Declutter Faster | Start with These 50 Things!

Where is a place you could declutter today that would improve the way you live?? ❤❤❤❤

Consider filling those extra purses/hand bags with the extra travel size toiletries you’ve collected. Add a new toothbrush, toothpaste, comb or brush and donate them to a Women’s Shelter. When I travel I try to collect those hotel items just to donate.

Hi Sweetie, I don't live in the States so I was amazed to find that people kept containers full of decor so that they could change out the decor each season and for different celebrations. I have decorations around but these are the ones that I treasure as they were given to me by family. Most people here only add decorations at Christmas time, and the amount used varies from home to home, I always thought wreaths were for funerals, but these are used a lot as home decor in the state. Really enjoyed your list, thanks for sharing, your dogs are cute by the way!!!!! 🥰

For duplicate kitchenware, donate to local womans shelter. People fleeing their homes are struggling to set up new homes. In my town we have an organisation that its sole purpose it helping people starting over. Cookware, casserole dishes, utensils, pots and pans are always greatly appreciated. My mother recently passed away and we are giving them the contents of her house. The only thing we wont pass on is her clothing. I admit she was very good at getting rid of clutter which makes it easier. It feels good to know we are passing on decent quality home goods and furniture to someone that needs it at no cost to them.

We are a family of 7 and we have two plates per person, we find this is a good amount to cover all the meals and be able to run the dishwasher at the end of the day. It's enough for company too. I definitely need to declutter mugs, it's like shoes for some people 😅 I am new to your channel, this was a great list and things I can definitely revisit decluttering.

Decluttering the yard is another one to do. I have two large aviaries that are disintegrating so I’m deconstructing them along with a broken dog house that I’ve never used. I have been taking down fences with rusty wire or rotten wood. Once my ex-hoarder moved out and the yard was cleaned up somewhat I was able to assess what else needed to go, reusing stuff where I can like piles of sand and good wood. I hate gardening but this is rewarding.

❤ A very good list. This morning, I decluttered my desk, tidied up the house and you just motivated me to start going through the linen closet. Thank you for this. Have a beautiful day.

One item I couldn’t believe I had 3 car full loads of was polystyrene in cardboard boxes. I’ve been decluttering for a number of years and only keep boxes to store my fans for summer, a few sewing machines and TVs. I decided that I only need the boxes for the fans to keep the dust off them and not the foam. Because of the mess that was made by breaking it up, I set aside a few days to break it up in my lounge and cleaned up when I finished each session. I don’t have kids or pets so it was safe to do. I also got rid of a lot of boxes and the amount of space I gained was fantastic.

We fold our socks by laying one on top of the other and then fold in half and put into the dresser in a row. It makes it very easy to see all the socks at once and keeps the tops from stretching out, plus space saving.

I just want to let you know how GRATEFUL I AM... that I came across your channel and met you. One of the best things that happened to me is KNOWING YOU. I AM SO MUCH INSPIRED. I am on my 4th year now in my decluttering journey and got rid of almost 80percent of our Clutter. But no amount of inspiration from books and other minimalist podcasts that made me literally get rid and donate the HUGE BED FURNITURE my daughter never used since she was 4 years old, now she's 18. because it's a customized hello kitty character which she loved when she was 4. with a huge price also. But she still sleeps beside me till now in another room that's why she never used it. And another thing is the HUGE painting in our living area I bought at a pricey cost too which I do not know why I bought it but I was hanging with it for almost 7 years. But because I am inspired by what you shared about CREATING NEGATIVE SPACE. I FINALLY gotten rid of it and I FEEL LIBERATED 😭😭I am literally crying because you helped me DID IT. THANK YOU!🙏🙏🙏You are such an INSPIRATION to us. Keep on inspiring! God bless you and your family!!!❤❤❤

I can declutter my shoes. Im having such a hardtime letting go after retiring. I have so many pretty shoes, but I just don't wear them anymore.

We are moving house this summer to a smaller home with no garage. I’ve got to go through the whole house! I’m breaking it down into smaller sections so it’s not overwhelming. It’s hard to let go of little kid toys that are so special to me but no longer needed because our kids are past that stage. But I’m feeling excited because I know the less we own the less I have to manage 🙂 Thanks for continually inspiring and motivating me ❤

❤ Great list, kids shoes and kitchen items can always use another round of decluttering. Big family makes it harder to stay minimal😀 In Sweden were we live most people only decorate for Christmas and not very excessive. A pumpkin for halloween and some flowers for easter but not much else. Interesting to see the difference between countries. Have a lovely weekend.

❤❤❤doing a big decluttering now! On a roll and lots to go!!

This is such a good list. Thank you!❤

Those large hoops look great on you.

Great tips 🙏🏻 but you are wrong on one important point: the lid fairy will return the lid...but only after you have decluttered the container to which it belongs 😂

I only have one purse too. I used to have a winter and a summer purse but I couldn't find many I liked.😊

What a great video. I have been on this journey for some years and I felt myself checking off the list you were doing and YES I celebrated when I heard them. I am now working on the generational stuff. How in the world did I become the keeper of the family stuff. I have been setting up different boxes for different lines of my family. WOW. I agree to consider some stuff that is simply not important to the next generation. Bravo to your video. Well done.

Truest minimalist Ive seen! Love your opening statement! Ive thought of objects as physical manifestations for years and all my clutter mini procrastinations. Borrowing your statement to motivate me through another level of removing what Im not using and keeping for the wrong reasons. Also, I will have faith that i will have what i need and do not need stuff to feel secure.
