I was having kind of a rough day the other day. And one of the things that seem to help create some mental space for me, is decluttering and cleaning up! I tackled our kitchen area, my office space and my closet, and it was so great because it really helped me get refocused again! So check it out, I hope you guys will enjoy this video :)

Ever since I started decluttering and moving towards minimalism 3 years ago (getting rid of 90% of my stuff), life is so much better and less stressful! I have 3 teenage sons who I am hopefully inspiring. What I have noticed, is that you have to really stay on top of things and make sure everything has a place, but its so worth it. BTW, I love your white and bright kitchen.

Great video! I'm currently living in a teeny tiny Japanese apartment, and I've found the key is to have a place for everything. Then when I come home, instead of just dumping everything on my desk, I take the 3 minutes it takes to put everything back where it belongs, instead of having to spend 20 minutes doing a big sort at the weekends! Plus I can then enjoy the clutter free specs during the week... it does take practice though! :) looking forward to the future vids you mentioned!

This was a very inspiring video. The one thing that always strikes me when I undertake a decluttering project is how quick and easy it is. It is also a very freeing feeling after it is accomplished.

That painting that you are working on so far looks lovely. It would be great to see a video of the painting when it is finished. Fun video.

That video is in progress ha ha:)

You may have already gotten rid of the sweater but some ideas for next time-turn it into a pillow cover! Or, you can make it into a scarf! I need to go thru my clothes soon too; the weather is changing soon so I am prepping for cold weather!

I have to declutter a lot. I have been a minimal person for about 5 years but not my husband. He doesn't mind bringing in stuff but then can't stand it unorganized. Lol So I slowly organize and then eventually say enough is enough and cycle. I like to call them my cycles. My husband knows when I am cycling I am like a cyclone. I don't touch his personal items which oddly he has less than me in clothing but we had to compromise. He loves enough stuff and can't stand it empty. I like it empty with light and little important things. So all that to say compromise has led to cycling stuff to donation. However, we are careful now that the donation goes to a local charity or we just don't buy at all. :) We have some empty walls for me and others have decor for the home effect. :)

You are soo watchable. I like your calm style of talking and simple presenting!

Love your youtube sub counter. So great to see a declutter video from you - they are always so inspiring.

@karenfisher5274 6 лет назад

Yay! Very motivational! Can’t wait to see your room makeover. I’m the declutterer and tidier in the family. I purge regularly but also keep items if I definitely know that they will be used in the future. Love your channel! Great video!

@Godownsize 6 лет назад

Thank you so much Karen:) You are so lucky to be a natural tidy'er.. enjoy it:):)

@hfs9700 6 лет назад

Just tidy up and declutter in your own way and time. I read the Marie Condo book but did not put it into action. The thing I did gain from the book was that if you enjoy wearing / using something on a regular basis then keep it or pass it on but get it out of our life. Personally I also feel many people have been kind of brainwashed from the book. Maybe they needed this - who knows. But living in a four season country as you do things like winter shoes and jackets need to be stored and used when the right season comes.

@Godownsize 6 лет назад

Exactly, and I'm all about experimenting but I don't like rules to much so having a guideline works way better for me:)

Go Downsize Great minds think alike 😅😅😅😅😅😅

@rachelselby5469 6 лет назад

I have majorly decluttered over the past year to a state of almost minimalist and uber-tidy. However, all it takes is one hectic month like the end of the school year (I'm a teacher) and everything falls back into total mess. I'm thinking that like taking antibiotics, I didn't go to the very end of the process before thinking I was done. I'm on to it now the summer break has started.

@Godownsize 6 лет назад

That is so true, it really takes work at least on a weekly basis, good luck on getting your house back during summer, that sounds awesome:)

Please send me the beautiful sweater, big or small, I'd wear it, or tell your talented mother-in-law to knit me one. The sweater looks gorgeous!! I live in the Portland,Oregon, USA, area! Hahahahaha

I like to put a timer so I can speed around the house and get stuff done. I think I like the challenge. I do this when I'm getting dressed to go somewhere. I'll tell my husband to put a 15 min timer and I speed through it.

@Godownsize 6 лет назад

the timer thing seems to be a common theme for a lot of people, I'll have to really try it:)

@Jo-hello 6 лет назад

I loved this video!!!! I really hope you do more 👏🤞 I always find your methods realistic, balanced and inspiring. X

@Godownsize 6 лет назад

Thank you Jo that means a lot, that's exactly my aproach and so happy to hear it comes a cross:)

@iamkat-agnt99-ash-kbt.59 6 лет назад

Well done! It can sneak up on you! When we move we will have a place for everything better. I know keeping the amount of things down like you do works, as it works for us :) I love these vids, as it keeps me motivated to live in a clutter free house :) It feels so good. Kat xx

@Godownsize 6 лет назад

Thanks Kat, I'm glad my untidy house can motivate others :) :) :)

@kirstinpiche2200 6 лет назад

I'm glad to hear someone else didn't like the Marie Kondo method. I thought I was the only one.

@pineconelife 6 лет назад

Great video! We are two people in a large 2 level home. It would be easy to stuff it (and a few areas are getting there). I find setting the timer for 15 minutes and just tackling it gets me started and by the end of 15 minutes I’m motivated to keep going. Thanks for the inspiration- my craft room here needs a good going through. So not a Marie Kondo type either.

@Godownsize 6 лет назад

ha ha thanks, glad to know I'm not alone:) THe timer idea might work I'll give it a try:)

@amandaangell1594 6 лет назад

Love this video! I needed a little luck in the butt. Clutter has definitely creeped up in my house, especially in my wardrobe (what's worse is half of it I don't even like)!

@kellyallin3007 6 лет назад

Great job. Yes I definitely have the same problem. Not good at tidying up. HELP!! Plus the other five people I live with aren’t either

@Godownsize 6 лет назад

ha ha that will get overwhelming fast:) Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone:)

Can I pleeeeeease buy the handknitted sweater ? I have wanted one for ages !!!

@katiethomas5889 5 лет назад

I suggest for your pants to either get nice leggings or a good pair of trousers from khaki material. Khakis are nicer than jeans but still not too heavy (especially in the heat).

@debsmith7050 6 лет назад

bet your handmade knitted sweater could have been made smaller...........

@marisolgarcia9186 6 лет назад

Urgente necesitas leer el libro “ La magia del orden " de Marie Kondo !!!

@TheRollingBasti 6 лет назад

In my world that's mostly tidying up not decluttering - anyways why is there such a mess in the first place? None of my business, put you did put it out here...
