Hi Teresa, Thank You for another Wonderfully Helpful video. I So Appreciate You for creating, sharing, inspiring, encouraging, and uplifting So Many of us. 😊 God Bless You also, and Lord willing, until next time. 🙏🏾✝🙏🏾 Love In Christ, Paula

You are a God send! Thank you for your videos. My teenage daughter is a slob! Im going to try out your ways and see how it helps🤞ill update in a few months!

Good ideas, Teresa. I am going thru home decor that I haven't used in long time. I packed up my denim days from home interior (if you remember them) and now I have a big wrought iron bakers rack I can display stuff. I have to tell you I have had fun pulling items out and using them for fall on my rack. Back to the junk drawers, with your tip in mine, I am gonna go thru the drawers again. Wish me luck. Great video, by the way. ❤😊

Those drawers have been around for a long time. Who came up with such an idea. They’re the perfect place to lose things and find lost things. Julie went through ours a while back. Thanks for your ideas👏

Cleaning my junk drawer as we speak and looking for my label maker (I think my daughter "borrowed" it). Another great video Teresa. :)

If i can make a suggestion: i used to wait until i had large trash bags full of clothes before i would donate them. Now if i have a brown grocery bag full, it gets dropped off. I have 3 bags of sweaters that we don't wear anymore ready to go today. And before I put my summer clothes away for the season, I'll purge from this too what I didn't wear. 😊

Good job! You have so many cute clothes. The short sleeve blouse at the end looks like a noght gown due to puffed sleeves. You look better in more fitted clothes since you have such a slim figure. So happy for your simplified wardrobe. Do you ever wear dresses? I wear dresses and skirts. Would love to see what you have besides the one linen skirt.

YES, I have too much stuff!!!

Wow! 28 items! I was so glad and feeling pretty proud of myself for donating two pairs of shoes as I was unpacking!😂 I understand that feeling of thinking a style is cute, and seeing it looks cute on myself but that feeling of not feeling good in it. I'm a T-shirt and jeans girl and when I try something new... I never feel as confident as I do in my jeans and T.

Thanks for the encouragement! 💓💓💓

Well, I threw out three items today, and another eight are in a box ready to donate! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Everyone’s taste is so different but if you wear what you like, you will feel confident and that is what will really show through. I did not like the multicolored sweater, but I really liked the blue one on you. My favorite was the beige and white striped shirt that you really liked. Where did you get that?

I love this room - so calm and peaceful and yet very cosy too. And the little squirrel is so cute! I grew up on the Beatrix Potter books, and the Tale of Squirrel Nutkin was one of my favourites

I wish I lived near you because your sweater at 6.50 is the kind I love! I can see why you don't like it though - the lighter coloured one suited you so much better.

I keep count if what i declutter also. Large print graph paper is good to use, and there are some you tubers who post a graph such as 2024 items in 2024. I'm not shopping this month, like you, and not planning on replacing what I discard. I love your channel! So helpful.😊

Just wear your clothes and be thankful. Don't worry about loving everything. Some of the things you say you love, it seems look baggy, but what you say make you look fat actually look fantastic. To me, clothing just makes me legal in public!!

I have all seasons in my closet. Blouses, long and short sleeve, sweaters, pants all the same color, goes red, tan, green, black, blue, and white. Works so good. All my jackets, sweatshirts, blazers, dresses in another closet.

I LOVE the multicoloured sweater you weren't sure of. Of course, you have to be comfortable in it. Maybe it is just my style. Very earthy.

Unfortunately my Mother raised us girls if we weren’t cleaning house for hours on the weekends, we weren’t “cleaning” house. Thank goodness The Fly Lady says in her book, ‘Sink Reflections’ even quick house cleaning or imperfect housecleaning is still a blessing to your home. This has helped me so much! I’ve watched a previous video of yours where the challenge was a “no spend month.” I’m so glad you just clarified that means on shopping and thrifting. You’re still allowed to buy groceries. I can do that! 😊

Which of these will you incorporate? How is your decluttering going? I love to hear about your progress and it is so encouraging for others!

I’m doing this now and feel encouraged by your video to let some of these things go! Years ago my friends would all take our “let go” pile and make a swap party out of it. It was always fun to see something that didn’t work for you look great on a friend.

I actually started decluttering in my closet yesterday and got rid of a lot of tops! Great video! 💙💙💙

Haha yeah I had no idea you were doing this mom 😂🤎

Inspiring!

Oh my goodness, how can you choose? Every single piece of clothing and color looked fabulous on you, Teresa! You’re a natural, beautifully stunning. I didn’t get anything out of this video, except I should diet and exercise more! 😅

Janell again. Great tips, I use to do estate sales for relatives and friends when family has gone to assisted living or passed. I started decluttering then. Don't want my only child to go through the stress! Still doing it a little bit each week and now going through mother in law's genealogy. I also have watched the "swedish death cleaning" posts and that has helped toss tons of photos and organize it in a scrapbook.

I can say, I have too much.. in the process of eliminating alot of items. It does feel good to get it under control.

The cream and taupe colors are so good on you!

This is a bit of a random video, but I am trying to connect as much as possible during this month to show you what I’m doing. Are you working on your closet as part of this challenge? Any tips? I explained this new method I discovered which I called the Bully Concept. I am no longer going to let my closet bully me and insult me and tell me I have to keep things because I spent good money on them. I will decide what I love and use and get rid of the rest with no guilt!

Definitely want to participate, but it will be difficult as we have recently moved to a new home, and we are trying to make repairs while unpacking. Not to mention, we will be taking a trip to Ny for a week this month. So participating in the challenge will be a challenge in itself. 😂 Any suggestions?

I am somewhat of a minimalist, but I am in! I bet there's more in this house that can go. And with holidays coming and 4 small kids, it'll pile up quickly.

So glad I happened upon your channel. I think we are in a similar season. Thank you for the challenge for October.

Thank you, thankyou, thankyou for this video..omgosh! I needed this!!!🎉❤

I am in. Working in my garage. Getting everything put up where it belongs. Your 3 box method is very helpful!

I needed this motivation! Thank you! My adult daughter and I are doing the challenge together! So far, together, we've eliminated over 100 items and it's only day 2!!

Teresa, I know everyone doesn’t decorate for Halloween (I do cute, not scary) and today was the day I went thru all my Halloween decor decluttered and downsized. It was to the point I wasn’t looking forward to decorating bcuz I had too much stuff! It feels good, and was a “kickstart” for my home/challenge.

“Inch by inch, life’s a cinch, yard by yard, life is hard.” Brilliant!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 My new mantra. 😊

I love the shelving unit you use for your pantry! How smart! Can you share where you got it?

Would you add anything to these five steps of the basics? Do you consider yourself a decluttering rookie or a master?

It is comical to me that someone criticized and acted like you were advertising your air b and b. Those always get plenty of business. It was obvious you were merely sharing ideas and thoughts on simple decor etc. So silly that some jump to make such false assumptions. Clearly they didnt watch the whole video. I think some people are really impatient and want a super short video and then theyll criticize the youtuber for talkin to fast. I admire you for your ability to have a real full life and post these lovely videos. Seriously ignore the negative comments. Some ppl need prayers badly!

I appreciate your honesty and your new goals for decluttering! I could be on board to declutter 100 items, but 1000…. 🤔😅

I needed this push. My decluttering challenges are based on this formula: day 1, 1 thing, day 2, 2 things, day 3, 3 things, and so on through 31 days. It adds up to just under 500 things for the month. I have extended it to the next month and it works out well. Time to try again!

Hi Teresa! YES to all of this! 👏 I have been decluttering more and more! Yes I feel like I have too much stuff! I will see if I can declutter 1000 items in October! Great challenge! Thanks for the video and the challenge! Good luck to everyone! 💓🤗💓🥰💓

Inspiring and lovely decor! I love that its not minimalist but it is simple and practical and comfortable !!!

Proud to call you My Friend😊 Julie got some great ideas from the content in your videos.👏 Thank you. I’m sure she’ll see this challenge.✅

Unfortunately, this video has nothing to do with a “decluttering challenge”, it's more like a thinly disguised advertisement to promote your B&B. How disappointing of you! 😕

Mrs B says, right on. I declutter a box every week. Opened a container this morning that hasn't been opened in over 2 years. Hmmm. I love thrifting one day a week. Most weeks nothing or just 1 thing. But they have to go with something or have a place to display. No more stuff in containers except holidays ( going through those things too) love your air b&b.

I'm in too. We're in a busy season of life--homeschooling 3 kids, activities, volunteering. I feel very overwhelmed and I feel it in my health. My goal: 10 minutes a day, 6 days a week in October decluttering my home.

Absolutely lovely, Teresa. Since I follow you I can see your “intentional” touches and beautiful decor in your ABNB. Your guests are spoiled! 🤎

I have been decluttering for the past year and this challenge will help me get some more declutting done. My home is already much more peaceful, but I can do better. I am all in. My goal will be 100+ items by the end of October.
