Okay I'm a minimalist deep to my core so I've watched every "purge your closet" "minimalist wardrobe" video UA-cam has to offer. And this is the FIRST time someone broke down their declutter in this way. Got 20 shirts, get rid of 10. This feels so achievable and rewarding. Great tip!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I love this method too!
I’m inspired to try this method too. Always tried other methods but need to give this one a go!
I really like this idea as well rather then just the do i use it does it fit, keep it super simple… you have ten keep only half your favorites. Easier to be more brutal when you’re on the fence to have that clear goal.
Same dawg
This is such a simple approach! You don't even have to do it all at once- just shirts one day, sweaters another, etc. Thank you for sharing!
One thing you did that’s a serious game changer when decluttering is not hesitating to get rid of something that still has the tag on. I always struggle to get rid of things on the basis of “I spent money on this and even if I don’t wear it I don’t want to waste the money!” But a bad purchase isn’t made any less bad by keeping it unnecessarily in your closet 😅 thanks for this, so motivating!
Your hanger trick of putting the clothes on facing backwards at the beginning of the year and seeing what we never wore at the end of the year helped a TON with closet decluttering.
I've done that for the past year, it's very helpful. I think you can talk yourself into thinking "I've worn that somewhere" but this way you KNOW you have not worn it at all...
This is an awesome way to declutter! I’m a minimalism in my clothes. Literally have 3 T-shirt’s, 2 pairs of jeans, 1 pair of leggings and few dresses 😂. But I love it! I wear everything all the time and once it starts falling apart, I get rid of it and buy something to replace it. I love it.
Come help me throw all my stuff away!😂
I am a super minimalist with clothing too, and was watching this thinking. “I did not know anybody could possibly own that many clothes!!” Glad I’m not the only one! I love my small capsule wardrobe, and like you said if I get sick of something or it gets stained or anything else I just replace it! So nice.
So I need to put this out there. I saw Page yesterday at Costco. And I sadly missed my opportunity and chickened out. In my defense she was on the phone and seemed very focused to get out of there. So here is what I would have said if I had the courage. Thank you for your content and your vulnerability and for being so genuine. ❤
That’s awesome!! Which Costco haha 😂
Jordan, you rock! The fact that you use the most of short breaks in between work, kids, activities to craft UA-cam videos... you definitely know how to make the most of every minute! Very admirable
Can we see more of this?! Love these declutters where youtubers take us along in the process 👍🏻👍🏻
Im a minimalist for sure but I think it's great how you tackled it! Cutting everything in half is a great way to start! Not everyone has to be a minimalist but we should all avoid excess. Way to go! It does feel good!
I needed this so much! I have the best intentions and then always get SO overwhelmed and feel guilty especially if it still has the tags on etc. Watching this actually makes me feel like I can FINALLY just bite the bullet and do it. Also as a mom i love how you were able to fit this in with all the other interruptions...makes it feel a lot more relatable. Thank you!!!
Thank you for how you started this video and the message regarding your ADHD... I needed that. My teen son was just diagnosed and you summed up his actions describing yourself. Wow. Thank you for helping this hurting mom heart who has been searching for answers but do not know the questions to ask. I would love to know more of your journey. ❤
I was so overwhelmed with my clothes years ago. This is exactly what I did. Cut my clothes in half. Every 6 months for about 2-3 years. Now I have a much smaller pool of clothes. I’m not cutting down again until after I’m done with pregnancies and early motherhood so I have plenty of options between the body changes, but it was so helpful!! Cutting in half is a fantastic strategy!!
You are my hero right now, this seems like it's a dream, no one could declutter so easily. Thank you for showing us it IS possible ❤
I've not owned that many clothes my entire life, and I'm almost 67. Wow.
I'm an ADHD mom and wife of 3 who also have ADHD . At one time I didn't think minimalism would work for me but after alot of reflection (and some therapy), I realized that my part-time home and the place where I found an incredible amount of peace, was a completely bare-bones living arrangement which has/is making my decluttering journey so much easier.
Having a definite number to toss or keep ( half) is brilliant. I think I could do that! Thanks!❤
I LOVE that you’re a maximalist haha and I feel that way too but I also hate messes so… this really helped that you got rid of HALF that is just what I needed to hear. So inspiring!!
Absolutely love this!! ❤ You don't have to be a "minimalist" to enjoy a good purge
I love watching declutter videos and I’m so proud of everything you did in one day! And a little jealous of your closet and clothes. I’m a minimalist and for each category have so much less. I agree, variety is so fun! 🥳
So satisfying to watch. The getting rid of half doesn't resonate with me personally but it was super fun watching you get excited and gain momentum with it.
Highly recommend going through and picking out your favorites and using the container method in decluttering at the speed of life! Basically if it doesn’t fit in your closet something has to go.
Yes,see Dana L White, container method.❤🎉
ok, so knowing that you are a maximalist, this video was SO entertaining to watch, bc it opened the window to my friends who are NOT minimalist like myselff. Also, you totally CRUSHED this video! PLEASE DO PART 2 so we can see the final results!!!! Good job!
Awesome! I feel you momma, all of our closets are bursting at the seams. Totally understand feeling overwhelmed and insane! I love how you broke down each section and trying to get rid of half in each section.
I put all my outfits together .I try on all my close and ask my self how I feel in them .if it feels good and I love it I keep it.quality over quantity
I saw someone do a trick. When you hang your clothes up...put all the hangers backwards. In 6 months time. The ones that are still backwards get rid of. That means you won't be using them. Jordan, I would die to have that closet and girl you sure have the clothes. Lol I like the way you declutter. Great system. I need to try that!
I don't know why I've never thought about doing it this way before! I love the idea of counting each category and getting getting rid of at least half. What a great idea. Thank you for sharing.
By far my favorite declutter video and I have watched sooooo many
I have literally had 'Purge closet' on my to-do list for a month now, so thanks for the inspo!! Maximalism Queen, here. The idea to set a purge number for each category is brilliant, def going to try that, thanks! Had to LOL when you said you're a maximalist - yes, girl, yes - you have eight kiddos, LOL.🏆 May the Lord love and bless you and your family to the max through the holidays and rght on through 2024!
Yes girl, you have eight kiddos 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for sharing this!! I was amazed at how quickly you were able to make decisions! You’ve really inspired me to clean out my own closet! 😊
I'm so proud of you, Jordan!!! I've been following you for years and was super excited to see this video!! ❤
Yes with ADHD and indecisiveness. I will say that AFTER I decluttered over half my wardrobe and got rid of so much stuff inside my house despite how my brain works, it makes it EASIER! Getting overwhelmed and being indecisive is EASY to do when you have SO MANY choices and things to choose from. I know everyone is different, but keep in mind that even though it’s stressful in the beginning, the end result makes life so much easier and less chaotic! Amazing video! Thanks for sharing❤
That was awesome! Hearing that it was easier to have a set number to get rid of helps.
The greatest declutter video!! I'm on a closet declutter video binge, but this one is the best I've come across. You're method is amazing, and I love watching you follow through on your promis and actually getting rid of half (or even more)!
Keep half. Donate half. Love it.
I just cleaned out 2 garbage bags, but I KNOOOOOOOW I can do better! Thanks for the push! 🎉😊
Great job!
Great job!
Love the keep half donate half!! I’d love to do this with other areas of the home too! Great video!!
Wow, you had 52 t-shirts!! LOL My home is small, and I think the closets were made for Barbie clothes!! I probably have 10 T shirts and most of them are in drawers. I like the idea of clearing out half of what you have! Well done Jordan! I like how you did it quickly without thinking about it too much. Make a decision and do it!!
You had 144 tops, and the year only has 365 days, which theoretically means you only have to do laundry 3 times a year to keep you covered (literally)😅 I'm not an American (it seems very much like an American phenomenon) and the amount of clothes baffles me every time. But I get that you like the variety, and I do love your videos❤
You should get your house of colours done so you know exactly what colors look good on you! I’m so proud of you and getting this done!! It has to feel so good!
I have a smallish closet for the amount of clothes that I have. I took Marie Kondo's tip and folded my t-shirts, leggings, jean capris and put them in drawers or bins under my hanging clothes. Easy to get to, but they don't take up prime real estate on the hanging rods. The rods are reserved for my beautiful blouses and kimonos, etc, and keeps them wrinkle free. Many times all it takes is better organization and not so much throwing out good clothing or things you may end up regretting.
Honestly, watching you do these things and talk about yourself, it is like me in another life. LOL Very much enjoy your videos and am using them to insire me to move on my list of stuff to do.
You’re inspiring me because I’ve been standing in my closet for weeks looking at all the clothes that I have and thinking how overwhelmed I’m going to be and I got to go through it. Basically I want it remodeled so I really should pull everything out but for now I’m going to try your method on how many I have, get rid of half. I hope it works for me. 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
I don’t usually comment on YT videos, but i must say i am a minimalist and i think watching your video was joy because it was practical honest and fun ❤
omg thank you for the idea breaking it down by a number, and per style! it totally helped me purge more not only because i had a number goal, but more importantly purged a lot per clothing style. breaking it down in these two ways helped with the anxiety to even start and be quick for each decision. total life saver! i think i'll have to look at purging other areas in my house with this strategy!! thank you and love ya!
Wow this is amazing! I don;t know anybody that has this much clothing even after you decluttered, I think your wardrobe is massive, maybe I've led a very sheltered life...........however congratulations on your declutter, you've given everyone some great ideas here and I love the energy you put into it!
Jordan I luv how u chose a #. Count total & get rid of 1/2. That is such a great strategy! That is such an incredibly helpful tip! I love that u r a maximallist Jordan!
What a great idea for someone like me who procrastinates when it has to do with my closet. Although everything in my closet is in my current size. There are items that are worn out or ill fitting or no longer in style. Gonna tackle it right now. Thanks for the motivation!
My son joined in right away. We ended up going to Goodwill 3x as we were filling bags because I didn't want any 2nd thoughts or regrets. So long clutter! Our closets are so much more manageable and we're no longer overloaded with choices. We did go clutterblind by getting used to looking at useless items taking up space. May need to do another pass through mine but so glad I watched your video of keeping half, getting rid of half.
Having stuff that I don’t like or don’t fit me well actually bothers me in my daily life, it’s very freeing to declutter and I love having the feeling that everything I own, I love. Excellent job beautiful 🌸
I’m soooo glad inspired and doing this tonight
Literally sitting in my living room in a HUGE pile of laundry when this popped up in my suggested videos 😂 it was faaaaaaate ❤️ thanks for this!
Love love love the idea of halving the number.
I loved it!! Really excited for part 2 and to see the whole closet organized. ❤
Suggestion for the family tshirt you don't wear but it has sentimental value: there are frames online that are specifically displaying tshirts on your wall. I too have a special tshirt I will never wear, but it's on my wall :)
Looks so much better and you can now find things.
This “half” mindset is GENIUS!!! I’m trying it this weekend!😊😊❤
I like your idea of counting and getting rid of half. That is a helpful goal.
A lot of clothes overwhelms me, so I definitely have very little and I love it. I started buying less clothes but better quality that will last a lot longer and pieces that don’t really go out of style. The section where your T-shirts are that could probably fit all of my clothes not including my jeans/ pants and coats
Absolutely loved this. Major inspiration xx
Jordan! 😂 you had more T-shirts than I have with my entire closet!
Sometimes we have abundance in one area over others. You can let go of the abundant items+ still have what you need. I've notice I have abundance in the area where I give. Also, I've noticed the more I get rid of, the easier it is to let go of stuff. Thank you for your videos! ❤
That's a great observation about the abundance in your area of giving, thank you so much for sharing that ❤
I am full of awe and admiration!! Great job!! 🥰🥰🌟🌟
Yay, my daily dose of organization inspo! ❤
I’m super proud of u!!
Great job. Congratulations! I'm so proud of you.
i am at home with covid and did mine yesterday,felt so good, hubby said oh no that means you will want to go shopping!!
Absolutely love this video. Very satisfying to see a decluttered closet. My closet is about 1/5 of your size, but I think this video has motivated me to clean up my closet too as I don’t even touch most of my hanged clothes.
This was so good. That beginning was so relatable
Former minimalist here. Your approach helped be bag for donation more than half of what I touched in my closet immediately upon taking the hanger in hand. Thank you!
All I did for the "category" was call it "the things in this stack I just grabbed". LOVE how well organized you manage to be with so many belongings. I lack that skill, and admit I would rather not have to develop it.
One of the best closet declutter videos I've seen! Wish it was longer!!
Yours is the first one I've Watched that follows though with what you determined before hand for the number to declutter.yay!
Great job Jordan! This helps me understand some of my maximalist kids. It is always interesting to see how others do things. The sheer amount of clothing for one person... mind-blowing. We are a family of 12 and have less between the 12 of us than you. (We aim for 6 pants, 6 shorts, 6 long sleeve, 6 short sleeve, 2 church, 1 swim.).😊
Hi Jordan, I also organize my clothes by the purpose. Church Clothes together, Holiday Clothes together, Vacation, Family Celebration Clothes, Grubby Clothes together (Clothes to wear only when doing laundry, housecleaning, outdoor yardwork, (seasonally).
Love that, great tip!
I just did this in my closet & my dresser drawers. I have two bags ready for local church gove away. Feel so good about getting rid of things. Im a minimalist but not by nature, by years of having to. I live in a 660 square foot apartment, so trust me no storage, well very little. So proud of you, great job 😊
This was so fun to watch you did great Jordan 😃
You rocked that girl. It'd be cool to see a part 2. But I know it's probably a lot of hard work doing all that and filming. Sometimes it's easier just to get in there and get it done
Love your method for decluttering. Super helpful 👏. Thanks for sharing! 💗
This is such an amazing video ! 🙌
I can see how this is very helpful. I'm gonna do this when I come back home from grocery shopping ❤
As a minimalist with a capsule wardrobe, I love this!
Thank you for the motivation to do the same with my closet! Every day I stand in my closet and stare at all the clothes I have, yet maybe wear 25% of them. 😳
Very relatable! We all keep those things "we might maybe wear again someday..." but do we ever?!
Just start doing it. I started over a year ago and things that I'm bored of stand out so much now and I get rid of things straight away. It's a real skill to learn. You can do it!
Definitely a great motivational video to get me going again with my decluttering of clothes. I love the idea of getting rid of 50%. My rule is: 1 new thing in, then 2 items go into the donate box. Eventually I will have a manageable closet. Thanks for a great video.
You go girl!! Amazing!!!
Maximalist and ADHD here as well. I was surprised how many of the things you said were typical of “us” I identified with. I literally just told my husband this week that we are purging our closet and I think this #-based approach might def work for me! Wish me luck. 😬😄
Yay! This was such a great vid! 👍
The friends shirt 🥹 especially with Matthew Perry’s passing ❤❤
Loving setting a number 2!
Never thought to declutter that way!!
I usually just stand in front of it and hope for inspiration!!! And then go get a glass of wine 😂
Definitely going to do this !!
🤣
😂
I love your videos!! I enjoy decluttering videos!! I too have been on a journey decluttering my mountain of papers and tons of clothing. Took me awhile since I work full time but I'm getting it done!!! I've gotten rid of some many of my clothing that now the clothes that I kept fit in my small closet!! All my clothing is now organized and I have space in my closet. I only buy clothes if I need something. I also conquered my mountain of papers. That's way way down too.
You did a great job!!! You decluttered so many clothes in such a short amount of time.
Thanks for sharing. My mom did the same thing to her bedroom closet and gave 3 large bags to near by group homes in the next state. Group homes need clothes more then the "Goodwill" does so that's what she did. Good way to donate.
Set a Number - GENIUS!!
Purging the closet... that had to have felt SOOOOOOO good in the end!!! I actually like your concept of getting rid of half of each clothing item, very smart. For the extra hangers, I would put them in the old laundry room so that it would get rid of the temptation of getting new clothes all the time. I wonder what would happen if you try this purging method on the kids' closets, or even Bubba's closet? Keep it up!!!
I've cleaned out my closet before with the Marie Kondo method, but never got rid of the amount that I actually want to. I tend to hold on to things 'just in case'. This is actually a super smart way, to just get rid of half of it! Another way that I have heard of, that is apparently really helpful, is to grab the clothes out of your closet that you 1000% absolutely LOVE and wouldn't give away for the world. That way you can look at the things you love less and (apparently/hopefully) realize you don't actually want and/or need it. Gonna try that and your method soon. Loved the video!
Hi Jordan - Great plan and execution. I'm a maximalist living in a home for 30 years. I don't want to leave a mess for whoever outlives me. I'm going to start next week and see how it goes. I can't find a free hanger or get anything else in my areas. Tee Hee. Thanks for sharing and have a great trip. Love PegEgg
This reminds me so much of Dana K. White's container concept, only with numbers!
This is great to do every few months. You did amazing - and as someone with ADHD, less helps me make quick decisions.
I love this closet clean out? So much motivation! I need to tackle my clothes soon. I have so much I don’t wear. I tend to wear the same items over and over lol. 🩵
Good job. I realize that I need to figure out what colors look good on me and then do the same thing to my closet. For a period of time I bought what was easily available instead of figuring out if I looked good in it.
This is so refreshing! Just went through my horde of sweaters and purged half! Then did scarves today. Is this what it feels like to have everything fit in one place?! 😅
Whatever budget strategy I see on UA-cam,I always return to yours😂❤I love it!!!
This was such a fun video!!
I have adhd and your little explanation there in front of your closet- soooo right on. I feel the same overwhelm and have to structure everything in order to stay somewhat organized. I dig into my closet sometimes and look around and suddenly im surrounded by a HUGE mess. But how? I was trying to organize! Lol
