I love when she said "this is the point of the process when I feel overwhelmed and regret everything." 🤣🤣🤣
I follow William Morris’ maxim “Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.” works for me
All the minimalist have "tricks of the mind" to weed out sentimental stuff. And all of them are :- do it immediately, no "maybe" piles; do it while you're in the "zone".
I’m a big fan of the remove everything and bring back only the things you actually use. Seems to really help
Omg what you said about introverts and visual simplicity...I felt that in my soul 🤣
It's lovely to see that somebody else feels the urge to visually arrange stuff until it feels right 'cause otherwise it just keeps bothering you. It made me smile :)
I like to keep a box or two of things that spark joy but would make a space too cluttered to have out. Then every so often I'll have a look through the box and switch things up a bit. This goes for my wardrobe and decor stuff.
Visual simplicity! I turned to my husband and said "Is that why I get overwhelmed when I look at a lot of things?!". I can't stand having a lot of options. I get overwhelmed and don't choose. Streaming services are hard for me.
Having read Marie kinds book, I'm surprised at how many people ignore the important first few steps that she says are very important. What you have discovered is what she does first with clients. That's to ask yourself what you want /need feel and envision yourself in the space. Then she asks why. And keeps asking why until your final answer is joy.
I am far more familiar with the feeling of being completely overwhelmed and regretting everything than with the clickpoint feeling.
I've reached some sort of click point in spaces, but not my whole home yet. to me it's a feeling of joy to simply look at that space where before it felt like a heavy burden that was anxiety-provoking. when I want to look at that space and it makes my soul smile, I've reached the click point. I'll get there, space by space.
I have cats. It apparently sparks joy in them to jump up on furniture, swat things to the floor, and clear surfaces. Problem solved. Except for the floors....
"I regret everything." LOL I loved that. Currently going through this myself. Loved the video, very helpful, thank you!
I listened very carefully to what you said about reducing the visual clutter and I may not be getting the correct visual perspective, cameras do tend to lie, but it seems to me that there is not much furniture in your room. Noting the struggle you seemed to have over your open shelving, do you not think that perhaps what you need are a couple of pieces of furniture with doors/drawers that you can close and therefore shut everything away, out of sight. It would give you that feeling at the end of the day of everything being put away, a clear space and all is calm again. The fact that it is all on display is the visual clutter all by itself. I decided in my own home to get rid of all open shelving. Now its all in a cupboard or a drawer.
Very nice video. I enjoyed Marie Kondo's book but the "sparks joy" thing just made me laugh. I can find joy in an old can lable. I got rid of thousands of books and a dozen bookcases. It was painful but SO worth it!
I love and appreciate your honesty - it helps me to feel like I’m not the only one...
Watches Laura do another round of decluttering and admire her "after" images... Immediately starts decluttering my work desk. LOL! Thank you for sharing your ever evolving process and keeping it real!
This was really interesting because as an artist I really struggle with my studio. If I packed up all my books and art supplies I could fit the rest in about 3 boxes. But I'd need a UHaul for the art supplies alone! All art stuff sparks joy, so sifting is hard. I eventually settled on 'does it spark enough joy for me to save it in the event of a fire given I'd have a German Shepherd under the other arm?' and went from there. It still didn't click. Maybe this is what I need to do. Get rid of the definite and then remove stuff that's not sparking joy "in that place".
I've been trying this little by little over the years. My hubby tells me "you don't have to get rid of things I know you love" but I reply, "I know baby but this opens the door for better things for us to love" he smiles and goes back to whatever he's doing.
Just so much stuff! It makes me wish I could be there and help y’all you through some things. One tip: for some memory items ask yourself if a photo would work. For instance I had a few stuffed animals that were my kids faves, but now they’re grown. But they’re sweet memories to me! So, I took photos of my grown kids with their snuggly and turned a sad moment into comedy AND I have the photo. Then I could let the toy go❤️
