Hi Everyone!
I hope you all are living your best life! 🙌🏼Thank you so much for spending some of your time with me! This video is all about decluttering! It’s a job that never ends, at least for me it doesn’t! 🙃
I know my voice sounds a little rough in the video! I’ve been battling quite a cough! Thanks for being with me through the ups and downs! ☺️
Glad to see you are feeling better! great work as always!
Thank you so much, Bo! I’m hoping the worst is over!!
Someone will be thrilled to get your beautiful decluttered decor items-Especially the pillows ❣️
That’s what I hope! 🤍
Glad you made it!!
Happy that I was able to get the decluttering and organizing done as well as the video! Thanks so much for watching!
This was awesome. You are so inspiring 💛🌻💛🌻💛🌻
Thank you Sondra 🥹 That means more than you know!
I hope you are feeling better! Light decluttering makes so much sense. That way things don't get too out of hand. Even though your life is very different than mine (I'm single, gay, no children, live in a small apartment, I don't have any family stuff to speak of as it was all sold / given away and I had no option to keep anything), you continue to show me new and different ways to look at my home space and my life. I truly appreciate all that you do and all that you share. Be blessed.
Oh my goodness, Matt, yours is the second comment that has brought me to tears. I have always known that we are different, yet I feel we are so similar in so many ways and our thinking. I am so glad with all of your wisdom, that I can bring something new to you. I love that. We can all share here and learn new ways of looking at things. I appreciate you sharing and being such a positive force here at my big tidy up.. 🫶🏼
@@MyBigTidyUp I am grateful for what we have in common. And I am grateful for the community you have created here. It is such an oasis in a sometimes crazy world.
Nice haul D. A new pic of your mom is a nice sentiment ❤
Thank you Kelly! I loved the new photo idea too! 🥰
I have a cold/cough too. Love this video as I love all of them. Happy weekend beautiful!
Awww thanks Lea! I hope you get to feeling better soon!! 🫶🏼
Those decluttering muscles are strong!! Great job! 💖
Thank you so much Ann, I am definitely trying! 💪🏼Thanks so much for being here!
I had bought soft pet carriers in hopes of replacing the hard plastic ones I had been using. Took the cats to the vet yesterday and the soft ones worked out great. Went to declutter the hard ones and saw a scarf that I never wear so that was added to the carriers. While in the same storage closet, I also found a bowling pin that my oldest got from a birthday party probably 15 years ago. It had been in the closet since and I'm sure he doesn't even remember having it. That went too.
Thought I was done and remembered an elderly lady from church brought over a 48" fiber optic Christmas tree a few months back that she swore one of my sons wanted years back if she ever wanted to get rid of it. Son wasn't home to ask so I took it. Found out that my son never wanted the tree and I certainly didn't so that got added to the small pile I had going.
I love it when one decluttered item suddenly turns into four (technically five because it was two pet carriers)!!
Good morning Kelly! That is awesome! Thanks so much for sharing that! It really is a snowball effect!! I actually like it when decluttering happens that way! It’s less stressful! Who would’ve thought getting rid of the pet carriers would lead to a great declutter!! Thank you so much for watching and sharing that with me, it encourages me to go snoop around some other areas in my home and see what I might find!! 🤗
Sage advice from your daughter! 🙂 Glad you are feeling better. ❤
Thank you, Bradly! Definitely still not 100% but I hope I’m on the upswing! 🙏🏼🤞🏼 thank you so much for tuning in!! 👍🏼
I understand exactly how you feel about your mom's dishes. Just this year, I donated an entire china set to our local second hand store. The set was a gift from my grandmother. It was rarely used and sat in the china cabinet for 42 years. Once I had finally made the decision to donate them, I felt better. I hope they went to a home where they were used to make great memories around the table.
Hello Nancy! I’m sure you do understand! I always have trouble parting with those sentimental keepsakes. I must say, I have never regretted anything I have let go of…yet. 😊 the thing is I just try to remember, just because they’re not in my home any longer, doesn’t mean they aren’t making memories for someone else.. thanks so much for watching
Hi. I agree with your Daughter. My memories are in my heart and my mind. I keep very few things.
That’s wonderful, Carolyn! I am trying to become that way myself. 🤍
You have encouraged me so much to start small, but keep the decluttering and organizing going. You are just precious ❤ Thanks for all you do.
Oh Shannon, thank you so very much! 🥹 That means the world to me! I get discouraged too, and comments like yours keep me going! 🤍
Good morning my friend !!! OMGOSH!!! Someone snuck pillows into your declutter pile 😬🤪 This was a fabulous share . Inspired ✅& motivated✅ I put those scent beads ( like in the vacuum )in the bottom of my kitchen trash can 🤯WOW it smells nice every time I remove the trash bag & when I walk bye. I clean it & spray it but I still always smell something , the beads worked ! Also put an open little cup of them in the linen closet . I may be addicted to them now . I love enablers ( YOU) 😊 I hope your feeling better , you sounded a little raspy , maybe my speakers or imagination . Unfortunately someone tripped on a fan cord yesterday & ruined their back . I wont be doing anything today . And yes, I am the one who put the cord there, avoided it for years until yesterday LOL Watch most of this last night, then I conked out 😴 Have a wonderful weekend , sending healing prayers your way & HUGS! 🥰🥰
Good morning! Yes ma’am, scent beads for the win! I am happy to be your enabler! Put them everywhere I say!!! How’s that for enabling?!!? Lol!
You are very observant. Yes, I am raspy! I actually told my husband that I probably should’ve said something about it in the video during the voiceover! I think I sound like I had been gargling gravel! 😆 unfortunately, I still sound that way. I hope I’m on the upswing, but some days I feel like I’m going backwards.
I am sorry to hear about your fall! That pesky cord ! How dare it reach out and grab you like that?! Please take care of yourself! If you don’t, we may have to start wrapping you in bubble wrap!!
Thanks so much for watching and have a happy weekend, friend
@@MyBigTidyUp 🤣🤣 bubble wrap . OH NO I've turned into that person that should be bubble wrapped . I used to be the person suggesting it HAHAHA
Hi Dee Dee! About those dishes that were your Mom's....my Mom also had that set. I am 99% sure they were sold as a promotion at grocery stores back in the day. Each week another piece of the collection was featured for shoppers to buy. I don't really think grocery stores do that any more....at least not in my town. OK where'd you wind up putting the fly swatter😂! We have one hanging on the back door😂. Yes it's gross there too but you have to put them somewhere handy!❤
Good morning Jean! Thank you so much for sharing! That does sound familiar, you might be right maybe that’s where those dishes came from. I am not sure, but that sounded so familiar and rang a bell with me when you mentioned it.
You were right about the flyswatter they are nasty, but they need to be convenient! My husband has one in the garage and I hung the one that was in the drawer right by the laundry room sink, but I like your idea of hanging by the back door! Thanks so much for watching and sharing!
Great declutter, DeDe! I'm happy your placemats came out of the wash better! 😅
Thanks Eeeek! They are perfect, but much better! I’m glad I was able to save them!
Hi DeDe, you were speaking to my heart today. I, too, have some of my mom’s China that I can’t seem to part with. I felt like I was honoring my mom by keeping it. But you are so correct - I can honor her in other ways. You never cease to amaze me with your declutters. You are such an expert at it! Looks great and thanks for nudge to let sentimental clutter go!🩷🩷🩷
Oh my goodness Jennifer your comment made me weepy. I know you definitely get it! My daughter’s words really hit home to me. I do feel that I will look at sentimental clutter differently now. thank you so much for watching and I’ll be thinking good thoughts for you as you declutter your sentimental items. 🫶🏼
Good morning! Great job as usual. It must feel good. I recently got rid of all my “fancy” plates. Stuff handed down and stuff I got from my bridal shower 28 years ago. We don’t use them. Holidays we use throw away. We’re too many people to wash all that. Same with glass. I kept a few. We use plastic for that also. I bought 8 everyday plates at Aldi and that’s we use everyday for just us. I’m over the multiple sets of dinnerware. Thank you for sharing your day with us. Have a great weekend. See you next week!😘
Hi Grace! Great job on getting rid of all of your fancy plates and glasses! I am not quite there yet, I still probably have too many dishes, little by little I’m whittling away my stash! I’m like you, I’m just over having things that are not getting used! Thank you so much for watching and have an awesome weekend!
Great video!!!! You decluttered quite a bit Dede.
Thank you! I was happy to downsize !!
Welllll... there she is, ... And good to see you... ! I trust you're feeling better, my friend... 😊
Looks like you have a few things in mind to get done !
Will update per usual ! 🙂😊
UPDATE TIME 🙂😉.....
....Inspiration and Motivation, indeed ! 77 ..?!! 77 Items ...wow!
I say that's not just " a light De- clutter ", lol....if I do a ' light De- clutter ..' ..I might get 30 Items , lol !
The Dishes that belonged to your Mother are pretty , but if you didn't actually use them...you might take a photo ofvthem, just as a Rememberance, and you could add it to a Photo Book with photos of her... just a thought.
I adore Vintage Dishes ...( duhhh.lol ! ) of all kinds, so I do have one set ,but it actually gets used . ( Nipon China ,with gokd trim ) .There are quite a number of Salad plates, so two went to Baby ( the Kitty) for to dine on, lol. Which ,those are always washed seperate ,never go in the Cabinet with the other ones.lol.
I have a liking for the Placemats, as well.. and Tablecloths. ... But I am now sort of picky ,lol, with what qualifies as a purchase . I have To say that I was glad that the one Placemats made the cut, because those are really nice..! Thry look great. 👌🏻
I'm sure you feel that you got quite a bit accomplished and you certainly did ... you always provide a way to Inspire us to start working on things that need doing... ! Your efforts are so appreciated, and the other thing is that you have such a good Variety of Videos ... its why I often re- watch them ! 😊
Thank you ,Dede, for taking the Time ,Effort and Energy to do a Friday Video , I commend you ...I can only tell a little residual of " being under the Weather " ... and that you'll take it easy this Weekend if possible, my friend. ..Take care of you ,and Mr. Husband, so that youre back to 100 percent. 🙂😊🙏🏻🤗🤍
Yay, my friend is here with her update!! it is funny, but as I was decluttering the dishes, I actually thought of you. I knew you would appreciate them, and I knew they would be a hard thing for you to let go of as well. I also know, without you telling me, that you do appreciate placemats and tablecloths! I don’t know that anyone can do lace, linen, and vintage better than you! When I see vintage items, I always think, would this be something she would like? If it is timeless and elegant, the answer is usually yes!
Thank you for your concerns about myself and Mr. tidy ups well-being. It seems like we take one step forward and then one step back.. I am hoping we are on the upswing. I knew my voice was a bit gravelly as I did my voice overs, but I knew if I waited until I had my voice completely back to normal, I would never get the video done. I sure do appreciate you watching and I appreciate you taking the time to always let me know what you think!
Great job….i need to start….😊❤️
Thank you! It is a job that never seems to end for me!
I wish I could be that confident to get rid of “stuff”. 😢
Hi Mary! I appreciate that, but hey , I don’t always feel very confident. I’ve been trying not to second-guess myself, but I must admit, sometimes I do. Just take baby steps, Mary and it will all be fine. 🤍 thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment.🤗
My husband and I ...let 2 sets of china go last year.someone bought them that has a booth at an antique store..our girls said they didn't want them and told us to let them go
Hi Donna! That’s good that you let them go. It definitely is hard to let things like that go, at least for me it is. I am glad I did it. It’s one less thing that my children will have to take care of. Thanks so much for taking the time to share!
