Hello everyone and welcome to another extreme declutter with me at my parents' house. We are back at my parents' house where I am helping my mom declutter 30+ years of stuff. My parents are doing some major renovations to their home and because of that they really want to downsize, my parents have never really done a major declutter before, so there is stuff in this house that they have held onto for years and years, plus items that they have inherited from loved ones who have passed. This is going to be an ongoing project; I will be bouncing back and forth from my house to my parents' house for a very long time. I am so excited to help my parents declutter their home and to help make their spaces more minimal for them to enjoy. These decluttering videos with my mom are my absolute favorite videos to make, my mom and I have such a great time decluttering! Lots of fun, lots of laughs and lots of motivation & in today's video we are working on decluttering their dining room. In the last video, I explained in more detail, why we jumped from the upstairs to the dining room, so I will link the last video in the description box below! I really hope you enjoy today's video, thank you so much for being here with us! We appreciate you so much xoxoxo

Haven’t even made it past the intro yet, and I think this series needs to be called “we’ll ask Ryan.” He just has stuff in every room 😂
🤣 "the we'll ask Ryan" series LMBO, im seriously 🤣🤣
I feel like both Ryan and I have waaay too much of our stuff left at our parents, we honestly had no idea that much of our stuff was there, good thing 99% of it is getting out of of there! Thanks so much for watching and being here with us 🥰
@@danniraearranged I also have stuff at my parents, but feel like it’s more packed away in the basement than all over. It makes me happy that you are going through this with your mom so your parents can have a nice house to move around in as they get older! And once I got into the video and the checklist appeared, of course I had to laugh at the “ask Ryan” part. Considering what I commented earlier 😂😂
I agree! I’m totally curious about Ryan’s reaction to all this stuff. I want a follow up video regarding his comments and decisions. 😂
I was thinking the same thing lol
I didn’t mind the background noise one bit. 😊 It was like hanging out with family. Fun to see you with your mum!
I do. I understand kids need to play, but they also need to understand that Mom and grandma are working and recording.
I love that you have a category of "ask Ryan". You are so funny together, the random laughing is wonderful. Don't worry about the background noise. I felt like I was with my family.
Whats funny, is Ryan could care less about this stuff, most of it he had no idea it was there or didnt remember it, hes like "just get rid of it🤣" but my mom still insists we ask Ryan. LMBO and awww that is awesome, I love seeing this comment! Your so sweet Sharyle, I appreciate you so much, always so HAPPY to see you here with me! Hugs 🥰
I too enjoyed the background noise. It makes it feel more real life. And your mom is adorable!
For decluttering gifts, I told everyone in my family (grandparents and aunts/uncles I talk to) I was decluttering and told them the supposed benefits and made that a whole conversation point first. Why I wanted to, what I was learning, how excited I was to start etc.
Then when I got to a gift they gave me that I didn't want, depending on the relationship I either called them and basically said "Hey! I came across this gift you gave me, it's beautiful/funny/cool but I realized it's not being appreciated in my house and was wondering if you wanted it or would be offended if I gave it to someone else?". Or simply got rid of it with the understanding that it was a gift and I could always say "Oh I gave it to a friend who loved it since I wasn't using it and they seemed to appreciate the item more than me and I felt that it honoured the gift better to have someone love it more than I could give it" even if it wasn't true.
And then I made sure to let people know I didn't want items as gifts any more unless it was specifically on a gift I wanted but I love consumables (soap bath bombs, jellies/jams, homemade snacks).
For family heirloom type things, I asked around first making sure it was known I DID NOT WANT the item and it was a take it or I was going scenario.
If someone got offended I reminded them that I loved that they thought of me, but me removing an item from my home did not mean I didn't appreciate them. I was thankful but I didn't want to hold onto something for fear they would be offended. Admittedly I have a few members get offended and then I just got rid of the item anyway because my life and home is about me and my sanity, and if they are so childish to get offended they could just not come over. Boundaries sometimes need to be laid and that's ok too, but I won't take their shenanigans personally.
I agree with this entire comment 100%! I really love how you said, that you explain to the people who have given you gifts or an item, that you think it's beautiful, cool, it's a wonderful gift but it's just not being appreciated here, I really love how you put that. I also love the idea of explaining to them that you know someone else who would really love and appreciate that item. That would make me happy if I were to give something to someone and they didn't want it but they knew someone else who would really love it, I would want that person who would really love and appreciate it to have it and to get use out of it vs it sitting somewhere collecting dust.
I also like consumable items too, like soaps, toothpaste toothbrushes stuff like that essential items, perishable items too. It is sometimes really difficult to talk about these things with loved ones, and I just think the way you've gone about handling those situations is just a really perfect way to go about it. I wish that I was more honest at times, because I've noticed that when I'm not, I end up with a lot of stuff that I really don't want. And sometimes I just go ahead and donate those items. Most likely they're not going to ask me about the items that they've given me. Like for example I completely forgot that I gave any of that stuff to my mom, which by the way I have no idea why I gave her all that stuff 😂 but I never once asked her about it, I completely forgot about those gifts. But I suppose you do run that risk of possibly offending someone, but as you perfectly stated, reminding them that you appreciated that item and that you love that they thought of you, is a great way to handle the situation. I personally wouldn't get offended if someone got rid of something I gave them because I don't want anything to be a burden to anyone. But I know not everyone feels the same. Thank you so much for sharing this with me, this was such a great comment, really appreciate it and thank you so much for watching, so happy you're here with us 🥰 xo
Also totally agree! I have some folk who got upset when I said I didn't want physical gifts, because that's how they show love. I just kept saying that I really appreciate it when they get me things but the greatest gift they can give me is honoring my goal and values. And that if they see something that makes them think of me, I would just as much appreciate a call or text!
If most are like me, I don't recall all the gifts I've given. Also I wouldn't be offended if you gave away a gift that no longer served you. In fact it has been a long standing practice in my family to not give gifts between adults. Only the kids received gifts. I'm more about the food, the company & experiences rather than the stuff. It makes the holidays & birthdays more pleasurable.
Tell your mom we can’t even see her dust! Great job decluttering. I need to get to decluttering before I go back to work. One thing I noticed in this video that I’ve been told but never seen in action. They say if you get gifts you don’t want you hold on to them because you feel guilty getting rid of a gift. All that stuff you kept saying “I gave you that?!?!” You didn’t remember but she did! Just let it go people! ❤️❤️
Edit: After I left the comment, you and your mom talked about it! 😂
🤣 She was so so concerned about the dust, lol. I told her, "this isnt a clean with me, they wont see it, unless I do a close up" and then she made it a point to tell me like 8 times "your not doing any close ups right" 🤣🤣 And I agree with you 1000% I honestly couldnt remember any of that stuff I gave her, that is such a great point Kellie, wow, I didnt even think of that. Your right, "just let it go"
HA! I would like to have more conversations like that, i think that type of stuff is important to discuss, esp. gift giving, thats a tough one!
Always so HAPPY to see you here with me dear, thank you for watching 🥰
“With all the lightbulbs I have I should be able to find one”😂😂😂 At least your mom is self aware!! I love the dynamic between you two! You seem to have a lot of fun!!
🤣🤣 i was laughing so hard when editing this video and heard her say that, I'm like oh thank goodness she knows that she has a store's worth of light bulbs 😆 awww your so sweet Kristen, thank you so much for watching and being here, we're so happy you're here with us 🥰 xo
Please do a video with Ryan when you ask him what he wants and doesn’t want and then your mama aswell! 😂 I don’t know why I think it would be so funny xx
🤣🤣🤣 I would LOVE to do that, OMG that would be hilarious! Im picturing it now. I'm gonna try my hardest to make that happen. Great Idea HA! Always so HAPPY to see you Here with me dear, thank you for watching🥰🥰
@@rev.robynyoung7680 🤣🤣🤣...thats exactly correct! He'd just sit there like "nope, dont want that, dont want that either" 😆
I love your videos with Mom and all you guys giggling around, lol. If someone gives me something I don't like or need or use, I can accept it graciously, and tell them pls in the future, I don't need anymore things sitting around to collect dust. In the future , instead of gifts, lets go out to eat instead or get each other gift cards. Lets make memories together. ❤ I will keep something I don't like or need or use for a time, then pass it on or donate it to someone else who will cherish and use it. One persons trash is another person's treasure.💕
I love the random noise in the background. Real life! The drums sound like a comedy soundtrack. 🤣🤣
The seasonal marketing team really got to your mother good. 😂 the soaps the decorative towels the candles i mean wow. At least with the candles she wont need to worry about a power outage.
🤣🤣🤣
Ugh This is true!! I have some of the same “seasonal “ towels and candles 🙈
It's 12:17am and I CAN'T QUIT WATCHING! I ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤watching you declutter your mom's house. You and her are so funny
Just because of you, I have 39 more things I decluttered.So far, 2 truck loads, 1 car load gone plus working on 39+++. You're my very FAVORITE! You INSPIRE ME!
The background noise was just another layer of life. We need a video of you "Asking Ryan" 😂
Your Mom is so cute and she did a great job letting things go.
This comment makes me feel so much better LOL I was really nervous about the background noise being super distracting, there was so much going on LOL oh my gosh I had to put "ask Ryan" on the checklist, considering we're literally asking Ryan all of the time 🤣🤣 and you are so sweet, my mom and I appreciate you so much, we are so happy you're here with us thank you 🥰 oh and PS, I would love to get Ryan on the channel for a video, unfortunately he's just as shy as my mom only worse LMBO but who knows it could happen!?
Burp “excuse me” 🤣🤣🤣 hilarious
🤣🤣🤣
I agree once an item is given, it becomes that person's possession they can keep it, throw it, burn it, donate anything they wish, it's thiers :)
You are such a hoot and a great daughter to help your mom declutter. She is so cute and I am proud of her having the courage to "Let Go". I, too, have a hard time getting rid of things that have been gifted, but after watching this I am rethinking downsizing my "stash". Thank you for all you do and I throughly enjoy watching your videos.
The best advice I've ever heard regarding gifts that you don't want: The act of giving the gift is done. It's yours now. The whole point is the gifting, not the guilt associated with the thing. Also, in the future when people ask what you would like for Christmas, birthday, etc, if they insist on giving you or your children something, tell them that you would much rather have an experience gift! Go out to eat together, trip to the zoo or the movies, pass to the local water park, etc. ☺️
I LOVE this comment so much!!! I couldn't agree with you more! I feel the same way, once you give someone something, it's there's to do what they want with that item/gift, no strings attached. And I love idea of experiences vs gifts, having a family dinner for example, that's the best gift! Thank you so much for commenting, watching and being here, we're so happy you're here with us 🥰 xo
Hubby and I enjoyed your video. And, both of us did not mind the background noise. We were watching you and your mom. Let the rest of the family enjoy them self. Even the drums and guitar was good. Love seeing your mom's smile. She is doing amazing getting rid of stuff.
Your mom has the most contagious laugh. Love it
🤣🤣 Every time she starts laughing, I cannot help but laugh with her HA!
And you are so SWEET! This comment is gonna make her day! Thank you, we appreciate you so much 🥰 xo
@@danniraearranged and I laugh with you both
The background didn’t worry me ❤️
Thank goodness, I was so worried that all of that background noise was going to be a super big distraction. So this comment makes me feel so much better 🥰
You and your mother are so beautiful - you really do look like your mother.
I LOVE those beautiful old oil lamps!
My 3 year old's favorite thing to say is "holy buckets" hahaha love it
Thank you for mentioning the Fat Grilling machine. We have an air fryer now, so I immediately put the grilling machine in the spot where I put my donations. 😊♥️👍
Hi Danni this was so much fun no apology needed for any background noise I really wasn’t taking any notice lol 😂 I have no problem getting rid of anything someone gave to me everything I have is what I want if I don’t like the item it goes.
I love how you laugh and joke around with your mom reminds me of the times I had with my mom.Your making great memories as well as helping your mom out she’s such a fun lady love her once again your mom did a great job and you did too Danni 🥰😀
Oh my gosh that makes me feel so much better, when I was editing today's video I kept thinking oh my gosh I really hope that the background noise is not a super big distraction, there was so much going on 🤣 yes I totally agree with you, I think once someone gives you something, it's your to do what you want with it. Besides I'd rather someone else actually get use out of an item I gifted, vs it sitting and collecting dust. And yes, oh my gosh sooo many fun memories we're creating. It's seriously so much fun working with my mom. We appreciate you so much Wendy, always, always so HAPPY to see you here with us! Hugs 🥰
Loved the video. You and your mom together crack me up. You redoing your parents house are my favorite videos
Hi Danni. Regarding gifts I’m very honest with gifts. I live below the poverty line and I ask for a bill to be paid for one month or a gift card for the grocery store or something fun I couldn’t afford to pay for myself. I will save up donations and take them to a thrift store a couple of towns over. I hate having lots of stuff. It feels oppressive. I’m so impressed with the progress you and your Mum have made!
YES! 😍😍😍
🥰🥰😘
Don’t apologize, I loved all the background noise. Your family is wonderful!!
I'm totally binge watching your videos and every time you bend over with laughter I crack up laughing. If it had been me, I would be scared I would pee myself. Ryan needs to make an appearance in a video!
I believe the value of a gift is in the giving. Once it's out of your hands, it's none of your busines what happens to it! If you are in receipt of an unwanted gift, appreciate the thought that accompanied the giving of it to you, then pass it on. Someone else will value it.
My grandmother had a little cast iron stove like that which she displayed in her kitchen. Hers was a model that was used by door to door salesmen to show what thr stove would look like before you ordered one. I think my mother might have gotten it. Ah memories!
The end of the video and I'm sitting here going, "there was noise?" Lol. Made me feel like I was at my family's house!
Danni,
When you’re unpacking the bookcase, if your mom says she doesn’t want something, put it in the donation bin straight away, either wise it’s doubling up having to have a conversation about it again.
Don't get me wrong Dani...My mom horded. GET RID OF MOST! You will inherate all. Now or later. I had to clean up a crazy amount of stuff. Save yourself. Love the moms!!
Yes! Oh my gosh I agree 💯! Ever since decluttering over at my parents house, I've been thinking a lot about all of the stuff my parents have inherited from loved ones who have passed, and not only do they have a lot as it is, but then all of the stuff they inherited just added so much more to all of the things, and I was thinking about how my brother and I could potentially one day inherit all this stuff. I'm glad that my parents are really loving the results of decluttering, because eventually this stuff does go somewhere. I'm sure that was a lot of time and energy for you, not to mention there's a lot of emotions involved too when you inherit all that stuff. "Save yourself, love the moms" 💯! Thank you so much for commenting and sharing this with me, and thank you so much for watching and being here we're so happy you're here with us 🥰
@@danniraearranged They mean well. I still have stuff. I have 4 boys all in their 30's. They don't want great grannie's tea cups!
I'm so proud of your Mom! Gives me hope that I can help my Mom with her house (after I finish my 2+ years attempt at mine of course...). Her and my Dad plan on getting an RV and moving into it to travel the US and she's going to have to downsize A LOT, she's much like your Mom in the fact that she has TONS of holiday decorations and little tchotchkes all over the place so that's going to be fun downsizing. To be honest I didn't hear any background noise but that could be because of my AC next to me while I fold my dreaded fitted sheets... Thank you for being you. I feel like I'm hanging out with a friend and we share a bit of the same sense of humor so I giggle quite often watching you. You've also helped to pull me out of my funk and get going more than once recently. So keep on keeping on you amazingly beautiful Woman!
OMG! Your mom's house reminds me of my late grandparents house! I remember going to their house to explore...can only imagine the work it took to declutter and pack up that house after they both passed!🤦🤷😳😁
Loved your ending and your mom is beautiful! She's camera ready for the cook-off.
I do think you should name this series the House of Cribbage. I know in my heart you will be finding lots more.
Your mom is doing so great. You can tell this process is getting easier for her. It's hard to pass on things received as gifts. I love that you gave permission to pass on things from you. I try to remember that passing on a gift doesn't mean I don't care for the person. Maybe just keep one or two things from that person that you truly love and not hoard everything.
Can't wait for the next installment!
Yes, House of Cribbage!¡!
I'm so glad youtube recommended this video and I'm glad I clicked on it... your accents are perfection... you and your mom are adorable together lol
I feel so at home watching your videos. Your accent really comes out when you talk with your mom. I am from south of the twin cities so not much MN accent but love listening to yours. I also don't know anyone else who called their entry way a "Foyer" except my family.
I just whated you to know that I love watching your videos, and look forward to them.
You can say thank you and then get rid of it. You r not responsible for other peoples feelings. Dont take up ur space and energy with something u dont like or need. With some of my kids creations and even my parents things i snap a pic and away it goes. Love you guys
The background noise was not so loud, and yes, I have heard of a Miss. Manners! Love your videos! 💓😊
What a great de-cluttering video. Your mom got rid of a whole lot and I am proud of her. The background noise wasn't that bad. Looking forward to the next video.
You saying your proud of her, means so so much to her. It comments like this and you being here, that's what keeps her motivated, she says thank you! We appreciate you so much!
Also, I'm so glad to hear that the background noise wasn't too bad, when I was editing I was like oh my gosh not only am I awful at angling a camera but I also have a guitar, drums, tv, talking in the background 😆 I just kept thinking "I really hope this isn't super distracting" this comment makes me feel a lot better.
Thank you so much for watching and being here with us, we're so happy you're here 🥰 xo
@@danniraearranged You are welcome, Mom. Thanks for letting us come along!!
Your Mom is beautiful. Tell her to stop hiding. 😊
fun to watch- and it was Dear Abby, Dear Ann Landers and yes....Dear Miss Manners
This was fun. I didn't mind the back'round noise at all. Progress is always good to get us in the here & now.
I can’t wait for the next video at your moms
your Mom is a doll! truly a sweetheart and definitely a good sport being invaded like this😃
Awww Laura your so sweet. This seriously made my mom's week, thank you 🥰. And for sure 100% agree, we're definitely getting into all the stuff and places around the house lol, she's definitely being a great sport, very proud of her. We appreciate you so much, thank you for watching and being here with us 🥰😘
Your mother is SO BEAUTIFUL!!!
Peggy, you just made my mom's year 😂 you're so sweet, what a wonderful comment /compliment. Thank you, we appreciate you so much 🥰🥰
@@danniraearranged The sheer love and joy the 2 of you share with each other in every video is so very heart-warming! This video in particular has her just radiant!! Love seeing you together!!!
Awww you and your mom are so cute! 💜💜💜
Guilty clutter is what I call gifts that I don't want. I either regift it, donate it, or use it while the gift giver is present (like a dish, scarf, or whatever), but I always thank the person genuinely! Holding onto something out of guilt isn't helpful. And if I held onto every guilty clutter item, my house would be hoarded.
Awww you guys make me smile. Love these videos.
You’re mama of so beautiful. And I didn’t mind the background noise, though I didn’t have headphones on .💜🤷🏻♀️
Another fun video!!😀
🥰🥰😘
Your mother is a cutie. Great video
Hi Danielle!
I love the little booties on your mom’s dining room chairs and table! So happy their feet won’t get cold! Lol
Yay! Your mom is on camera!
You have the worst luck with your camera!😳
“On the booaat” lol
Ian is so adorable!❤️
Oh I love it that you’re not always camera ready. You’re a real person.
I thought that picture of your mom was you!
I love those “ you Betcha” cards!
Your mom should have a cribbage tournament. Lol
We used to make flakes of ham with relish and mayonnaise on buns for wedding showers.I used to have the same iced tea maker! It worked great! But I donated it. Lol
Tell your mom I have a brand new stick blender and I use it all the time.
I can’t wait for the jewellery declutter!! Take care!! 💞💞💞💞
That was great! The noise was fine too. I love that your mom knows what all her stuff is and where it came from.
I thank them and then donate it and if they ever come over or even ask about it (they never do) i usually just say it broke or the kid lost it.
If theyre a parent or immediate family and were alone i usually let them know i appreciate the thought but im not looking for more stuff and i wouldnt feel right accepting something i cant use. So they should keep it or gift it to another person and if they really want to show us love to please join us for family dinner etc or gift us food.
😊
That is BRILLIANT, I love the idea of letting loved ones know that instead of gift, maybe joining us for family dinner, I love that! And same, no one ever asks me about the gifts they've given to me or my family, but I think the way you've gone about handling unwanted items from immediate family or parent is the best way to go about it! I sometimes wish I was more vocal on things that are gifted. Something im still working on, LOL xo
The cribbage boards...🤣
🤣🤣🤣
As we fill our houses with stuff we learn to buy gifts that are consumed and/or experiences. Tickets to a concert, season passes to somewhere.
Love watching you with your mam😍
I know I say this all of the time, but it is so true, my absolute favorite videos to make are the ones with my mom, it is so much fun working with her, she always has me 🤣🤣 Im so HAPPY you're here with us, thank you for watching Jill 🥰
@@danniraearranged just keep sending those crazy vidoes 👍🤣
I have a big family so people like to donate things to me all the time and I used to feel guilty if I got rid of it but then I realized that once it left there house they didn’t think twice about it.
So I say thank you and take the stuff to the thrift store for them, hey if it gets it out of there house and they feel good that’s the important thing
I agree 1000%! I used to feel guilty too, and sometimes I still do, sometimes I wish I was more vocal about the things that I accept, but I've done that many times before where if someone that I know doesn't want something but they think I'll like it, it makes them happy to get rid of it and then I just go ahead and donate it. I've done that before too. And honestly when people give me something or even gift me something, they usually never ask about it. Like for example, all the stuff that I gifted my mom, which I have no idea why I gave her all of that stuff LOL but I forgot about all of those items. I never thought to ask about it. Thank you so much for commenting, watching and being here, so HAPPY you're here with us 🥰
I love watching you and your Mom!
I had a yucky day and you brightened it, thanks!
Oh no Donna, I'm so sorry, I hope your okay, sending you lots of luv! I am glad however that I could brighten up your day a bit, that is everything, it's the reason I make videos. I appreciate you so much dear, sending a big virtual hug 🥰
My philosophy is that once you give a gift, it is no longer yours. The gift reciever is now the owner of that thing and are free to do with it what they like!
hi danni and danni's mom.
love this video.
cool you are with your mom, and she is in the video.
warm greetings from Denmark.
Awesome to see you helping mom, I'm in the process of redoing all my stuff too.
Hi Dani, what a great job you are doing helping your mum. But you need to get rid of some furniture, that bookshelf in the dining room needs to go. It will just collect more stuff.
Awww thank you so much Barbara I can't tell you enough how much that means to me. And yes I agree with you 100%, I try to limit the amount of surfaces in my home just because I know I'm going to create clutter if there's a surface, so I would like to ask her about the furniture, she may be willing to part with some of it? Thank you so much for watching and being here with us Barbara we appreciate you so much 🤣
I just loved this video. The background was normal life. I think your mom did well. I can't wait to see the rest. Her plants are beautiful. See you on the next one 🥰
Oh my gosh that makes me feel so much better that the background noise didn't bother you. When I was editing today's video I was like oh my gosh all I hear is drums, the guitar, talking, the TV 🤣 I was very nervous that, that was going to be a major distraction so this comment makes me feel a lot better. thank you! I absolutely love my mom's plants, I'm starting to accumulate more greenery and live plants in my house! That one really tall plant that goes all the way up to her ceiling is my absolute favorite it's so pretty. You're so sweet, always so happy to see you here with me dear thank you so much for watching 🥰😘
My mother is a very organized hoarder. I’m a minimalist. She always tells me I’d love to put a dumpster in her yard and start pitching. She’s so right! Lol
Introduce her to the Swedish Death Cleaning method- organizing and decluttering her home to reduce the burden of sifting through all her objects and trying to decide what's significant, truly important and noteworthy. With Swedish Death Cleaning, she will have already done that for her loved ones by only holding onto items determined to be essential and important. Who wants to leave a burden for someone else?
I can relate lol, my mom has so much packed away but most of it is tightly packed away, I always tell her it's organized clutter lol. There are times when she feels that way too, where she'd like to just dump it all but that's easier said then done. It's definitely a marathon, but the results are so worth it! Thank you so much for watching and being here, we're so happy you're here with us 🥰 xo
Mom is 91, has dementia, so we’ve started cleaning out little by little. Thanks for your replies.
I saw you hit 20k subscribers. Congratulations!
I honestly dont know how I got so lucky to have you and everyone here with me, but I am truly so blessed and so grateful for all of you! Making these videos and being able to connect with all of you, has been one of the most incredible journeys I've ever had! I appreciate ya so much dear! Thank you! And thank you for watching and being here with us! Hugs 🥰🥰
@@danniraearranged Everyone needs a little Danni in their life!
Your mum is so pretty x
Good job! Lots of clearing out!!!
Two minutes in and I can tell this is going to be great! 😂
I believe that if someone gives you a gift and they care about you they wouldn't want you to keep it forever if you don't like it.. and most of the time people don't even remember what they gave you like you didn't remember giving your mom that wax melt warmer ..so they aren't gonna be mad ..
Your mom is beautiful! Thanks mom for making an appearance ❤️ The two of you are quite funny!
You just made my mom's month, seriously so SWEET! Thank you! 🥰 And we appreciate you so much dear, we're so HAPPY you're here with us! Hugs 🥰
My mom has that grinder and still uses it for chicken salad. I would love to have it someday. They work great.
It’s was nice to see your mom. She is beautiful and has a wonderful personality. Tho I too would be camera shy. she is wonderful to get to know through your videos.
Awww Amanda, you are so sweet, this seriously made my mom's month. What a super sweet comment/compliment. Thank you 🥰 yes she's very camera shy, shes slowly starting to get more comfortable with the camera, but I most certainly don't push her, I do whatever she's comfortable with. Thank you so much for watching and being here with us we appreciate you so much 🥰😘
Wooow! It's so beautiful to see your mother making great progress. Congratulations! 👏👏👏
Yay! Hi Danni, perfect timing. It's almost 11pm in UK so will watch this and then bed. LOVE the videos with your mum. x
YAY! Im so glad you got to watch it tonight, I was really trying to get this out earlier but the video took longer than usual to upload to YT. Really hope you enjoy the video dear! Always so HAPPY to see you here with us, we appreciate ya so much 🥰
that box is from my parent's house in the 90s! we had all that!
Loved the video, I didn't mind the background noise. When I get something I don't like I keep it for a while then get rid of it! Love your shirt! Love Friends!
I’m with you, if you don’t like or want something; I’d get rid of it!
Awe shes soo cute, just shys away when the cameras on her for too long. Lol.
Good video,your mums seems for comfortable now decluttering.lol onion
I love the loser award. I need to make one for my family. We have the same sense of humor. Enjoy the day.
I love the cast iron stove. That’s so cute.
🤣🤣 i'm so glad im not the only one LOL we love each other, but also like to give each other crap here and there LMBO I thought that was so like my mom and her brother to make a sign like that and joke with each other like that. It makes things fun 🤣 Hope you have a great rest of your week dear 🥰😘
I LOVE that cast iron stove, Ive never seen anything like that before.
Your mother looks more like your sister not to say that you look older but your mother is very young looking and beautiful I love and it warms my heart to see that you’re helping your mom God bless you I love all your videos and don’t worry about the noise in the background life does happen love you my friend❤️
Your mother is SO pretty! She looks so good in that dress and with her hair like that. Reminds me of natasha richardson in the lindsay lohan version of the parent trap.
I keep the gift for a few months then get rid of it. The thing is; most of the gifts that people give that I DON'T like aren't things that reeeeally came from the heart- they are gifts where the person felt obligated to give me something for a specific occasion.
I found a simple solution for the gift problem that works fine for me. I told my family and friends clearly that I am living a minimalist life and that I am not willing to keep stuff that I don't need. I told them that if they gift me things i did not ask for and I don't need, I am going to donate them immediately.
So they all know exactly what to expect.
It is midnight here in Germany, perfect time to watch your video, drink my last coffee for the day and go to bed 😊
Love your videos so much ❤
Oh my gosh you drink coffee before bed too, I do that from time to time. I LOVE my coffee! I swear my blood type is coffee 🤣 I actually really wanted to get this video out sooner, however it took a hot minute to upload to YT, which happens more frequently than I would like it to, but Im so glad you were able to watch tonight! Hope you liked it! Thanks for watching and being here with us 🥰
Hi Danni!
What about convincing your mom to get rid of the shelf in the corner? The stuff in it can be put somewhere else (seasonal in it´s box) and the room would be much more airy. The small table? to the left of the shelf could go to.
I have the exact electric knife and still use it occasionally! 😂
Monkey Meat is what my mother-in-law called the bologna spread. LOL
Your mom is gorgeous! She should be on camera more often. You did a great job! I saw some Princess House crystal that I still have. Baby Steps!
You seriously just made my mom's year! You are so dang sweet! Thank you 🥰 Im hoping one day she'll feel a little bit more comfortable to be on camera more, maybe one day, she's very camera shy, so is my husband lol. My mom has so much Crystal, I think that's one item she'd never part with, like you stated so perfectly "baby steps' lol thank you so much for watching and being here, we're so happy you're here with us 🥰 xo
Loved this video, with all the noise. Loved the meat grinder. My mother would grind up roast beef to make a sandwich spread. The large yellow mixing bowel was used for cookies. Thank-you for all the memories. I’m 72 and love thinking of my mother. Again thank-you!
Nice! I bet she'll downsize a ton of dishes if she sees them all together.
Also, those vintage Pyrex primary bowls on the hutch are worth $$$$$$$
I love the interaction with you and your mom. lol Don't you love going through mom's old stuff? That said, I volunteer to be donated mom's candles 🕯, ☺️🥰. I burn candles daily, so I do go thru a lot. Anyways love you Danni 😍.
The pop up list was GOLD! I was laughing so hard. I adore the real life ness of your long interupted fun chatty videos. It really feels like hanging with friends and family. Your mom is awesome. She is a star. Keep them coming you are doing so awesome! Your video and presentation skills are growing but you are not losing your im a real human magic. 🥰
So brave of your Mom to open her home! You two have special relationship, BTW, she's a hoot! TFS!!
Mom looks very nice 😊
