The orchid is fine. They go through cycles of blooming, they don't bloom all the time.
I was "dying" when she said trash it. 😢
Same 😄
I was going to say this. It looked perfectly green and healthy! RIP orchid lol
Yup, I kept the bottom bit with just the leaves and was surprised a year later, it was huge
It will bloom again ❤. What they love is the water after it cools from when you boil eggs. Sense you are trendy you can buy these clay balls also they sell at orchid flower shops & put it in a see through pot or vase. It could go in your kitchen window. The way I keep plants beside cactuses alive is unfinished water bottles people leave around lol. I stick butterfly 🦋 pins on them while they are not in bloom phase & they look like a flower from far away still :). Good declutter you got rid of alot :). Thanks for sharing 💕
Hi Carla
The orchid is not dead - as long as the leaves are green it's still alive and will bloom again. It takes a while - but you will be rewarded with even more of the beautiful flowers. I've had orchids for more than ten years...
And I put them into larger glass jars, it is beautiful to see the roots inside and new shoots poking out of the jars.
That’s what I was going to say. Poor orchid!
For pillows linens blankets or towels, etc that are in used condition - I find it’s better to donate to pet shelters instead! They use them in the pet beds and cages and really need the donations. Xo
Even dust rags
Also rags for the gym to sanitize before & after then chunk it :)
I actually got up at ~minute 3 and started decluttering.
I didn't have the mental capacity for anything in the last 3 months, so now as things have settled again, your video got me moving.
Decluttering does give me a peace of mind and I love taking inventory of my stuff (I'm the woman who rotates the plates from the bottom of the pile to the top for even usage 😅).
Today I decluttered some clothes and unraveled some paper piles. One day I'll recieve everything digitally in this paper loving country of Germany and there will be no more freaking folders of paper (except the diplomas, certifications...)
I also rotate the dishes so they get even usage. I had never heard of anyone else doing that! Amazing!
I just want to say thanks again 'bestie'. When the overhelm is bad I just put your videos on repeat, and then clean and declutter with you and Samson 😅 You da best
You're the best!
😢 the orchid was totally fine. My heart broke a little bit. Orchids are one of my favourite plants.
Like everyone else has said the orchid isn’t dead, it’s just in a different part of its life cycle. I’m in the process of painting different rooms in my house now that our youngest has moved into her own apartment after graduating from her Masters program & getting a new job. I was able to get rid of A LOT of stuff by giving it to my daughter! Now it’s reusing what we have & redecorating after the painting.
That orchid is not dead at all. If you still have it, buy another one and put them together 🥰
Lol I was folding laundry listening to this (to much laundry) and decided I could get rid of some of it. Boom 💥25 items happened fast and furiously! Thanks for the challenge! You rock! ❤💃❤️
Love it!!!!
I like your idea!!! Simple! Hunt for stuff. After hours of decision making trying to declutter my studio for the second day i am so tired and ready to try a new approach tomorrow! Thank you!
Ahhh pausing to come say that orchid isn't dead! She's just resting and will re-bloom eventually if cared for
Samson’s face during your declutterings always makes me smile.
I love that you did all this in one day. Great motivation to get clutter up and out!
The orchid wasn't dead! 😮 I will do this challenge for sure. How do you not feel guilty donating and or trashing gifts? I am staring at about 5 gifts that i dont use and wont miss just get guilty every time I go to donate them 🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
The irony is, probably everyone is thinking like that. I don't know what video it was but the Minimal Mom talked about this a lot. First of all, if the things just lay around and cause you so much trouble (because everytime you see them you dislike them more and more bc you feel like you can't let go), that's a good reason to let go. The items themselves won't be mad at you. Other than that, if your friends ask you later about the present (which has never ever happened to me), might just be honest that it didn't work for you.
Again I don't remember a lot so probably refer to the Minimal Mom for better advice but one thing I do remember is that you should "set boundaries", ie make your preferences clear to friends and family if you really want less stuff. Also even if you like your stuff, some people just gift you whatever bc THEY TOO don't know what to give you (for example I had to limit the amount of body lotion I get gifted, it seems to be a preferred gift for young women but I don't ever use it and had like 5 bottles sitting around, big ones too of course). So if you are clear about what you actually want and need, it's beneficial to both sides.
I always dread gift shopping bc in the end it's just for the short moment of unwrapping and praying they like whatever trash I found. Sure, some people don't learn and will insist on buying you stuff but most will be glad that they know what exactly to get you. Also might rethink physical gifts in general, if you don't need them you can ask for activities etc.
Donating a gift can feel a bit like a 'betrayal' almost. But if you're the kind of person who worries about this, that means you care about people. Which is what matters, not whether you're holding onto a bracelet you're never going to wear. One thing I keep for sentimental sake are postcards, they don't take too much space. With other things, I wouldn't feel too guilty.
Ooo the orchid didn't die ❤ Carla's videos are the cherry on the cake 😊
Ooooohh poor doggie. He would of luv'd a car ride. The knife, duck tape should of gone over the blade, not safe wrapped in towel. Someone will mis-handle the towel and Ooops. I really enjoyed this video. Simple but effective ideas, thanks for thinking of it and sharing.
One thing I've been doing lately is keeping the extra totebags in my donation area and filling them as I declutter. Easy to grab it when it's full and donate it.
This is such a cool idea, Carla. I am a naturally organised person, so I declutter regularly, but this is such an easy way for anyone to make a start and not feel overwhelmed. Thank you for sharing. :)
I love your declutters. It would be nice to have an apartment tour & have a comparison of what it used to look like so we can see the progress. Idk just an idea. Great video! ❤
Great idea!
I love a declutter, but I have nothing to get rid of so really enjoy watching other people’s 😄
Well done Carla, a mini declutter is a great way to avoid a massive one 🙌…I don’t know how stuff finds its way into my place either…but it does. ❤
I’ve just done a quick whip around my place…and bingo…much to recycle, bin and donate..⭐️⭐️⭐️
When in doubt, throw it out!😊 Holes can come from washer or dryer.
Your hair looks so beautiful here Carla! Very glamorous especially paired with the hoop earrings! ❤️
I managed to talk my husband into ordering up a larger trash can. Generally we don't have that much house trash per say but it seems like we are backed up with garage stuff.. or packaging that takes forever to work into a small can. In just the last month we got rid of a ton of old carpeting and riff raff around the garage. Each week I get so excited for an empty trash can so we can fill up more stuff. You know you're getting older when getting a larger trash bin is cause for celebration :)
I paused this video to grab some things. I love challenges! It’s good that you go thru your reasoning when doing a decluttering video. Very helpful! Oh and I noticed a lot of orchid people in the comments! I grew orchids as a hobby a few years ago. They are definitely more needy than your average houseplant! Big hug to Samson!
Clearing out clutter in your home is good for your mental health it's a huge relief to come home from work and not have the burden of cleaning clutter.
The orchid is alive she just stopped blooming 😢😢🌱🌱
I think the orchid might be savable, cut the stems down, new pot and soil, then if it doesn't perk up, let it go.
Did you donate the knife or trash it? I think it could be donated.
That one bag, brown & blue, is a nice bag. I know you said you have another one but 2 nice bags isn't a bad thing!
Did this while the video was playing.
I'm in the middle of packing for a cross-country move in the near future. Without leaving my desk I threw away 10 things. One tour through the kitchen and the downstairs netted more than 15 other items. There was a couple cheat items though: someone gave my son 'presents' for me, some random stuff I don't need. This video was the little push I needed to toss those.
It amazes me how there is always something else that needs to go. I have a sense when I unpack on the other end I'm going to end up tossing/donating a bunch of stuff. Makes me wonder just how much stuff we really need in life.
Oh my gosh that window of yours it’s so beautiful because the top of the tree
I would feel like I’m in a treehouse, I would feel amazing there is just nature all around. I just absolutely love it.
I am so glad TH-cam recommended your channel! You are so relatable - I am currently working my way through watching all of your videos .. sending love & light from the UK
I hope the pillow goes to an animal shelter! They are always looking for used pillows, blankets, etc. since it's too expensive for them to purchase. Regardless, loved this declutter, needed this inspiration today!
Samson wanted to to go for the ride, Carla, and you didn’t take him. 😩 Poor little beastie! 😂 That’s such a great and fairly easy challenge that I’ll def give it a try this week. And yes, your hair was bang on perfect! 😀
In the process of finishing my personal files organization/declutter. My home is very organized but I’ve realized the paper filing is my Achilles heel. I have two boxes left to finish and I’ve been staring at them for months. Always impressed with how easily you self motivate and just get it done Carla🙂
Wow, you have a management company now?! I remember your channel when it was a few thousand subs. Congratulations on your big growth in a relatively short time.👏🏾🎉
I’m moving abroad and I have lived in my apartment since 1998. I have so much stuff to go through, but it must be done. For me it has to be a complete purge, I’m not putting anything in storage when I leave. This past week I do what I call Sip & Purge, in the evening, wine and filling up garbage bags and donation bags. Whatever’s left I will sell, the big items like furniture and appliances. I will definitely do this challenge. You can do it guys! ❤. Also, have you done a digital declutter yet?
That felt good! I don't think I have that many items personally to get rid of at this time, (I've whittled down an awful lot) and I don't get to choose what my husband and son keep, but I'm definitely going to take the challenge and see how much I can get rid of. I like putting not only a time limit on it but also a number of items as your goal. I think that's helpful.
I love when I see things from Brazil in international videos, you have a book from a Brazilian author on the table.
Sometimes simple is best! Arrived home yesterday and somehow my s.o. managed to spread stuff brought home from his office EVERYWHERE. So i will declutter my stuff to be able to breath again😂Could not bring myself to just trash electronics,would feel like a criminal (here in Germany😀). Thank you so much for the motivation, Carla!
Just watched this while I was working on a project that is almost done, it’s 9:30 at night. Took a 10 min break and just pulled out 10 items in my closet, that I had already partly decluttered last month.
Liked you idea!!
Here in the uk we have to separate our broken electrical goods for recycling as they are broken down. The clothes that are ripped can still be recycled as it goes to a shredder where it is woven into new materials such as wool. Even shoes can be broken down and melted into new materials. The charity shops get money per tonnage of waste that they can’t use. It’s so different from country to country xx
I’ve taken your challenge and ended up donating 30 items and threw away about 20 items 😊 I feel refreshed 😁
Hi Carla! Definitely going to do the 25 item challenge this week. It’s been a while since I’ve gone through the house and I’m itching for that “feel good” feeling you get when your place is a bit tidier. ❤
You did amazing! This is so motivating. Getting stuff out of the house to the donation centre is my biggest hurdle, I don’t drive anymore and have to rely on others for this. I have bags and boxes of stuff ready to go.
So true that some items can blind you from making a decision to keep or discard. Love that picture of the ocean and cliffs. When will you be hanging this up?
I love these little decluttering videos. Sometimes the big stuff is so overwhelming. But these little exercises are so great. And nothing like really looking at your stuff to say oh yeah that really is worn out why do I still have it. So thank you great video
The orchid was very healthy.
I did this and I had two pairs of slacks with tags I have never worn because the cut wasn’t the right look for me. I was able to exchange them and came got 3 things I really needed. Two pair of shorts & cool top. I opted for a good quality with these items since I loved them all so much. ❤😊
The orchid!! :( It was just about to give buds!!
I’ll take the challenge! This past week I did a declutter, had a ton of recycling. It gets picked up once a week in my area… clothes are still my enemy, but I’m thinking more & more of items in there that I won’t wear again, even if I lose weight. Looking forward to the count!
Great challenge Carla 💪🏼 I’m currently in a period where I can’t get things done 😵💫 But seeing your progress always makes me feel a little better ❤
i did it 2 days ago..donated 14 items...felt so good. today i cleaned a cupboard and threw away items that were broken or trash. incentive!!
No orchid is live
Love your idea📝
I love this challenge and I’ll definitely do it this week!!
Fantastic video, Carla! Love this challenge!
Carla is right; the Factor meal’s really do taste good. Edit to say yes but my version will be trash items. And yes the worst is starting; once I’m going I’m always asking myself why it’s so hard to start
Love declutters!
Hi Carla, great idea. Wonderful video!!!
Plus a cardboard box and paper bag? Go girl!❤
You are absolutely phenomenal!
That was fun!! I am going to try this next week.
Nooo the orchid seemed so healthy
Just checking on you. Hope you are well. ❤🙏🏽
Very inspiring, thanks!
Decluttering can be chronic. I just donated three target bags and a laundry bast worth of stuff to VVA. They come to your home and pick it up. the donations go straight to our war veterans which feels good to help them. It’s two days later and I have two more target bags filled and two items to give away. I can attest to how good it feels to get rid of things that you are no longer using.
I’m going to do the challenge! 💪🏻 Thanks for the motivation!
Loved this video! Thanks for sharing. 😊
I think this will be a good way for me to declutter! Good job! X
So motivating to declure more of the junks in my home
Definitely going to do this
I trying decluttering almost finished spring cleaning! Thanks so much for the helpful tips! Carla
This is fantastic! I try to do some version of this every couple of weeks - it’s shocking how quickly the crap accumulates!
I try for the “hell yeah” method. If it’s not a hell yeah, out it goes.
Thankyou Carla! Love your videos I'm doing this right away! ❤
You got this!💗
I am taking up the challenge this week. Can't wait to clean out my stuff!
Ooooo your hair looks prettttyyy!!!
I LOVE your pink dress!!!!!!!💞💞💞
Yes I will be doing a declutter.
Lovely! Helps with inspiration to declutter a room so I can use the space to do things I actually want to do.
I love this challenge!! I'm up for it- and will definitely do this in the next several days. Thank you for the motivation- I love your videos!!😊
That was so good!
Samson's "hey mum, don't go without me" bark was cute xxx
I did something like this this weekend. It’s helpful because I think less about the item and more about reaching the goal of number of items I want to get rid of
Love this im going to give this a try for sure
Love your hair .
I've been doing this even more with our move coming up! Very lucky we have scrap metal recycling nearby for sharp stuff.
Great idea. Going to start today.
I almost cried when you tossed that orchid. It was NOT dead. Orchids "cycle" so they dont blossom all the time. It actually had new buds on it showing it was alive...LOL
So sad
Ok, doing the O.T.D. Challenge tomorrow. Writing it in my planner now. Thanks!
Good morning Carla. You are giving out some good tips on what to keep and throw away when you declutter.
thank you❤️
Nothing to do with this video, just want to say, I hope you are doing well. It’s been a while. Take care, God Bless.
New videos coming soon💗💗💗
The USB meditation stick could go in electronic trash if you are able to separate
Same w the kettle lol
I keep a box for electronic garbage which includes bulbs, batteries and old electronics, then bring it to a local eco station every so often
I had been meaning to search for Out of the Closet, but finally did after watching this video. There's one in my area! Yay!
Wow well done! This was an excellent speed round of decluttering ❤
Thanks Jenn! Glad you got some thing out of the video!!❤️
I'm definitely gonna do it! just can't tonight. I just got home from doing laundry and going to the grocery store, and I'm worn out and I still need to put all the clean laundry away. Oh, and I love a tote bag too, you did good job decluttering those! So tomorrow, after work 🙄. My challenge right now is to not get right into bed now at 7:45pm....😊 Thanks for the motivation and the challenge! 🌷
Hey Carla, great motivational video. Today I have managed to get rid of the old trampoline and garden waste, cut the grass do a load of washing and make some plans for the week ahead. This time of year is definitely high energy time for me I just wish the bloody sciatica I’ve had since November would do one and jog on. Tomorrow I will bag up 25 items and take to donate on my way to trim a friends hair. Peace and love to you gorgeous and your hair looks fab too many blessings for the week ahead ☮️💜
Thought LA had a place to donate clothes that they could turn the material into new items?
You are an inspiration for me.
💙🙏🏻🕊❤️🕉
I am definitely going to do this challenge!!❤❤
Been needing motivation to declutter will definitely be doing this challenge 💖
woohoo!!❤️
Love this challenge Carla ❤😊 it’s ok to get rid of plants 🪴 😂
@@TheCarlaProject not When they are not dead.
Yes thank you for sharing ❤
Thanks for watching!
It’s hard to say no to those free things Carla. But I always think will this replace something and where will it live in my home. Sometimes it puts people off when I say no to free things but i don’t care. Quick and easy Decluttering is my jam!
Great job !
