    I hope you realize how far you’ve come and give yourself a big hug. You used to do the Konmari method so you could see everything and now you can open a bin and make decisions. You are such an inspiration!

    I love that you can give away the craft supplies to people with younger kids. That will be such a blessing in this year where everything seems so expensive.

    You are getting to be sooo organized with the Christmas stuff. Not only is it all together, it is in bins wherever possible. The bins even match the season's colors! And they have sub-categories by room / shelf / category. I repeat: SUB-CATEGORIES!!! You have come incredibly far.

    You're doing such a great job with the decluttering. Each season as I put out decor, I look at the things I didn't put out and donate the things I just don't love anymore.

    I'm curious, after you eventually clear out your own home, would you ever consider being a decluttering partner for other folks with hoarding disorder?

    As I’ve gotten older, I’ve paired down my Christmas to a couple of plastic drawers in the closet. Every year when I put it out, I look at the things I don’t put out. I only put out what I’m going to have the energy to put away and what doesn’t get put out gets donated.

    VERY glad you immediately thought of teachers! If you find a teacher or school block that you can donate to (maybe revisiting a child’s old teacher or even the school librarian), they will definitely make use of those foam crafts ❤

    So amazingly proud of you. This decluttering session was awesome. The strides you are making are just fantastic Ms Heart. The shift in your thought process from last year to this are filling me with joy, to see how much you’ve built on your really positive re-evaluation of stuff. You seem so much freer and lighter now. The things you are giving away will make other younger children who are less fortunate happy and more importantly get used to bring joy, not just sit in a box. So many younger people are struggling financially and these donations of ornaments will make someone else’s Christmas easier. ❤

    great job..it really is....something in you has changed, its like im feeling with my decluttering.....im sick of the stuff i just want most of it gone now....ive been doing a decluttering one item a day for a year and only 5 weeks to go, but it really hasnt made much of a dent in the stuff i have,,,,,,however, as the year has gone on my ability to let go of stuff has improved alot. i dont feel so attached to the clothes i couldnt part with at the beginning of the year. i dont need to have endless books cluttering the shelves that i will never read or look at.....
    so in january im starting a 30 day decluttering challenge....i know there are 31 days in january but......well i can add the extra day on if i want.....thats 465 items and if i do the extra day that 496 items out.....can hardly wait...scared because i will be letting go stuff i love/like but i dont wear it, dont read it, dont use it......wouldnt have got to this stage without the one item a day for a year decluttering...its shifted something inside of me.....

When we had my Mum move in with us I had a big declutter of our decorations, I donated them to a dementia care home because they had so little for the people who lived there, I felt so good knowing they had trees, garlands, lights and decorations and they told me that the lovely residents were really happy.

  • @minimaladjacent
    @minimaladjacent หลายเดือนก่อน

    pre utube tip I think? is if you have a lot of decor to put half out and 6 months put the other half out.
    I also put other seasons aways in xmas totes when the xmas stuff comes out. for some pictures I don't swap the photos but the whole frames. add decals to the frames that are yr round and also xmas ones.
    I have a bunch of things I don't put out every yr.. .somethings I've had decades and tired of looking at them but don't want to toss them either. it also depends on themes/colours too, last yr I didn't do an extensive train set up... and again this yr keeping it small. I have downsized a lot of decor...buying some more but mostly buying more for the outside.
    could also be bc I will leave xmas stuff up till spring so I see it longer than most ppl. keeping the cheer around longer... I slowly start to take things down and end in march/april.

    Could you do a video someday on all your decluttering "tools"? I know you share your insights and steps as you go. But I find it helpful to have a video that explains a process. For example: You used to start a decluttering session by getting rid of the easiest thing to let go of. It's such a tiny thing but it works really well.
    I'm a member of several decluttering groups on FB and whenever I want to recommend your channel to someone I cannot point to a video that summarizes your approach. Sending lots of love ❤
