We definitely need a Becky’s new closet _AFTER_ video some day!
Was just thinking the same thing!
Great idea.
She is packing everything up and moving
Yes, please!!! A video/ tour of her new space!!!
That wardrobe is like Mary Poppins bag, the stuff coming out of it is never ending
The only reason she could ruthlessly easily get rid of those shoes is because that was her second pass She realized she didn't really need them all or want them. If that was the first time that you had declutted her shoes it would have been a lot more difficult. She is getting good decluttering muscles She's the 🏆 champ.
This!
I love your show. I am in the middle of helping my sister declutter her home. It is not large, a little over 1000 sq ft, but packed to the gills! You give me hope that eventually her home will be neat and tidy. It has taken a bit over a year to do her living room and kitchen. But then we are also washing the walls in every room. She is a stubborn Taurus that makes me leave if I am going too quickly to suit her😂. She is getting better as time passes. She is coming out of a depression after her husband died 2 years ago. She is now actually telling me "I don't need that" or "where did THAT come from? Throw it out". I am so proud of her progress, physically and emotionally!😊 I wish you could come to Michigan and help us😅
Keep supporting your sister. You are doing a great job. Your sister needs support after the loss of her husband. That is such a huge loss. Doing sister things is great! Bless you both! You are helping her to move on…
That is very inspiring!! I wish I was out there helping too!!❤❤❤
I'm so impressed with you, supportive sister!
I'm partially doing my major declutter so my sister WON'T have to help me!!! It's a strong motivator! I love her. She loves me. But we DO NOT MESH.
I'm in Michigan and am starting my own organizing biz!! I'm so inspired by channels like these.
It’s so hard when you’ve spent a lifetime collecting things you love, then you find you’re older and they no longer fit or are practical, so you’ve got to let them go. It’s hard.
It is. Honestly, the stuff you get rid of, you don't even remember in a few days. Of course, the really meaningful items should be kept. And after decluttering for a while you become much wiser about what the really meaningful stuff is.
My magic question now (forget where I heard it but it is GOLDEN!):
DOES THIS BELONG IN MY FUTURE?
I'm finally able to LET IT GOOOOOOO!!!
My favorite wall clock just died. It feels like a portent of my upcoming move. I'm taking a photo of it because I have a sentimental attachment to it, shopping in a vintage mall with my dad who is not long for this world, so with a photo that I can look at, I will donate it with a note it needs a new mechanism, and hopefully someone else will enjoy it. I don't have the time or wherewithal to do it myself. I'm looking at this as a sign from my angels to be ready and willing to step into my future!!!
I understand that, but if something isn't a part of your daily life, then checking in (inventory) should be done seasonally.
She has done a great job decluttering. When she gets to new apartment she can always see what fits and downsize more.
Holy moly. Shocked at how much Becky got rid of! Impressive!
Carla you truly give everyone more than an organized home! You give them skills to continue this in their life. You give them compassion. You give no judgement only understanding and help. You give them strength and friendship. Thanks for all you do and sharing your story and so many other story.🥰
Thank you so much!! ☺️
For the clothes it would be better to do another passage when she is in her new home and try all of them, to see if it still fits her style. Seeing this video made me realise i have not worn any skirt in more than five years...good job Carla
She did an amazing job with decluttering her shoes and clothes in her closet. You're an amazing friend to help her out Karla.
See?Becky already build some serious decluttering muscles. She is already ultra marathon level right now!!!
Oh, Carla! How I wish you were here to help me downsize and declutter prior to my move to a senior building. I have my application in and hope my name reaches the top of the list in the next few months. I am starting to pack already so I won’t have so much to do at the last minute. I worry that I will have too much stuff. The apartment will be quite a downsize for me. I’ll just have to pretend you are here to guide me! 😊💕❤️
Wishing you the best in your downsizing and move.
I moved countries many years ago and was posting boxes to a friend who held them until I got there. My method was , if there was a fire in my house and I had 5 mins to grab what I think is important. It worked as you think what papers do I need to keep safe, photos, art work, after that it is possessions that can be replaced easily.
Have you also looked at the swedish death clean youtubes, they ask the question "Do my children want this/ need this or deal with this stuff when I am gone." Anyway good luck.
U can do it! Remember how much easier your life will be in the new home with less stuff
Good luck with the move! Great that you are starting before, so you don’t feel overwhelmed.
You can do it!! Be super honest with yourself about what you actually use and you’ll do great❤
You're so lucky to have such a dear lifelong friend. 💕
It’s good like Becky is doing: taking a new look at all her clothes and stored items. We forget about some things. We say: why do I have so many towels, so many sheets, so many shoes, etc. I certainly did that recently with my clothes drawers. I got rid of 50% in my drawers, maybe more, almost all my (unworn) socks. That that is thanks to Carla’s influence!!
Sometimes we store things in big containers hidden away as a way to get rid of them without actually tossing them….
Thank you Carla!! Your decluttering with friends series and your decluttering with your sister series has really been an eye-opener for me and bit by bit I’m doing a little corner here and a little corner there and getting rid of stuff.
Oooh, I felt that about putting things away in containers hidden away as a way to get rid of them without letting them go! I need to keep that in mind as I’m cleaning out.
Would love to see how everything looks in her new place once she unpacks and organizes 😊
Animals shelter could always use sheets, blankets, comforters, towels you don’t need♥️
That’s where I took mine to donate and they were so grateful! 🐶
She really powered through! Great job 😊
The closet was like Gulliver"s Travels at the end there. It was never ending how many things hung in that far corner.
True 😂
Becky is doing great. I love it that her first go to answer is always keep it and then you show it to her and it’s donate, donate, donate. The first instinct is to keep everything but then she stops and thinks about it, she did great.
Ι like that you are no judgemental yet very honest and helpful with the ones decluttering their spaces. I also love the music choices.
Before I move, I donate my clothes and shred my papers. Then when I move into my new home, I relook through my clothes and donate more. Plus I shred more papers. I downsized with a lot of my belongings. My husband on the other hand is a hoarder. He refuses to donate any of his stuff and does not shred any of his papers.
Great job Becky!!! Carla you are a great friend to Becky and a great support! I was shocked to see how much Becky donated!!!
I wish i had a friendship like this. You guys seem so loving and friendly
I LOVE the music you use!!! So much better than the generic pop stuff on so many other channels. Thank you!
This was a great video on how to declutter quickly. She didn’t tell you a story about every item and she was quick to decide. Very motivating video! Great job!
Great job!! It is easier the get rid of stuff when moving. I've moved every seven to ten years during my 50 year marriage and I think that's why I don't have as much stuff as many older people.
Amazing job ladies! I loved when Becky said let's tackle the hanging items before we stop.
Right!?! She got INTO it!!!
WOW! She did a terrific job! I could never make decisions as fast as she did! Well done!
She is still in for a shock. you have helped her realize that she needs to downsize to get to that goal of an incredible space. consider only using one closet as that is all Becky will have. Its very difficult but her new space is the reward.
Sorry I missed why she was moving and in shock 😬
It took years of decluttering but im proud that all of my life belongings fit in my one small bedroom 😊 well done to you Becky as well! ❤ cant wait to see the new apartment!
Good Lord, that was incredible. You'll both need spa weekends and and rest days to get over this. Congratulations to your friend for her superhuman effort!
OMG Becky is going to be a new woman! I don’t know how she didn’t roll up in a ball to escape during all that. And doing the mementos in the middle. I would have flat lined. Nice job!!!
I am so impressed with her! Especially the sentimental stuff!
I like how you intersperse the talking with music and of laughter!
I helped my friend declutter last year. She has suggested round two. We’re starting in June.
I was so impressed by how much is going out. That will certainly make the move easier.
Good job, Becky. Try on all those clothes once you are unpacking in your new place. Maybe more would go. You can have the sentimental VCR tapes digitized.
Moving is an excellent time to declutter! Becky did great!
I love yours and Beck's friendship, the laughter and giggles have me in fits . thank her for sharing this massive declutter. X
Glad you enjoyed it😄💖
Carla, you have made such a difference in your friend's and family's lives! Becky is truly headed for a new life with this move. Your experience, skill, kindness, and humor make good memories with this difficult de-clutter !
She’s going to feel so light. Declutterring is very therapeutic, especially for very sentimental people.
I’m having to suddenly move apartments and I’m doing this now! Even though it’s very stressful, I’m almost glad I’ve been forced to move. I honestly think it’s the only reason I’ve managed to declutter.
Carla, Becky can send the VHS’ in and have them transferred onto DVD’s because VHS’ can disintegrate. On DVD they are easier to store and last forever. We did this with our 33 year old daughters VHS’ 34 to be exact, we did ours through Costco, which used YES VIDEO. They gave 2 cds for each VHS. We have a copy to our daughter and we have a copy. The VHS’ took up a 66 quart tub and the 2 copies of DVD’s fit in 1 11”x11” sea grass basket. Fits in my office closet perfect. Hidden, pretty, and still have those memories.
Becky, you and Carla make a great team. Your new place will have a place for everything.
These are some of my favorite videos Carla❤️
Oh, that is so cool! I’ll pass on to Becky!!
It’s fun to see how the first instinct is “I need ALL of that box/bin/shelf”…. Then when you break it down item by item all of a sudden 30% of it can GO. The actual pure instinct of ….”I need all my stuff” is the obvious first reaction…and you NEED the individual item touch (plus some declutter mindset momentum) to actually see clearly and make progress happen.
Becky is peeling off the layers of her old life, she is embracing the future. It seems she purged her clothes form high school. The sound in the video was very soft since there was so much damping effect from the fabric, nice. I admire how she was merciless with some knick knacks, newspaper articles. I had to go through some of my mom's scrap papers and recipe clippings. Myself I have a hard time going through my own but I try. A little bit at a time is easier for me. I got rid of some of my friends letters that had lost their meaning, they didn't evoke the same feelings, I had grown up. Way to go Becky! And Carla, your positive attitude is contagious, loved the music, good vibes.
I am so excited to see your new light, airy, clean gorgeous home Ms B! You did a fantastic job 🎉🎉🎉
This came at the PERFECT time. I’m about to move house and am stuff decluttering things tied to serious emotional memories. It’s been hard getting through it. I’m taking a break from it after it mentally exhausting me and your video pops up! Thank you!
Doing something like this is good for us all. Sometimes we have clothes in our closet that we keep out of sentimental feelings. Maybe we wanted it at one time. When we are doing something like this, we can really pair down the unneeded items from those we really love. You two did a wonderful job.
Flat sheets make great curtains and they match your bed and they’re not hard to do get a rod cut a hole. He can stick it through Or buy those little curtain clips, you can even hem them tuck the extra in the back up. Top sheets are great for curtains! ✌🏻💞😊
In Central Florida, we use old blankets to cover up our tropical plants during winter freezes. I just keep those linens in the garage on a shelf.
The old stained one,if you have room, make great drop cloths, pile leave small limbs and sticks to drag away but not if you have to downsized! lol 🤣!
She was ruthless!! Great job. Love the Sampson cameo at the end.
Always working bts ❤
I'm facing a future move out of this house where I've been for 30 years - this is inspiring....Many good wishes to you both! Thanks for the motivation - the shoes I so relate to - I have many things I can't wear anymore but just get lazy or to attached to my past self to get rid of.....time to call friends!
My husband and I did a similar move after 34 years to a house half the size of the old one. We decluttered for 2 years prior to the move and still had so much that we rented a storage unit for 5 months after the move for the excess. It's hard work, but the more you toss, the easier it gets and the more you want to toss. Promise yourself that you WON'T waste money on a storage unit for the "Maybe items." Those " maybes turn into donate. Best wishes for a happy new decluttered home.
Your videos help me so much. I’m moving in August and started tossing, donating and giving away to family and friends.
Wonderful!
Carla, she is doing amazing. Tell her we are so proud of how well she is doing. I know she has to feel so good. By letting go of so much. Oh cute Samson is doing so good too. Love that sweet boy. He’s a great assistant.
🎉Proud of
you Becky 🎉
Thank you, Carla. You are keeping me moving into a "life of less clutter" with your videos.
❤
I'm so glad!💖
What a great decluttering!!! I know she feels lighter!!!
With the shoes is exactly what happens if you come back to an already decluttered space. You are not overwhelmed anymore and can really decided if you need all of it or not. Good Job ❤
That second clothes closet seemed like it keeps going forever. You kept pulling out more and more hanging clothes. Samson was so patient while you worked. What a great assistant.
This episode could have been called "The Crazy Clown-Car Closet." Good job, Becky!
Becky you are doing so much better than the 1st video. So proud of you. Carla is the 💣 😊❤😊
That was seriously impressive. You know Becky meant business when she decluttered 26!! pairs of shoes in the first five minutes!!
I had to lol at the dresses being pulled out of the end of the closet…like the closet just kept going. :-)
Fantastic work to both of you!!
I like to sew curtains or table runners, or dresser top covers with my flat sheets. Or when painting use as protectors for floor or furniture or cover outdoor furniture for the winter.
This video was so satisfying!
So proud of beccy!!
Thank you carla for your uplifting spirit ❤
Love from Germany
Glad you enjoyed it!
Becky is amazing! The strength she is showing throughout this process and her bravery in sharing it with the world is incredible ❤
Oh my gosh! I was so shocked when Becky let go of that whole box of CDs/DVDs! Her decluttering muscles are STRONG! Way to go, Becky and Carla. These videos are so motivating and I just love them and the vibe you guys have together. Such good friends and you do fantastic work.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️
I like my flat sheets, especially in the summer when I don't use blankets.
The video where you helped her declutter her closet originally? I just watched it again a few weeks ago. It’s kinda full circle now watching you help her declutter it for moving. 😊
Becky kicked ass! She should be proud.
I am loving this series with Becky. I have 2 walk in closets that are exactly packed like Becky’s closet. I did a massive declutter on 1 closet and donated 8 bags of clothes. I am so happy I watched this video first and said if Becky can do it, I can do it. Thank you for being such a great help and sharing your journey. Carla, I love when you do series like this and with your sister. Awesome motivation! Thank you for sharing.
It might be a good idea to get those VCR tapes digitised - it's such old technology most people can't even play them these days! Plus the tapes degrade over time so you risk losing what's on them anyway. Also, digitising them means you can get rid of the physical tapes which saves space too!
Wow Carla, Becky did a great job 👏🙌 I love the way you encouraged her in a kind way, I think it made all the difference when she was struggling to make decisions & yep I agree Samson is the best assistant 🐶🥰
Loving this series Carla. Becky is super! 🥰🥳
Dear Becky, I'm living vicariously through your generosity to share your life changing move with all of us. I really feel the need for a change in my work and my home, however, that's not in the cards for the next year or so. I imagine something Cinderella-esk is coming around the corner for you. You found your fairytale home and the magic is unleashed. Enjoy!💗
An additional bag for trash would be great. If something is torn or simply worn out donation places will have to throw the item out, too, and that is so much work for them.
💕 Congratulations to the new place and great declutter💕
I cannot throw some items, I send them anyway, they dont have any attachment and they throw it away without remorse.
It is more work and expense but they have some good stuff for free that they can sell. In the end it is even.
I got rid of flat sheets years ago. I found a lot of people make curtains out of their flat sheets.
Why, you don’t use flat sheets?
Yay Becky! You're doing great! It's hard to look at all the memories held in those clothes and make those decisions. But it's so good for you. I can't wait to see how it all fits in the new home. And thanks Carla - after Becky's bathroom declutter, I did my bathroom and decluttered a small garbage bag of stuff. I pretend like you are there talking me through it. 😃
Time will tell if all the stuff she is keeping will fit; but she sure is doing a great job getting rid of stuff for now!
When are we going to get some Carla & Samson content? I miss going with you on your Target trips. Lolol! However, this was Awesome and you are a true Godsend! 🤎💫😊
I think this week actually!! Cleaning up my place so should have one out soon💖💖
@@TheCarlaProject Yay! Looking forward to it. 👏🏽
I'm so proud of you, Becky 😊Carla, you're a wonderful friend 😉
I think the previous declutters helped Becky get a feel for the process and exercise her decluttering muscles. She did a great job and made decisions so quickly! Best of luck in the new place, Becky! Would love to see a closet setup video of Carla working her organizing magic. 😊 Thanks for sharing.
👏👏👏 Becky did an amazing job of letting go. The more rounds of decluttering you go the easier it becomes. She definitely has proven this to be true. At the end of the video you looked a little tired Carla, which is understandable with the magnitude of items you both were going through, but Becky actually looked relieved. Moving can really change your perspective on what you can release and you really do notice all of the things you haven't been using when you have to go through it all. Great job ladies!
Good job Becky & Carla.
I felt we were experiencing the lion, the witch and the wardrobe scene…More clothes just kept coming out of that closet😂
Hi Carla, perhaps recommend The Daily Connoisseur to your friend. I can't a ten (10)item total wardrobe. But I have the items down to three (3) sub-sets, active wear, work, and going out/Church weddings/parties as one. I also have the ten items for winter and summer (fall/spring is the same). Remind her that the backyard is worth the smaller closet. Best wishes!!!
She really did well with your help!! Amazing 🤩
OUTSTANDGING job both of you. I think that once Becky new what her new space constraints would be, and her vision for that space, she knew she'd have to let go of a lot more. Wow!
Becky did such a great job! 🎉🎉🎉
I've been doing a lot of decluttering lately. I have been finding life overwhelming lately and decluttering It has really been helping me to think more clearly and feel a bit less stressed. The more things we own the more things we have to clean, dry, tidy, store and organise. Plus check periodically for mould or other damage. Thanks for your videos Carla they're great.
I love this series even more because she is an NKOTB fan! Love the photo of her and Donnie in the background ❤
That’s right!! Nkotb 4eva 😊😊
Thanks! I always wondered you that was she was pictured with! 😂. I hope she kept the autographed one in the red frame
WOW Becky! What an amazing job. You will definitely see the difference when you move. You will probably enjoy wearing the clothes you have kept. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Look forward to the next video Carla ❤
Please tell Becky that she did a GREAT JOB!! She inspired me to be ruthless and clean out my closet!!! Thank y’all!!!❤❤
I keep a lot of my cards also🥰
I love Becky’s laugh!
Omg Becky did absolutely amazing. Oh the clothes wardrobe, it just kept giving, I was wondering was there an extra section in there or what 😂 The donation centre are very lucky to get so much stuff. Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 👏👏💪👍🙏💐🐕🦺
She did amazing!! ❤
We all need a friend like Carla❤
I rarely leave comments but you have been my favorite channel to watch this year! Your videos are so motivating and I love being able too see all the different spaces of people you help as well! You are awesome!
Thank you so much!! 😍💖
Becky, you go girl❤, with the help from Carla, you’ve done a massive job. I’m impressed by how sturdy the pole is in the wardrobe holding the garments up 🙌. I was overwhelmed at the changes made today, so hard to do and so satisfying when done ❤❤❤
Declutter NINJAS!!! You two are amazing, a real Dream Team!
I love your musical taste! I'm so grateful I don't have yo hear the same Ole music from the other channels I watch ❤😂😊😊 will you be doing a move in and organize video with her?
Wow, she got rid of so much! I'm impressed 🎉
I have never seen Becky so distressed like in this video. I felt her frustration while watching. Congrats to the both of you ! You did an amazing job! 🎉
Yay! We are here supporting you, Becky!
❤️❤️❤️ your music selection.
i love graphic tees, i have probably closer to 40-50... i live in a nordic country so realistically i only wear them in the summer which is 2-3 months of a year
