EXTREME 2 day closet declutter | Becoming a minimalist Episode 7 

Currently waiting for Ken to turn up ... put your bets in if he will turn up to collect the drawers or not :D!! ... I'm not hopeful

I cheered when you got rid of those jeans that made you feel bad!

Do yourself a favor: get the same type of hangers! :D Makes everything look sooo much better and everything hangs in the same height etc. Get thin ones, you wont regret it! Also, dont beat yourself up too much, you got rid of a lot, minimalism is so much more than getting rid of as lot as possible, as long as everything you own makes you happy and you use it by the year, thats the important thing. I used years to downsize and to get to where I am at now, I used to count my clothing and I thought I never decluttered enough.. Today I practice practical minimalism and everything I own makes me happy. Do you. Happy journey

You’re choices of items to get rid of was really good. You should try the same with the clothes you kept. I bet you’d still find some realistic scenarios to be able to minimize just a tiny bit more… Remember with things like jewellery, chose the “hell, yes” and most valuable. You’ll be dealing with jewellery from now until you’re 80!! Truthfully, it comes into our lives again and again and again. The clothes, books and art - again, are quality, quality, quality only. Save up to buy just some things once in a while. Then, save for top quality items you are sure will outlast “fashion”. You’ll find that things you love that have quality can be worn again and again (sometimes even past several wears before needing a full laundering - spot clean, and air out quality clothes; then wear again. I’m proud of you. 🇨🇦

This is SOOO me when I start decluterring! Once I have finished, unless I'm too tired, I go through my wardrobe at least once or twice again, just to see if there's anything else. There usually is. Idk, it's just a really sweet feeling getting rid, freeing yourself from unnecessary stuff - clothes, shoes, collectibles, jewelry.. anything! Thanks, mostly for proving I'm not the only one doing this. :D

Velvet hangers - game changers.. Wooden ones only for coats.

The Marie Kondo method of taking everything out of the wardrobe at once can be overwhelming and self defeating. You have done a good job.

Another thing I’d do is try to reduce down to where you can get rid of the few plastic hangers you have. And get rid of the dresser you can hardly open!

Something that might help is getting all the same hangers instead of different ones. It makes your closet feel soo organized and clean, etc. Also, you could try to center your closet drawers so they don’t ram into the inside wall and they can open nicely. Just some suggestions that have helped me, but you’re killing!

I have to say, it was so stressful to watch this process! I’m glad you pushed through, but there are so many easier ways to declutter. I really love Dana K White’s “no mess declutter strategy,” and “container concept,” which doesn’t involve emptying your space. For decluttering clothes, I only take out my “no” and “maybe” items, so it’s easy to see right away how well your “yes” items fit in the space, and then you don’t have that second and third step of putting things back. And I’m so glad you took the dresser out of the closet! 😅 Drawers that can’t open create hidden storage and add to your overall clutter level. But from one Rebecca to another, well done!

Hi, I just subbed 😀 Your videos are really nice, down to earth, no artificial drama, totally relatable and also funny. I've been trying to find a minimalism channel like this for such a long time. Found it! 👍 😍

@ 8:35 - love this! I'm going to remember this today when I start my first massive closet purge! Great job!

Thank you for sharing, I really enjoyed your video. I’ve been decluttering & organising for 5 months now, it’s so hard ! I’ve done my kitchen, laundry, under stairs, linen cupboard & I’m doing my closet atm, still a lot to go, I find it satisfying yet anxiety provoking to get rid of things.

try the hanger method. you put everything on a hanger and if you worn something change the hanger. Sometimes we lie to ourselves.

Amei o vídeo, amo minimalismo ❤️❤️❤️

When I started going through my clothes and the same thing happened to me, I went through my clothes once more during the following week, i.e. I threw all the clothes that I had decided to keep on my bed again this is how I convinced myself that I only have the clothes I like and want to keep when I keep them agen. That help me, yes that is lots of work but when I get just to it it when faster and faster every time

Love your personality and all these inspiring decluttering vids!!!💗💗🥳🥳 what a lovely record to remember your old stuffs!

Really enjoying binge watching your series.

Honestly can’t wait to see your channel grow! I really love your content keep it going :) I pitiably grabbed out my jewelry box and decluttered with you lol

I’m so glad I found your channel! I watched this at the same time as I was decluttering my clothes :D I really like your editing style!

What I would do in this situation with the maybe pile is if you decide to keep a maybe item find something from the keep pile to swap it out for. That will be 5 more items down.

I've watched maybe 75+ videos on decluttering. One thing I do is write a date the day I clean up and stick it in the closet on the wall. That way the next time you clean out, you will know how long it been. I ALWAYS COUNT how many items I donate and it makes my brain feel like I've really have accomplished a great thing. I do noticed you don't wipe down, vaccum behind things. Do that and you will feel better!

I also kept my dvd collection that I think represent an important part of myself. :) For now they're in a big luggage on the side because I'm moving bit I thought it was important to me to keep them.

I like to declutter by like items. I pull out only all my long sleeve so I can see how many I have of that one item. Then I can see if I have too many long sleeves. Then all the pants etc.

Hey, I like your channel. Keep going!! Small tip I got from another RU-vidr "But first coffee" that maybe helps you. Give your self a limit per clothes category. Like you want to keep 6 sweaters. So 1 sweater goes in, 1 goes out. That way you're not buying a lot off stuff and trow them out, in a few months. And it cost less space, money and time. I did it some months ago and I am buying less because I have to throw something out and right now I want to keep everything :) I love to see you next time!!

If you are investing in yourself, then you never lack wealth. the best investment is , investing in you .anyway liked your videos . a fellow creator

Beautiful clip ! ❤ Very nice Vlog, Can You make clip.. Organisation, cleaning office desk - Declutter Paperwork your office? cleaning desk old papers, mails, documents ... sorting ripping papers, documents ... can you make that clip?

Okay, you need to get rid of a lot more stuff. You just need to do a second and third pass through all your clothes. People think going through and saying "I like this" is a reason to keep it. But nobody needs 14 white tank tops, even if a white tank top is a staple. Especially if someone doesn't have to pay to do laundry, it's very easy to get by having only 7 t-shirts, 5 work shirts, 2 dressy shirts, etc.

I just found your channel and have to know... Did you get rid of the dresser at some point after Ken flaked?! I'm invested now 😂

I always try things on before decluttering, never a good idea 🥲 I can relate

Agee it gets easier to declutter with time. Im currently on my 3 massive declutter and at the moment it’s easier for me to decide, however I’m dealing with the sentiment items and those are harder. Seven years of doing this “minimalist” journey and I’m still not there. 🤓

That's the hardest part of minimalism. Not buying it in the first place!

I never had much. I hate to shop. I have 3 pairs of shoes. 3 pairs of slacks. One pair of nice slacks. No skirts or dresses. I am a 72 y.o. grandmother. The environmental issues keep me buying second hand or getting clothes from friends and family. Tina, Al's wife

I want that workout top!!! Where is it from? Haha

Put the stamps you found in your sewing box into your wallet as they expire at the end of the year. If you leave them in the box they'll go the same way as the medication you binned. Great work on the declutter 👍🏻

Did you know that you should take expired and unwanted medications to the pharmacy and ask them to dispose of it?

Put it on the side by the bins if he doesn't turn up-- someone will probably end up taking it from there

Your sorting and your storage is perfect I'admit it but I'don't undertand why you don't wear a belt in your pants ? You 'll see it Will hold better and it Will be prettier , it's à friendly advice but otherwise the video is great Bravo !!! 😊😅👍💯🙋‍♂️👏

The clothes are supposed to fit you, you aren’t supposed to fit the clothes.❤️

The outfit is giving me Kim Possible vibes. I'm not mad at that though. lol

Please be careful with marketplace, sometimes there are some creepers looking for women and if they see that you are alone then I don't know but it concerns me. I would mention a husband or leave it out and communicate through the door or phone only. Love your series. Thank you

Loved this!! Girl, you did good to get rid of so much❤️ thank you for tagging my insta page🥰 you da BEST! x

20:54 He should have comforted you, it was the perfect opportunity to get closer and he missed it?

How did you afford the house? ☺️

Wait u Pronounce Zootopia different lol zootopalit 😆 it was unexpected but funny lol

A dresser that you cannot open into a closet!!! What kind of idea is that?

Ridiculous😏

You just should donate .that dress you never wore isnt going to bring much money.not worth the hassle.

MARIE KONDO IS A TERRIBLE, OVERWHELMING IDEA!!😠
