You guys are the best! Thanks so much for watching and for all of your kind comments. It's been a few weeks since Carla came over and I can honestly say I haven't regretted or missed anything I parted with, and I'm thrilled with the way my place feels now that it's fully decluttered and re-organized. I thought I'd done a lot of decluttering on my own over the past couple of years, but I never could have gotten over that final hump without Carla. So, the moral is: Get yourself a friend like Carla who will help you find the fun and freedom in letting go, and who won't judge you for holding on. Ask for help when you need it. And remember: Easy does it!
You are just lovely Michael! How great that you are enjoying the results of your, and Carla's, hard work.
You had such a cool place to begin with and it looks even better now. Thanks for letting us come along. You are adorable.
Thanks for inviting us into your home. I know sharing your space isn't always that easy.
You and Carla did such a great job! So great to have a friend to help you out with the tricky stuff 😊
You are an absolute doll. Strong work! Enjoy your refreshed space.
Carla - your declutter with friends videos are probably my favorites. Michael has such a nice personality - easy going and friendly. He did a great job and it was so much fun to watch. Thank you, Michael, for inviting us into your home. ❤
He’s the best! Thanks Susan ❤
This is so true ❤😂
“I kinda wear this, but I kinda hate it”….goes into the keep pile hahaha. Loved this declutter ❤
HALL OF FAME COMMENT!
Relatable 😂
It was so much fun to watch! ❤ Great decluttering and organizing! ❤
I totally had an ah-ha! Moment and hung my head in shame. Guess what I’m going to do this weekend? Much love, Brisbane Aus
More MENNNs!! It's so refreshing to see how a guy navigates clutter; he's adorbs!💙
He is right about not having stuff under the bed.. bad feng shui.. he even says he can feel it..
He’s so cute and funny! I was amazed at how much came out of those closets but he did an amazing job making decisions and letting go! AND, he didn’t torment you with a story about EVERY item. 😆
I thought the same thing!!!! He didn’t go on and on about each item!! Yay lol
Totally! He looks like Josh Harnett
Men need to declutter too! And even someone as organised as Michael still needs outside help sometimes. One of my Mums decluttering goals was to never keep stuff under the bed.
My boyfriend really needs a good declutter. One of my icks is disorganized books, and he has books in three different rooms, kind of jumbled. A book on glaciers next to a Bob Dylan book, books by the same author in three different rooms, etc. He has a split entry house, so no basement to store his extensive camping stuff. His fishing and skiing stuff is in the rafters of his garage. He NEEDS to downsize that since he's getting older and not doing the things he used to
Well he’s absolutely adorable. Ya’ll did such a good job and I know he has to smile now every time he open a door!
Carla find someone who does a craft declutter….because I’m laying on the ground re-evaluating my life decisions because I refuse to get rid of glitter 😂
HELP ME 💀
All your friends are so cool, Carla! Always love to see another Declutter with Friends episode. Also Michael has great taste - the bears roasting marshmallows pillow is iconic
Michael is adorable. He was so ready for this and got things done. His closets look great. Looking forward to another video (or two) with him.
I love the variety of clients you have had so far! Anyone someone can relate to in their clutter. 😊
I love this perspective on the decluttering process with Micheal as a 3d tier decluterrer. A tidy person who is just tweaking. Thank you both, another fantastic decluttering with friends. We are lucky Carla has so many friends!
Carla, your music choices in the videos are amazing. I never feel the urge to check my phone or get bored, you always keep my attention in the video with voiceovers, subtitles and great music. I can say you really have good editing skills. As an individual with adhd it’s really hard for me to focus on one thing to decompress and your videos can achieve that. I genuinely thank you for your content ❤
Thank you soooo much!!💗💗💗
You have such great friends. I am still amazed at how easy it was for him to get rid of things. Men are different. 😂😂
OMG, so much better, the closets are far less chaotic, more neat and organized🌻It's amazing how much stuff we put into a closet rather than deal with it. Closets are like little tiny rooms of indecisiveness, can't decide shove it in the closet, can't cope shove it in the closet etc. Michael probably feels so much better.
What a gem of a friend! It was awesome how much you were able to help someone who is already fairly decluttered and organized. Your fresh eyes really helped clarify how the closets could function even better.
Goodness me! It was a feat to keep up with Michael ! I had a vision of you desperately holding onto his bed to stop him from packing it up into a declutter bag 😂 Wonderfully done - you could tell Michael was so keen to get his space tightened up. He has a lovely home and his keepsakes are wonderful and eclectic and deserve room to shine. I also adore his memory box where he popped his grandmother's letter back into. Please thank Michael for sharing his journey with us.
This video was so much fun to watch. Michael made Decluttering look like a walk in the park. He looks like he’s such a fun friend! The IDs were so cute, 😂😂😂 at the mug shot. Please do another video with Michael.
Nice job! This was a fun declutter to watch - the speed with which he made decisions, wow! I love how you folded the shirts & stacked them upright in the bins so every shirt is easily seen and accessible - you have such great ideas, Carla. Enjoyed this declutter with friends.
I'm originally from Iowa, so it was nice hearing about that. I laughed a little when he said he had enough around the house grunge clothes. ( we all have those and love them )
Yep most of my wardrobe 😂
I’ve been working from home the past 3+ years…and the amount of tshirts, yoga pants and oversized grandpa cardigans (that I also use as bathrobes) are ALL that I wear….and I even go out to the grocery store, movies or errands in that same uniform. Basically I’m a slob but with a whole closet of beautiful unworn clothes. I am going on a trip in two weeks and have been trying on all the beautiful clothes to take….(and discovering what fits my body today). I hope I can shift myself and start wearing the nice clothes a few days a week, even if it’s just to sit on my couch and watch a movie 😂.
@@RobinLNJ I'm in the same boat! I used to dress up all the time, but since the pandemic I hardly use any of the nice clothes I have. I have a conference coming up so I'm going to be brave and start wearing pretty outfits again. With that being said, I prioritize comfort now, so my fave clothes look nice but feel like pajamas. Anything else I've been donating/selling
@@RobinLNJ I have to make an effort to wear nice things too. I do wear something decent when I go out of the house but at home it's definitely not good. As I get into middle age I go more for comfort and ease overall.
"declutter with friends" (and/or family!!!) just is the best. Besides of your friends always having the best stories, they are so much fun PLUS basically a podcast AND apartment tours included - whats not to love! Its basically everything i want from UA-cam and more 🙂
Yeah, I like including the apartments when possible because it’s always fun to see the inside of someone’s place and how they live and what their favorite things are😍💖
@@TheCarlaProject ...i wonder if it would make sense to tag/caption it like such? The Apartmenttour? People seem to like them :-) Anyway thanks so much for your content, its the best
After watching this video it seems we all got the same impression of Michael being a huge sweetie. Thank you for sharing!
It's satisfying to see he takes such good care of his apartment and amount of things, and still has the need to declutter :)
Really good video. I can't believe how much stuff was in those closets, then the amount he decluttered...fantastic job!
Loved this wonderful declutter! Michael didn’t even try things on and knew they were a NO! Unlike me, today I went through my summer clothes and had to try on every single thing to make a decision! ☺️
That was fun seeing a male perspective. Great job 👏
Hi Carla & Michael, That was fun to see him rip through his items. Great job Michael. Loved your declutter. Cute apartment too. TFS. ☮️💜 from Wisconsin
Great work Carla and Michael! Michael, get a framed print to hang over that ugly electrical panel box in your bedroom. You could get a matching print and off set it above and to the left. No more ugly wall.
Yes!!!!
It always amazes me how much stuff you can get in those small closets ...but I also think this was the only closet in the 1930s that people had and they didn't have a clothes obsession like now.
Amazing episode! His will to get rid of what he no longer needs and the songs played are outstanding! ❤❤❤
Gotta say the “awkward blue” chair was a fav! Love the bear cushion that went with it! Great pieces
'FAUX BOSE' HEADSET FOR THE WINNNNNN!
What was so inspiring about this is that he loves every piece in his home.
This was awesome!! Men declutter so differently from women. He has so cute and funny toooo! I like him and you guys are so fun together. I’m gonna watch it again! Hehe!! 🫶🏽🫶🏽
OMG! We were at (Southwest) Texas State at the same time! I even have the same study abroad ID, haha. Greetings from an Art Department alum. 👋
How cool is that!!
Hey, Bobcat! 👋
You have lovely friends❤
I like him, he's cool, good personality. The storage closet, the bins stacked on the one side, works well: just make sure they're labeled so he knows what's inside each one. You guys did a great job! He's fortunate to have 4 closets to contain his items and be able to organize. It was nice to see a man get organized, refreshing change!
Why can’t I declutter like Michael?! 😅 I take so long to think about it.
This was great. I have never seen a true man declutter. Sometimes a woman will help her husband but that is different. I loved this.
This was so satisfying! I'm feeling lighter just watching this!
And that jacket goes really great with the Madonna ball shirt!
The belt got me lol😂
Your mate Michael was oh so ready to declutter! I can’t believe how much came out of the wardrobes and how fast did the declutter happen…it was wonderful to watch. And of course Carla, he was under your tutelage to he knew he’d get a great outcome. I love your work ❤❤❤
Wow! This was so satisfying to watch. Inspiring. Your friend did such a good job. I start at Crossroads and the Buffalo Exchange before donating the remains to Hope of the Valley (homeless relief). Another good cause.
Oh good one to know❤!
My husband is a hoarder and he refuses to donate any of his clothes. My husband has a lot of papers, clothes, coats and miscellaneous stuff. My husband doesn't wear all of the clothes and coates that he has. My husband's stuff has taken over our living room, extra bedroom, our bedroom and our shed that's outside. It's so much that I don't have space for my stuff!! I'm always donating my clothes and shredding my papers.
Michaels home is neat and tidy! Great job decluttering Michael!
Would he notice if you “cleaned out and donated” some of his things? My husband doesn’t notice so I definitely get rid of his things lol
If he’s not an actual clinical hoarder,(cause that’s a whole different level) then something that worked with my husband was, I emptied his five drawer dresser out on our bed in order.(contents of smaller socks and underwear drawers up near the pillows and then downward) Then I folded everything that was recently from the dryer and what I knew that fit and he loved and put them back in the drawers Marie Kondo style filed.(like what Carla did at the end of this video.) I left all of the ripped,stained,too small and just plain tacky in little piles on the bed like the order of where they were in the dresser. When he came home, I pointed out that I hadn’t gotten rid of ANYTHING,showed him the orderly,not overstuffed drawers and why the other stuff was still on the bed. He was so stoked about the neat drawers and that all this was already done,that he kept maybe three more things from the bed and let me get rid of the rest!🙌🏻 Sometimes it’s just too overwhelming so they shut it down before it even starts. If he were willing to let you do this method with other stuff,it would mean a lot of work for you but SO WORTH IT!👍
@@lauramitchell6725 this is such a great idea!!!
I would not be able to live like this. It's not his wife's responsibility to clean up his hoarding. He's the one that should be doing it after and with a therapist specializing in hoarding. It frequently begins to happen after a Trauma. This is why a therapist specializing in Hoarding is very helpful because they work with the person through that trauma and help them make realizations in order for them to let go of things that serve no purpose including keeping their objects within the space they have in a way that is healthy and safe For everyone who lives in the house.
If your hubby truly is a hoarder (which it sounds like he is,) he will need some therapy to help him. My Dad was one and my Sister too! Get help now before you can’t move around anymore in your home. Good luck!
This was such a fun declutter. I loved his energy and that he was ready to let go of so much, great job Michael and Carla.
I learned something that might be helpful for your friend. I had a queen size poster bed in an average size bedroom, but wanted a king. I thought it would never fit, but was so desperate for sleep, that I decided to get a king anyway. However, I got a new headboard and did not have a footboard. Wow! The room looked larger with the king, and I now know that the posts on my former bed were visually chopping up the room!
Great advice!!!
I loved Michael’s story about his house plant.🥰 Carla you’re lucky to have some real interesting friends and they are so lucky to know you.🥰
This was just amazing. So much can fit in closets. They didn’t look so crowded, but wow, they were!
Nice job!
Oh Michael, I have plantar fasciitis too and had to give up so many favorite shoes! But, Plantar fasciitis is so painful, I know I can’t wear them anymore. And, I do calf stretches morning and evening. It’s a pain to always have to do those stretches, but ha ha, planter fasciitis is a lot more painful. You did an excellent job of decluttering and organizing. With of course, your wonderful helper!
I had plantar fasciitis at one point in my life. But for some reason it went away. Maybe that will happen to Michael. 😊
@@sherryhudson9075 It goes away, but……it can come back. Hopefully yours never will.
Carla, you have the best connections! I love all your Declutter with Friends videos, and I especially love Michael. He’s such a natural on camera! And maybe because he’s from Iowa and I’m a lifelong Minnesotan, but I could totally relate to him and feel like we’d be friends IRL. His apartment is so cool!
Yes! Midwest charm. He’s a true gem of a person!! Lucky to have him as a friend💖💖
a no-nonsense declutter, not contemplating about every little thing too much, I like it!
How are all your friends so sweet and fun?! You have good taste in people, and so do they. 😊
I enjoyed this so much.🥰
Glad you enjoyed it!
When I saw those wire hangers, I knew Carla would have something to say about it, and lo and behold😂😂 This was great to watch! That bedroom seems like a feng shui master's nightmare in terms of navigating all those doors/windows and still having room for good bed placement. The bed is definitely a statement piece, I can see why Michael wanted it.
lol I can’t stop myself 😂
@@TheCarlaProject Never change! The wire hangers must be stopped! 😆
I love that we got a declutter with a guy. I have to say that Michael was pretty ruthless. Like him, I don't keep stuff under the bed because it impacts my sleep.
On another note, Vans look great but aren't very comfy and have absolutely no support. I have a pair that still look new so they'll be getting donated.
He did such a great job! Way to go!
Loved this ! Your friend is great! Now to declutter my wardrobe! 🇬🇧
Thanks Carla for another awsome declutter video❤ Thanks to Michael for allowing us into his home.❤
I also have plantar fasciitis and it’s sooooo difficult finding good shoes 😢
Awe…Micheal did great! I found it very interesting to see how Micheal instinctively knew the clutter needed to be away from his sleeping area but…what was behind the doors was gnawing at his brain. I don’t know if this will help but I have used HDX shelving for some small spaces. There are lots of brands of these shelf units. They are made of metal and you can add base wheels to some. I have a narrow one in my small laundry room and I stack a couple of small see through bins with random items and some household items like my printer and a small carpet vacuum/mop/shampooer thing and a small tool bag. The shelves are adjustable and having a shelf keeps me from stacking containers on the floor. I have a feeling Micheal will declutter even more. Carla, you have the nicest friends 😊❤
Well Done Carla and Michael be well🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Pulling all the stuff out of that one closet was most definitely like the clown car. 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Tetris master! 🤣
His heater-on-the-wall matches Carla's!
lol 😂
😂😂😂😂
Great job Michael, thanks for inviting us along Carla!
I love the declutter with friends series! Michael is very neat. Thanks for sharing! Please get some moisturizer on that leather couch.
That was a great declutter to watch! Loved it ❤👍😀
I loved decluttering with you and Michael on this Sunday evening. You two are a great team!
A very successful outcome and Michael had a brilliant attitude to decluttering. Well done to both of you and enjoy the freedom and lightness Michael.😊
That fact that he still feels the clutter from his move 6 years ago is insane but common. We moved very fast(2 weeks heads up) from a situation that was bursting at the seams to down sizing and tons of stuff going into storage to "go through later." Every year, that went by weighted on us even though my husband did an amazing job organizing and tetrising items into storage. Arranging and rearranging for access. One more move and almost 5 YEARS later!!! We are finally going through our home and storage to declutter. I have watched many of your videos in this process, and I love you so much! You are my favorite to watch❤.
This was fun, Michael is the best. Love how efficient you both were, it was a joy to watch.
You are so kind when you do this. Love your content.
Historical fiction is my favorite genre of media. 😊
I am really impressed with how decisive he was and how much he let go. Great video ❤
So much fun to watch this one! Fantastic job! The donate/trash/sell piles were huge and the after photos were excellent. I think I'll do some more decluttering this week. Thanks for the inspiration! I hope you both have a great week!! 😊🐦
Well done Michael on letting so much stuff go and showing us your beautiful apartment. Carla you always make it look easy and like so much fun. Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 👏👏👍💪🙏💐
Oh my goodness, he is so wonderful!!!! I loved this video so much. You two have such great personalities together. He was a decluttering MACHINE!! HE GOT IT DONE SO FAST AND EFFICIENTLY.❤😊❤
This was a fun one. I love how efficient it was!
Great job he was letting things go so easy ❤
I just watched a video… that said we are all decluttering wrong…. And should pull out all we love and wear only… then go through what’s left…. It was refreshing and felt he need to share 😅😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
wow Michael seems to be the most speedy speed declutterer!
Love how he blew through the decluttering! I want to be him 😊❤️ goals!
That was awesome to watch! I was screaming use vacuum bags for the pillows, I guess you didn’t hear me. 😂😂😂
Wow! That was excellent. It must feel so good to get all that stuff out of there. Wow! Wow wow!
Loved this episode. Michael has great taste in decorating his apartment and you both worked very hard to declutter. Awesome job.
I so look forward to these motivational videos Carla!!! I just helped my mom with her wardrobe today and it was so fun 🤩 Thank you 🙏🏽
So glad! 🙂
The clothes closet is deep enough that you could put several hooks on the front left side wall.
A command hook and small picture to cover the electrical box would be a nice idea.
I noticed the gray box right off. It would annoy me to look at it every day. First thing I thought of was to get a picture to cover it.
Life is so much better delcuttered! Another thumbs up.
I can't believe all that stuff was in his closet. Good job letting go...
Carla, this is for future consideration:
One thing you might want to investigate and think about is setting a maximum number of clothes that you will keep. Then when you buy something new, you have to get rid of one item or a similar item. Like if you buy another pair of black pants, you get rid of an older pair of black pants.
There is a Japanese woman who helps with decluttering and that is what she does for her personal closet. She only keeps 100 pieces of hanging clothes - that included summer, winter etc.
Yes, most organizers already know about the Konmari method, I think Carla mentioned it in one of her videos a while back. But it’s also up to the person/the client, in what they want to keep. Some people already follow her method and some people don’t agree. A lot of people like to have a lot clothes or just need a lot of clothes for their job and daily life. It’s not going to be easy for them to get rid of anything right away. It’s great that Carla is friends with most of the people she helps to declutter and reorganize their life. 😁
Michael is so charming and you two have such lovely energy and rapport together. It's obvious you're hanging with a friend but also that both of you are motivated to tackle that declutter. Amazing what all you got accomplished (and as someone who lived in NYC for a long time, I understand/applaud the struggle of one small apartment having to be all things for all needs in life).
I'm a woman and my decluttering style is very similar to his! I might tell you a story or two, but overall it's head down, sort and decide. Outlier? lol
Outlier and dream client!!
Every week there's a pile of books and magazines for the library. There's an ongoing bag of clothes to give away. Off-season clothes are in suitcases. But at least
there's no pile of papers or recycling. I enjoy sorting through stuff. Tina, Al's wife
What an enjoyable video!☺️ Michael was so decisive and quick to categorize the value and utility of his belongings. 👍🏻 Plus, he has such an open and collaborative personality. Carla, you and he functioned together like a well-oiled, high speed, efficient machine‼️💯🙌🏼 Excellent process, awesome content, dear lady‼️🥰🥰🥰
Glad you enjoyed it!😄💖
This was a great video. I would love to see a large home office or paper-focused declutter in the future.
A fun and satisfying video. Thanks Carla.❤
Loved, Michael...great job, Carla 🧘♀️! Tonya
Glad you enjoyed it!!
He is the perfect declutter client haha, extremely satisfying result!
I totally agree!💖
He had a whole NYC apartment in his closet ❣️❣️❣️🤭
Love it! You and your friends have a wonderful energy. Thank you Michael for opening your home for us to be inspired to declutter and organize our closets, you are appreciated.
Love the story about his plant! ❤
Great series and I love Michael's personality too! If it makes him feel better about parting with the leather jacket, that type with so many details isn't so in style right now. Minimalist leather jackets are more timeless and he'll get a lot of decades of use out of that type instead.
