      Just my thought... 😊Around 8 to 9 mins... to see laura struggle even to declutter the simple cleaning supplies is exactly what i am. Thing is i dont have a lot of things. But avoiding to declutter frequently makes it harder to let go of the things. To see collectively how much price we have wasted makes it hard to let it go. Am i making any sense...? I dont know.....😂😂😂😂

    It’s amazing how much organization helps to calm a space. She didn’t even have to declutter that much. I can’t wait to see her confidence grow. Being a new mom is hard enough.

    It’s hard to wait a week for the next area! One suggestion - when hanging things for kids- put the hooks lower so they can reach them and take care of their own things.

    My goodness, that is such a difference, and the actual declutter pile was quite small. It was all about the organisation.

  • @TheJoyFinder

    Laura, I got fed up with cleaning things I hated. I arranged them from worst to best and I'm using them up. It's incredibly satisfying throwing each one away

    • @renfairegoddess
      @renfairegoddess 3 часа назад +5

      I'm still working my way through all the cleaning supplies I inherited in my father's home, 4 years later.
      I grouped like items together, and arranged them with the least full items in the front of each category. EIGHT spray bottles of various "All Purpose Cleaner"? Sheesh. Lol.
      The only thing I have completely depleted is toilet bowl cleaner, and that took 2.5 years.

    • @TheJoyFinder
      @TheJoyFinder 3 часа назад +4

      @renfairegoddess It takes me a while to get through a bottle too. But the container was overflowing when I started and it's now about half. It helps that each is a bit better than the last. It feels great knowing I won't be rebuying any of them.

  • @StephL1111

    Woo hoo a new series. Love this because it is a young family of 4. Mom knows exactly where she wants things she just needed time and a bit of direction from April. I loved how Jasper walked to the clean mud room and just stood there looking at it. Now he is on board. We are getting off to a great start.

    So cool! Love this channel.
    Small suggestion, I would hang the dust pans vertically on top of each other behind the door where the mop is, and flip them so the brush is flat against the wall. That way they don’t pop out so much. Could create a Calmer visual on the wall.

    • @geschichtenausdemnagarium5804

    We live in Germany and it’s so funny/good to see the same clutter I deal with my 2 kids. It takes time to make the habit, but my kids (7&10) do hang their bags on their hooks. It helps that there’s no screentime until they „reset“ from school, including bags and shoes. I have to ask: Where do you put your shoes???

    • @LeaSonnenscheinTrier
      @LeaSonnenscheinTrier Час назад +1

      Laura said about the shoes that were laying on the floor of the mud room that they should go to the other shoes "in the hall way".

  • @sophiabright8371

    Amazing transformation! I felt so overwhelmed looking at that mudroom, and felt a strong sense of doubtful 'no way!' energy at the beginning.
    I need to learn: April is THEEEEEE Space Maker, and SPACE WILL BE MADE!!!
    Just incredibly satisfying and the kind of 'easy' (not to me!) win that really sets the tone and builds joy & confidence for calming and clearing the next hot spot! Cannot wait for the kitchen and other multipurpose room organization extravaganzas! Sundays are so special, waking up to a Space Maker inspirational video.
    April, it's so NICE to have you roam the world, de-stressing one household at a time!!!
    The ripple effect COULD be world peace! Right?
    😊😊❤😊😊

    You can always defrost the freezer with a hairdryer/heater. It’s a little bit of work, but if you get out the big chunks it goes way faster. And you can keep all the frozen food or milk together for a short time without it defrosting.
    Nice results, it looks way better!

    Suggestion for Laura's visual from the couch. Perhaps adding a frosted film to the window in the door, it would still let in light but really block that clutter from being visible from the space that's supposed to be comfort (couch).
