Today I'm sharing a bit about going clutter blind. Even if you're pursuing minimalism and doing decluttering, you might miss a few spots in your home! Watch this video to learn about this concept and what areas of your home may be cluttered and you don't even realize it!

When I Declutter, I take a picture of the room - that gives me a little bit of distance from the objects - that allows my eye to see things that I have clutter blind to and I “see” it more.
Me too!!😄 that's helpful
I do exactly that! Sometimes I surprise myself and think ‘ gosh it looks really good, I’m not changing anything’ but more often than not I can see what needs to go or be moved elsewhere!
I’ve done the same 👍it works
Yes a photo can be eye opening. Sometimes I’ve taken a photo of one of my pets and then notice a cluttered situation in the background. Photos definitely help to see “things” more clearly.
Such a great idea, had never thought of doing that, thank you 😊
I recently deep cleaned my house over the last 2 days and one thing I did which helped me was to remove all the knick knacks of the room leaving the base items in the room/space and just start fresh. As you place items you want to keep one by one and you can start to visually see what you care about and what items caused clutter. Additionally you can decide if items needs to go or simply does there need to be a storage solution/ needs to be in a better place that is more efficient. The storage solutions doesn’t necessarily require buying an item but instead repurposing something. But sometimes buying storage solutions can be really helpful and it doesn’t need to cost an arm and a leg. I’ve realized that not only does decluttering matter but keeping everything clean and the functional design of my home is a bigger component than I initially realized. You can’t really have a clean looking home if your storage along with the amount of items that you have aren’t catering to your lifestyle and what you need.
This is a good idea. I did something similar a few weeks back when deep cleaning. On surfaces or floating shelves that have items (plants, frames, knick knacks) I use the three item design style and vary the levels of the items. This has a more aesthetic appeal to the area and definitely keeps it from looking busy and/or cluttered.
I like reusing a cardboard box for a while until I decide I really need a plastic storage box. Most of the time, I can repurpose as I declutter.
This is something I was thinking of doing for a while now. Thanks for the reminder!
@@sct4040I use boxes that online orders came in for organization! It's perfect and if they get super dirty I can replace them easily.
I have been to apartments that were very cluttered where you can't really walk a straight line anywhere and I thought how do they not see what an intolerable mess this is? "Clutter blind" is the expression I was looking for.
Slowly decluttering each day… got rid of some sick looking house plants.
Love it! Slow and steady wins the race :)
I share a house so some of the common areas I can't completely control. My bedroom, home office and bathroom are minimal and serene so those are the spaces I spend the most time in.
Small kitchen too. Yes streamlined helps so much.
I notice the clutter & sadly try not to on purpose due to living with so many people with almost no control over any space aside from my own bedroom.
It weighs on my anxiety.
That sounds frustrating! It's hard when you share a space and you can't have much control. Feel for you! Maybe focus on the space you do have control over? Just a thought, but that sounds difficult
@@ElinLesser yes. I do the best with my space as I can.
So good. My “spring cleaning” is usually more of a “quarterly de-clutter” because I can become clutter blind quickly. But I’m curious how folks with pets declutter and tidy up regularly. Do you have a dedicated spot for your dog toys/beds/chews/etc.? How does your home look so fresh and tidy with a dog? 😅
Did you say podcast? I love podcasts so yeah definitely looking into that:)❤
what's the SPF in the Prove moisturizer? it's not on their website
Loved this. Thank you.
did you just edit & reupload or is this what you posted this morning
@sliceoflight where did you get the gold mirror with jewelry tray?

Video starts at 3:50

There's no "d" in refrigerator. Just saying.

Great tips! A note on the microphone - please move it a little further away from its current location. Could hear the saliva in this video...
Are we just getting straight to LONG sponsor blabs before posting video content? 🙄
See that little bar at the base of the video? You can always move it past the sponsor content if it bothers you that much. No need to post petty commentary that isn't a benefit to anyone else watching the video and reading the comments for 'helpful and worthwhile' input.
I skip through, hate them too. I absolutely hate commercials. Why is a minimalist trying to sell me something I don’t need?
@@williamclark1244 it’s not petty, it’s absolutely annoying.
I’m looking for the video where Elin shows a Claire V bag, but I can’t find it. Maybe some of you remember which video it is?🤎
