I Tried Minimalism for 30 Days (with The Minimal Mom)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 มิ.ย. 2024
- I've been avoiding this challenge for a LONG time... but I think it's time that I finally try out minimalism. 30 days of living with 4 plates, 5 shirts, and 2 coffee mugs may make me a little crazy, but in the end, will I come to enjoy the simplicity of it all? Or will my husband throw a bowl at me?
Well quit reading the description already and just watch the video and find out!!!!!!!

Dawn said in one of her videos that you were one of the few TH-camrs she watched on a regular basis. I love you… but, I thought WHAT A HUGE AND HIGH COMPLIMENT!! I’m so glad you did this video with her. You both are truly the most motivating and entertaining woman of TH-cam!!!
❤️❤️ thank you!!!!
Agreed!❤
They are indeed :D
YES! Huge compliment!!
Absolutely !
Love that you worked with Dawn on this! You’re both awesome, great video!
I believe at the beginning of this video these are clips cut from some of Dawns video. So cleverly done though!!
@@alexiamcbride7441I had the same thought! But I see someone else commented that Dawn sent an email about this video to her mailing list, so I think it’s a legit collab ✅ 🤷♀️
I love Dawn! This was a great collaboration!
This is the best Collab! I hope Dawn mentions it on her channel cause you totally deserve more subscribers!!!
I just an email from her telling me about this video! That's why I'm here 😊 So .... yes she mentioned her
Great! I low the awkward mum 😊
@@auntela yep I got the email and that’s why I’m here too lol
@@dianasimplifies welcome! you will love her
@@TrulyHighContrastArt I've actually watched her bf and she's hilarious. I love how huge her eyes get 😂
The throw pillows! 😆 I love that Dawn can laugh at herself.
And the use of inventory!! That was what got me hooked
I watch everything Dawn creates and found this hilarious and exactly on point too. Well done!
Yes I laughed out loud at the throw pillow reference! Love Dawn so much!
I lost it at "I have THROW PILLOWS!"
I laughed out loud at the stare down. Dawn got me started decluttering 3 plus years ago. You and she are like little sisters!
I'm learning lessons I wish I had known many years ago. (I'm 75 and a recent widow)
Keep helping me think and laugh!
Me too!😂
I’m a huge fan of The Minimal Mom…Dawn. She is smart, a good human, and an excellent communicator. Oh, and she is inspiring. I love your humor!
I love Dawn. She gives you guidelines, but you need to make it work with your own life. She has helped me considerably. My husband is a bit of a hoarder so I just go through my own things, but it truly has made a difference. Like you mentioned, she helps you work through the guilt of getting rid of stuff. I love that you two worked together on this, because I love you both!
I agree completely! She's helped me so much in just a couple of months.
You shouldn't be called the awkward mom, you should be called the hilarious mom! I love Dawn and minimalism but I can't take it down to such a small amount of stuff either!
yes, the Hilarious Mom! You ARE very funny and I enjoy your channel a lot. ty for putting it (all) out there
We are remodeling a 700 square foot cabin in Alaska and I am having a similar problem with my husband… I do love the minimalist lifestyle but I am also addicted to thrifting!!!!!
@@reneeguthrie2192 I love thrifting too! I think the key for me is to only thrift for things I need. Though I have a weakness for kids' books, admittedly.
So, the one thing I just can’t go along with with Dawn is putting the lids on the leftover containers and only keeping the number you can have with the lids on. I work outside the home and take my lunch every day. I cook only 2 to 3 times per week, and I use containers like that to store the food for my husband to eat when I am gone. At times, we use every single container I have. They are neatly nested in my cupboard with the lids conveniently stored to the side. I’ve had people comment on how neatly my leftover containers are stored, so I do not consider that cupboard to be cluttered.
I love Dawn and she has helped me simplify a lot, but there’s no way I’m having 1 dish per person thereby making me hand wash dishes all day long. I’m a dishwasher girl all the way! I’ve gotten rid of so much stuff. But I’m not a total minimalist by any means. Loved this video!
We like to have about a day's worth of dishes in our cabinets. Enough to make it through the average day, but a small enough amount to still fit in the dishwasher.
I found that a days worth of dishes (1-3 meals for family of three) fits in the dishwasher so it's once a day washing, and it works out!
Exactly my thoughts. Love Dawn and her approach on stuff. I hear what she says but apply it in a way that suits our family. So we have 2 towels per person, 2 dishes, etc…To each their own
Same! Lol.
Me too, we have 10 plates so the dishwasher can do the work instead of me.
Love this video! The throw pillow skit, and minimal rap is just the cherry on the cake. 🤣
So funny! Yes!😂
Awww, this is so fun! I heard Dawn in an interview say you’re one of the few channels she watches on TH-cam and it made me soooo happy to see this collaboration! 💕
Yes! That’s how I found the awkward mom!
@@rebeccahileman3954 same!!
I'm with you on adjusting limits to what works for you. Many folks act like minimalism is one-size-fits-all, but if you do it, it should work for YOU, not you working for it. You illustrated that perfectly. And I see you share a spatula infatuation with Frugal Fit Mom. 😂
Awww I do love Dawn! She has been life changing for me. The way you've put this video together with her is just brilliant and so funny. Two amazing youtubers!! 😍👏 X
Dishwashers actually save water! They use 4 gallons for each cycle. And running water uses 4 gallons for every 2 minutes. Or at least that's what it says on the back of our dishwasher soap pods...haha. so maybe you could run it after lunch too! Love that you collaborated with dawn on this! I love her! I recommend her channel to anyone decluttering!
What about the rinsing befor hand? Every one knows dishwashers just sanitize not really clean things
But they don't clean well. We have one where I work. I much rather wash by hand. Cleaner dishes.
Of course the dishwasher tablets tell you that dishwashers use less water. Not all of us fill our sinks to hand wash. Whatever works for you, do it. 😊 the point is don't get too worried. Hand wash or dish wash, just get those dishes clean and back in the cupboard.
@@ah5721 You shouldn't rinse before putting it in the dishwasher, only scrape the food off. As rinsing doesn't make your plates cleaner, it does the opposite. Detergents are designed to cling to food particles, without a surface to stick to, your dishes won’t get as squeaky clean. And with newer dishwashers, they won’t wash your dishes for very long if the sensors in the machine don’t detect much dirt in the water. Not only that, but rinsing also wastes a lot of water.
That was great to see someone actually trying out Dawn’s minimal numbers. Dawn would approve of how you adapted the numbers at the end and still ended up with much less inventory than when you started.
Decluttering is a very pleasing hobby isn’t it 😃
Dawn is the one who introduced me to minimalism. I didn't implement every single thing, but my house is so much easier to clean now and I just feel like I can breathe. It's wonderful!!
It definitely is not a one size fits all, I only have 1 fork/knife/bowl/plate/glass etc. BUT I have about 30 “tupperwares” because I meal prep weekly for 5 days of meals & snacks so I genuinely require that many, minimalism is about making it work for YOU. I’m low income so while there is only one toothpaste in my house at any one time, you better believe I have a backstock box in the garage with the extras when they were on offer
It doesn’t need to be perfect, it just needs to improve your life for the better to be worth it :)
This is my favorite youtube collaboration I've ever seen. Two of my favorite channels ❤️
The Introducing of the Minimal mom is hilarious😂. Well done!
I am a big fan of both of you!
Greetings from Germany!
Loved the throw pillow gag
Me too. I actually LOL
I like how you took Dawn’s advice and adapted it to you! I enjoy your humor! It’s refreshing to have humor while searching for what home management things work!
Thank you💚
Two of my favorite TH-camrs in one!! Dawn's idea of inventory to manage saved my sanity. I had the same reaction of getting addicted to decluttering and have had zero regrets and so much more peace ☺️
After retiring bc of my husband’s health issues and the pandemic hitting, I started watching Dawn, The Minimal Mom. Shortly after watching her I got inspired to declutter bc I was spending all day cleaning and just moving the same stuff from place to place. That said I have been decluttering for going on 3 years and constantly find things that are not necessary any longer!! Like you I have more of the dishes than Dawn suggests but have what I need and use on a regular basis. This has been sooo freeing and I have time for other things now like relaxing and my sewing hobby and Bible study!!! I has improved my quality of life!! Thanks for the video and sharing your journey so far!!
Well said!!
I love this Collab! The beginning was hilarious!!! Dawn and the pillows! 😅
I've heard Dawn and Cas say how much they enjoy you and think you're funny. This was hilarious! Especially the throw pillows part!❤❤
Gurl! You're comedic content was so good! The writer/editor of your video is genius! Thank you for sharing minimalism with a sense of humor.
Dawn is literally everywhere currently. And I am so grateful for it! I started minimizing my inventory with Dana, Cass and espespecialy Dawns help, and it already made such a huge difference. I went to my first flea market today, my car stuffed to the ceiling (and that wasn't even everything I decluttered), I earned a few bucks and most importantly, freedom and peace. This is just the beginning, and i can't wait to size down even more. Thank you for showing how well Dawns approach works, you did an amazing job ❤
I love the idea of a 30 day challenge. You can pack things away and determine what works and what doesn’t. My quess is that it’s unlikely that you would pull everything back out.
I often look at 1, 3, 7 or 10 when considering how many I need. Just 1? 3 = 1 to wash, 1 to wear, one to spare? 7 = 1 for each day of the week? 10 = cuz that’s how we count?? Doesn’t always work, but gives me a good starting point.
I agree with rule of 1, 3, 7 and 10 - my mum did that one and I've continue it where practical
From coffee struggles to dishwashing dilemmas, your 30 days challenge into minimalism had me wishing I could rap while I clean and declutter. Now, I am evaluating my own cluttered life. You've inspired me to reconsider giving it a shot to do some minimalism... after I finish my coffee, of course! 😄☕
Even though I watch Dawn, Dana & Cas, (FlyLady too) I think your video will push me to actually do a 30 day trial of minimalism. By the way, I LOVE your videos! And I’m also “creatively resourceful”. 😉
This collaboration is amazing!! I love Dawn and follow her.
Keep in mind, minimalism is different for everyone. I have many plates and bowls, but only 6 forks and knives (we are a family of 4) and about 14 tea spoons 😂
Its about making your life easier, that's different from one person to another.
Lots of great observations with great humor. Your husband is such a good sport! Hiding under the counter talking like a bowl had me laughing out loud!
Loved today's video. I've been watching Dawn Dana and Cass. You are now in my top 5 most watched channels. I really like the way you breakdown of the week and your " Realism". Yep, realistic! Keep up the good work!
I love how all these ladies' go together...try "The Secret Slob" as well, she has good cleaning tips, too!
❤
👏👏👏 Great video! SO impressive that you did all that decluttering work with a baby! 🥳Two things I wanted to mention - I don’t think Dawn has a dishwasher, so having fewer plates, cups etc. probably means several mini-hand washing sessions rather than one marathon one after dinner. Also, when people give you hand-me-downs, try to go through them as they come in the door - you will likely find things that don’t suit your taste, are already too small, will be uncomfortable for your child, etc. (I sometimes saw hand-me-down clothes that were new, had been received as gifts and had buttons down the back, scratchy fabric, etc.) Be ruthless! It’s kind of people to give you hand-me-downs, but if they aren’t useful, donate them so they can bless someone else!
Looks fantastic! I think decluttering regularly is the most helpful part for neatness, cleaning and a more calm, useful environment ❤ Numbers of inventory isn't anything I've attempted.
This is the collab I’ve been wanting!!!!
The straightened hair 😆🤣 too funny. This is great ! How did you know we were planning to start purging out our home today? The timing of this video is impeccable. My husband and I are so excited 😂
I love this! Your channel and Dawn's are both on my top list of "notify me" TH-cam bells! Dawn has always said "You do you" and I love that you used the challenge to totally figure out and tweak some changes that work for your unique home and family. And, man, I want some of that magic coffee!!
💗💗💗🤪💗
I feel the EXACT same way about Dawn and minimalism! My journey, and i suspect many others, was the EXACT experience: adjusting qtys to tailor it to my life. I also was excited to declutter all my additional spaces. Gives the same "high" as shopping used to be. You two are among my favorite channels.
I enjoy both your content and sense of humor, so this is pure joy
Most relatable video ever! I’ve been following Dawn for a while, and I started right when I knew we were done having kids and I would not be returning to the office regularly. My wardrobe was overstuffed with so many sizes and office clothes, but as bad as my clothes were- my kids had 10x as many clothes from hand me downs and gifts. And we all use those diaper boxes for storing clothes! ❤
Diaper boxes are the best boxes!!!
My kids are 18 and 15, and I still have some things stored in diaper boxes!
Full on 'minimal' with dishes is a challenge for me. I like to have a few extra, in case of breakages, life, or visitors. That said, I halved my inventory of them last year and have not looked back.
Thank you The Awkward Mom and The Minimal Mom for this fun video about the 30-day experiment with minimalism. I found Dawn on youtube about six months ago and have been using her techniques for decluttering. I feel the same way. The more I declutter, the more I want to get declutter even more. In the process I have felt an awesome (freeing) mind shift where I want to live with less. I have a ways to go, but each time I get rid of stuff, it helps keep the momentum to get ride of more. Thanks to Dawn, I view everything in my home now as inventory, and I don't want anymore inventory. When I drive by the large new homes being built in my neighborhood, I have no envy. In fact I get a little dizzy thinking about all the inventory those homes will have in them and how much it will take to maintain. Been there, done that, wouldn't do it again. The kitchen is the area where I do have more than what is minimal. I have kept a lot of my plates and bowls. I like them. We use a lot of them regularly and they don't build up in the sink. I also have a lot of storage containers, but this video has given me the motivation to try the 30-day experiment with getting rid of at least half of them, plates and cups, too. With just my husband and I we have a lot of leftovers because we cook a lot at home, and we tend to eat different foods. We also cut up a lot of fruit and vegetables that go in containers, so we do use a lot of them. We now we have 11 in our refrigerator, 2 on the counter and a couple in the freezer. Most of that food gets eaten each week, and we clean out any old food on garbage night. The rest of the containers are organized (I keep all the lids on top of the stacked containers or on the side. It's a system that has worked well for me for years, but I'm open to new ideas and experimenting to really see how much I actually need. It's ok for each person to decide if there is an area of their home where they want a few more things (like Dawn and her throw pillows : ) as long as it's not stressing them out, and they enjoy the item/use it. Thanks again!
The term "Clutter Threshold" is used by Dawn, Dana K White, and/or Cas from Clutterbug (the trifecta of home inventory management). It is the amount of stuff you can manage and it is different for different people. So, your okay with more plates, spatulas and towels. That still fits the definition of minimal living. So now we can call you the Awkward Minimal Mom -- LOL. Love your channel and your content.
I love Cass, especially because she shows imperfections and that you have to work at things - there is no magical fairy coming behind you to clean up and put away (but gosh darning, that would be nice haha)
I have a question for you, I have excess everything, but it seems like with so few clothes, dishes, and towels, you would be washing daily?? Is that what you do? I need help! 🤪
@@truthseeker9075 I’ve been doing this for a few years. I do laundry one day a week. I have enough clothes that I can make it through one week. I have two towels per person because I find one gets gross using it all week. I also have two sets of sheets for the kids, just in case. So I do one load of sheets, one load of towels. A light load and a dark load.
I have one place setting per person and two extra for guests. Same for glasses and silverware. Each person washes their own dishes after each meal. I have one of those little brushes in the ceramic dish that I keep filled with water and a tiny squirt of dish soap (which I change daily). It literally takes less than 1minute to wash, dry, and
put away the dishes.
Following Minimal Moms advice, yes, I have to wash after each meal, but I never have a huge stack of pans and storage containers because so don’t own a huge stack!
You can do this! Good luck❤
@@kathysaoed thank you! What you are doing makes a lot of sense! Thanks for the encouragement!
@@truthseeker9075 You’re welcome! I just thought of another positive about washing dishes after every meal-the food is still wet so it comes off more easily! No more dry crusty dishes, bowls, pans that need to soak first.
I find this video very interesting and informative. I liked the 30 day challenge and I will try it out. I have way too much and love how Dawn gives a number for the items. I just checked and have 31 towels for 2 people. Great video! Thank you Ariel and Dawn.
Dawn instead of Dana😅
@@ginabess619 thank you for the correction. I watch Dawn and Dana for decluttering and they are both amazing people filled with tips and tricks for decluttering and organizing our homes. Ariel I love watching her and can’t wait for her to come up with her own cleaning method. A little from here and there. She’s so much fun to watch and makes things seem effortless.
Deborah....Just wanted to let you know you can easily edit mistakes in any of your posts if you touch the 3 dots at the upper right. This has saved me major embarrassment more times than I can count. 😊 (It only can be done to one's own comments)
@@brendamaun5455 thank you. Old age is too be blamed, lol.
I love Dawn, and I love that you admit to watching her videos!
"No, I'm Dawn! I have throw pillows!" 😆😆
I found her during the pandemic (2020) and after watching for a long time, got the courage to declutter. It is a work in progress, but I love this idea of a trial period.
By the way, I'm pretty sure your husband would say he NEEDS his beard stuff. lol.
From the very start it's the Collab I didn't know I needed in my life! 😆 ❤ Also, running the dishwasher with just those dishes will use less water than hand washing. Try plugging the sink while you hand wash to see how much water you're actually using. This has inspired me to try it when my ex finally moves out 😁
I always plug the sink. I rinse into the wash water and never use anywhere near as much water to hand wash and rinse as is claimed. I have never met anyone who doesn’t put the plug in the sink (or use a dishpan) when washing dishes by hand. This is a straw man argument by the dishwasher manufacturers.
@@thesender6321 agree
I love how you take the various systems you’ve tried and find the points that work for you and your family.
I saw a video a bit ago about how when Dawn went out of town her husband pulled out more dishes too. I think what you have in your cupboards now is still fairly minimal, and you were definitely following Dana's theory about your cupboards being a container so you needed to let something go in order to comfortably fit the coffee. Good job!
I keep less of some things so I can keep more other things. It depends on what you are in to. I have a lot of books and canning supplies. Whereas I am not really into clothes and accessories, so I am more minimalist on that stuff. There is no way I could do 1 dish and towel per person. Only running the dishwasher once a day and washing towels once a week, frees me up to do other things.
School is out next week here in Tennessee! Some of my co workers are looking forward to beach vacays, amusement parks etc- i can hardly wait to stay home and Get Rid of all the stuff in my kitchen and closets and purge!!!! Ibam seriously looking so forward to it!! Thanks for this video!
This is my dream collaboration. I literally laughed so hard with the slow turn takeout!
Great video. I did some of this years ago and am so grateful. My husband is a maximalist so it’s tricky. But I keep my personal stuff and most kitchen items to as little as possible. It really helps.
I love The Minimal Mom and her husband - they make me feel like I can do anything! Loved this video!
This was a great way for those new to minimalism to have a starting point and to also see it in action. Love your sense of humor (and that Dawn played along) and you kept it real.
The Awkward Mom and The Minimal Mom?! The best idea for a collaboration ever! ❤ You are two of my favorites!
I am so impressed how you tackled this challenge! This was an excellent video - one of my all time favs. You are funny and witty. Really I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed and was inspired by this video!
I’m 63. I’ve been a “minimalist” from the day I had some free agency. My mom said I’d throw the furniture out if she didn’t stop me. I don’t believe in the counting method but the space method. Designate the space once the space is filled, then it’s one in one out.
Growing up in a house where there was clutter everywhere, I get triggered by clutter as an adult. So I do a pretty good job of keeping clutter at bay. After watching this video, I have now unlocked a new trigger, not enough stuff! lol We are a family of three. If I only had 3 bowls, plates, cups, etc. I'd lose it! Does this minimal women not ever have company over? ...and the towels?? Only one per person is insane. What about beach towels? Or old towels for when you have a nasty spill, are you going to use the same bath towel to clean up nasty stuff? Some of these things are impractical. The clothes thing I could see if you can't close your drawers, but everything else is ludicrous. Trigger over. I'm gonna go an clean out my t shirt drawer. Love your videos!
I’m with you. Too few. I watch Dawn too and I think I can be minimal in some areas but not in others.
this is a fun collab! i enjoyed it so much! Dawn in my ear (earphones) while decluttering early in the morning while everybody still snoring is the one that got me thru most of my decluttering weeks before we moved outofstate especially the paper clutter that i have kept more than 20 years. it's not a one time thing tho as things creep in especially with young kids and husband not on board. but it's easier for me now. love Dawn and Clutterbug!
Absolutely loved when you pretended to be the Minimal Mom 😂 you're so funny ❤ yay for trying minimalism for 30 days Dawn was the catalyst for my journey into simple living 🥰 my life is honestly so much better now 👍
Also.. we’ve got 5 kids and a mini farm…
Trust me, some dawn spray and wash and a rinse AS SOON AS YOUR DONE, onto the drying rack… no dishes 😅❤
Two of my favorite moms on TH-cam! Nice work! You did awesome! ❤
And your awesome too
Loved this collab! I like minimalism channels but need the flexibility to taper it to my own life. Your videos are always calming and relaxing. ❤️🥰🌹
Ah! Two of my favorite TH-camrs joining forces! That introduction to her was so epic! Love it 🤣🤣
This is amazing! Loved every minute of it and love both you and Dawn!
I haven't been so excited to watch a video in a long time! So fun!
I love Dawn and her sister, Diane. I am not a minimalist, but have simplified and become more minimaler-er. I. LOVE. IT!
This was fantastic! Loved the collab with Dawn and how you're making it work for you!
Yay! I love both of you so much and love that you collaborated on this video ❤
So happy to see two of my favs together!!! Great video!
Editing was superb! Love seeing you both!!
Very inspiring fun video! What a treat to see Dawn do this with you!❤️
This was so fun to watch! I’m thankful for the introduction from Dawn and I subscribed to your channel now!
Love this video!! Especially that you and Dawn did it together!! So fun!!
Love your sense of humor😆 and Dawn was so sweet to participate. I’m inspired
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! Y’all are the best!! ❤
This was great! Two of my favorite you tube moms...together. Thank you!
I don't think I'll ever be a TRUE minimalist (because I don't want to be), BUT I do keep my home simplified. I am an extreme perfectionist and I love everything in my home to have a home, and I love everything being nice and tidy and organized. It just makes everything so much easier, and it keeps my brain happy. 🙂
You have inspired me! I love your videos and sense of humor! ♥️
Awww this was just great 😂 two great women coming together with a splash of humor. Love it 🥰
Love it! I laughed so hard!! I have watch and learned from Dawn for years!! ❤ I can’t wait to watch your next video! Thank you so much!!
You have no idea how much I loved this video. You both have been my favorite TH-camrs for a year or so now, and you two collaborating has been my favorite thing ever!!
Adorable! You both bring so much light & joy to weekend chore time
So awesome! I am a big fan of both of you! It's so great to see you together! Also, yes! I love minimalism so much! We are in matinance mode now and it's made such a big difference. Welcome to the club!
Love Dawn!! She’s helped me
So much 👏🏻💕 And you did so well! 🎉
I just love your channel and your sense of humor. Love that you and The Minimal Mom, Dawn, are working together. Thanks
I love this collaboration with Dawn. One of your best.
Great video!!! Dawn is an amazing resource for simplifying life. Im glad you were able to get to a point that makes your life easier:)
The best collab! ❤️ I’ve been following this channel this the beginning and am so excited about your channel growing and now this collab!
I enjoyed the laughs - been with Dawn for quite awhile, but always getting back to it, and this was inspirational.
Loved this!! I have been watching Dawn, Dana, and Cas for over two years. I’m so slowly making progress. But your video gave me some new ideas for making progress more quickly. Most of all, I LOVE the humor you add to going minimalist. Thank you!
My favorite video!! I love Dawn from the minimal mom! Great job! I'm striving towards minimalism 😊
Yippee! I am so glad you did this series, I just knew it would be a big hit for you! You did a wonderful job with Dawn! I am sending it to people that I can’t get to understand minimalism because you did it in such a fun way. So happy for you ❤
This makes me so happy! I love Dawn! Her TH-cam channel was a Godsend when my oldest was about 12-18 months old and my life was overrun with toys and felt out of control! This collab is so great! Well done ladies!
I love love love getting rid of stuff and being minimal. I’m not interested in being extreme with it, I like following the “does it fit in my container” method more, I have room for them and I love them, so my 15 pairs of jeans are staying!
you need at least 2 towels per person because when one towel is in the wash you have a set to use until they are dry. same with sheets. you always need more plates and bowls, cutlery etc with clothes - i would have as much as i need. there are different levels of minimalism. Extreme minimalism is way too extreme for me...the idea is everything should be intentional and have a home. I think you did a good job. people have way too much junk in the home.
My favorites! I'm so happy y'all know each other now!! This is great!
I love all my fav channels doing collaborations! Yasssss!
