  • #declutter #clutterfree #minimalism 5 Phases for decluttering your closet and maintaining a clutter-free closet in the future. How I declutter now, after over 10 years of decluttering. While I'm not an extreme minimalist, I do use minimalism as a design tool for our home and for peace of mind. Decluttering, being more intentional about the items we buy and choosing to own less overall, can transform our lives, reduce stress and anxiety, while saving us time, energy and money.

    I still watch the 2012 Declutter series when I clean. I repeat less stuff less stress when am decluttering. It’s been a great mantra to remind me.

    I admire your minimal style Christine. I've never seen a woman decide not to have even one dress or skirt before! I like the way that you do you. Women use clothes for emotional fulfillment, but it's never ending. The less I think about clothes, the more peaceful I feel.🌼

    @sbazeghi 9 місяців тому +74

    So great to see your organization and declutter videos and yes, more please! :) You have always been my favorite from way back in the days of your "less stuff, less stress" videos! You were way ahead of the times with doing minimalism before it was a trend! Love and appreciate you Christine! xo

      Thank you so much for all of your support over the years, it means a lot to me! I know these little habits and mindset shifts have changed my life, it's exciting to see it working for so many others now too. And yes, absolutely I could do an entire new updated series of declutter/organizing/minimizing videos like these. 🥰

    this was a lovely and calm video for doing something we all need to do.....also I find that these tips are very helpful for me.....I do tend to hold onto items because of good feelings associated with them - even tho I don't wear them anymore - so this reminded me that its okay to let them go....thanx for this! ♥

  • @theemarydee1610
    @theemarydee1610 8 місяців тому

    I, too, will go back to your first few declutter videos. The best part of them is your inner dialogue that you shared with us. You were frustrated then disgusted by all that you “collected”! You broke the internet and started others, including me, to let go of the madness of keeping all this stuff!!!

  • @libbylibbyloulalou4041
    @libbylibbyloulalou4041 8 місяців тому

    I was in my early twenties in college and drowning in stuff. My family would make me feel so guilty for letting things go even if they had no use of anything I no longer wanted. I saw your decluttering videos, the “Less Stuff, Less Stress” series, and everything just clicked. I let go of most of my stuff and only kept what I loved, and I’m so thankful. My husband and I are more minimal and intentional with our belongings, and it’s made the biggest difference in terms of moving apartments, cleaning, and even what we purchase. I know this is a dramatic comment, but I am so thankful for your content and advice, and you inspired me to go vegetarian and cruelty free as well. Thank you for being you!

    For the colder season, I had only black pants and jeans. I finally got some tan pants I'd wanted. I then divided my fall/winter stuff into stuff that wd go better with tan and things that wd def' go best with black. I have 2 very narrow closets, so now I can 'closet shop' in 2 dif spots. It's made things so much easier!

    Haha so many I thought "no that's cute keep it or give it a try". Thought that bright minty top would look great with white pants or shorts too. Personally, I keep old stuff that have some small holes just to wear around the house, for PJs, or for cleaning. I get attached and can't just toss quickly without thinking lol.

    This is one of the best closet decluttering videos that I have ever watched and I have definitely watched more than a thousand - no exaggeration here😅 (they are my favs). It includes the best tips for the decluttering process and helps reminding oneself of why you don’t need to buy more clothes. And it is also very aesthetically pleasing to watch and I also like your calming voice☺️ Thank you so much for it!
    Btw, can you please do an updated skin (and hair) care video? The last one I found is already 3 years old😉
