- It is that time of the week again! It is time to Declutter another section of this hoarded basement!! Our goal in 2023 is to completely clean out this basement so I made some March goals to achieve that!
#home #declutter #motivation
Just an idea for the diper changer. If u want to keep it, then put away the mattress and use the furniture for your craft area for bins. The furniture will be used again and u can look at it all the time, but if the boys will be older and u still have it, just a bit of paint and sanding and they can use it for the original purpose as well :)
I was thinking the same thing!!
Same!
Great job💕
I was going to say this as well!
No sense in keeping the pad considering the amount of mold in this basement. Wouldn’t want to put a baby on it and they cost less than $30 last time I bought one.
For it "just" being a paper declutter today, that was a TON! I do agree with somebody else's comment that the changing table mattress needs to be thrown out, as they don't store well, and the entire thing may no longer be considered baby-safe, but keeping it as a butterfly storage system for craft bins may be a great compromise for you!
Although I'm a "touch it once" declutterer, I can really see how well this "obvious trash and sort" decluttering has been working for you! Instead of hemming and hawing for an hour about your Precious Moments dolls or random surprise Christmas decor, you just sort, store, and keep on trucking. These category KonMari sorts seem to be what works for YOU, both without stressing you out or making you fearful of decluttering. I think you've found YOUR stride, and let's be honest- your house, YOUR WAY.
Wow! Amazing! This is the first time I really looked at the basement and thought "we are close to the end". Keep up the great work!
How much do you have left at the storage unit? Could you do an updated tour of the basement? Thanks ❤
Look how far you've come. You've got those decluttering muscles so strong and are seriously powering through that basement. This will be the year you get a basement family area.
The diaper changing table can be storage for all your ribbon!!!! If you get some copier paper box lids (just the lids), you can sort your ribbon by color and then Konmari method the ribbon. Afterwards, those lids with the ribbon in them can be put on each shelf and even stacked. The lids and ribbon are lighter weight so you won’t have too much weight on the changing table shelves.
I agree the changing table would work great for scrapbooking/craft storage. You are really doing great, your ideas are so helpful❤️🥰
Finally gone through everything in my office, craft room, it's now ready to be organised
Ohhhhh, how exciting!!! Look at you go 🦄💜🌟🦄💜🌟
You have so much floor space! Congratulations on another great decluttering session! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Haha, I had my happy little German moment when you said Schmutz! in the beginning :D
Greetings from Germany!
So proud of you. You always make my week a little bit brighter. That changing table is absolutely perfect for the crafting area. Remove the mattress and put some nice clear bins or baskets in there and you can have a beautiful butterfly piece with a second life 🦄💜
You and Miss Pepper make a good team. Great progress!!! Thanks for sharing.
Yesterday, Saturday 11, 2023, I decluter about 3 or more Ex-larger garbage bag. My husband decluter about the same . So about 7 bags total. It does become easier ❣️
Just a question. If you look at the reveal, to the left you have a stack with bins. It looks like a loose pink lid that might go to that container you need it for. It looks like the lid is on top of the red bin. I’m almost sure it’s a lid that isn’t attached lol. The basement is coming along great. ❤
I’m so truly proud of you! You are such an inspiration to us! I’ve been watching you for years and have been decluttering right along side of you! I know you love the Minimal Mom & Cas from Clutterbug (and so do I 💗)… have you heard of Dana K White “A Slob Comes Clean” she’s AMAZING! I’ve read her books & watch her RUclips channel as well. She has such small steps that help like you do… “Progress and only Progress” and “Just make it Better” I thought you might enjoy her stuff as well. Sending hugs from TN!
Yay for healing and doing the mental work! 💪💕
Congratulations on the amount of items about which you were able to make decisions about!!!! It doesn't even feel like watching the same "Heart". No doubt in my mind (now) that this is YOUR YEAR to declutter the basement. Best Wishes and Happy Spring!!!
You make me cry tears of joy, the decluttering is just the tip of the iceberg what you are doing is helping heal deep emotions. Love you so much, thank you. God smile upon you always. Love Ruthie
When I want to save a cardboard box, I fold it flat. I keep one or two for giving breakable objects away. I make lots of crafts, my bins are see through plastic shoeboxes.
I have 4. When they start to get full, I declutter. A friend gave me some ribbon yesterday. Tina, Al's wife
Your explanation of your thought/ emotional processes is excellent. I really think you should do this professionally once you've reached the final declutter of your home where you feel you no longer qualify as a person "with" hoarding disorder. I really appreciate what you are saying.
Maybe a wrapping station. Coz I'd hate to see her keep enough ribbon to fill that.
Yay basement video...🎉🎉🎉
Pepper the Inspector...another decluttering great episode. Thanks.
Fridays with your videos are more enjoyable, thank you for the motivation😊
I love your videos! Thank you for the inspiration. I’ve been living with the hoarding struggle my whole life. You explain it & work through everything in a way that really works! ❤
Thank you Ms Heart and Ms Pepper, it’s wonderful to see the progress. We love you and your family. God Bless ❤
You've done so much mental and emotional work 💪🏻
Hee hee. Everyone’s playing eye spy for the lid😆
Thank you for your constant incouragement ❣
Thank you for your encouragement too 😊🙏🏼🦄💜
Love your videos! You help me so much!
Good job! Look how far you have come in the basement won't be long till you can have all the insulation replaced and you turn the basement into additional living space.
Great decluttering! And your nails look beautiful!! 😍
Awesome job! It always feels good to get things done!
You're so close to opening up the middle of the room; each week, I think today might be the day. I can't believe how far it's come
I took the clutterbug test and I learned that I'm a cricket 🦗💕
Me too! 🦗
Hello from Germany and hi miss heart and miow pepper. Sorry I comment not on Friday, weekend was bissy, with my 43 birthday. You Rock it, buhu. this week I declutter the basement from my hubby's family and the laundry room. Be safe
You are doing so well!
Another great video! We are decluttering categories in our basement in small spurts. Your videos are very motivating.
Looks fantastic congratulations another wonderful job done 💜🦄
I work from home on Fridays and I LOVE my lunchtime declutters with you!
I think I spotted the lid to the pink tub. It’s on top of the clear pink tub in the stack of tubs and boxes to the left of the change table
You did such a great job! That was sooooo many decisions that you were able to make!!!!
Yes 😍 best time on fridays
Awe, you are so sweet my friend!! Thank you so much 🦄💜🌟🙏🏼
Love your videos 💕
As always, great job and awesome encouragement
I loved this… I like all your videos but the basement ones are my favorite!!
Yes there's healing and we have slow process especially when we have a disorder.
Another amazing job!! ❤️❤️❤️
Love the watch you declutter. I think the lid to the pink container is on top of the pink see trough containers to the left of the changing table.
Here!! 🌟🦄
So happy you are 🦄💜🌟🙏🏼
Wow the amount of paper leaving is huge. Those decluttering muscles 💪 are on fire. With the plan you have in place, for wanting the basement decluttered by the end of the year, and the way you’re going through stuff including the storage unit it’ll be done before the end of the year. Keep up the great work. Thanks for always motivating and encouraging me and others. Miss Pepper is a great supervisor too. Have a great weekend. Mary, Joes wife 🙇♀️👏💪👍🙏💐🐈🦄
There was a large section where you were speaking over but didn’t say what you were doing with it I.e Halloween bits on the diaper changing table. I think it’s good to keep yourself accountable and say what you are doing with every item/ collection either speaking or via the subtitles on the screen
Nicely done!!
I can remember the very 1st time you showed the basement. It almost looks empty now thinking back to before!
I have been decluttering a lot lately due to my health journey making my clothes and style having a transition: I went from a size 10/large to a size 6/medium small! Even my favorite bras were too big and I went from a 38C now a 32A! I am now focused on my old papers!
Present 👋 About to watch and know I NEED this today!
Hooray!! So happy you are here 🦄💜🌟🙏🏼
This whole box can go. This whole box can go. 🔥👏🏻🏆
I so love how you can quickly add a precious moment to the rest. Or grab a Christmas box and stick it in the cave for when it's time. I'm sure you get a little thrill too.
Wonderful job! 🎉 Did I see the lid to the pink bin to the left of the changing table?
Yes! I see it on top of the red tote?
Love those clear drawers! It’s so great that you are learning about yourself. 💜
I am so proud of you! Keep trucking along! You are doing so great!
❤❤❤😊
I have another idea because of the diper changer. I was thinking that it cold be a possibility to put all the furniture together in one spot. It is a category that does not fit in boxes but schould be together. Except for Storageunits. Maybe someday there is a space for it.
You did a great job decluttering in this episode and continuing to be organised with your bin system. It is great that you are now a little more able to let go of things relating to the period when you had your miscarriages. I read other people’s suggestion about using the dipper changing station as a craft shelf, but I was thinking wouldn’t it be a real blessing if you passed on your baby dipper changing station to another mummy and bring them joy instead. That way you could honour your children and also the memory of the children you lost by doing something positive and uplifting on their behalf in their names. The dipper station isn’t helping anyone just lying dormant not being used for its intended purpose and it is not a positive reminder for you as it stands at present, but it could be a truly positive reminder of just how far you have progressed if you let it go, and let go of some of the negative emotional sadness you have held onto for so long. Perhaps you could take photos of the changing station and then journal about how Brandon and Tyler would be proud of you turning your losses into a truly positive, loving and charitable donation to benefit another child or children. However, if you are still not ready to let it go then it’s fine to hold on to it a little longer or repurpose it some other way. Whatever you decide to do there is no judgement or right/wrong in your decluttering process as long as you stay true to yourself and your emotions. I wish you well with whatever you decide. 🙏💕
Awesome job! 🙌
Great job, voice over and reminding us not to put ourselves down and go at a pace we need. Can you speak how it felt when you first started? I watched you before you revealed your face. You are always cheerful on videos. How did you feel in the early days going through things when you weren't on camera? Did you feel horribly overwhelmed?
Your cat is happy watching you open and move things.
You are such an inspiration, Melanie! It's super helpful, too, the way you talk through your process in each video.
Thanks!
Have you been able to Declutter every part of your house now? It seems to me like you’ve had multiple passes at each space but I’d be interested to know if there’s any untouched spaces still left to tackle? You seriously blow me away with all the hard work you’ve put in. 😊
After watching your videos for a long time, this last week I finally felt up to going through my sentimental papers from when I was a kid. My mom kept nearly everything, and I've gone through smaller bits of it before, but now I've got the floor space to make smaller groups, declutter them one at a time, and keep chipping away at it.
Your encouragement of letting go of what I can at the moment, and allowing myself to keep for now the things that feel like they need to stay, makes me feel braver about going through the pieces.
I'm cheering you on!
Wow! Look how clear the floor is!!! I remember the first time you did the basement. Absolutely amazing!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love that you are working on the storage stuff, let s know when it is all cleared out! Great job!!
well done! What a difference you have made on your journey of decluttering for yourself and your family. Awesome
It has some schmutz on it 😂😂😂 Right off the hop, my day is better lol
Haha, hooray!!! That makes my heart so happy 🦄💜🌟🦄💜🌟
Funky dunky schmutz lol
@@pinkroses135 😂😂😂 Gotta love her 😅
♥️❤️💗
Wow this is amazing as are you 😊❤️
You have done such a great job!
Was the pink lid over on the other side on top of other pink boxes?!
Great job.
You are doing so well x
Good Saturday morning Ms. Heart. Looks like you've got a busy day ahead of you cleaning and decluttering your basement and emptying all those cardboard boxes and sorting all those items. You can do it. You really know how to get it done. The important thing to remember throughout your busy Saturday cleaning and delcluttering is to take some time for yourself. 👍😊
Look at all that open space in your basement!❤ ❤ ❤
Great declutter
This is my favorite series
Nice job 👏 👍 👌 😀
That was so satisfying. Bye bye tossy tossy!
Send you love
That was a great big tossy tossy pile! Good job! Little by little the basement is improving. If you get overwhelmed look at your early vids in the series and see your amazing progress 💜💛
I'm not sure if Cass would approve that clear plastic drawer. In one of her last videos she talked about those. I have seen my butterfly parents is a lot of those and they really haven't help that much but they don't really use systems.
I thought the same thing! Drawers are clear so you can kind of see the inside, but unless you actually open it, things in it remain completely hidden. Miss Heart should just embrace the whole open, visual, everything displayed kind of style 🦋 🦋
December 2023: I found another stack of books and magazines to donate. Every day, 25 items get tossed, recycled, or donated. Tina, Al's wife
❤️👍🏻
Is the pink lid you are looking for the one over to the left on top of the clear pink bins?
I love that you’ve tackled your basement and are working through it. Ive been here from the beginning. You’ve let go a lot of garbage items and empty boxes. You’ve zoned many many things with like items. Which is like the most helpful step when beginning. You now have lots of categories with an abundance of bins. I am curious when we’ll see the next kon Mari declutter. When we’ll start seeing functional spaces like the kids area appear instead of only storage. You love crafting but we never see you use any of it. I was hoping to see some functional shelves with craft area set up soon. I am also very curious how your laundry craft storage area has been looking. Do you have much more to bring home from work to go through. Do you use all of the Christmas that you kept. I am curious if you will start keeping what you use and ever be a little more ruthless about not calling as much ‘“sentimental keep”. I know you have come a long way as it used to be hard with you to part with garbage items and now you let that go. But i know you also always want to help ppl by passing on usable items that are useful to others now rather then letting them sit and just hang out in bins not doing any thing. I’m curious what your plans and thought process is moving forward as far as what you’re keeping or how you’re deciding what stays. We know you know you are “safe” without the stuff as you prove time and again. I’d love to challenge you to take it to the push you need to really claim the basement. I know you really want to do it to please your boys by a certain date this year. As you’ve mentioned. I have to say doing little bits at a time is working so well for you. I’m just curious also is there much down there you haven’t looked through yet. Ive also noticed when you kon Marie the clothes you seem to do them all at once. As opposed to like the Christmas cave which was done in many parts. I am curious if you did all the Christmas at once do you think you would have been more likely to see it all at once and say i dont need this much like you did with the clothes. I know you broke it down to have room and not overwhelm yourself ❤but i kind of wonder if breaking it down into parts sort of tricked yourself into thinking you had less then you really did. I feel like there is a feeling that comes over you from piling it all there in one pile seeing it all at once that causes a helpful switch to flip with regard to letting go of more at a time. And i can go as far as to say i have been able to set limits on myself like i can keep 10 Christmas bins. Grab my favorites first and when those are full the rest goes etc. and trust me i was as bad if not much worse with my basement when i started. So i am no minimalist here criticizing your techniques. I am just wondering when we will see zoned usable spaces and not just bins for later. I think you deserve this now after all this hard work.
Proud of you! What do you think of decluttering some empty bins?
I wanted to suggest a fun and fabulous read to you- “The House That Cleans Itself’ written by a formerly messy person. She has some amazing and creative insights.
Hi!🦄
Hello my sweet friend, how are you today?! 🦄💜🌟
I adore your videos! Every Friday I look forward to a basement video👍🏼 I want to start making my own videos like this, but helping others. I know you film on your phone but what app do you use to edit? Sending lots of love🥰🥰
Just a question: did you decide to let go of the ‘mommy school’ booklets from when Brandon was little?
I love the way you acknowledge and talk through sentimental papers, but personally I find it so difficult to acknowledge AND distance myself from the paper at the same time!
My problem is ‘scraps’ of paper… my mum binned my notepads in one go when I was a teen, and so the already scattered “I’ll jot that down anywhere” turned into I just have floating bits of paper ALL OVER and it’s quickly overwhelming 😅
Any paper-specific tips?
An inspiration, as always, Miss Heart 🦄 💕 ✨
🦄 hi
My dearest friend, how are you?!!! 🦄💜🌟🦄💜🌟
@@ahoardersheart I’m good thanks and so impressed with your commitment to this process! xxx
How much time do you spend each week decluttering? Is it one go or multiple sessions?
Great work just wanted to let you know that the precious moments figurines sell for very little and a lot of people are trying to unload them on Marketplace. You probably need to start letting some of these larger collections go/sell in a lot to get to end of job in your basement. You might try engaging the help of friends/family to tackle a reduction in crafts and Christmas items-this way you can see your stuff maybe going to them or a charity of your choice. Great job, but in every decluttering there needs to be a large bag going to the donation center-that’s the only way to complete the task. Best of luck
Schmutz, haha, you used a German word. 😏
