Hi I'm Emmy! For years I’ve worked towards a simpler life with less stuff, stress and mental clutter, whilst being aware of my impact on the environment. I believe that a happy and balanced life begins at home, and that anyone can organise their life and space and in turn make room for more enjoyable life and work experiences.
Let me help you declutter and organise your home, use items you already have and save money in the process.

I Decluttered Our Garage | Clean & Organise with me
It was time to reorganise and declutter our garage after 1,5 years living in this new house. Sometimes a declutter is not a big purge, but rather a consolidation of things.

MINIMALIST LINEN CLOSET: Declutter & Organise With Me
Awesome!
Looks great. 😊
Good video, thanks. Similar to our space with the same shelves and groupings. I got lots of big containers (cheap from Kmart) and labelled them just for a more uniform look. I keep gardening tools in a largish rubbish bin, keeps them from moving around so much but I'd like another solution too 😆
Great teamwork! My partner and I are currently working on his mancave to get it decluttered, cleaned, and set up in a more functional way.
@@jennyjenkins877 good on you, it's so great when the space works better!
Great job!
Also, please do a what’s in my minimal phone. Thx
Hi Emmy! Can you show your updated makeup collection and also do a house tour.? Would love to see. Keep uploading! Love your videos:)
Great video! My problem is synchronizing, my head doesn't really get round how to set it from one cloud to another, lets say Google photos to One drive. We've got a Microsoft subscription, also because normally photos come from my phone and some are in the phone and others are in Photos. So I cant find some afterwards. I tend to use the Trial and Error Method 😂. I think I'm starting to get to get the gist 😅
@@debbieredhill it can be tricky, and I think the key is to have some kind of list and prioritise one folder/system at a time, otherwise it can get super overwhelming :)
@@SimpleEssentials yes. My problem was I synchronized the photos from Google photos and after some were missing so I went into panic mode 🤣🤣🤣🤣. I've got to get back to it 😅. Thanks
Pjs on the end of the bed ❤
You can use it for small scarves. like silk scarves. It will hold them in place.
I feel so much better after a reset of my house. It motivates me to do more.
@@Laurel-h6c it's a great way to build momentum whilst doing self care 🙂
I highley can recommend cleaning the bathtub with a shampoo and a cheap and smooth non--scrub-sponge! A dandruff shampoo like "head and shoulders" will do a very good job (or anyone else) You can do it after you took a bath and still standing in your bathtub. it is very easy and you will save lots of scrub work. Even for a reset scrub the shampoing method works very well. And by the way: there is NOT MUCH shampoo needed for it. Loveley regards from Vienna/Austriastanding

This is a good way to see what you have in the pantry. A good use of space without crowding everything. Thank you for the video

Hi Emma how many people do you buy for Christmas. U have lovely necklaces
@@michellegiblin6812 I only do Christmas presents for about 5 ppl (incl my husband). With most friends and family we don't do gifts, but bring a meal and get together instead.
Thanks Emma ❤
Nice tips! I have a challenge with inherited albums from my Dad. I sent a whole load away to be digitised, threw away a heap of random scenary pics that weren't relevant to me, but still have about 15 albums of my photos and families after culling. Not sure what to do with them and would like the cupboard they are in back! Any other ideas?
@@jemcapon I found with photo albums that I did them in batches and started with the 'easier' ones to scan and then toss/recycle. I had 10+ early on and just sat down about once every few weeks and scanned one at a time. It takes time, but it's also a nice way to see photos of you/your loved ones and share them digitally. My dad was so excited when I sent him digital photos of lots of things from my childhood (he's not very tech savvy). I still kept a few printed photos, but only a few. I also have a digital photo frame in my kitchen that rotates a bunch of my favourite photos digitally and I look at them and smile almost every day. I guess the final thing is, if it's not your memories but other people's, you have no obligation to hold onto them if they don't give you joy.

I've used jeans legs to make potholders/trivets. Or I keep the fabric for patching things later.
@@mollymccann5043 great idea, thanks!
I repurposed two sleeves with two 1'5/2 litres bottles to make inserts for boots and keep them up straight. I suppose you could do the same with trousers legs. Get the empty plastic bottles put each one into each of the legs tie or sew the top and the bottom as if they were sweets and cut or tuck in the material that sticks out for it not to be bulky. Then you stick each one (with the slimmest part downwards) into each high boot and that way they stay straight 😅😂. Or you could fill them with old socks, fabric or any other filling and put them on front of the bottoms of the doors to prevent draughts and cold coming in. Hope it helps xxx
@@debbieredhill thanks for the tips, might try that for my winter boots!
Great idea thanks
@@Laurel-h6c thank you 😊. Not mine, I saw them somewhere 😉
Where is your necklace from
@@michellegiblin6812 I was gifted this as a child, no idea where it's from. Has my star sign on it 🙂
I have declutterred my house since Jan. I now have empty shelves, cupboards & drawers. I love it❣️
@@CynthiaMiller-cc3qj well done! 😊
I did the same for my folks many years ago.
@@CynthiaMiller-cc3qj good on you! It's usually very appreciated 😊
I find myself straining to see the whole bag as you unload it. I wish it were more centered on the screen.
Great video thank you! Love your kind and quiet energy. I used to work for a company that represented a Swedish papermill, and I have 2 Dala horses. I have had them for 40 years, and they still spark joy 😉 Love from the Netherlands 🌷🧀🇳🇱
@@coffeelovingqueen4122 sparking joy is key, I'm glad you enjoy having them!
Your Dad had to be pleased! What was his reaction?
@@dianarobertson7319 He was very surprised that I got it done over just a few days, said it was his favourite birthday present (the party mentioned in video 1 was for him) 😊
You made a very nice difference for your Dad. I enjoyed watching your process too.
@@laurahicks8084 thanks for watching!
