When I saw you with the bear, that made me really stop and think. My husband hates to get rid of old toys that have some monetary value yet they sit in tubs in the basement. He never even looks at them!
@@nonnieTerri Thank you so much for taking the time to comment! A lot of people are like your husband. The only thing in my bin (I really pared down) is my wedding stuff if my kids want it one day, a bag of cards and drawings from my kids and husband, a few things from my mom like her shirt and my baby blanket my grandma made me. All other items, I have out or use. That was not always the way I was though. It took time. Your husband may come around to a new way of thinking one day. There will be 2 more week’s of videos in this series: clothing and household items. On New Year’s Day, I’ll be posting a giant house cleaning video. Hope you’re subscribed, so you’ll get notified. All the best, Bren 🌸💕
@@jaclynhinkle3046 You’re welcome! They are all different types of items to us. Some I was able to part ways with way easier than others. I’d say my kids items were the hardest for me over any of these. I really appreciate you watching and commenting. I hope you subscribed because I have so many more things coming up. There will be 2 more videos in this series: clothing and household items. All the best, Bren 🌸💕
My weird sentimental items were multiple dolls I made of actors and actresses from TV shows. It sounds strange, but when they multiply, they do take up a lot of room. I was able to connect with a surprising amount of the cast members, along with people associated with the show. I know they will be loved unconditionally, and I suppose they were meant to leave my possession. One even ended up being adopted by an actor's son and became his favourite toy!
@@nicoleh3703 What a great story! It’s an awesome example of passing something on to another person who absolutely loves and values it. I love that the one doll became the actors son’s favorite toy. When I hear a story like yours, it reminds me of what my dad said….about how letting things go made so many people happy. Thanks for sharing with me. If you get a chance, please watch the other 3 videos in the series and let me know what you think. 🌸 I hope you subscribed because I have a deep cleaning video coming out soon…hopefully Sunday. If you subscribe, you’ll get notified when my videos come out. All the best, Bren 💕🌸
I really like how you divided up the categories and talked about each one individually and how you deal with them slightly differently. I have watched A LOT of videos about clearing sentimental clutter and this is by far the best! Thank you!
@@donnav You absolutely made my ENTIRE day…& it’s just starting so that’s awesome. ☀️😊 Due to the fact that I struggled so much with sentimental items, I also struggled with how best to relay this information to others going through the same experiences. Knowing that you found value in how I formatted this information just makes me so happy! The other 2 videos in this series (clothes and household items) will be posting in the next 2 weeks and on New Year’s Day, I’m going to be releasing a deep cleaning video. I hope you’re subscribed, so you get notified when they come out. All the best, Bren 🌸💕
Being a visual person,I loved how you had a visual image of the section you were about to cover. It helped me remember the points you covered. Great video.
@@twonder4 Thank you so much for sharing that! I’m a visual person, too. I know exactly what you mean. This topic is such a hard one for people that I felt it deserved categories. I am so happy the breakdown helped you!! Yay!! Hopefully you caught episode 1 in the series, too. Please subscribe, if you’re not already, because episodes 3 and 4 will post this week and next week on clothes/accessories and household items. Around New Year’s Day, I’ll be releasing a whole house deep clean video. If you get a chance to watch any of these, please let me know what you think. Have a wonderful day! All the best, Bren 🌸💕
I think of your channel every time I use my spatula lol! Love it! Great ideas here, especially getting your kids to go through their boxes with you and respecting their decisions. Not everything that is sentimental to us, matters to our kids.
@@Shareebysea love it! That’s right! I did keep some of the things my kids chose not to, but not much. They always hated the two white ceramic heads they made in art class that I put in the video, so I finally let them get rid of them. 😆
@@terrihubbard1437 You are my very first comment on this video! You have no idea how much I appreciate you taking the time. New episode in this series will be out next Wednesday!!! Hope you subscribed. 🌸💕 all the best, Bren
I'm really happy to have found you. You seem to be very articulate and very easy to understand and to listen to. I'm on my decluttering mission and your tips are going to help me continue my journey. God bless you.
@@lydiacalderon1124 Your comment has made my day BRIGHTER! ☀️ Thank you so much for taking the time to reach out to me. You keep going on your decluttering mission. Having only things you love, enjoy and use allows you to free up your mind so you can think about better things. I hope you subscribed, because there’s one more video in this SERIES (1 more the one you watched and one after, too) that will be released next week in this series on household items and then around New Year’s Day, I’ll be releasing a whole house deep clean video. If you’re subscribed, you’ll get notified when these videos are released. I hope you have a wonderful day! All the best & God bless you, too. Bren 💕🌸
@@scriptimonicaonset Thank you so much for watching Monica! Over the next 2 weeks, there will be 2 more videos in this series: clothes and household items. Hope you’ll get to watch them. All the best, Bren 🌸💕
@@ellenmeents So glad you enjoyed it and I really appreciate your comment! I learned the hard way on some things for sure. Glad to be on the other side of it. One thing comes to mind is my dad had expensive binoculars but I would never use them. After two years of holding onto them, I sold them and put the money toward travel. In fact, that is one of the things I tell myself when parting ways with something (I wish I would’ve included that 😂). Would I rather keep this item or use its worth to travel. Prioritizing has worked for me. I hope you subscribed because I’ll be posting 2 more videos in this series: clothing and household items. Then on New Year’s Day, I’ll be posting a deep cleaning house video. All the best, Bren 💕🌸
A very timely video! We're just about to start downsizing, and categorizing things in this way will make it easier. There are definitely a lot of decisions that we'll need to make with our kids. Thank you for the insights.
@@EverywhereWeDreamedOfGoing Thank you for watching! !My pleasure! I’m glad the tips helped you! These items were the hardest for me!! Episodes 3 will be out next Wednesday. 🌸💕
@@MyBlessedNest Thank you so much for watching! Next week’s episode 3 will be on clothes and I’m really excited to do that one. My closet needs a clean sweep. All the best, Bren 🌸💕

Thank you. Keep up the good videos!
I love you split up the types of sentimental items and explained each type! Usually people just lump them all together.

Great advice! Definitely not worth keeping something just because you inherited it. You also need to love it or use it.
