Here are 9 tips to help you get your home decluttered faster! Then come use this video as a timer and declutter with me: th-cam.com/video/DZVdAw-cAWI/w-d-xo.html
All great suggestions! I am a reformed hoarder. I used to have a packed house and five storage units. It took a catastrophic illness and a natural disaster to shift my mindset. Now I love being minimal. I look for things daily to declutter, I find so much joy in neat, clean, fresh spaces.
These are more personal questions so I hope you don’t mind them. How have you lost so much weight? And do you use a treatment on your eye lashes to get them to curl ? I love your videos. If you watch Cas from clutterbug you know about the different clutterbug styles and you seem to be a cricket like me. Most of the other you tube organizers I watch are ladybugs and butterflies so I’m so happy to watch some one who organizes more like me. You totally get me lol. Keep making videos! I love how you talk through how you decide what to keep. And your thought process. I like how you talk about cleaning and organizing as you go also. That’s a cricket thing! This is how I work too or I don’t feel like the jobs done.
Thank you! I was wondering if I was a cricket. I guess I’m not sure! Haha. I think I’ve taken her test a few times and sometimes I get cricket and sometimes I get ladybug. As for the weight loss, my doctor put me on Wegovy (similar to Ozempic) for pre-diabetes and luckily it also helps you lose weight! I have been blessed with dark eyelashes. I do put on mascara nowadays, but nothing else. I do use just a lash curler just to give them a little lift. Thanks for commenting and supporting my channel! 😊
Love the way you think! I clean & declutter this way. I do NOT enjoy housework so I add a small area at a time to the daily chores. This way a big job gets done, though it is slower.
Haha I just used a single sock as a dusting mitt today! Having something to collect unwanted clothing in or near your closet is a great tip. I'm in the habit of using a trash bag because all of our boxes tend to collect other types of donations like household goods.
I love the Container Concept! My problem is less deciding what to give away, and more trying to figure out what to do with it: antiques, rare or expensive items; ie: not thrift shop things.
I’ve been trying something new- every time I open a cabinet or drawer I do a very quick scan and ask “Is there anything I can get rid of out of here?” For less used drawers ( like the tiny ones in my living room end tables) I have merely completely emptied them so I don’t have to remember what’s in there. Always good info on your videos. Thanks! ❤
I had cupboards and closets that looked neat from the outside but disaster inside. I happened upon your channel and was encouraged to just do one at a time. I think it was your linen closet video! That worked for me.
Hello Ali, i just found your page and i love it. you have energised me. I also suffer from depression and you have put new life in me. Your ideas are great. I love having a tidy house (my husband is a hoarder) and I now have a new outlook on life. I live in England and you, as an american, have different items you can buy that we do not have, so i am trying to buy the nearest to that which you show. I look forward to your next video
Today my husband and I took the very FIRST step towards decluttering our basement. Mind you the goal is AN EMPTY BASEMENT, since it's water infested from when the rain fills up the underground water levels. There's a LONG way to go.
@@reallifewithali Thank you. We're making baby steps. Making room for a place for different types of things. Like we have paper and pencils in many places in the house.
Decluttering without cleaning? It seems that it would go hand in hand. I have a shed that has become a dump spot for years. Besides decluttering, it needs to be cleaned so everything is organized.😊
I saw a video where someone helped a friend to declutter and they *didn't* wipe the dusty space and items, just shoved everything back in it. Drove me crazy 😅

Wow! That sounds like a huge change in your life. I’m sure it was really hard to do. Way to go!

Hello from a fan of Midwest Magic Cleaning channel. Now also a fan of yours. Great tips to help me on my decluttering journey. Thanks.
Awesome! Thank you!
Great tips Ali. I love the declutter daily tip, I always try to get rid of something even if it’s an empty toilet paper roll. ❤❤
Those toilet paper rolls can add up! 😆

Haha! Good idea with the trash bag!

My problem is less deciding what to give away, and more trying to figure out what to do with it: antiques, rare or expensive items; ie: not thrift shop things.
Yeah that can be hard!
Small steps! Works for me. Sometimes I declutter a drawer, then walk by it for the next few days & peek in bc it gives me a boost.
I love looking back at decluttered spaces, too. It feels so good!

How exciting! I’m excited for you. Good luck!
@@reallifewithali Thank you. We're making baby steps. Making room for a place for different types of things. Like we have paper and pencils in many places in the house.
My donate box is in my car now. When I want something gone, it is out of my house now! Lol
That’s even better!
Decluttering without cleaning? It seems that it would go hand in hand. I have a shed that has become a dump spot for years. Besides decluttering, it needs to be cleaned so everything is organized.😊
Well, yes, but after decluttering is done you can move on to cleaning and organizing!
I saw a video where someone helped a friend to declutter and they *didn't* wipe the dusty space and items, just shoved everything back in it. Drove me crazy 😅
@@EmOrganizer Haha. Sometimes that’s what I do, but I know I’ll go back to it and clean it. 😬
Which video is about clutter hotspots? I can't tell from the titles listed.
Here it is! What are HOTSPOTS and How to Keep Them Clean!

I like 5o empty the room and decide what to get rid of to have less
Good idea!
You are kind girl 😊 l am a web dev but l do not know if you need a web dev to work with you remotely
No, but thank you.
❤
Thanks!
Also if I buy something I get ready to get rid of something . It's much h easier to have a clean house by keeping it picked up.
So true!

THE STRUGGLE IS REALLLL😩😩😩😩😩
