Use the overabundance of canvas bags at your yard sale. Need a bag? Let me bag this up for you. Pass those on! //don't charge for them, just bag sales stuff up in them
You are passing on some my little ponies to new homes! That is huge, you have made such positive progress in your journey. Knowing the right time to part with something and when isn’t is important. I have some “don’t even think about these yet” boxes, Marie Kondo even said leave sentimental till last
Your self compassionate approach is why I recommend your channel to so many people. I have been watching for years and seeing your philosophy evolve has been very inspiring. I love your recent videos that have been more like your older videos, exploring and explaining the different reasons for your hoard and how you face the challenge.
Hearing you explain the reasons behind your clutter and the emotions of dealing with it has given me an understanding of why and how this happens. I never would have known otherwise. Thank you for being so open. I am loving the watching your decluttering muscles grow. You are a true inspiration.
I don't post anything online - facebook or otherwise. Whatever I declutter goes straight into the back of my car and off to Goodwill! I don't need a pile of 'stuff' sitting around my house! I started decluttering back in 2014! And I'm STILL combing my house for things to declutter! I'm down to one or a few things at a time (as opposed to FILLING a full size van with a trailer behind it lol!)
You are doing amazing! It's so wonderful watching your progress. What we as viewers don't see is what it takes for you to deal with the tossy tossy piles! That's even more work to process. So you're doing great!
Ms Heart, I think it may be helpful for you to declutter that big chair that was by where you were decluttering today, because over the last few years it seems to have become a clutter magnet, in that you have cleared stuff off it and then it has re-accumulated over and over again. So decluttering it would help you to stop using it as a clutter placement holder or re-churning spot where you pile stuff. Also, considering the water and mould you have had in your basement over the last year or two and the fact that there was dust down there that chair is probably full of nasty mould spores, mildew or layers of dust mites by now.
@@sq1076 Yes it did, but would Ms Heart want her children to sit on it, knowing the risks it may pose to their health? I think she should at least get the upholstery professionally cleaned if she keeps it to be safe.
@@isabellerininger6249 Totally it is Ms Hearts decision to make and no one else’s. I have watched Ms Hearts journey from the very beginning. I know her journey well.
Miss Heart ❤️ I love when you explain all your emotions and how it’s ok to have them but also to release them too. I get great enjoyment when you find something you need or are looking for. You encourage all of us too with kindness and encouragement, thank you. Like other TH-camrs have said when you do a second and third pass it’s easier and you are ready to let more stuff go. I really hope you get a fine weekend soon 🙏🤞 to do the yard sale. Miss Pepper is as adorable as always 🐈 Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 🙇♀️👏👍💪🙏💐🐈🦄🌞
Hun I can FEEL you frustration this week through the screen. You are still doing such a great job and we are all so proud of you! You don’t have to declutter perfectly…..you just can’t STOP! That’s what I tell myself ;)
This.. i have 1 kid. Most people consider us minimalist. Every week i take one room and i declutter it (take everything out of the closet, clean it and decide what goes back in. I have been doing this for 17 years and every week i find stuff to let go. And when i think i am done i start at the beginning and there always is stuff we no longer need or use or want.
When you were talking about not clearing away your piles of things from previous videos, it’s not just ADHD but it is your Butterfly organising tendencies too. It’s too hard to put things away when there are lids, so we Butterflies will pile on top of them or next to them. Unfortunately it’s hard in a long-term storage space like basements and attics because we need lids to protect our things. I have been working on it myself and if I feel I really don’t want to because it’s too hard to put away I count how long it takes me, so I know it’s usually under 5 or 10 seconds. I really have to talk myself through it though! Those shelves Mr Heart made for you to store the big tots on are helpful, I know for myself if I stack a few big things on top of each other then nothing will ever get put away in lower ones, so I am longing for some good shelving in my garage and attic!
Hey Miss Heart 🦄 That was a big today today pile, wow! And yes, it is so very important to find the ways we are self-sabotaging, smile forgive and understand why, and than change. Not an easy journey, but sure a rewarding one 💜 Would you consider to film a swipe from left to right while standing on the bottom of your stairs, just to give an overview of basement’s status? Would be exciting to see for us, AND will hold you accountable to really process the items you dealt with in that filming session. Maybe that’s a lever to use against ADHS?
Oh my goodness Kissing Koolers!! You going through your childhood things is totally nostalgic for me…we are so similar and definitely grew up in the same time period 😆🥰Thanks always for sharing so much with us and being so open. You are such a help and encouragement!! 🫶🏻❤️ Fellow “hoarder” and recently diagnosed ADHD….I am currently making my way through all the things I have saved and the MANY craft projects and ideas I have been collecting over the years (but rarely actually get to 🙈🤷🏻♀️) and learning to let go of the guilt…It is SUCH a process and takes time!!
Thank you miss Heart for explaining the emotions that comes with decluttering. Especially decluttering at a hoarders place. It's also so reassuring how you say it's ok when one is not ready to let go. You understand yourself so well and came so far. I am learning as I go and also declutter stuff from decades ago. It's so tough and have a long way to go. It's an emotional rollercoaster and most of your thought process resonates with me too.
Hope you know you are the best!! Truly appreciate your videos. You feel both like a bestie and a professional declutter organizer and I am thankful for how good you make us all feel when sharing your tips.
Is Your husband working through his stuff as he can behind the scenes so that his clutter eventually leaves the home??🇨🇦🍁😊 YES DO NOT BRING Yard Sale Items in take directly to the thrift store 😉😉
You are such an inspiration. I just decluttered the top of the dog crate. I had piled granddaughter’s toys there while we had a visitor. I went through it and found a grocery bag full to toss. Moved the rest to where it belongs. Felt so good. Also shredded and threw out a stack of old papers.
Since you talk about stuff always coming in, have you thought about how to reduce that amount? Of course there is an ebb and flow, but I've noticed with my low buy year that I have really enjoyed putting limits in place and having less stuff come in my home that I will eventually have to deal with. I would love more videos on this topic of stuff coming in. Maybe keep track of what comes in for a random week?
As you spoke of churning the hoard I was thinking how you could move it… and I realized I’m an expert stuff churner. 🤪 Great video, you are continuing to get the basement decluttered.
Great video!❤ May I suggest that down the track, you may invest in some large tubs with one large drawer for items that you need easy access to, eg. party supplies. Tubs are great for items requiring longer storage. I have found that this has helped me put things away in their place.
At work we started these micro learning videos for our employees, just small snippets of learning not to overwhelm just to learn something extra. Maybe it’s an idea? A micro learning series if you are on your way to a declutter journey?
The bag is beautiful. I usually give away my bags. Lately however I repurpose them. I have some things that I need and use but cannot find a home for it. I would decorate it if I was you, by using flowers iron ons or decoupage anything literally over the print decorate around the decoupage with lace, ribbons etc. Now you have a beautiful bag to store ribbons, or any other items you don't have a home for it. I wish I could go and get it for myself. No car 😢.
💜💜💜 Hey, you've got this! Just look forward to your future craft area, future memorabilia area, etc!!! Y'all could even put a projector down there for family movie nights and parties!!! Please look forward to the future as much as you can. We are rooting for you! 💜💜💜
Bravo!🥳👏👏👏You’ll get it done, working bit by bit! Bravo also for your attitude - thank you for sharing your insights!🦄❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 (And if you’re watching without subscribing, please consider hitting that button, because she’s almost at 50 000!)
You've made terrific progress. I've never hoarded, but I still have craft stuff and sentimental stuff. It's the number of things we have. I'm comfortable with one shelf or one small bin for each craft. You may feel comfortable with one large bin or a bookcase for each craft or collection. Just be comfortable with yourself. Tina, Al's wife
Good job. Yup things are always coming in. I had to be in hospital overnight hubby bought a new throw blanket even though I have more than enough throws. That's just the way it is.
Good job in your mental progress girl! Think about how it would benefit you to let go of the idea of yard sales and saving things for them. Life is too short. Donate 😊
I think the whole point is learning to do it herself so it comes naturally, rewiring her nervous system, as she puts it, to feel comfortable decluttering, not having someone cleaning and throwing things away for her.
hi melanie! just want u to know that i love u. ive been watching ur vids for so long. since d day u were still wearing masks and colorful glasses. can i suggest to make a vid thats not talking abt ur trauma,ADHD, bullying experiences,hoarding tendencies for a change? it would be a breath of fresh air. a lil music here and there would be nice. pls pls pls.
I think ADHD and Hoarding are her specialty though so maybe better to stick with what works. Also many people have hearing or sensory problems and cant watch ones with a lot of music in them. There are so many other videos that are like what you described, if fact you might like the channel "living with Cambrea" it always has good music and it's sorting decluttering and cleaning.
Use the overabundance of canvas bags at your yard sale. Need a bag? Let me bag this up for you. Pass those on! //don't charge for them, just bag sales stuff up in them
Great idea!!
That’s what I do and it’s great! People really like it!
I just culled my bag collection this week and was planning to use the extras in an upcoming yard sale!
Love how open and raw you are in video. It really helped me a lot to just accept where I am and start from now.
Thank you for being sich a constant inspiration. It feels so cathartic to watch you. If you can do it, I can do it, too

You let go of some My Little Pony things!!! So so proud of you, that shows such progress - keeping the treasuriest-treasures! 💕💖✨🦄
Your confidence in yourself and your ability to make decluttering decisions grows right in front of our eyes with every video! You are amazing! 💗
I bet Pepper is enjoying having her Mama home every day ❤
You're doing great! Don't be hard on yourself. You're amazing! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise
It's an honor to bear witness to your amazing and beautiful healing learning and growing journey, and you are a help to me on mine.

I believe it may have belonged to her father, if I'm not mistaken. So it's probably quite sentimental to her just like the vintage exercise bike.

Biohazard. Breathing mold can cause allergic and respiratory symptoms.
We are just here to witness her journey. She will let it go when she’s ready. 👍

Thank you for sharing what you have learned. It helps so much! ❤
You’re on a roll with decluttering!!
Always excited for you when you find trash - will be easy and the impact will be great! You have come so far and we're all very proud of you!

I got 2 garbage bags of donations I had churned to the charity today thanks to this video
We use our suitcases for extra storage for not used clothes for the seasons.
You’re doing an amazing job!!
Fantastic job beautiful lady ❤️ so proud of you you explain things beautifully 🦄💜
Yay, Ms. Heart!🥰
I did a little decluttering today too! Just a few things are leaving.
Pepper is always ready for a declutter.
Since you talk about stuff always coming in, have you thought about how to reduce that amount?

Cutting down on what cones in is the key!
Are you still waiting for a non rainy weekend to have the yard sale? 😢 I hope you get one soon!
I have been watching you from the beginning. I love to watch the decluttering more than anything.
I look forward to these every Friday 😊
As you spoke of churning the hoard I was thinking how you could move it… and I realized I’m an expert stuff churner. 🤪
Great video, you are continuing to get the basement decluttered.
Lovely talk today! I’m looking forward to the yard sale -it will be epic!😁😁
You are doing a great job! You encourage me to keep decluttering!❤❤❤❤❤
Your videos make me happy
Another great result! Bravo
Great video!❤

Hello from Germany, hi Miss Heart and miouw pepper. Good job . Last week i buy my littel girl (3 1/2) a carebear T-Shirt, so nostalgic😢 .

Great job! 🩷
I feel the guilt, too..Thank you for this video
Perhaps you could do a colab with Dana K White at A Slob Comes Clean. She’s awesome at reducing the churn
What a great idea! Ms Heart's home might be ready for that method now.
You are doing so well! I believe you Can do it. ❤❤❤

Stop buying maybe!
I strictly donate. I'd rather not have piles sitting around.
