Do yourself a favor: get the same type of hangers! :D Makes everything look sooo much better and everything hangs in the same height etc. Get thin ones, you wont regret it! Also, dont beat yourself up too much, you got rid of a lot, minimalism is so much more than getting rid of as lot as possible, as long as everything you own makes you happy and you use it by the year, thats the important thing. I used years to downsize and to get to where I am at now, I used to count my clothing and I thought I never decluttered enough.. Today I practice practical minimalism and everything I own makes me happy. Do you. Happy journey
You’re choices of items to get rid of was really good. You should try the same with the clothes you kept. I bet you’d still find some realistic scenarios to be able to minimize just a tiny bit more… Remember with things like jewellery, chose the “hell, yes” and most valuable. You’ll be dealing with jewellery from now until you’re 80!! Truthfully, it comes into our lives again and again and again. The clothes, books and art - again, are quality, quality, quality only. Save up to buy just some things once in a while. Then, save for top quality items you are sure will outlast “fashion”. You’ll find that things you love that have quality can be worn again and again (sometimes even past several wears before needing a full laundering - spot clean, and air out quality clothes; then wear again. I’m proud of you. 🇨🇦
Something that might help is getting all the same hangers instead of different ones. It makes your closet feel soo organized and clean, etc. Also, you could try to center your closet drawers so they don’t ram into the inside wall and they can open nicely. Just some suggestions that have helped me, but you’re killing!
I have to say, it was so stressful to watch this process! I’m glad you pushed through, but there are so many easier ways to declutter. I really love Dana K White’s “no mess declutter strategy,” and “container concept,” which doesn’t involve emptying your space. For decluttering clothes, I only take out my “no” and “maybe” items, so it’s easy to see right away how well your “yes” items fit in the space, and then you don’t have that second and third step of putting things back. And I’m so glad you took the dresser out of the closet! 😅 Drawers that can’t open create hidden storage and add to your overall clutter level. But from one Rebecca to another, well done! New subscriber!
So sorry it was stressful!! I will take a look into those decluttering methods, thank you so much for sharing those :) and YESSS so glad I finally got rid of those drawers
I have clear plastic drawers instead of a traditional dresser because they are inexpensive and the force me to fold stuff and put it away neatly because it will show if I don't. I may get a real dresser one day. They cost at least $30£ though and they break easily.
Thank you for sharing, I really enjoyed your video. I’ve been decluttering & organising for 5 months now, it’s so hard ! I’ve done my kitchen, laundry, under stairs, linen cupboard & I’m doing my closet atm, still a lot to go, I find it satisfying yet anxiety provoking to get rid of things.
Another thing I’d do is try to reduce down to where you can get rid of the few plastic hangers you have. And get rid of the dresser you can hardly open!
Hi, I just subbed 😀 Your videos are really nice, down to earth, no artificial drama, totally relatable and also funny. I've been trying to find a minimalism channel like this for such a long time. Found it! 👍 😍
I like to declutter by like items. I pull out only all my long sleeve so I can see how many I have of that one item. Then I can see if I have too many long sleeves. Then all the pants etc.
Of course you will declutter again,it is a continuing process…I make it a habit when I have a minute and am in the closet to pull something out and put it in my donate bin.
When I started going through my clothes and the same thing happened to me, I went through my clothes once more during the following week, i.e. I threw all the clothes that I had decided to keep on my bed again this is how I convinced myself that I only have the clothes I like and want to keep when I keep them agen. That help me, yes that is lots of work but when I get just to it it when faster and faster every time
Honestly can’t wait to see your channel grow! I really love your content keep it going :) I pitiably grabbed out my jewelry box and decluttered with you lol
What I would do in this situation with the maybe pile is if you decide to keep a maybe item find something from the keep pile to swap it out for. That will be 5 more items down.
Hey, I like your channel. Keep going!! Small tip I got from another RUclipsr "But first coffee" that maybe helps you. Give your self a limit per clothes category. Like you want to keep 6 sweaters. So 1 sweater goes in, 1 goes out. That way you're not buying a lot off stuff and trow them out, in a few months. And it cost less space, money and time. I did it some months ago and I am buying less because I have to throw something out and right now I want to keep everything :) I love to see you next time!!
I also kept my dvd collection that I think represent an important part of myself. :) For now they're in a big luggage on the side because I'm moving bit I thought it was important to me to keep them.
I've watched maybe 75+ videos on decluttering. One thing I do is write a date the day I clean up and stick it in the closet on the wall. That way the next time you clean out, you will know how long it been. I ALWAYS COUNT how many items I donate and it makes my brain feel like I've really have accomplished a great thing. I do noticed you don't wipe down, vaccum behind things. Do that and you will feel better!
Agee it gets easier to declutter with time. Im currently on my 3 massive declutter and at the moment it’s easier for me to decide, however I’m dealing with the sentiment items and those are harder. Seven years of doing this “minimalist” journey and I’m still not there. 🤓
Beautiful clip ! ❤ Very nice Vlog, Can You make clip.. Organisation, cleaning office desk - Declutter Paperwork your office? cleaning desk old papers, mails, documents ... sorting ripping papers, documents ... can you make that clip?
I got it from Amazon, I looked at my orders and it says that particular one is unavailable now :( but if you type in ‘desol women longline sports bra’ this brand looks very similar :)
Okay, you need to get rid of a lot more stuff. You just need to do a second and third pass through all your clothes. People think going through and saying "I like this" is a reason to keep it. But nobody needs 14 white tank tops, even if a white tank top is a staple. Especially if someone doesn't have to pay to do laundry, it's very easy to get by having only 7 t-shirts, 5 work shirts, 2 dressy shirts, etc.
I never had much. I hate to shop. I have 3 pairs of shoes. 3 pairs of slacks. One pair of nice slacks. No skirts or dresses. I am a 72 y.o. grandmother. The environmental issues keep me buying second hand or getting clothes from friends and family. Tina, Al's wife
Put the stamps you found in your sewing box into your wallet as they expire at the end of the year. If you leave them in the box they'll go the same way as the medication you binned. Great work on the declutter 👍🏻
In the UK, if they don't have a barcode or QR code on them then yes, they do. It's gonna catch a lot of people out! Check Royal Mail's website for the exact details on this.
Please be careful with marketplace, sometimes there are some creepers looking for women and if they see that you are alone then I don't know but it concerns me. I would mention a husband or leave it out and communicate through the door or phone only. Love your series. Thank you
Your sorting and your storage is perfect I'admit it but I'don't undertand why you don't wear a belt in your pants ? You 'll see it Will hold better and it Will be prettier , it's à friendly advice but otherwise the video is great Bravo !!! 😊😅👍💯🙋♂️👏
Haha sorry for my weird accent!! ‘Zootopia’ was region adapted in the UK to be called ‘Zootropolis’ you can see the name is different on the dvd cover ☺️

@@TheAfterWorkChannel I also recommend to watch @Christina Mychas and @The Suitcase Designer videos, they are really nice and inspiring 💕
I agree. Matching hangers are the best. But since she already has a lot of the wooden ones, I would go with them.
I was coming here to say the same thing... matching THIN hangers will be helpful 😊👍

Don't feel guilty for keeping so many clothes. For me, it's a sign of success in making the right choices when shopping 😉 Hugs from Spain ❤💛❤

I was going to way the same about hangers being all the same. It's a game changer 🙌
Velvet hangers - game changers.. Wooden ones only for coats.

I can't bring myself to take everything that is hanging. I just flip through and take out what is not working
I have clear plastic drawers instead of a traditional dresser because they are inexpensive and the force me to fold stuff and put it away neatly because it will show if I don't. I may get a real dresser one day. They cost at least $30£ though and they break easily.
The Marie Kondo method of taking everything out of the wardrobe at once can be overwhelming and self defeating.
You have done a good job.
Thank you for sharing, I really enjoyed your video. I’ve been decluttering & organising for 5 months now, it’s so hard ! I’ve done my kitchen, laundry, under stairs, linen cupboard & I’m doing my closet atm, still a lot to go, I find it satisfying yet anxiety provoking to get rid of things.

Bianca that’s so sweet! Thank you ☺️ and welcome !!!!
I totally agree ❤️
try the hanger method. you put everything on a hanger and if you worn something change the hanger. Sometimes we lie to ourselves.
I like to declutter by like items. I pull out only all my long sleeve so I can see how many I have of that one item. Then I can see if I have too many long sleeves. Then all the pants etc.
That’s a really smart way to go about it! I’ll do that if I do another closet declutter thanks

If you are investing in yourself, then you never lack wealth. the best investment is , investing in you .anyway liked your videos . a fellow creator
I always try things on before decluttering, never a good idea 🥲 I can relate
100% would not recommend doing it haha, thanks for watching :)
That's the hardest part of minimalism. Not buying it in the first place!

Did you know that you should take expired and unwanted medications to the pharmacy and ask them to dispose of it?
Yes, I've been told I should do that...not sure the reason why though. Guessing it's a safety thing?
@@TheAfterWorkChannel yes it’s safety because meds shouldn’t go into the garbage as they end up absorbing into the earth or our waters. 🙂
@@laurysteinke8921 that makes sense. Thanks for letting me know ☺️
Put it on the side by the bins if he doesn't turn up-- someone will probably end up taking it from there
Good idea - hopefully someone just picks it up !!
Put the stamps you found in your sewing box into your wallet as they expire at the end of the year. If you leave them in the box they'll go the same way as the medication you binned.
Great work on the declutter 👍🏻
Wow today I learned stamps expire !!! Never knew that, thank you ☺️☺️
