    Would like a clothing declutter! I need inspiration to do the same and I feel the same. Most of what I have isn’t me and doesn’t make me feel like myself

    This is probably the most realistic decluttering video I’ve watched in a long time. It isn’t an easy task at all, and takes time to get to the final result.😀

    It would be a great to see you develop a capsule wardrobe for this season of life ❤

    I know what you mean, when you talk about experiencing a style change mixed with a weight change! I’d love to see capsule wardrobe/ wardrobe declutter/wardrobe revamp videos! Whatever works for you!

  • @sd.092

    Yes, would love to see your closet declutter!

    One of the biggest pieces of advice I'd give you about fibro is learning to pace yourself throughout the day. It's not easy - I've had my diagnosis for 6 years now and still struggle to remember even when I'm feeling good, that I still need to practice pacing.

    Thank you for sharing this. I find decluttering emotionally draining but hubby and daughter encourage and support me and I am slowly tackling a drawer or cupboard. Feel so much better afterwards though!!

    Oh yes, the joy you feel when the room you’re working in looks beautiful, then you go into other rooms and everything has accumulated somewhere else! 😂😂.
    You are beautiful inside and out Kay! I’d love to know your skin care routine, your skin always looks so good.
    Thank you for sharing. Stay well and stsy safe. Sending love and healing. Xxx 💖🙏🌻

    I also recommend the book The Curated Closet if you want to overhaul your wardrobe and think about your own style at this new stage in your life. I've recently wanted to make my wardrobe a bit more mature now I'm in my early thirties and everything I owned was from my early twenties. It's a great book for thinking about your style and I'd highly recommend it

  • @AmyLStLouis

    Oh Yes! I feel the same as you! I get so overwhelmed whenever I'm trying to declutter. I usually end up just rearranging the clutter from one one room to another room! Then I feel frustrated because I've accomplished absolutely nothing! I definitely understand how you are feeling :-)

    You're not alone in your journey. I gained weight recently, also, so I have clothes from two different "seasons" of life, and it makes me feel guilty after all the downsizing I had done before. We have to be gentle with ourselves, especially in this crazy time. Thanks for being genuine and sharing your life.

    Would love a closet declutter video! Always enjoy your videos!

    Loving this real take on decluttering! Thanks for sharing 💚 Yes to a wardrobe decluttering video (please) 🙂
    I will definitely need to take some notes because my last decluttering video was hopeless (apparently I couldn’t film on the day 😂)

  • @lindatait5326
    @lindatait5326 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Always love a declutter video! It was interesting to see that, despite the fact I am considerably older than you, your game collection from your childhood is full of games I used to have. Keep on keeping on, you’ll get there xx

  • @rachelsteggle6930
    @rachelsteggle6930 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes to a clothes decluttering video! I think everyone’s concepts of minimalism is different so just because you have more clothes than someone else doesn’t mean you aren’t a minimalist. Btw, I loved that ka plunk game too when I was young!

  • @polyamorousduo4622
    @polyamorousduo4622 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would love to see another de-cluttering video! I love watching your videos, you have a very relaxing aura. ♥️♥️

  • @robynloveschocolate
    @robynloveschocolate 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you for making such an honest video. Like you said, so many videos show the speedy process of getting rid of things and having this perfect life, yet reality is never really like that.
    I lived in London last year and after coming back to Canada in december I've gone through my room and got rid of quite a lot. Being away from your things for a year and then seeing them again with new eyes really motivated me to get rid of things that arent "me" anymore, or things I was just holding on to cause it was easier to do that than to declutter.
    I look forward to seeing your next videos Kay, hope you're well 😊 🧡

  • @LizzieDeanMakes

    We are still unpacking and decluttering from moving back into our little house - I really feel you on the mentally making something a bigger job than it is! It’s exhausting and when you have health issues you really do need to take breaks and not over tax your body and mind - but then it’s so hard to relax when everywhere you look you can see things that need doing 🤦🏼‍♀️ xxx

    • @LizzieDeanMakes
      @LizzieDeanMakes 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Feeling good in your clothes is so important to everything else in life - we almost dress up to be the character we want to be even as adults - so your style does change depending on your stage in life, your mood, your health etc. Feeling frumpy is super hard when you already feel unwell as it just brings your mood and self esteem down even more, so a little cash investment in some new kegs that suit your new shape and mentality is totally worthwhile. I would love to see what capsule wardrobe you come up with! Mine is currently a breast-feeding wardrobe and I had to get rid of most of my clothes post pregnancy as I would never fit in them again or they just felt like they belonged to a stranger. I got most of my nursing tops and things donated by other mums in my local area after putting out a request on Facebook and now I feel like I can actually get dressed of a day xxx

    Would loooove a clothing declutter video!!
    Don't worry about people who say you're not a minimalist. You are as long as you have the mindset and you decide to be a minimalist ;)
    I too have too many clothes at the moment. That's mainly because I want to get more wear out of them and I don't want to donate them as they're not in super good condition. So I assume they would get thrown away which is such a waste, I don't want that. Struggles of an environmentalist haha!
    Loved how real the video was, thank yooou :)

  • @r_7855
    @r_7855 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Those games give me so much nostalgia! My sister and I absolutely LOVED playing Downfall (it was called Slotter in Germany). A big yes to more decluttering videos! I really enjoy them, not mainly because of the end results, but because of the thought processes decluttering makes you go through. So don't worry about not being on your A game :) Also, I just wanna say that I really appreciated what you said about clothes and gaining weight and how your focus was on how clothes should make you feel good about yourself and that sometimes means finding new ones 💛

    Minimalism is different for everyone. We change as time goes by and minimalism and decluttering are journeys not a destination

  • @maike2356
    @maike2356 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    A clothing decluttering video would be really nice :) And I totally get what you're saying about minimalism... I experience the same things. We go through life, we go through our personal processes, different seasons (in ourselves and literally) and our clothes and the things we own are changing and 'moving' with us, like waves almost.. things come, things go, sometimes the balance is there, sometimes it doesn't feel right at all. Sometimes everything has its own place, sometimes nothing seems to be in the right place.. and so on. It's a process... let's leave it at that :-) And I recognise my own process in your process and that feels nice. Good luck on your journey! You're doing great and I'm sure you'll find your balance again! Love from the Netherlands

    LOL, relatable. Wow, Kerplunk! I used to play that at my grandma's house. Cadoo was so fun, too. The way the guitars are leaning against the wall makes me nervous. I'd love to see more of your wardrobe process! I'm in a similar position with my clothes. Minimalism looks different in different seasons of life, and that's okay.

  • @spirou55
    @spirou55 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

  • @katjam8672
    @katjam8672 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yes I would love to see your journey. Also how you deal with body changes. I've gained weight and I feel like people in TH-cam only show their wardrobe once they lost weight..

  • @linneaandthecoffee

    @sarahfaulkner4646 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I would love to see a clothing decluttering video! I've realized that I've accumulated way more clothes than I need the past couple of years and am slowly going through my wardrobe too. Two sustainable and ethical clothing brands that I love are Pact and Fair Indigo!

    Hey, I don't know how far you are in developing that second bedroom, but I have a totally unsolicited suggestion so take it or leave it... instead of doing just a guest bedroom, have a dual function guest room? Like, have a daybed in there, but also have a desk and a workspace; since you guys have a business it might be nice to have an "office" in your home with a desk and some shelves/storage drawers to keep all the stuff for your business. And then when guests come over, there's still the daybed for them to use, and you can even use it if you want to work in bed but not your sleeping bed (there's some studies that show that if you do work in the bed you sleep in, it can make your brain associate bed with work and then it will disrupt your sleep). Maybe that's an idea that would serve you?

  • @haileytodd6483
    @haileytodd6483 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm not good at capsule wardrobes at all, but there's a lot of resources on youtube and online to help you organise one (if you're more diligent than I am!!). Good luck with it! And you're right, we need clothes we feel good in, no matter our situation :)
    Have a great day!!

    Kay! I am so excited for you guys and your cottage. It’s just gorgeous, cute, and has so much good character. So..I am 45 and my Mom used to play Ker Plunk with me when I was a kid. It was actually hers when she was a teen! It was one of my favorites. That game has been around forever. My Dad used to play Monopoly with me. We would have to leave it out on the table for a week because our games would last so long!

    Yas for organisation, I had a burst of energy last week and ended up moving all the furniture in my room and then I hated it as it was so close the door so ended up moving it back lol. Can't wait to see your wardrobe declutter, went through mine recently and I have 3 bags of donations with books, clothes and bags. About 3 shelves worth of books went to my neighbour and then some went to charity. But it felt good as I am a book lover so I tend to have to many books as I have 3 bookshelves and then some stacked on my wardrobe shelves lol. But everything does feel better when its organised and has a place at least :) :) It is great that you have a loft space though so you can put the things you don't need straight away out of sight :) :) Also have a look at People Tree, Komodo and Thought Clothing, Thought has a lot of variety for sustainable clothing and the prices are really reasonable as well :) :)
