- MESSY TO MINIMAL MOVING EDITION! Extreme Declutter & Pack With Me To Sell Our Home! HOMESTEAD PREP
We bought a homestead! And now it's time to pack up our little starter home to sell. Come with me as I go through the "hot spots" of the house and do extreme declutters and pre-pack before we get our home on the market!
If minimalism has taught me anything it's that preparing for the future by decluttering things out NOW will save so much time and headache in the long run.

You are SOO inspiring! I can't wait to declutter while packing too! We just decluttered our garage and I can't tell you how many items we have hung on to for ... no. good. reason.
Awwww! You are so sweet, my friend! Everyone does it! Can't wait to see what you do with the new place, Kim! 💜
Good luck with both of your moves Kim and Natalie! So happy for both of your families finding their dream homes. It will be such wonderful experiences for those kiddos. Have fun letting go and packing for the new place!!! Love following your journeys.
@@jacquiedenotter4227 Yes! I m so happy for both of them. Love from Sweden.
I’m looking forward to seeing your move decluttering video also.
Two of my favorite girls!!! I’m so thrilled to watch the adventures of both of you. New homes! Hooray!! All the work but glorious satisfaction:)
This is timely for me too. I'm beginning to judge my need for things by HOW MUCH MAINTENANCE is required to keep it. Helps me get rid of even more. One of my big challenges is to find ALL my tools. I have so many duplicates of hand tools. I have already had my 2nd home. Now I need to downsize for old age. I need a ranch like yours only smaller and less yard. I ALWAYS get something done after watching you
I stumbled upon inspiration clean/organization videos close to a year ago. I was frustrated with things falling out every time pantry door opened. Phase one, I decanted some items with containers on hand. Fast fwd, I purchased more containers this summer, more progress. Recently final 2 steps for me...another shelf and declutter bottom/floor area. Success.... I find myself leaving the door open to 'enjoy' as I walk by the pantry. Thanks for your inspiration.
📦moving to this acreage 30 years ago started my decluttering. you have inspired me to declutter to the point where now I csn be creative with fsmily pieces that were stored away. Im quilting up and i corpoating two lace tableclothes made by great grandmothers to get them out snd being loved.
Love your messy to minimal and decluttering videos. You and your family are so real and I'm so happy for new adventures in the new house. #premierfam
📦 Hey girl! I’m not moving but love the way you declutter and organize your stuff! Looking forward to do this at my place
I’m so happy for you and hurray, you got those closets in order 😀
I love your declutter videos! It is how I found your channel last year! But I stayed for the other awesome content and just wholesomeness of you and your family!! 📦 #premierefam
📦 #premierefam I’ve loved all of your messy to minimal videos and all things decluttering because they are just the motivation I need to do some much needed decluttering at my own house. But I think my favorite video to date was the one with your mom at Mother’s Day. I LOVED everything about it and am still keeping my fingers crossed for a podcast with you 2 in the future 😉
I’ve been loving your videos lately Natalie! 💖
Great job! I'm always shocked by how quick house moves go in the US. Here in the UK you couldn't do it before it's listed or when an offer has been accepted as it takes around 6 months on average to move. (It took me 3 months as a first time buyer and that was fast) x
#premierefam + my faves are favorite things and day in the lifes
#premierefam love the videos about kids homeschooling
📦
Not sure what I’m doing here. I‘m german, I’m not married, I don‘t have kids, I’m not even religious but I love watching your videos & I’m looking forward to all the new house content! Thank you for your hard work! You seem like a cool person! 🤍
Same 🤣 but i'm dutch 🙈
Haha! Everything happens for a reason :)
Same! Not married, no children but I love this channel
I feel very similar! I'm an unmarried 21 year old college student, yet I find Natalie's content so inspiring!
Same 😂😂😂! (Exept i'm from switzerland)
When you started talking about your Christmas pillows and blankets, I got so excited thinking about your first Christmas in your new home with that little fireplace in your living room 🎄
I always roll my eyes over the minimalist idea of not having a food stock. I lived in an area where we had almost yearly ice storms and/or flooding and would be cut off from town for a week or more at a time AND we would not have power or running water. So I always keep an extra month of food and water on hand.
I agree. I love minimalism and try to practice it in many aspects of my life. But food storage is one area where I will not budge. It is too important.
Currently helping my fiance slowly move his things from across town to the first place we will be sharing as a married couple (wedding this weekend!!) 😄😃📦
congrats!! and good luck with the move (I’m hoping for good weather for your wedding!)
Moving into the house you'll grow old in before you're 30 is huge! Congratulations - you're way ahead of the curve! #premierefam
When my Mom listed her house, the realtor had her remove all attached wall shelves. She said people comment on the need to repair holes and repaint, so it’s best to go ahead and remove most of the shelves and art off the walls. She also had to remove all family photos. Her house looked weirdly bare to me but it sold really fast. Hoping your house sells fast, and you enjoy your new home! My home has no linen closet, we keep our extra sheets and towels in our bedroom closets. We don’t own many so it doesn’t take up much room.
I love the Bro-tein label in your pantry! Small little quirky things like that give me so much joy in my own home. :)
That little clip of Hailey and Liam (I think!) running in the new house gave me all the feels! 🥺 very happy for you and your family! So many happy memories to come in the new place.
Thank you Natalie! Every Monday when your videos come out I do my weekly tidying and it makes me feel so much better. I finally understand how to clean because of you.
The Elliott Homestead here on UA-cam is a favorite of mine to watch. She gives great advice and I think she'll be a helpful resource giving different ways about providing foods to store and grow. I cannot wait to see what you all do, the holidays, just see you become yourselves in the space you've always wanted.
I'm so excited to watch this!! We just moved on Friday into our forever dream home and we went through this decluttering/packing stage just recently! We are of course still finding things to declutter! But it will be so worth it. Cheering you on, Bennett family!
Your Messy to Minimal series has been so inspiring! A year ago I was feeling overwhelmed in our current tiny 2/1 house and couldn't figure out why. I stumbled across one of your videos and it was so eye opening! It took me another couple weeks to actually start (I can be a perfectionist and wanted to make sure I was "doing it right"), and a year later, I have zero regrets! Thank you for the real inspiration and the encouragement that it doesn't have to be pinterest perfect! #premierefam
📦 I heard this saying awhile ago that says feed two birds with one scone rather than kill two birds with one stone. Your comment made me think of it!
Thank you so much for your inspiration and your kind personality!!!
We are about to move, too (not voluntarily, I’m afraid. Our landlord kicks us out because they need their house back), and I am so so glad I took the inspiration from your channel to start declutter my house in the last months already. It already will be so much easier to pack, and just like you I will continue to declutter while packing. I don’t want to take a single piece into our new house that we don’t use on a regular basis…
All the best and much strength for creating the home you want in your new house! I know it can be exhausting.
Can’t wait for your next video! Best wishes from Germany!!! 🙋🏻♀️
Thanks so much for taking us along on the journey! It’s so fun to see you guys’ excitement as you make this change. ❤️
Not to bring sadness to a fun vlog, but I know many of you are good people of faith ♥️.
Please pray for my sister and her husband who just buried the baby they unexpectedly lost at 35 weeks pregnant. They are so strong but I'm asking anyone I can think of for prayers for their healing ♥️♥️. Thanks, guys ♥️
Praying!!!! I'm so sorry.
Oh goodness.....I am soo sorry.. this is just so heartbreaking. Praying for your sister and her husband, you.. and the entire family. Prayers for you all for healing. Saddens me.
Remember that this beautiful little soul is perfect in every way and is with our Savior. Honor this baby and give this little one a name. In the end we will all be reunited💕 Blessings to you all and stay strong.
My fiancé and I just bought a new house ourselves last week! ❤️ So excited to be on this journey along side you and your family! 🥰❤️✨ Such a blessing 🙏🏻
Yay!!! Us too! Happy for you!
So happy for you❤❤
Great video…I was sad when it was over. Natalie, you have such a warm, loving spirit that shines through in everything that you do. Can’t wait to see how you turn your new house into your home ❤️.
LOVE MOVING VIDEOS!!!
We just moved to New England, Moved from a 1400 square foot home to an 800 square foot apartment. Let's just say we decluttered a lot and I'm a minimalst, lol.
Best of luck to you all.
HOMESTEAD WHAT ?!?!?! As if I didnt already love you enough and the joy of simplicity you bring to the table now you are adding this..... YAY!!!!! I just love everything you do!!!! It really is a blessing seeing someone so pure and genuine!!! You help me feel normal :) On another note, my biggest love and support for you comes from how you are a Christian and I see God's love shine through you and your family! Love seeing yall ! My video I would love to see is a sit down chat about being a minimalist, mom and wife as a Christian and what impact it has on your spiritually. Do you reference to the bible for discipline for your minimalistic lifestyle? Do you homeschool your children with biblical reference? I guess what I'm saying is a DAY IN THE LIFE biblical version haha :) I know it's a mess reading this! You really are a light and source of encouragement. Thank you #premierefam
Ik this video was posted awhile ago but I just wanna say this is helping me a lot because I’m moving too! So this video is very motivating and helpful for me, and also congratulations on the house again this was a while ago I know that, but still. ❤
I used your Messy to Minimal series for motivation while I was moving house back in Feb/March 2021, so exciting to see your process!! 💛
I decluttered while packing too, wish I had been more ruthless. The can dispensers remind me of my “gimmicks and gadgets” closet my husband jokes about, the trail of discarded organizing things I had high hopes for, before I realized the answer is much less stuff. God bless you and your family Natalie !
"My question is, why do birds have to die in order for stuff to get done?" Such a good question that just made me laugh! :D Totally enjoying this video so far and it makes me so excited and inspired for our move next year! Wishing you all the best for the rest of your move!
I like feed two birds from one hand!
@@dianeosullivan4445 oh that's a good one! I have to remember this! :)
My niece uses "feeding two birds with one scone" or "flling two birds with one scone". :D
I'm moving into my first apartment!! I'm so excited but at the same time i absolutely hate packing so this is so helpful 📦📦📦📦📦
This is the first "premiere" on UA-cam I've watched and I'm 100% on board with the fact it's Natalie's 🤣❤
I absolutely love messy to minimal episodes. For a future video, u can do a Q&A + Mukbang with Weston
Lots of love from India ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just went through a move this summer. It was a good restart to decluttering, and the new house is bigger but we are really set on keeping our inventory low if possible.
Another benefit of decluttering before the move is financial, as moving companies often charge based on the weight that is being moved, as well as on the mileage and labor hours.
This was so inspiring. I was sitting and watching this at first and by the end, I had folded a load of laundry, put it away, started another load and started going through my twins clothes to donate (ahhhhh so much clothes)
#premierefam I LOOOOVE your “Get it All Done” vids. They help me get going on my to-do list every time!
It may be too late but a packing tip is to ask your local grocery store for some free boxes. Better for the environment, better for your wallet!
When I get a notification that you have uploaded a video, my happy time begins 📸❣️🍊♥️🥳 .😘🥰🤩❤️
If you do stay on some PR lists, you could always donate the new things you don't want as well! :)
Moving in two days, I knew this video was coming (after your House-vlog) and I am READY! I don't want to bring anything other than what I actually want and need! Can't wait to get into your lovely new episode
Moving does help declutter and keeps one honest with themselves. 📦
We just went through this process and I actually used the decluttering Co-Lab with you and Dawn the Minimal Mom to full me. We got rid of like 60-70% of out stuff. It is all so much work selling and moving, but soooo worth it! Best of luck to you!
Thank you for always saying "extra screen time is okay." I always feel badly about it when we have screen days but it is one of the only ways I can get big cleaning done. I recently have decluttered our basement some but created a declutter corner that all of the things in that corner will be able to go! Working toward a simplified life. I enjoy watching you for motivation!
This is such good timing, we are starting the moving process ourselves and I need all the motivation I can get! Thanks for being here and for keeping it real! Congratulations on the new house! 💗🍁🏠📦
Natalie, I agree with having the stocking of canned items etc. I have tried to minimize as well but have always had a prepper area. Every time I buy groceries I will pick up a couple things to keep building and it restock in the constant revolving of putting the new to the back.
I love watching your messy to minimal videos! They are so motivational & put some pepp in my step even on days when I’m feeling sluggish. Thank you so much for sharing your family’s minimalism journey! ♥️ 📦 #premierefam
LOVED this so much!!!! More moving/decluttering content!!!
Coming right up! Check back Monday for our moving vlog!
I'm 30 and I love oak cabinetry. Lol.
#premierefam so excited for you! I love this video! My husband is a Realtor and I’m going to share this video to his page!
So happy for you. I’ve been trying to move for a year- during COVID. We packed up everything and moved to the In-Laws- with no way of decluttering as all the charity shops were closed because of C-19. I dread to think what the decluttering will be like when we finally get into a new house and unpack…
I decluttered a ton over the 2 years prior to moving the last time, and I was eternally grateful for it when it came time to actually move - with the help of 4 friends, it only took 2 1/4 hours to move everything to my new place (granted, I only moved 2 blocks from where I was, but the last time I moved was only 2 blocks, too, but it took weeks to move by myself because I just had so much stuff, so it probably would have taken at least a few days even with help), and even while packing up, I was still separating things out to pack up as donations (the thrift stores near me weren't taking donations at the time, but the ones near my parents were, so those things went with me when I visited my parents that Christmas), so when I had moved in, there was a nice big pile next to the front door of donations for about 3 months. Every time I send more bags/boxes of donations back with/to my parents', I get a high - every time I send more back (and clear out my "stuff to declutter" drawer and shelf (hidden away, since I'm a cricket), I know that when I have to move next, it'll be even easier/faster than the last time.
My boss says feed two birds with one piece of bread.
This is always my favorite way to start off a Monday! ❤️
Girl I am actually moving right now and you are an inspiration. We are so unprepared and are probably just going to end up throwing things into a truck last minute because we are way too lazy.
Your realtor is so lucky ; your house is so clean and cleared out for being shown. Is there any way you can build in a coat closet and linen closet in the new place? 📦
I love watching decluttering videos and also diy home projects. Praying for you all as you move. Congratulations!
We're moving in a few weeks and started decluttering when you did. I am SOOO happy we did that when we did!
Loved this video! Decluttering is such an incredible feeling. I am working through our basement right now!
This is amazing, thank you!! We’re in the process of moving to Los Angeles and I’ve been trying to find more minimalist packing/moving videos - they’re pretty hard to come by apparently lol Most of the videos I’ve seen are just people throwing all their stuff into a box for moving.🙈 It’s refreshing to see you purging stuff as you pack - very motivating as I go through this process. Wish you all the best with your move!!😄💖🙏🏼
Can you please do a food update, as far as the healthier switches you've made?
I just moved (2 days ago) and my nerves are shot! Thank you for saying that moving can be exciting and nerve wracking all at once. I’m so grateful to be in our new home. It’s such a blessing to my family, but getting all the movingly parts to fit together…man it’s a lot! I should add that I have a 9 month old and my husband travels for work and hasn’t been here for any of this week’s craziness!
Our family is anticipating a move in the next couple years; my husband and I were discussing it this afternoon. While I was during the UA-cam version of channel surfing I remembered your moving videos. So I’m back for a rewatch! Thank you for your content, I’ve enjoyed watching your new homestead come to life (literally)!!
#Premierefam I can’t wait to see a unpacking video where you try to figure out where things go. Then! A few months later one where you show if things are still in the same place or not.
I love watching you declutter! It makes me so motivated to do it myself. Also, I love packing/moving videos, so this is so exciting! 📦📦📦
When I get a notification that you have uploaded a video, my happy time begins 📸❣️🍊♥️🥳 😘🥰🤩❤️
#priemerefam I have loved your messy to minimal series but I would also love any renovation project videos you get into at the new place 🥰
📦
You've definitely inspired me and given me encouragement to declutter my home. The freedom of having less items to take care of and not worry about is such a relief. So thank you Natalie 😘
#premierefam I love your videos on simplifying, homeschool, practical life type stuff! I came here 3 years ago with your pregnancy videos with Hailey and now I’m also rewatching them during my current pregnancy (with a little girl). Your videos helped me so much in nursing school too as an escape. We also have a small house so I watch all the time while I declutter!
📦 I love how real you keep things! Our kids are 6, 3 and twin 15 month olds, we've been in our house for ten years and just really started decluttering in the last year. We're praying to hopefully move in the next year so this video is inspiration gold! Thank you!
How cool that all your previous decluttering brought you to this moment where you can move without all the overwhelm and now you have so many tools and practice to make this process easier
Natalie, love all your videos! You are so unbelievably organised 😍 Would love to see an organisation video on how you plan your work/family life etc. How you make lists, organise your day/week/month, organise your time and so on. Much love and thanks for the inspiration.
Congratulations on 300,000!!! That's awesome. God Bless you and your family in your new journey in your new home.
We kind of consider ourselves pretty minimal as well. We bought our forever home in April, the house is about HALF the size of our previous home. So we obviously had to get rid of a lot of things/furniture. We did part with a LOT of stuff.. but when we moved to the new house.. we ended up getting rid of even MORE. It’s crazy! Lol
#premierefam
I always love your messy to minimal videos! I discovered you when you posted your very first video in that series and it was a big part of how I stayed connected to the world while I was recovering from my second c-section with a newborn and one year old and my husband deployed. You have brought me so much joy. Thank you.
Oh my goodness I love you🤣 “why do birds have to die in order for things to get done?”
#premierefam my favorite is declutter videos! I found you because of hailey's closet declutter 😊
My favourite videos that you've made are the Messy to Minimal or decluttering videos. I even watch your kid ones, even though I don't have kids!
Congratulations on 300k and the new house! I'm really looking forward to seeing how you've set up in your new home and the renovations! ❤ #premierefam
Natalie! I love the sit down and chat videos and "my favorites" videos. One of my favorites was with your sweet mama. #premierefam
📦I need to declutter my closet. I decluttered my makeup last weekend and it’s so nice! I’ve realized that my mental health has a lot to do with the environment I am in. When it’s clean I feel better and are able to study! Can’t wait to declutter!
Natalie!, I made my own tomato soup using 2 cans of dice green and red tomatoes. It was so good. I don’t think I can eat Campbell tomato soup again.
I love to watch the declutter and organizing videos, specially the ones around the house. Like this one is. And I would like to see the continuation on the new house, how you are going to organize, because I'm moving too, so I need the inspiration 😁 #premierefam 🥰 wish you all the luck and happiness in the new home 💖
I really need to get motivated decluttering because I am having a relapse 😂, thanks for talking while decluttering because I can’t just sit and do nothing all i need is to listen and if you are showing something then that’s the only time i have to see in between.
I wish I saw this video before moving a month ago ;-; I just packed up everyhing and am still decluttering boxes I'm unpacking.
I'm new. I've been binge watching all day. I'm moving in a couple months so enjoying watching your process. Your husband is very good looking guy. You make an adorable couple.🥰
📦📦📦📦📦 I'm getting closer to my goal of 70% decluttered!! 🥳
Neat, neat! Those shelves over the doors. I have books over the den doors.
Didn't think about other storage. Only I would cover the bins, ect. (I did for my larger pots, cake carriers, and equipment that is on open shelves. Kept dust off.)
I moved 1-2x a year pretty much my entire childhood so when I'm decluttering and trying to decide if I want to keep something I always ask myself "If I was moving today, would this be worth packing and carrying out to the moving truck?" Even all these years later that question still does the trick.
Thank you so much 💓 I appreciate your though process to declutter while packing. I wish I would.have done.it, but I am decluttering now and getting rid of so much
So we are moving from Europe to Atlanta next year, I´m already pooped :-D I need all the informations about moving and packing only necessary things! Thank you for your video :-) 📦🌎
📦🎁🤗 I’m in the middle of Reno/moving in! My sweet hubby is a one man handyman so it’s a slow process but cannot wait to unpack my goodies! Someone said it will feel like Christmas when you unpack…little did they know I used Christmas wrapping paper to wrap last minute items! 🤣 So if you need a tip use what you have to wrap stuff in ie. towels, old wrapping paper, hand towels, blankets, sheets, etc… use waste cans and hampers and laundry baskets to haul stuff in to save on boxes.
Thank you for the inspiration. We are about to move across the country from Texas to California. Moving van comes in a week!!!! Lots of decluttering for us. 🚚📦
