- I am using the master inventory list I created last week to do some decluttering this week. Join me on this little decluttering vlog as I share how I declutter with my inventory list, and go on a mini-rant about "minimalist perfectionists" and how my brand of minimalism is a bit more... chaotic.

✨ about my channel
I will be sharing the ups and downs of life and how to attempt to get through it in one piece. I’ll be sharing realistic life advice, minimalism tips, routines, vlogs, and anything else I think you would benefit from! Life is messy and unpredictable, and learning how to manage these hurdles is the first step to leading a happier and more intentional life. We're all trying our best out here, and I just want to share what is and isn't working for me.
Sending you all my love,
Grace
I am so impressed that you counted all your items…oh boy I would be counting for months!!! I’m a mom and I have totes of holiday decor and tons of my kids stuff!!! I honestly love my stuff but I know the day I move out of my rental home I’m gonna have a major meltdown. This video inspired to look for crap to declutter! Thank you!!!
let me tell you it was not a fun experience and I procrastinated SO much😅 on the decluttering front though: you've got this !!! just think about the things that truly bring joy to your life or things that you regularly use. if you find something in a box and forgot you had it, chances are, you probably don't need to be keeping it 😂 (coming from a recovering bag hoarder and finding random things in every pocket of every bag I ever owned lmao)
I love buying things but I also love returning things and decluttering. I need to stop loving buying things bc consumerism ain't good
you and me BOTH!!! I feel like I've been falling off the wagon lately ... definitely excited to do my no buy year in 2024 lmao
I always worry when I return things that the store just throws the item out instead of trying to resell it. It seems likely because of how quickly stores turn over inventory and how little it seems that big companies care about their products. Of course it depends on the type of item. That fear of waste prevents me from buying things I might return. I hope that helps a little!
so true!! I've gotten to a place that is basically like unless I'm obsessed with it, I will not be buying it. plus with clothes, I just made a rule for myself that I can't buy something new without decluttering something I already own. so it's become a one for one swap out situation and I need to like the new item more than something I currently own
You’ll help to make the world a better place! I’ve been spending less on material things for years now and it will get easier! It even gets fun, finding new ways to keep items longer😊
I’m new from your no buy year video ❤🎉 congratulations 🎊 I’m bingeing alllllll of your videos!! Love your personality and here for your journey!! Xo thanks for posting!
thank you so much!! this is so sweet😭💗
I definitely prefer your method of decluttering, it feels more realistic and attainable. Also, less wasteful to declutter over time and not everything all at once, then possibly regret it and purchase more. At least that's what I've seen other channels do when they declutter "EVERYTHING"
also who has the energy and time to declutter everything all at once ?? I went through each room in my apartment pretty thoroughly at the beginning (still not totally all at once) and that was so exhausting LOL
Hii Grace, I was sceptical at first about creating an entire inventory of my belongings but omg it makes the decluttering proceee so much easier. I love it, thank you for the idea :)
I'm glad it helped!!!
I Love your chaotic de clutter videos. I can relate so much. I am the same way walking back and forth around my house trying to get stuff done!!!🧡
LOL thank you!! I feel like I need to start a whole new "series" of videos just called "chaotic decluttering"😂😂😂
I love love love this! This is the type of content that inspires me in my minimalism journey. Youre so right about decluttering. Its such a slow process but I see vids all the time of people getting rid of SO MANY items on a weekend.
But I think when you just become intentional its much more sustainable.
this comment means so much to me!! and truly that point is all I'm trying to convey here!! it's all about just being more intentional with our purchases and decluttering 😊
I love your realistic videos! :) Thank you for sharing with us!
thank you!! 😭💗 it's my pleasure
took the Chance to do some body doubling! Put a box of stuff out for my neighbors to take. Whatever's left after a week gets donated.
I agree that alot of minimalism declutter videos are unrealistic, it has taken me 5 years to get a place where I am happy with my level of stuff 🙃 it took 4 of those 5 years for my husband to realise he wanted to join in lol
that's what I'm currently working on now 👀 lol project boyfriend
@@gracenevitt it may take him a while, but just keep doing it for yourself and he'll realise in his own time how much it would benefit him to do it too 😊
so true!!!
9:30 LMAO! You're the only one I've seen that was realistic about that cuz I think that all the time when ppl say that 😂 I love how real u r about the TH-cam community
thank you!!! this is truly all I aim for!! I'm out here just like everyone else and I hate how manicured/unrealistic some minimalist youtubers can be... or just so detached from the reality that most people have jobs that drain their energy lol 🙃 small spurts of decluttering is usually all I can handle at a time 😂
It's kind of strange to me that I find those types of videos boring where ppl love that type of content but I like more realistic videos like u and the Carla project cuz yall live more of a realistic lifestyle and declutter here and there and just say what's rlly on your mind. You're very funny too about it 😂
I totally agree!! I think everyone has their tastes, but sometimes those videos just feel a little too distanced and unreletable to me... I just try to keep it real bc it feels nice to see content where you feel seen and can relate to it!! in my opinion👀
Actually I think you have so little stuff!! You are doing amazing! You have inspired me to count all of my stuff ahah I just pray I have less than 500))
it's super eye-opening, I'll tell you that much hahah
If I remember correctly the stuy town farmers market used to have a drop off for clothes recycling- that was like seven years ago though so not sure if they still do!
I'll look into that!
Where did you get your glasses? I love them!
I got them from lens crafters a couple years ago! they're vogue apparently??? but I just liked how they looked lol I promise I'm not a brand girlie
