Hi team! 💜 Hope you enjoyed the declutter 😄 feels nice to have these items gone from my stash, on to people who are going to get way better use out of them 💪 If you wanted to see more videos like this, we have a playlist of them over here: ua-cam.com/play/PLFmDbK4-NLnn87Y-nK1W05SGCKhZhiIWi.html
Are you selling any of this by chance? I’m a single momma and I can’t typically afford anything journaling, would you be willing to part with some for a price? Sorry to have to ask over here
Yeah there were certainly some pieces that I had more of attachment to than others, but going with the main question of “do I actually use this?” was really helpful 👏💜
You probably already made a decision on them, but the graphite pencils could be donated to an art teacher. It would allow students that can't buy the items to be anle to use them and learn more about them.
@@JashiiCorrinI'm a former art teacher. I needed pencils the most 2 months before the end of school. They could use all your extra markers, stickers and any blank/unruled books for students to have sketchbooks. Happy donating❤❤❤
Additionally if you can't find an art teacher or don't have time. Any office supplies can often be put in a box and posted for free. I do this in my local Facebook group (most towns have them now) Every time I've done this I have gotten a mom needing art supplies for her kids for school
You did a great job, that disclosure of items made my jaw drop. Things have a cost to keep. The space physical the clutter, cost of storage solutions, cleaning and most of all your head. In our head clutter can be stress. Less is more. Perfection is not the additions. Perfection is when there is nothing left to take away.
My apartment complex has a donation drive every few months for the local school teachers. They take any art supplies, used or new, and it's been so helpful in decluttering because I know everything if going to a good home and will definitely get used. I also get a kick out of the image of a bunch of feral elementary school kids going wild with some of my name brand supplies, like Crazy Barbie style.
Haha 😝 if it makes you feel any better, last time I did this I said I was going to get rid of the sticker books and they ended up staying in my drawer for another year and a half 😂
I am also a stationery freak! I also tend to get emotionally attached to things or the memories that the things evoke. Whenever I start a declutter project anywhere in my house, I start with the areas that I know I want to get rid of a lot of stuff. Once I'm in the mode and vibe of tossing out and I feel so good about the process, I'm more likely to toss things in the next area that I may have hesitated over. If I start with stuff that requires too much struggle, I get stuck and overwhelmed and the project is over! Good job!😊
We have a great time 😄 every so often we organise a wider Wellington meet up too for other bullet journal enthusiasts 💪 haven't done one for a while actually 🤔
Going through a group/set of things like a pack of paper or stickers and only getting rid of some sounds insane, but also intriguing to me lol. I’ve never even considered that. I can’t imagine doing it but I can see how it could free up space. I’ll keep that in mind! There’s always stuff I don’t like in sets!
The way “The fuck it buck it” is now forever part of my everyday life from now on! At first I thought I miss beard, I love it!! 😆 close to something we used to say when I was in the army, but now it applies to stationary?!? It’s the little things lol😅
It always feels so nice after you declutter and get rid of things you won't use. It also can be a bit inspiring looking through all your stuff. You did a great job! 🎉
January 2024. I get most of my craft supplies free or second-hand. At Thanksgiving, I gave some kids a bunch of craft items I didn't use. I gave another pile of scrapbook papers to a local seniors program. I just got more beads, yarn, and papers given to me. I like to see new color schemes, to get ideas. I do mostly paper crafts and occasionally beading. Near Chicago, USA. Tina, Al's wife
I know this video is 2 weeks old, but UA-cam recommended it to me cause I love a good craft room destash. Lol. One way to keep your offcuts organized and with the paper pack is to glue a piece of paper to the back of the paper pad, making a pocket to put the smaller cut pieces in. Hope that helps! great job destashing!!
25:25 Ow! It hurts to see that because I was also hoarding my dried up/used pens for more than 6 months. This is such a good video especially it's December so we can give these things away for people to actually use them. 😁😁
I stumbled across your vid while sorting out my own stuff and gosh you are inspirational! What you said makes full sense and it was a blast watching you. Thanks for making this video! ^^
I appreciate this video so much! It's nice to know that other people keep and stash as much as I do. I've gone through some changes in what I craft and how I plan, so I am inspired to declutter. Thank you!
Most welcome! 💜 totally feel you on changes happening to the way we craft and plan; a few items that I got rid of were very much "I must have this" in the moment, and "I really don't need this" now 😝
My teenager told me yesterday that my bedroom looks like a craft store (she even pointed out the different sections of "bullet journaling," "cardmaking," "Cricut," etc). She was roasting me but I also took it as a compliment :) I am in need of a declutter/reorganizing though... thanks for the inspo!
I think it would be a cute idea to fix up the notebooks for gifts try to make it a more reasonable amount and it would also help you use up some stuff. loved your video 😄
about the ppt tapes there’s a lot of people who combines them in ringer binders! and uses different types of pages to organize them and it’s fairly easy to see all the designs instead of using little bags :D
@planningwithkay did a huge declutter/giveaway last weekend and it was a blast. We were literally on live with here for like 10 hours between Saturday and Sunday. I’m sure people would be willing to pay the postage from NZ for some Beautiful stuff!
I do love live decluttering 😝 we’ve done my washi tape decluttering live twice now 💪 for this one I opted for Timelapses though cause it was very much a multi-day project 😂💜
Thanks for posting this video! I was having a down day and you inspired me to get out ALL my art and planner stuff and 'play' with it by organizing. Even made some of my own 'blind bags' to get myself to use things I've been saving. So thank you for helping turn around a down day!
I am so in awe of your declutter!!! My weakness is stationery, especially pens. Pens can get surprisingly expensive, especially when you enjoy fountain pens and corresponding expensive ink. I would probably have a collection the size of yours if I didn't also have an inexplicable tendency to not having a lot of things. It's very hard to explain. I have a craft shelf and if I can't fit my things on it entirely, they've gotta go. This helps me with my obsessive need for pretties. :D
this felt really inspiring, i don't have nearly as much desk space but it's really been taken over by Things and i've been putting it off for an embarrassing amount of time because i just don't want to think about it, i think this is now a this-month project, thanks for posting! you did a great job of freeing up space
@@JashiiCorrin thank you! I’ve listened to most of it twice already as I cleaned other parts of my house! Sometimes that’s just me procrastinating the job I need to do by doing other jobs I also need to do 😂 but I’m convincing myself it’s just “making room” for the craft supplies project. I believe me because wow I am a hoarder of your same self-described variety LOL!
Started the vid then decided to declutter along. I am letting go of my acrylographs too. I loved the idea, they're great quality but they were very $$$, had to wait for the paint to dry thoroughly before closing journal and I disliked the nib maintenance which means I don't use them much. My good but going items are going to my teacher friend 😊
The way I need to do this with everything I own but especially my office and I don’t want to😂😭 hopefully I’ll have motivation as I watch to start tackling it before the end of the year!
Loved your declutter. I did my office about 3months ago. I now have it set up in zones, if I want to add an item to it, I have to remove an item. This is hard as I sew, knit, make cards, and of course bullet journal but I find I am doing more now everything has a home.
This is on top of my to do list as well. A much needed, really thorough declutter. Not one the bla-bla ones I've been known to do once in a while ;) The last one of those I did only resulted in me taking a lot of stuff out of the drawers, so now they reside on my desk. Very helpful. Not. ;)
For what it's worth, they sell mystery bundles at a discounted price 💪 www.archerandolive.com/products/individual-pen-mystery-bundle?aff=103 Though those can be Acrylographs ~or~ their other types of pens 🤔
Normally I'd do this process in the weird transition time between Christmas and New Year's 😝 getting in early this year 💪 Hope you can find some time for it too! 😄🤞
Girl, you are a stronger woman than I... I shudder to think what I have and am dreading going through my stationary! lol Thanks for being an inspiration, cause I guess I need to get started and get on your level! XD
This video is my SIGN! I want to have a better system for decluttering my stationery. When it comes to everything else in my house, I can easily decide to keep for get rid of but stationery feels impossible. And starting with acrylographs, the bain of my stationery organization existence! It does feel bad to let things go but it's so necessary sometimes
Can you show storage solutions? And how you choose to declutter I have such a hard time. But like the flat packs I would have never thought! Lol I NEED to declutter but I genuinely don’t think I can knowing how much I paid and everything 😊
I like to think of it as cutting the cost of ongoing guilt for NOT using the items 😝 I know that the ones that I’ve paid the most money for have gone to places where they will actually get used 💪 I like to think of it as a donation to the creativity of somebody else 😝
@@JashiiCorrin that’s a really good way of looking at it! But also I have such a issue about what if I need to use it later. Something specific lol cuz it’s happened and I’ve had to rebuy stuff but it’s only after I think I didn’t need it
@@JashiiCorrin you’ve inspired me to be more ruthless! I’ve successfully plucked out ugly (to me) sheets of scrapbook paper that were trying to hide with the rest of the theme pack, so that was familiar. But today you helped something click for me about how this effect might be at work in other collections I have! Offering a bunch of rocks & crystals to my local giveaway group TONIGHT!
You probably won’t have much of an issue finding homes for the things that aren’t for you. But just in case you’re struggling with the papers, I’m convinced that there must be people who do card making in your area. I use 6x6 and 12x12 with all kind of patterns all the time. So definitely try groups that have those kinds of crafters (PS yes it hurt a little bit seeing you scribble on those Christmas papers 🤣)
Don’t think about what it has cost you! They are now sunk cost. You’re not getting back that money. It now actually is costing you mental space and literal space.
Haha yeah, calculating the cost was less of a self-shame and more of a curiosity point 😝 fully agree on the mental and physical space cost with keeping them! Glad to have as much gone as I do now 😄
Yeah they are a bit hard to come by in NZ which is probably part of why I snapped up so many 😝 most of the sticker books are available on Amazon if that helps! 💜
You can definitely donate the pencils rather than throw them away. When I decluttered I had a massive bag full of pencils, coloured pencils, pens, liners etc that I donated to a woman that did stuff with kids - they can always use normal things like pencils an pens
I'm trying to make room to do a destash right now... so off to moving things around a little to make more room. I'm not sure if you mentioned it, and I didn't see a link for it, but what kind of little drawers did you have the A&O pens stored in originally? They look really cute! I'm at that point right now where I'm taking notes of things that look like they would fit, and then trying to see exactly how much of stuff I have before I can order it for me. :D Ah, a fellow box lover. :P What a good reminder. That you are in the process of destashing, not re organizing. I know I tend to get distracted while cleaning and sorting. Maybe I just need to go through what I have and make piles. Get rid of what I know for sure will leave, and then slowly sort through the maybe piles. Thank you for sharing, and best of luck with prepping for the next year!
Pencils can be recycled as long as they are made from real, untreated wood. Just have to remove the eraser and metal bit. I guess graphite is not an issue for recycling companies.
You did so good! It's so hard for me to declutter hobbies' stuff 😩 Cutting the PET tapes is a great way to reduce the volume, how much time it takes to cut one?
The desk drawers are from KMart: www.kmart.co.nz/product/modular-drawer-organiser-medium-43024209/ And the little risers are from TradeMe 😝: www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace/computers/computer-furniture/other/listing/2607045110
Mine mainly stay on my shelves; a combination of displayed ones and ones that are in my office cupboard 🤔 I know my mum keeps hers on her office shelves too, so that’s the only real idea I have 😅 would love to hear about how other people store them though!
Nothing about this seemingly new enthusiasm people have about destashing/decluttering supplies lately brings me any joy… in fact, it makes me panic - HANDS OFF my supplies, they’re alllll mine! 😂 And I definitely don’t want to give them away, I’m selfish! MINE! 😂 (especially when it’s $2700 USD = nearly $4500 NZD! Crikey girl! 😮) P.S… where did you get those little plastic pen drawers? They’re super cute and I’ve been trying to find similar in NZ for years 🤗
I donate to schools and libraries the “weird” pieces that don’t make sense to gift to sell. Art teachers also use bottle caps and other things that would just be trash (if you glue several caps to a cardboard it’s a paint palette). Domestic violence shelters are also great, esp if you have journals. Give these places a call to get an idea of need. I have teacher friends that cut up the used sticker sheets as daily motivation prizes.
The papers at 22:45 , where did you find those! I’m going for an antique style in my journal/planner next year and it’s hard to find really cool stuff locally here.
When I declutter I try not to think on how much everything has cost because if I were to keep them but still not use them, the money will be for naught. So if they are to collect dust, better sell/give someone else that can still use them. Now that I think of it... I have to declutter my room too... and my wardrobe...
Yeah I normally try not to dwell on it, but it makes more a more interesting thumbnail 😂 the most expensive washi tape was the hardest to let go of, mainly because it hadn’t been me to purchase it, it was a gift from someone else 💜 but I know that it will be better served with somebody else who will actually use it 👏
I was laughing at your messy desk...if you saw mine you would have a breakdown. I'm in the same spot as you with the acrylographs, I don't like them as much as I thought I would. But they work well in art journaling, not so well in bullet journaling.
Oh dear 😂 your poor desk! Yeah the Acrylographs are probably a lot of fun for general creativity, but I don’t like them as much for my style of journaling 💜
It was great watching your destash! Decluttering and Getting rid of favourites in stationary is hardest to do. I'm stationary freak. I'd love to know, if you're not selling or giving away, and planning to donate or throw away any of the stationary. Would you like to share it to someone to another country, who could add it to their collection and use them? I am going to start with journaling and seeing your stuffs feels that it could help me.
@@JashiiCorrin oh wow! I don’t even think we have those here. I’ll take it as a “sign” that I need to declutter more first before drooling over cute new containers 🤭
This is bittersweet! It will be lovely and oh so satisfying to have everything neatly organised but heartbreaking to get rid of things regardless of whether you use them or not! And on a separate note, I hope you don’t mind me saying that you look like you’ve lost a lot of weight!
Ouch! I don’t think I have the discipline to go quite that far, but my bills keep me accountable not to buy (unless it’s Black Friday sale). If it makes you and the recipients happy, good on ya.
Hi - did you try the Ohuhu brush pens yet? (I have seen the box on your desk) considering great reviewes of their alcohol markers I ordered a pack but the brush pen is horrible, just wondering what is your opinion?
I've done swatches of them on the channel, yeah 😄 I've liked them so far (they're the water-based markers rather than the alcohol ones) but I've only done the swatches really at this stage.
Hello from Kansas USA, I am trying to figure out the name of the zippered binder thing you are taking stuff out of at 4:13 minutes in..? .. Can someone help thank you
Hi team! 💜 Hope you enjoyed the declutter 😄 feels nice to have these items gone from my stash, on to people who are going to get way better use out of them 💪 If you wanted to see more videos like this, we have a playlist of them over here: ua-cam.com/play/PLFmDbK4-NLnn87Y-nK1W05SGCKhZhiIWi.html
Are you selling any of this by chance? I’m a single momma and I can’t typically afford anything journaling, would you be willing to part with some for a price? Sorry to have to ask over here
P.S - I didn’t get to mention how much I truly appreciate you and your beautifully made videos!!! You’re so sweet I wish we could be pen pals!!!
Being “held in stuckness” is something I can relate to. You did a great job!
Thanks! 💜 was important to keep the train moving on this project 😝
OMG, taking everything out of the plastic pacakging was a gamechanger for me. Freed up so much space.
Yah! It’s done great things in other areas of our house too 😄💜
I'm very proud of your destash! Getting rid of stationary (and boxes) is, surprisingly, an extremely hard thing to do!
Yeah there were certainly some pieces that I had more of attachment to than others, but going with the main question of “do I actually use this?” was really helpful 👏💜
You probably already made a decision on them, but the graphite pencils could be donated to an art teacher. It would allow students that can't buy the items to be anle to use them and learn more about them.
Good point! 💜 I’ll have to reach out and see if they want them 👏

Oh my, you've put a smile on my face with that last part xD
It's so good to see that kind of local support.
That’s so awesome! 💜😄
I'm saving your video. I will force myself to watch this every time before I make any stationery purchase. lol
I actually love these kinds of videos, they're so satisfying 🥰 you're a lot stronger than I would've been I tell ya, I would have kept everything 😂😂
Haha 😝 if it makes you feel any better, last time I did this I said I was going to get rid of the sticker books and they ended up staying in my drawer for another year and a half 😂
❤ love destashes. The fantasy of being able to be in receipt of the items, priceless.
Yeah, it was nice getting to pass those items on to people and just watch their faces light up 😝💜
I am also a stationery freak!

Good job!😊
100% about working our way up to the "harder to let go of" areas 👏💜
My overwhelming collections are largely not stickers and tape but watching your process helps me think about how to destash my books and nail polish 🥰
I wish I lived closer and was in your bujo group! It would be so much fun!
We have a great time 😄 every so often we organise a wider Wellington meet up too for other bullet journal enthusiasts 💪 haven't done one for a while actually 🤔

Glad you enjoyed it! 😄💜 totally understand having your work space overtaken with Things 👀 the declutter is a bit labour-intensive, but worth it! 💪
Yeah... I didn't have as many acrylographs as you but I still just yesterday pulled out my four favorite colors and the rest went into the donate box.
Heck yeah 💪 getting rid of those ones in particular felt like quite an achievement 😝
This was an exceptionally well made decluttering video. Enjoyable to watch - Thanks!
Thanks! 😄💜 Glad you liked it!
I need to cut up my pe tape washi as well. That's a great idea :) I love watching decluttering videos, even if I'm not so keen on doing it myself.
The PET tape cutting project is going to be a loooong one 😂 but I think it’ll be worth it in the end
@@JashiiCorrin could do it as a live stream, I know I'd watch it.
This is exciting! Will watch when I get back to my cluttered desk and work alongside your narration! ❤

@@JashiiCorrin thank you! I’ve listened to most of it twice already as I cleaned other parts of my house!

Thanks Carolyn! 😄💜 it’s a worthwhile venture if you’ve got the time for it 💪 my office feels lighter 😝
yeeeeeeeeeeees girl, lets declutter together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Heck yeah! 🥳💪

Oh yay! Fellow kiwi! ❤
Loved your declutter. I did my office about 3months ago. I now have it set up in zones, if I want to add an item to it, I have to remove an item. This is hard as I sew, knit, make cards, and of course bullet journal but I find I am doing more now everything has a home.
That's what I was thinking! If everything has a home, and I know where to find it, they'll actually get used 💪💜
We're all here watching going we want that stuff!

Totally know that feeling 😂 this one was a very intentional week of focussed effort 👏 worth it though 💪
I have a crafting thrift store nearby so that's an easy one-stop donation for when I actually get myself together to do a declutter.
Oh nice! I don't think we have any around here 😅 that'd be cool as heck 👏
Flatpacks are ingenious!
Gonna take up so much less space 😝!
Slowly working at my space 😭 this was a huge help and boost of motivation though ❤ thank you so much for your hard work doing all that!
Most welcome! Glad it was useful for you 😄💜
Happy to take the stickers! ❤❤❤
Those are all gone to a local family now sorry! 💜
i would love a set of acrylopgraphs!
For what it's worth, they sell mystery bundles at a discounted price 💪 www.archerandolive.com/products/individual-pen-mystery-bundle?aff=103

Watching this is helpful and encouraging but it also causes me extreme anxiety. lol
This video is my SIGN! I want to have a better system for decluttering my stationery. When it comes to everything else in my house, I can easily decide to keep for get rid of but stationery feels impossible. And starting with acrylographs, the bain of my stationery organization existence! It does feel bad to let things go but it's so necessary sometimes
Yeah, some items I feel really good about letting go of, while others are super hard 😝 Now as they're gone though, it's a net-positive 💪
I'll be happy to be a recipient to any unused
I feel so late, but oh, so excited to binge your vlogmas content!!!
Yay! 🥳 Hope you enjoy them all 😄💜
Way to go looks great! Maybe you could do a givaway in the donations pile , I d love to participate if you do
Sadly I’ve already donated all the goods now 💜 made some local families very happy, haha
These are very inspirational to me. ❤ I love the fuck it buckets 😂
Haha 😂 glad you like those ones 😝💜
Loved this video! Thanks for the inspiration to go through my stuff!
Most welcome! 😄 glad you liked it!
Can you show storage solutions? And how you choose to declutter I have such a hard time. But like the flat packs I would have never thought! Lol I NEED to declutter but I genuinely don’t think I can knowing how much I paid and everything 😊
I like to think of it as cutting the cost of ongoing guilt for NOT using the items 😝 I know that the ones that I’ve paid the most money for have gone to places where they will actually get used 💪 I like to think of it as a donation to the creativity of somebody else 😝
@@JashiiCorrin that’s a really good way of looking at it! But also I have such a issue about what if I need to use it later. Something specific lol cuz it’s happened and I’ve had to rebuy stuff but it’s only after I think I didn’t need it
8:20 “cheerleader effect” never heard of this!
It's an effect I have to watch out for a lot! 😝
@@JashiiCorrin you’ve inspired me to be more ruthless! I’ve successfully plucked out ugly (to me) sheets of scrapbook paper that were trying to hide with the rest of the theme pack, so that was familiar. But today you helped something click for me about how this effect might be at work in other collections I have! Offering a bunch of rocks & crystals to my local giveaway group TONIGHT!
I like all the stickers and the paper and wapi tape and pen and stamp thanks you miss Karen ADKINS from Warwickshire Coventry UK
You probably won’t have much of an issue finding homes for the things that aren’t for you. But just in case you’re struggling with the papers, I’m convinced that there must be people who do card making in your area. I use 6x6 and 12x12 with all kind of patterns all the time. So definitely try groups that have those kinds of crafters (PS yes it hurt a little bit seeing you scribble on those Christmas papers 🤣)
Haha apologies 😂 It was very much a "you're here so I'll use you" type deal 😝💜
Such a satisfying video!
Glad you liked it! 😄💜
Such good insights and strategies. Thanks for sharing!
Most welcome! 😄💜 Glad you liked it!
I have an art cart too!! It's not the same one but mine also holds all my art stuff.
It'd a handy thing to have! 😄💜
I’ve also been trying to purge sticker books that I don’t use & it’s so painful to get rid of them considering how much money I spent on them.
It’s certainly rough 💜 worth it for the drawer space that I have reclaimed 😝 but still one of the painful ones 😅
I declutterred all my stickers and washi and gave all my give away stuff to my nieces. My sister-in-law was thrilled, lol
Heck yeah! 💪 The nieces must be over the moon 🥳💜
very well done video :)
Thanks! 😄💜
Don’t think about what it has cost you! They are now sunk cost. You’re not getting back that money. It now actually is costing you mental space and literal space.
Haha yeah, calculating the cost was less of a self-shame and more of a curiosity point 😝 fully agree on the mental and physical space cost with keeping them! Glad to have as much gone as I do now 😄
Great job!
Thanks! 😄💜
omg those stikers are my dream! we dont have this in brasil
Yeah they are a bit hard to come by in NZ which is probably part of why I snapped up so many 😝 most of the sticker books are available on Amazon if that helps! 💜
In the US pencils, stickers etc can be given to schools
Nice 💪 I’m not sure if they do the same around here 🤔 at least not in a formally organised sense
please do an organizing video too!
I’ll add it to my list! 💜
My biggest problem when I declutter, I re-buy the same stuff all over again!
I have had that happen a couple of times, but only for a few items usually 😝💜
You can definitely donate the pencils rather than throw them away. When I decluttered I had a massive bag full of pencils, coloured pencils, pens, liners etc that I donated to a woman that did stuff with kids - they can always use normal things like pencils an pens
Good to know there's interest out there 💪💜
I'm trying to make room to do a destash right now... so off to moving things around a little to make more room. I'm not sure if you mentioned it, and I didn't see a link for it, but what kind of little drawers did you have the A&O pens stored in originally? They look really cute! I'm at that point right now where I'm taking notes of things that look like they would fit, and then trying to see exactly how much of stuff I have before I can order it for me. :D
Ah, a fellow box lover. :P What a good reminder. That you are in the process of destashing, not re organizing. I know I tend to get distracted while cleaning and sorting. Maybe I just need to go through what I have and make piles. Get rid of what I know for sure will leave, and then slowly sort through the maybe piles. Thank you for sharing, and best of luck with prepping for the next year!
Glad you enjoyed the video! Those drawers are from KMart 😊 www.kmart.co.nz/product/modular-drawer-organiser-small-43024216/ 💜
I could hear Vogel in the background. I miss seeing him.
He'll be around with some of the other Vlogmas videos 😛💜
Pencils can be recycled as long as they are made from real, untreated wood. Just have to remove the eraser and metal bit. I guess graphite is not an issue for recycling companies.
You did so good! It's so hard for me to declutter hobbies' stuff 😩 Cutting the PET tapes is a great way to reduce the volume, how much time it takes to cut one?
I did try to start that project….one tape took over 18 minutes 😂 so that’s very much become a future me problem 😝
@@JashiiCorrin thank you for answering! I'm waiting for a couple of them... now I know that it's for the best to don't let them to accumulate 😅
Great job! do you have a link for the monitor risers and drawers under it?
The desk drawers are from KMart: www.kmart.co.nz/product/modular-drawer-organiser-medium-43024209/
And the little risers are from TradeMe 😝: www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace/computers/computer-furniture/other/listing/2607045110
Omg, I love the fvck it bucket idea, especially the name🤭😂
Haha glad you liked that one 😝💜
Do you have any suggestions on storage solutions for completed bullet journals or empty journals that hasn't been used yet?
Mine mainly stay on my shelves; a combination of displayed ones and ones that are in my office cupboard 🤔 I know my mum keeps hers on her office shelves too, so that’s the only real idea I have 😅 would love to hear about how other people store them though!
Nothing about this seemingly new enthusiasm people have about destashing/decluttering supplies lately brings me any joy… in fact, it makes me panic - HANDS OFF my supplies, they’re alllll mine! 😂 And I definitely don’t want to give them away, I’m selfish! MINE! 😂 (especially when it’s $2700 USD = nearly $4500 NZD! Crikey girl! 😮)
P.S… where did you get those little plastic pen drawers? They’re super cute and I’ve been trying to find similar in NZ for years 🤗
Haha 😂 you do you! I got those from KMart 💜
Really KMart? Dang, I gotta get out more lol
I know, I just panic when I look around my craft room and think of other people touching MY pretties! 😂
I donate to schools and libraries the “weird” pieces that don’t make sense to gift to sell. Art teachers also use bottle caps and other things that would just be trash (if you glue several caps to a cardboard it’s a paint palette). Domestic violence shelters are also great, esp if you have journals. Give these places a call to get an idea of need. I have teacher friends that cut up the used sticker sheets as daily motivation prizes.
Yeah I had quite a few stickers that I would have previously taken to school to give out to students 😝💜 Good ideas for places to donate! 💪
The papers at 22:45 , where did you find those! I’m going for an antique style in my journal/planner next year and it’s hard to find really cool stuff locally here.
Those ones are mainly from JournalSay or Stationery Pal 💪
When I declutter I try not to think on how much everything has cost because if I were to keep them but still not use them, the money will be for naught. So if they are to collect dust, better sell/give someone else that can still use them.
Now that I think of it... I have to declutter my room too... and my wardrobe...
Yeah I normally try not to dwell on it, but it makes more a more interesting thumbnail 😂 the most expensive washi tape was the hardest to let go of, mainly because it hadn’t been me to purchase it, it was a gift from someone else 💜 but I know that it will be better served with somebody else who will actually use it 👏
@@JashiiCorrin definitely, an interesting video too 🤭
DOMO!! ❤ 0:57
He’s a cutie 👏
I wish I could steal all your stickers😂
Haha fair 😝 sadly they've all been rehomed now 💜
I was laughing at your messy desk...if you saw mine you would have a breakdown. I'm in the same spot as you with the acrylographs, I don't like them as much as I thought I would. But they work well in art journaling, not so well in bullet journaling.
Oh dear 😂 your poor desk! Yeah the Acrylographs are probably a lot of fun for general creativity, but I don’t like them as much for my style of journaling 💜
One organizer had her off cut papers sorted into zip lock bags labelled "pink"etc then filed upright
That's similar to what I do with my typical mono-colour off cuts 🤔 should do a similar thing with the scrapbooking papers...
It was great watching your destash! Decluttering and Getting rid of favourites in stationary is hardest to do. I'm stationary freak. I'd love to know, if you're not selling or giving away, and planning to donate or throw away any of the stationary. Would you like to share it to someone to another country, who could add it to their collection and use them? I am going to start with journaling and seeing your stuffs feels that it could help me.
If you got those cute plastic drawers from Amazon would you please post an affiliate link?
Those ones are from Kmart! 😊💜
@@JashiiCorrin oh wow! I don’t even think we have those here. I’ll take it as a “sign” that I need to declutter more first before drooling over cute new containers 🤭
That little jar seems perfect for water. Why don't you like it?
This is bittersweet! It will be lovely and oh so satisfying to have everything neatly organised but heartbreaking to get rid of things regardless of whether you use them or not! And on a separate note, I hope you don’t mind me saying that you look like you’ve lost a lot of weight!
Haha thanks Shanya! 💜 I don't know how true that is, but I appreciate the compliment 😄
I am a box hoarder too. I love stickers though. Did you sell those calliographs?
Nah those ones all got kept; I’m much more of a fan of water based brush markers 😝
Ouch! I don’t think I have the discipline to go quite that far, but my bills keep me accountable not to buy (unless it’s Black Friday sale).
If it makes you and the recipients happy, good on ya.
Yeah certainly made some local families very happy 😝💜
Hi - did you try the Ohuhu brush pens yet? (I have seen the box on your desk) considering great reviewes of their alcohol markers I ordered a pack but the brush pen is horrible, just wondering what is your opinion?
I've done swatches of them on the channel, yeah 😄 I've liked them so far (they're the water-based markers rather than the alcohol ones) but I've only done the swatches really at this stage.
when I had pencils to donate I brought them to a public school and they were happy to have them, they love stationary in schools
Good idea! 💪 Glad to hear they'd potentially be interested 😄💜
Hello from Kansas USA, I am trying to figure out the name of the zippered binder thing you are taking stuff out of at 4:13 minutes in..? .. Can someone help thank you
1st time viewer, know it won’t be the last “fuck it bucket” 😂😂😂
Haha glad you liked that one 😂💜
