    My favorite souvenir is food. I feel it’s a win-win because the person who loves getting things gets to get me something and I loveto try new foods from different places.

    Idk how many is the boundary, but 28 mugs is definitely too many for one person! And I'd definitely say make sure you don't buy him any more mugs.
    Also worth noting that him HAVING mugs doesn't mean they all have to be easy access in the kitchen cupboard. Could pick out his most used x number of mugs and have them in the cupboard, and the rest in a box of "spare mugs" in a closet or something out of the way.

    I’m so grateful I found your channel I’ve NEVER been able to declutter my room because I always get VERY overwhelmed and demotivated but I just feel like you get it your vibe is genuine, I don’t know why but your videos are just so motivating I’ve for the first time been able to completely blitz my room within a few hours filling two big bags of just crap I was emotionally tied to without feeling a thing and I’ve had all your videos playing in the background and every time I started feeling overwhelmed I’d just hear your videos and I’d be like ‘no come on it’s easy don’t over think’. I’ve still got ‘little bits’ to finish tomorrow but the biggest problems in my bedroom are finally gone 😩 I really don’t think I would of been able to do that without your videos pushing me along the way xx

    I despise kitchen cabinets. I need to declutter when my kids go on spring break. I did organize all my seasonings/herbs last week. I put them in clear bins to separate them according to my cooking use. Mugs i have to get throw out. I bought Halloween kind but the paint fell off and the other i didnt know the handles had holes in it. My fiance said mold can get stuck inside. My fiance has started to declutter to. Even my mom started decluttering. They were remodeling so her closet was filled with tools. Yesterday she said she finally had a closet back lol. I thank you for the improvements made in our homes. 🤍

    We are non coffee drinkers but have many mugs. We could probably yeet one or two but I use mugs for hot chocolate in winter, soup, ice cream because a mug is smaller than a bowl eat less. I have a mug for rinsing when I brush my teeth. Mugs I've been gifted hold pens and pencils and makeup brushes.

    Mugs seem to be one of the biggest concerns when decluttering a kitchen.😂 My adult son collects mugs and they are starting to take over. As he will be out on his own in the next year or two I’ve been boxing up some things for him to take with him. Included will be the mugs I don’t see him using often. He also has the biggest tea collection I think I’ve ever seen.😩

    My mom once gifted an electronic notepad that my dad had not used ever and he had it for more than a year. It triggered his hoarding, he felt betrayed and he remided it to her for years because he didn't trust her anymore. He stills remembers it but only a couple times a year. If your partner is a hoarder, the worst thing you can do is decluter without them.
