents' gift to you.
That cabinet would go really well in the kitchen in place of current pantry cabinet. You could even paint it white to match. It can probably fit everything you got there now.
Alternatively, why not use in the basement for storage and display of your childhood toys maybe?
Or you put it sideways to make a visual division of basement areas, ie children playroom from storage area. It would look more homely for kids.
When my youngest daughter buys her first home, i will be hunting down a similar china cabinet, but not for china. She and I will turn it into a gift wrapping station. She doesn't do any needlework like i do. But she loves to go all out wrapping gifts.
I may have missed it, but is the goal to be able to park a car in there? Especially with winter coming? Then I’d say for sure put the hutch in the basement for storage - maybe by the kids’ toys?
❤
I was already thinking that China hutch would be perfect in your craft studio in the basement. You could display a few handmade items as well as store some of the colorful craft supplies like ribbons. You can even make the hutch one of your creative projects by painting it. Great tossy, tossy pile. I had anxiety seeing everything taken out and spread out on the driveway. As much as I want to do that I just can’t do it.
I love this idea. It would help the basement to feel more like the finished space upstairs.
If i were you, I would either put the armoir back in the house ( if it fits) or put it in the basement to put stuff that can be store there. Otherwise, it could be used for storage in the garage. It looks like it is made of good quality wood.
😊❤
Three(3) of us live in a 2BR apartment. No garage, no shed, no basement. Toss anything no one's used in a year. Garbage out every day. Only buy what you need.
Off- season clothes fit in a small suitcas: we're near Chicago, so we have 4 seasons. We have too many tchotchkes, but they aren't mine. Tina, Al's wife
i would sell that armoar - you clearly don't like it, it's not your style, but it's beautifull and someone else would like it just as it it, better than to put effort into half heartedly restoring it just to be storage....
The idea you need to allow hubby all of the garage and you need to move garden stuff someplace different is crazy! The home is shared space not his, mine they them, it’s us, we, ours and shared.
I think it is less about his/hers spaces and more about putting garden things in a shed in the yard where folks often put their gardening tools/mowers etc.
Given that her husband allowed her hoard to take over every room in the house for years, I think it's great she lets him have a space of his own. Her relationship is going to work out and be successful. With your attitude, I'll be surprised if you are even in a relationship.
@@bunacat1 I don’t understand why anyone would tell her where to put her stuff so hubby can have the full garage. I read the comments on the last video, it’s frustrating how many people correct her when she is honestly showing the truth of what healing looks like. It drives me nuts the constant correction she gets.
@@ash1422 she gives space to everyone’s things, the basement has lots and lots of her husbands things, she is kind and respectful and doesn’t say this space is mine I’ll just move my husbands things out. She never does that to her husband or children, when she decluttered her bedroom and hubby had tons of things in his space she didn’t toss his stuff or limit the space he is allowed, she is kind and giving and trying so hard to clean out so that everyone gets space in the home. And for ugly attitudes to think she is not allowed a garden nook in her and her husband’s garage is completely ridiculous. It’s as ridiculous as saying her husband can’t have space in the basement or shed or any other part of the home. They share the home and if they agree that the garden space works for both of them!!!!! No one has the right to tell them they are wrong.
@@modernhomesteadalaska talking a lot doesn't make you right lol ur not all there, think instead of react
Space the Final Frontier! (was that a bottle corker in the tossy tossy pile?)
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great job! The sideboard is a gorgeous piece of furniture and so well made. It would be a shame to get rid of it... Is there somewhere in the house where this heirloom can be useful and a practical storage furniture piece?
❤❤❤😊
I am wondering a bit. In my country the trash bins all have lids and they are made of plastic so heavy that the wind is not moving them and they can be out in the yard / driveway all year around. I´ve seen a few garage videos from the US and most people seem to have their trash bins in the garage. What is the reason for that? It seems to be such a waste of space and doesn´t it smell? Just being curious as it is different here in Germany.
Actually, yes, the wind here does get strong enough to tip them over. Tornadoes and hurricanes are very common in much of the U.S. Also, in many areas there are rules about keeping “unsightly “ objects out where your neighbors can see them (but, thankfully that’s not everywhere!).
You could keep the bottom of the hutch & get rid of the top part and if you guys dont like it the way it is, redo it into something you both love & he gets to keep the best part of the hutch w/out it eating up a room... just a thought... ❤ ya & ur videos! Great work!

Columbus day? I never knew USA had that.....? Interesting
It’s controversial now, some people call it “Indigenous People Day” instead.
It’s actually now called Indigenous Peoples’ Day, but it was called Columbus Day for a long long time, so no hate to Ms. Hart cause a lot of people just colloquially call it that still. Hope this helps! 💕
It also happens to be the same day that Canadians have their Thanksgiving. In the US, we have Thanksgiving on the 4th Thursday of November.

Would the hutch make good crafting supplies storage in the basement?
For your china cabinet, it sounds silly but I think it helps to take the point of view of the item. Is this item happy being stored this way? Am I respecting this item in keeping it in this way? It's not so much about you _liking_ an item, because let's face it it's so easy to like thousands of things, but it's being realistic about the container size of your home. If you can't keep an item respectfully, it's probably better to pass it on to someone who really needs it. When I see furniture items in garages or basements, going unused, getting damaged by dust, bugs, water, etc. that's not really respecting that item and the people who worked hard to make it. I'd always rather pass on items that I like but can't realistically use in a respectful or functional way. I'd never want something to deteriorate and go to waste in my possession that someone else could've used. The world is abundant, if I needed a similar item in the future, I know I'll be able to find one.
Yay, Peter Walsh says that kind of thing too.
Hutch in the kitchen or living room
you can use a product called liquid sand paper to clean the hutch and paint it with a paint that doesn't need pre sanding or primer like Mineral paint or DIY Paint (Debi's Design Diary).
Is your husband a hoarder too ? I noticed that 95% of the things you cleared were his
Of course he is. They’ll never admit it though.
Hoarding is, I believe, more about an emotional attachment to things than a quantity of items. Or it’s a compulsion to buy/keep. You can see by the piles he has been able to easily get rid of that he has no problem letting things go.
I think most people with garages/lofts/sheds find it extremely easy to let things build up to this level. It takes constant maintenance to keep things down. We all know clutter attracts clutter and that is even worse in spaces you don’t “need” to use. Not to mention that in the previous video we saw the garden nook had literal trash that had been thrown towards the garbage cans and not made it in - I suspect there’s more of that in this pile! It’s also likely that much of this is to do with things that are harder to get rid of. I have a little collection of things in my garage that need to go to the recycling centre, and I won’t go until I have a lot more because it’s a hassle. My guess is Mr Heart is a bee or cricket clutterbug style and is leaving things out until he can do it perfectly.
No. The garage is the one area he has things and works a lot so it gets disorganized. This is my understanding from Ms Hearts descriptions over the years.
You’re making awesome progress! Also, a lot of people have replaced Columbus Day with Indigenous People’s Day. I definitely think the latter is more well-deserved😊.
The hutch could be used as your pantry if you needed more space. If you don’t have enough space on the main floor of your house then I would probably sell it.
You should put it in the kitchen for better pantry storage!
What if you put the china cabinet in the kitchen, instead of your pantry
I actually have to respectfully disagree about being successful with stuff has to be near the space of use. There are people out there that actually do not have stuff in the same space or right near it and are successful. Our back shed in our big yard does have all our outdoor stuff in it, and in order to maintain the front yard and back yard, everything stays rhere. You just have a little bit extra exercise, which is a benefit for everyone. We dont keep our cleaners in the same areas. We have bathrooms on opposite ends of the house and do track between the two and the kitchen for items to clean all three spaces. Not all homes and apartments are the same. There are people who live in apartments have storage not near their apartment itself and have to trek across a complex or wherever to get decorations or off season things for random things. You cant categorize most people into a box when literally not everyone knows how everyone works. Like for the garden space most people commented to put it in the shed, yet you said in this vlog most people would agree of you keeping the nook in the garage, which is contradictory to the comments in the previous video. That's why no one can actually say "most people do this" because it isnt accurate. I understand the reason to try to relate and reach out to everyone. It's admirable. But, everyone is raised differently and audiences are different. Instead of saying "most people do this or think this way", its better speak for yourself on what you choose to do and why. Not speak for everyone or most people. And, I know its unintentional, but still its food for thought that can be helpful in the future.
