I’m glad they respectfully folded and put donations in a box. I can’t stand to see people throw clothes donations in a trash bag like trash! They arrive a wrinkled, crumpled mess at the donation center. Show some respect for the nice clothes and the donation center peoples!
I totally agree! Thanks so much for your comments.
Honestly, this is exactly the type of content I want to spend time watching. Family coming togather to help each other and being gentle, because it's the right thing to do and it's how we should remind each other to act. Love!
Awwww - thanks so much!!! We certainly love our Mom!❤️❤️❤️ Thanks so much for watching!
What a beautiful thing to do for your Mother, girls.
Thanks! We loved this time together ❤️
My mom was a teacher and retired in 1995. My mom isn’t with us anymore ,she sadly passed away in 2023 at 89 years old. I love that you are helping your mom, she is adorable.🥰 ❤❤❤❤
Thank you! We love our mom SO Much❤️. Im so sorry to hear that your mom has passed…I’m sure this has been a difficult year for you 🥲
Same here, lost my Mom in 2009. My Mom kept all the class photos. After she died, I uploaded those onto the school's Facebook page. I got a lot of positive comments about that. You might give that a try, to honor your Mom. The nice comments you get in return are heartwarming.
I want to hug your mom! 💓 The two of you are so loving, caring and respectful of each other's feelings. She so reminds me of my mom. Their items are so neat and tidy and, after a while we don't see the items until you put it someplace else...like piled on the bed. The Class of 1994 T-shirt is amazing! My mom also had many USA shirts and holiday items. Great Job, Mom!
You are so kind. I will certainly give Mom a hug for you! And yes, she rediscovered several things in the process. Thanks for watching and Hugs to your mom, too!
I love this video and the way you all gathered together and went through all her clothes. It got easier as you went.
I’m 76 and have always bought a lot of clothes and a lot never wore. It did make me feel good to donate so some one else could enjoy them.
I also was watching some videos of older ladies. One said to shop your closet. It’s been awhile and I found three pretty dressy tops that I’ve only wore one of them once in ten years.I went to the Drs office and she kept saying how pretty I looked! It felt new to me and I had to laugh because I should of been wearing a lot of my clothes that are just sitting in my closet and give some away for someone else to enjoy!
You’re a very special family! I felt like I was right there with you! Thank you and may Gods bless you all!
I love the way you bought your mother two new pants! So sweet!
I’m going to sort my jewelry too! 🙏❤️🕊🌸🦋
Aw... this was so gentle, sweet to do for your mom! Mom you look good in your new clothes !! You should be very proud of your decluttering that you did...and you did it so well ! I am 72 yrs old and when I retired 2 years ago, I started the decluttering journey. Oh my goodness, I do know how you feel!!... But mom l am with you I feel great now too!! 💜...🦋
Oh! Thanks so much for sharing about your decluttering journey! I will make sure Mom sees your comments. She will love that! Congrats to YOU for being brave and starting to declutter. It can be so freeing! I really appreciate you watching and commenting. Hope to hear from you again in other videos!
❤😀
That shirt with the signatures can easily be put in a memory/shadow box and mounted on the wall .
Yes! That is a good idea - thanks for sharing!
Wow! thank you for showing how to be gentle with decluttering.
I am a 63 years old minimalist for over 8 years, but I have to admit you have so much patience. Nice to witness.
With ❤and Gratitude 🙏
Thanks so much for your kind words. I must admit I’m not always this patient with my husband! 😉
Your Mum is a lucky woman having such caring daughters.
🥰 Awww-thanks so much! We are all SO Blessed to have each other! ❤️🙏😊
Apart from the genuinely loving and warm interaction between a mother and her daughters, the way you talk through the decisions is so helpful. Great questions and reasoning for each decision.
We certainly love our mom VERY MUCH! Thanks so much for your kind words! I really appreciate it!
Your mom did a wonderful job on decluttering the clothes in her closet. Love that you put it in rainbow order too.
She certainly did! My sister Amy did the arrangement by color 😊
Good job MOM !
You haved blessed many with your donations ❤️
Thanks so much! ❤️
So much better!!! Your momma did great. Can’t wait for the winter closet. Yall seem very kind and supportive of each other.
And I love that Jean dress hanging up!!
We were all so proud of her! And I’m looking forward to helping with her winter closet too. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Always love to hear from viewers. ❤️
the hangers complete the job, lots of work but worth it. the first pass is always the hardest.
I agree - thanks so much for watching!
Calm and relaxed atmosphere so good for decluttering especially with person who accumulated stuff for years. Sometimes people helping (including me) are to excited/energetic and can overhelmi decluttering person even more.
Thanks!
There are so many de-cluttering videos out there - yours is so refreshing & different. It's geared to everyone of any age even though all the steps & advice are the same on every TH-cam video. The fact you had support from your sisters so it wasn't left up to just you to get the job done, your mum participated in the process & there was no pressure on her to make an immediate choice on something is nice. & she admitted it was hard at first which a lot of people can relate too. And your mum has plenty of space to hang different clothes for different seasons is a bonus - not everyone does. And the word "hoarding" wasn't mentioned which I hate. Yes some people have a serious problem with it but this was project was accomplished in the right way that everyone could live with. Hopefully 🤞🙏 my wardrobe will look the same. Regards 🇮🇪
Oh, thank you so much. I really appreciate your kind words.
I love that your mama accepted your help. Beautiful job!
Thank you so much! We certainly enjoyed this day together. Thanks for watching and commenting!
So nice to see mom smile at the end. It’s obvious she’s happy with the results.
Yes she is! Thanks so much!
this is fun! I usually tell people to put sentimental items (e.g. tshirts you don't wear but want to keep) in a storage box, not in with the clothes you wear every day in the closet or dresser. This way they're stored and safe, but don't take up space in the areas where functional items are stored :)
Thanks for watching and for sharing your tips. I'm certainly hoping we will be finetuning her closet even further in the future. :-)
What a sweet daughters you are. I love how you let her tell her stories and gently proceed. What a doll she is!
Awww. Thanks so much! We love our mom more than we can say! ❤️ thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Sweet gathering of you, your mom and your sisters! And your mom looks great in her new jeans/pants! ❤
Thank you!! 😊 We certainly had a great time together. And I agree - Mom looks great in her new, proper size pants!
She saved all the beautiful colors! Beautiful, curated closet. And, yes, two new pairs of practical pants.
Thank you! She is really enjoying her new closet - and her new pants! Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
I’m so excited to see you all help your mother declutter with her assistance. My siblings and wanted to help my mother declutter her closets, however, she wouldn’t let us. Now my mom is dealing with dementia and she definitely won’t allow us to get rid of anything (knowingly 😉). I have to sneak things out gradually while she’s at the Senior Center. My mom has lost a lot of weight as well, so most of her clothes are too big. She has a lot of fancy outfits that she refuses to give away. She said she’s not dead yet! It’s so overwhelming for her to pick out an outfit, so she has the tendency to where the same thing several days in a row. Her short term memory is really bad so she doesn’t recall wearing the outfit several times. I applaud you all for simplifying your mother’s closet and life. I’ll keep trying. It’s been extremely difficult to see my mother transform to a totally different person. 😢
Oh my goodness…. I’m so sorry to hear of your mom’s struggles…and your struggle to help her. I cannot imagine the heartache you are feeling…. 😥 Sending hugs and prayers your way for better days. 🙏
My best friend of 50 plus years is reacting the very same way in her journey with dementa.Your comments help me to realize I need to let go of what I can't control and focus on my own declutter projects while I can.
Yes, I have cleaned out my closet. You are lucky to have your mother. I have lost my mother and dad. I enjoy you all working together.
Thanks for sharing about your progress. And I’m so sorry you have lost your parents. I know you treasure your memories with them. I certainly count my blessings every day 🙏❤️🙏
Turn the hangers backwards& as she wears them turn hanger right way, then she can see what hasn't been worn. and keep a donate box in there. it she tries on and realizes its not comfortable, just donate.
Good tip! Thanks for commenting!
@@theroadtosimple new subber, i just came across you when scrolling. :)
So glad you found me!
Love the mother/daughter relationship. We used to do this with my mom and have so much fun.
It was a fun time with Mom - thanks so much for watching and commenting.
I need to pull everything I have out of the wardrobe. And go through each and every piece of clothing I have as I have way too much. My mum only had exactly what she needed and never wanted much. Now I realise mum had the right approach.
You can do it! “Mother knows best!” Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts with everyone.
Your Mom is a sweetheart and it’s so nice that you’re helping her in a gentle way. ❤
Thank you so much! We love her more than I can say!❤️
Since I retired a little over a year ago, I have helped my 83 year old mom declutter a lot of stluff from her home but clothes didn't get decluttered too soon because she loves her clothes and was very resistant to decluttering them until later on. She had a lot of long shirts that she didn't need to wear anymore because she couldn't wear high heels and there was a good chance she could have tripped on the shirts. But she finally let go of about 4 trash bags full of shirts and blouses last summer. Prior to that she let go of about 3 trash bags full. She was also running out of space to store all of her clothes. She was buying more and not getting rid of much.
Yes, it is a difficult thing to do - and certainly different levels of difficulty for different people. Glad to hear that you are helping your mom to declutter as she is ready to do so. It took a little while for my mom to be ready to start, too. Thanks for sharing about your experience with your mother - I really appreciate that! And thanks so much for watching.
YAY! No more wire hangers! That's always an improvement.
Yes! But it is an adjustment for her to get use to things not easily sliding on and off 😊
She needs to get velvet hangers. Let me tell you a trick that helps out in the brain that helps with decluttering. Always lay a white sheet on your bed. When you lay stuff on the sheet and you start to declutter, you see white underneath instead of a pattern and it tricks the brain into thinking hey... I'm getting somewhere faster. if you see a pattern under the clothes as you get to the end it just looks more jumbled. If you see a white sheet, then you have something to look forward to and it looks clean. Hope this helps. Also, at the end .. COUNT the items that are donated. This makes the person feel better about giving it away instead of keeping it and never wearing it.
Great idea about the white sheet! 👍 Thanks for sharing! We did get her some black velvet hangers, and she loves them!
PLEASE ASK your sister where did she get her shirt? I want one just like that. You, your mom, sisters are so SWEET!!! She has some very nice clothes.
Thanks for your sweet comments! Amy is wearing a shirt I gave her from my closet last year 😊 I think it probably came from Marshall’s. I really liked it too and wore it for a couple years - but then I noticed I tended to leave it hanging there and not wearing it…. So it went in my donate box. I usually let my sisters look thru my dominations before I take them anywhere. 😀
I helped my Mom do that 5 years ago when she lived in Florida. I moved her back to Ohio 3 years ago and she passed away in January 2024. I miss her so very much. I was very close to her. You two remind me of her and I. God Bless you. Enjoy her as much as you can cause when they are no longer here you will miss her. 😢
Oh my - I’m so so sorry for your loss. My sisters and our Mom are all very close. I agree - time is so precious. We are So Blessed. 🙏 Thanks for sharing about your mom - and God Bless You, too. ❤️
Ah, what a beautiful gentle family, your mum did so well blessing some other ladies with those beautiful clothes!
Thanks so much for your kind words! I will pass them along to Mom.
Thank you for helping her
It is easy to help someone we love So Much!❤️
Pulling them all out would certainly make me get rid of lots due to the sheer effort of choosing & putting things back 😂 I need to do it that way, instead of just looking through what's in the wardrobe
You’ve got a good point there! 😀Thanks for watching!
Loved the pace of this video and listening to mom's opinion on why and what to keep. I admired the respect shown.
Thanks for your kind words! It is important to be gentle when helping others declutter - especially the first time.
She is a lovely person. Please help her more ❤
We agree! She is an exceptional human being! We love her so much and will always be around to help her ❤️❤️❤️
I'm overwhelmed too. She had everything hung so nice. She could have tried a different approach. Pulling all her favorites out & putting them on the bed, till she had about half the wardrobe on the bed. Then put all the stuff that's left in one rack & hang her favorites back on the cleared rack. Then deal with the not as favorite rack. Maybe keep some things or just box it all to go. She's got a ton of nice clothes, she'll never wear them all. I think it's easiest to deal by picking all your favorites 1st because that part is easy & gives you perspective!
Good advice! Thanks for sharing.
👍👍👍👍 Y'all are all so sweet. You gals have a great mom. Need to take her to a day at the spa and all of you pamper yourselves! ♥️ Taller Teresa, Waco Texas
Thanks so much - and a spa day sounds wonderful!
Almost halfway through watching this lovely conversation with subtitles, an item of clothing was relegated to the "donut" box. 😊
🤣 So Funny! 😂 Love it!
❤️
Thanks for watching!
It looks great. Some velvet hangers would make it look even better.
You are right, and we did get her velvet hangers! There is one quick shot of them at the end of the video 😀. Thanks for watching and commenting!
you all did well !
Thanks so much!
So lovely to watch. What a gorgeous, kind bunch of ladies.❤
Awww - thanks for watching. We certainly all love each other and are SO BLESSED!
You have such a sweet mother. I enjoyed watching the process.
Yes - see is a wonderful mother! Thanks so much for watching.
I truly enjoyed watching your video. I have two sisters also. You all are so blessed to still have your mom!! I lost mine when I was 19. I lool forward to watching more of your videos. I am also a teacher and today is my first day of summer break!! I believe I have many clothing items that can be donated. I will add de-clutter closet to my list of things to do!! Thank you!!
Sending my thanks to you for watching, AND for being a teacher. That is such an important and noble profession. Enjoy your summer break, and I hope you find time to declutter and discover the feeling of being lighter when you do so. And yes, my sisters and I are SO BLESSED! I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your mother at such a young age.
This was such a wonderful video to watch. You were so very respectful helping
You are so kind. Thanks so much for watching and commenting 😊
Lovely interaction between mum and daughter.
Can I suggest you buy some quality hangers. Dry cleaning wire hangers are the worst possible foundation for hanging clothes long term. I’d suggest flocked hangers that are absolutely flat but sturdy.
Thanks! We did purchase new black velvet hangers for her the next day 😊 There is a quick shot of them at the end of the video. That really helped complete the project, and she loves them! Thanks so much for watching and sharing your thoughts.
Take a picture of sentimental items and put in an album to look at and enjoy, then toss
Thanks for sharing!
My Mother would love alllll of that, but she lives in Brazil and I love in Ireland for 20 years. She was here last summer and my elderly friend donated a lot of things to her. She was sooo happy! If she wants to send it to Brazil she would love that, but the price might be not ok.
So sorry, but her items have already been donated locally. That must be hard for you two - living so far apart.
Just discovered your channel by chance. I loved this video for a lot of reasons. Primarily because your Mom is funny. My late Mom taught school (K-1) and kept "too much stuff" that pertained to looking fun or silly for her classes.
I grew up in a house with Mom, her folks, and all of us had ONE closet, a door-sized area that we kept clothes for all weather! How did we all in the US get to so many clothes? LOL. I've gone through mine a few times. Our women in the family's rule? If it's not flattering anymore, donate it. Thank you for bringing up if the item was a gift, don't feel guilty. Great tip.
Love to you all - hug your Mom and have fun together. Mine's been gone since '09, but her funny spirit stays behind. She made her own Mother's Day cards, photographed with silly outfits each year. The inspiration for this was the book, "Mother" by Judy Olausen. I think you'd all get a kick out of it; it's very funny.
Thanks...Christie/Angry Senior
So glad you stumbled upon my channel! Loved hearing all about your mom! And one closet for your entire family! 🫨 My mom dressed up as a pilgrim each Thanksgiving for her 2nd grade class and made her own ET and Mini-Mouse costumes. Teachers are such creative and special people!! ❤️Thanks so much for watching and sharing!
@@theroadtosimple Yes, the good ones are very creative. I'm sure your Mom falls into this category. My Mom made "Easter bonnets" out of construction paper - and they were tied with yarn. Each child decorated the construction paper as he or she saw fit. The big "bunny" ears stood up.
In our family, it was one closet like that per bedroom, except the master bedroom where my grandparents each had their own closet.
I hope you look into that funny book I mentioned. I think your Mom would find it funny. Take care.
I love your mom❤️❤️❤️
To know her is to love her!!!❤️. Thanks so much for your kind words!
Awww that looks so fun. I would love to have such a loving family time..your mom looks so kind and fun loving. Blessings❤❤
Thanks so much. She IS super loving and kind. We are truly blessed!❤️
A statistic is that we wear 20% of our clothing 80% of the time.
Yep - I believe it! Once you seriously declutter several times you’ll find that the 20% goes up because you only have your favorites to choose from. 😊 Thanks so much for watching hung and commenting!
Hi,wish we all could hug your mom 🤗 I know I would give her a big hug 🤗. I know how she sorta feels…I’m age (76) and have a YT Channel ( Beauty Over 70 With Lea ) and at my age I’m downsizing more and more and it’s really hard to let go but once you do,it frees up the clutter in the and in your mind.Thanks for such a heart warming video ! Lea
Thank you Lea. I'll give Mom a hug for you!
Great progress. I cut way back on clothes by turning the hangers backwards on January 1st. Whenever I wore and washed something I put it back the right way. At the end of the year anything still on a backwards hanger was donated. After three years of doing that I only have about a third of the clothes.
That is a great way to do it!!! Thanks for watching and sharing!
Your mom has some serious style. That yellow trimmed suit jacket was stunning
Ahhh! Love your comment! I will be sure to share it with her! ❤️
Conjuring up Joan Crawford: Please get rid of metal hangers! White plastic hangers help immeasurably to pretty up the closet. And you can buy some with the velvet cover to hang slippery fabrics on. Additionally, I have white plastic hangers meant for straps (camis, nightgowns) that would slip off a smooth hanger. This is a great encourager to me, since we moved 10 years ago and I haven’t de-cluttered since!
Oops! I wrote this before seeing the end of the video! The black hangers are a great improvement! Good job!
If you watch until the very end you will see that we purchased black velvet hangers for her the next day and changed them all out. So much nicer! And we and treated her to 2 new pair of pants that are her current size 😀 Good luck with your decluttering - you can do it!
Just the sweetest most uplifting video❤❤🎉Such a great job. And y'all are all so loving and kind hearted. God bless you all!!!🙏🏻❤️❤️🥰
Awww - you are so kind! God Bless You, too!
That was fun. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Working on my whole house. Enjoyed the support and tips
You got this!
Thank you both for being an inspiration. Just the positive motivation needed to go through things I have. 😊
You are so welcome! You can do it, too! Thanks for watching!
I am encouraged to get it done!
So WONDERFUL & SWEET the way you all come together to make it happen...one piece at a time.
Lucky Mom to have such LOVE in her golden years!
You can do it too! Thanks so much for your kind words. We are all TRULY BLESSED! 🙏❤️😍
Your mom is so beautiful! Please tell her that your TH-cam sister said so ♥️. Enjoyed the video so much!
Thank you! Will do!
Good job. The new hangers are a nice touch.
Thank you - she is enjoying them too!
Great job mom! Maybe you can give mom some sturdy hangers for her birthday.
Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
I love that idea🩵
Beautiful video!! Thank you for sharing this with us!!
Thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed it!
Your Mom did a great job…you girls are the best daughters!!
Thanks so much!
Love how you are patient with your Mom. I give away clothes that I have not used for a year and it feels good. Less things, less stress
I agree - less things - less stress! Thanks for watching and commenting.
You all were so sweet to your amazing mom. Blessing in your day. ❤️
You are so kind! She certainly is amazing and we love her soooo much!❤️ Blessings to you, too!
From one teacher to another,I knew she was a teacher before I saw the July 4 vest! ❤
Great job letting go! Your spring closet looks so manageable now! 🎉
Thanks so much! I will make sure mom sees your sweet comment as a fellow teacher ❤️
That’s SO sweet that her daughters are helping her:)❤👏💪💜
We love her so much!!! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great video & inspiring! I love the viewpoint & seeing the logical decisions & learning as you go along from making one decision to another.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
I did this with my Mom in law🥰 what a special time
🥰 thanks for sharing!
This video was just so sweet. What a lovely family. X
Thank you so much! We love each other bunches! Thanks so much for watching.
I’m getting ready to declutter my closet
❤️❤️❤️ Yay! Please come back and tell me how it goes!
Wow great job mama 🎉
Thanks! She is the best Mom ever!!!❤️❤️❤️
Good job mom!🤗
She did do great!
Good video as always I'm sure your mom is so greatful for your help❤
Thanks Roger! Always great to hear from you!
Loved this, I have 2 sisters and a mum with hundreds of blouses, shoes and trousers. We need to help her😅
You can do it! Make a date for a family get together soon!❤️
The matching hangers made the whole closet look polished, WOW. Where did you get the hangers? Your Mom was a trooper, it's usually very difficult for the older generations to part with things, having the depression era mentality. I am excited to see some of your other videos. Great job! Hi from Central NY🌼
I agree - Mom was a real trooper! We got the slim velvet hangers at Sam’s. I think they came in a box of 50. We also picked up a few black velvet slim suit hangers (with clips for pants or skirts) at TJ Max. I left a few empty plain wire hangers in the very back back just in case she wanted to keep them - but a few days later she asked me if it was ok if she removed them. 😊. I’m really proud of her! ❤️. Thanks so much for watching!
Hi from WNY. My mom and I are struggling with this. My mom was raised in the depression era and does not want to let anything go even though they no longer fit or are worn out. It’s a challenge.
Great job ladies helping your mom!!
Thank you! We love her so much!
Bless your mom’s heart!
Thank you - and we are so blessed to have her as our mom ❤️
The trouble with keeping clothes for 20-30 years is they’re so out of date that thrift shops don’t want them.
If not places like nursing homes here take clothes, also churches that do mission trips
That is certainly true with some things. Thankfully is a free clothing organization in Mom’s community that will be able to take many of them. Thanks so much for watching.
I must disagree. Young girls are picking up older thrifted clothing like crazy. Some of these items clearly pass the vintage test.
I turned my husbands forty years of t shirts ( places he travelled, rock bands ) into a memory quilt, then our daughter bagged it for her dorm! Great conversation starter!
@@hp-cs7mx T-shirt quilts are great when there are great tshirts!
Your mum keeps her clothes so neat! I am amazed! As a person who hates ironing😂
I will certainly pass your compliments along to her! She let go of several pairs of pants because she doesn’t want to iron anything anymore. Thanks so much for watching and sharing.
Such a wholesome video 💗 I love helping my loved ones declutter as well. And it is so nice to see them shine in the things they really love 🌸
It is easy to helped those you love, right?! Thanks so much for watching and sharing about your experience.
Excellent video, thank you for posting it. M
Thanks so much for watching!
I think I would've started with the pants first. This is just so much
Thanks for sharing!
Aaaawwwww girl power all 4 of you!!!!❤❤❤❤
Thanks for your sweet comment!
Great job mom!
Thank you! I will pass your congratulations along to her! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us. What an inspiration! I decluttered my dresser drawers, now to tackle my closet. Thank you for making it fun!
Hey Carmen! Thanks for watching - and congrats on your decluttering project. Keep it going! You can do it!
I have just did the same thing. Bags of stuff clothes handbags wedding outfits etc. feel so much better
Way to go, girl! 👍
Really enjoyed watching this video. Easier than what you think, your Mom is right
I’ll tell her you agree! She was a real trooper! Thanks for your kind comments!
God bless your mom.
Thank you so much ❤️
Your Mom is beautiful; what a great job she did! I am always getting rid of items as I see that I no longer wear or like.
Thanks for your kind words. And yes, she is beautiful- both inside and out! ❤️ Kudos to YOU for staying on top of your items!! I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!
Nice!
Thanks for watching!
I just found your channel and I’m so glad I did! You all have such a sweet demeanor. I am not a clutter bug at all..except for my clothes!! So this video was inspiring. I did get rid of some clothing about 6 months ago because I moved into a much smaller place. But I need to go back through and do it again. It struck me how happy your mom looked when she walked into her closet and saw the “after”! It is amazing how we are usually happier with fewer items. Thank you ladies! I’ve subscribed so I’ll see you again! PS Your mom’s two new pairs of pants look darling on her!
I’m glad you found me too! And thanks so much for your kind words! ❤️ I’m sure you will find it a little easier each time you go through your clothes. And I agree with you 100% - true happiness comes from relationships and experiences - not THINGS! I really appreciate you taking time to watch and comment. I hope to hear from you again in other videos! 😊
I loved the video. So good to see families working together to help each other the decluttering is great to just relieve some mental clutter off the mind. I’m trying to help my sister in upstate New York. It’s kind of hard to get her to go thru and purge and organize but I know we’ll get there soon.
Thanks for watching. I agree with your comment about mental clutter, too. I hope that your sister comes to realize that sometimes it takes time to gain the courage to begin - but once you get going - it gets lots easier!
She did amazing ❤ I love how the closet turned out😊
She certainly did! She loves it! Thanks for commenting!
How fun! Great job for all you ladies! Wish I had my mom here, we would’ve had fun too
Awww. I wish you had your mom too. We really cherish our time with her ❤️. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
