Is it changing to “space maker”? 😂 I hope so!
'Space maker' obviously 😂
I am blown away by Dani’s ability to stay focused for so long. I could not have done that. She never complained, never showed weariness. Honestly, so much respect for how she went at it. And you too, April. You just kept going, and kept encouraging. An awesome day’s work ladies.
Couple of shelves at the top of shoe cupboard would be I very good idea well done lady’s 🤩🤩
What she was saying about not knowing where to start - this resonates with me so hard! Sometimes I think you just need someone there sitting with you to keep you motivated and on task - this is so nice to see
Totally!!
Body doubling really helps a lot of people.
I had a friend body double for me on a zoom call. Just having someone to chitchat with made the boredom of the task go away. Plus, I could hold stuff up and ask her whether something was out of style or not. She was going through her own stuff at the same time.
My daughter used to be my "facilitator". She'd just keep me going by handing me the next box or bin, emptying the next shelf or drawer, etc and helping sort into piles. She was great about helping me organize the resulting piles every so often so we had space to keep moving forward. She wasn't pushy about keeping anything, but if I hesitated or she felt I was losing focus and beginning to just keep things I didn't really need or care about, she'd ask a question or two to clarify my thoughts and help me get off memory lane and back on focus boulevard again. I miss that. It just occurred to me that she'd learned how from when used to help her in her room and must have internalized it.
With a mold problem, all the wicker and baskets should go. Molds are health hazards. You'll never get mold out of baskets. Clearing stuff out will help with air flow. She's doing great!
If there’s mold it will be in the carpet, the furniture, etc. I would clean the baskets with a bleach solution and dry them in the sun.
Unfortunately mold in korea is just an everyday thing. It's everywhere all the time! And it looks like she scored a rooftop apartment...anyoutside wall ALWAYS ALWAYS gets mold...and she has 4 outside walls. It's just a constant BATTLE here!
@@LittleClovisshe's in korea? .. I didn't notice 😅
I can't believe this video was over 40 minutes because it zoomed by so fast... I could watch you 2 declutter all day!
That's the best compliment, thank you!
This reminds me of the power of “body doubling,” where you do something with someone else to keep you focused and motivated. Even someone who seems skilled at decluttering needs support!
It's great to watch someone with ADHD get this kind of assistance. I have ADHD, and periodically I have to hire someone - not an organizer, just someone willing, patient, and pleasant, who needs a few hours work - to help me sort through things - to just be another brain in the room which helps executive functioning in some mysterious way. I have also provided this service for other ADHD people. It must be hard for someone with a brain like April's to understand the nature of the deficits that make this so difficult for someone with a brain like mine and Dani's, but she does a great job. I totally understood why Dani was able to let go of things so readily. I struggle with clutter not because I have any particular interest in keeping the stuff, but because I struggle to see my way through chaos. So, periodically, I hire someone to accompany me through it. You did a great job Dani! You, too, April!
Thank you! ❤
@@daniphillips You inspired me! I'm looking for someone to be my April. Thank you!
Hey! Ihave ADHD and I’m curious, what do you look for when you hire peoplefor a task like this?
Love that green sweater on Dani. Getting all the dangly bits away from that window felt like the room took a deep breath! Same for clearing that corner. 😮
Dani's whole world got brighter!
Just because we are fully capable of decluttering and organizing, often the overwhelm is just so real. There is just something to be said for having a person you can count on come into your home and really help you. Everyone needs a helping hand sometimes to hold us accountable and encourage us to get started.
The channel upgrade, Dani's new decluttered space, and the book--there're so many things to look forward to! Also, Dani's skin with no makeup, omg, so good.
Those stars: just about everyone in Sweden has that kind in the windows for Christmas. 🙂 Before the first of Advent: nothing. On the first of Advent: Boom! They're everywhere! 😄
I bet that is beautiful!
When I visited my friend in Gothenburg in December 2018, advent stars and led candles were /everywhere/. She said that because it's dark all the time, everyone wants to warm things up. I wanted to get everyone a star for Christmas, but somehow they were impossible to find lol. Finally I found them in a basement store and discovered that they fold down flat, so I was able to buy a whole bunch and fit them in my luggage super easy. In my house, it is almost always on in the front and center living room window!
@@TheCaitling 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
It's the same in Finland. I have one for every window of my small apartment.
I'm loving this series! I could watch this for hours!
She needs a friend to just sit there and talk to while she does stuff. I need that too. It helps alot.
I love her enthusiasm and the way her house is becoming more of a sanctuary 💗 Can’t wait to see the rest of the transformation 🤗
As someone else with ADHD I understand the struggle, but also love that the process was able to let her hyper focus on decluttering! That was amazing to see 🙌
Congrats to Dani. It looks like she was totally ready to do this, she just needed a buddy and some guidance. 👏👏👏
"I feel like you can do this without me." You underestimate the power of having another person present to overcome the friction of getting started, keep things moving, avoid getting stuck, talk things over, etc. 😅 Dani reminds me so much of myself!
I liked everyone a great deal anyway but the moment Dani carefully saves a little spider is the the moment i loved her.
I love how the pup and kitty were with you both wherever you were. Such a great job you both did!
Between you and Carla Project my house is becoming a lot more spacious and easier to tidy up .... thank you, seriously! My kids room so far has been the one I cleared the most stuff out of, and I'm currently working on my room. I'm not even done and already I feel like my room is so much bigger.
Now THAT was a declutter session! April, you are the brains and calm in the decluttering process! Love this video! ❤👍
I'm so impressed with that you're not pushing people into letting go of stuff🤗 Subscribed!
Thank you!
Dani, you are a marvel!! Im kinda jealous that I dont have more things to declutter now- must be so satisfying to regain such space and calm. Good luck with your homework 🎉🎉
I too am ADHD and so ready to declutter!! But most of the time I need someone near me. Even if my husband is on his computer while I sort my craft, or he plays on his phone in the lounge chair while I declutter the party!
I can do some while watching these videos if I'm by myself, but if I'm very aloneI will not be able to start.
I’m really loving this series! Thank you to Dani for sharing!
Not actually about the decluttering but I so love that Dani gently relocated the spider.
On topic, I'm really enjoying watching the progress!
That green is definitely Dani's colour, exclaimed out loud the moment I saw her.
Was that a Dior Gaucho bag? I have one, stored on wardrobe shelf, we had a water leak under the house and mould in my wardrobe 😭😭😭. The bag was mostly musty smelling, no mould but unusable, I had to pay $300 to get it reconditioned! It now lives on the back of my door, I figure it's the safest place 😕
This is such a satisfying mini series!!
Dani is the KINDEST person and i love that shes plowing through! ❤
Dani, you are a QUEEEEEEEN!!! SO PROUD OF YOU!
I'm making great progress after doing a clothing declutter last year. I've been making small but important choices to let things go, and I am so excited to contemplate having my own space in a workable way.
Progress not perfection! Really appreciate the videos. So helpful!
I love your real life decluttering series like this one. 💕
Witnessing this process really brings home to me the less obvious strengths of genuine help and support. A little guidance and the cheer-leading provided by showing up and being genuinely present - it goes a very long way.
Thumbs up for Level 8 luggage. We LOVE them! We have two 20" carry-ons and have traveled internationally twice with them and will never go back to using any other luggage.
Pausing at 10 minutes in just to say Dani is so beautiful and warm. I am loving this declutter, you’re both working so well together and so hard! Cannot wait to see the end result.
Thanks for the video! Off topic but Dani's hair is so pretty
This is such a satisfying video. Some of your decluttering videos give me anxiety, but I really enjoyed watching you clear all the clutter together!
This is a super satisfying declutter to watch! Can’t wait to see it all organized! Great job, Dani!! ❤
Dani’s green sweater is so adorable! She is making such amazing progress! Also her corgi is precious
Even just the trash going out will feel like a boost after the boost of the tidying of the keep stuff! And then another boost when the donate stuff goes out. Good job!
I can’t believe how much stuff she has in such a little room.. how do you get a restful nights sleep in such a cluttered space. Dani’s doing a great job.
My bedroom used to be that way too, maybe even more cluttered with all the paper piles from my university and part-time job days. Honestly, I didn't realise I had trouble sleeping until now. I've decluttered so much, my bedroom is cleaner and tidier. Now I feel like I'm able to sleep deeper or more soundly and longer too. I am way more well rested and feel happier. Decluttering creates magic ✨
Go, Dani, go! 🎉🎉
I think it is so much easier to declutter with support. I have a family member who needs this, too, and we accomplish so much when partnering for support. So, even if Dani is decluttering faster and more thoroughly than other clients, I can see that she is feeding off of your guidance and support, April. She is pacing with you in response to your feedback and Dani is even challenging some of your questions about keeping items (the pillow is a perfect example). That is awesome!
Sometimes, doing this solo, we get too into our own heads about it and end up keeping items that we would maybe have decluttered with a support buddy in place. It becomes like a therapy of sorts. It is nice to see this because it gives a lot of us inspiration in a different way and shows that decluttering is not one size fits all and sometimes it just becomes that easy to let it go. Great job to you both!! 💝
Love this! Thanks for commenting Kristina!
I really enjoyed the last video with Dani, she is great ☺️ let’s watch this one!!
It’s a lot more fun to do this kind of thing with company😊
So excited for next week, Dani you are doing fantastic
Loving this new series - she is lovely and doing such a great job! That green is a GREAT color on her. 💚
What a transformation!!! ❤
❤ Thanks boo.
oh my god - dani could be me! i can so relate to her style, her amount of stuff and her way of thinking. it is so nice when you help realistic settings to be decluttered an organized instead of the somewhat generic all-american suburbian houses.
and on a sidenote: she is such a pretty woman with a lovely smile 🙈
Huge dent today in that room. She did a wonderful job, getting ruthless & that's a good thing! It's going to be so nice for her to have a room only as a bedroom and the other room a dressing room/closet - storage room. A bedroom sanctuary she deserves. Nicely done!
Starting with the clothes is why you’re the goated Space Maker! Made such a huge difference ❤
It's hard to clean when there IS so much. I'm glad she is decluttering. Well done. Gone on.
omg that room is looking great! I can't wait to see her finished bedroom once you guys rearrange and decorate it. I am really hoping that some of those drawer units can fit on that odd ledge that goes around the outside of the room. That would free up so much floor space for her. I love to organize, rearrange, and redecorate, so I am itching to get my hands on this space!
Love the rebranding name! Quick wins for the win 🏆 As a mom of little toddlers these "quick win" style declutters are honestly the only type I can do while they are awake. But it does make a difference around the house!
Omg, the seahorses she got rid of!😍 So cute!
Hey! I love this video. It's so inspiring to look at the change this brings to her room and her life
I have a suggestion for the room. After the declutter and cleaning is done, maybe all the dressers can be in one line and the clothing rack can be on the right where the vintage chest is. That way she can get a long space above all the dressers for bags Just my suggestion!
The paper stars are an extremely common christmas decoration in Sweden. We hang them in our windows.
Dani and April, you are doing great! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
I think for wintertime the stars are awesome as they have been. Maybe even for the whole year.
Dani has such a lovely energy. I think she's a kind of person that you become friends with right away. Oh, and the cat and doggy... 💓💓 So cute!! And they're very vocal, which I LOVE. 😹😻 Amazing job decluttering, Dani! You did a lot.
She is doing so great at decluttering! 🎉😊 I cant wait for the transformation
It looks like the plastic hangers made it back onto the clothing rack. Last we saw the clothing rack it had space on it and there was a pile of lots of velvet hangers to use for sweatshirts and other things to go back on the rack. I guess more went onto the rack than there were velvet hangers for. The behavior pattern with holiday decor is to not take it down and just add to it. May be best to keep 1 item per room for each holiday making it easier to change up for holidays. It's such a small space that one added item can create the holiday theme itself.
Keeping up with Dani is the problem - she's so quickly going through decisions the video was done at a gallop! I agree with Dani, it helps to have someone start and keep you on course - also it's more fun when things get overwhelming and it seems like all you're doing is deliberately making a huge mess. I love the room you're sculpting by moving out what Dani no longer wants or needs - when you panned around at the end I actually physically took in a deep breath of relief at the space opened up 😊
Chaos before the calm - how apropos. Excited to see more
Watching your videos through the years has equipped me with the power of doing this on my own. However, I like to have somebody there with me to keep me going and focused. Otherwise I'll start playing on my phone or do other things and won't stay on task as long. My place now is 80% done where before it was like Dani's before pictures.💯🤩 Thank you @APRIL for teaching me. 🙂
Dani is great, the cat from the last episode made me laugh. One of the greater declutter episodes. Just subbed keep it up !
I have been organizing my bedroom and closets. It takes so much time to go everything you own, and still doing it! I just admit that the changes are very rewarding. I also gifted myself a new vanity and bureau mirror, along with a neutral but boho comforter set. I love sleeping in there now!
Dani is the kind of cleaner I am. Extremely decisive and unflagging in her determination.
It’s awesome to see how motivated Dani is. I think to easier to projects like this sometime when you have someone else with you. Dawn from The Minimal Mom calls this body doubling. Sometimes I just like to have moral support or some company when I do tasks I don’t really want to do. It looks amazing! You’re making great progress!
Great job, Dani! April is such a motivated! So glad for your new channel. Can’t wait! Hugs to Izzy!🥰👍💜🐈⬛
One if the scarves could be used as a window cover or table cloth as some are large.
Rooting for you Dani so happy to see you making progress.
You both had such a great flow. I loved that you mentioned the goal was to declutter and not to spiral into confusion and overwhelm about how things will work out. Great Job! Dani, I’m totally using that folding method😃
Amazing job, Dani & Space Maker, April!!!
So great to see her progress- Dani's is so positive and cheerful !!!
Terrific job! Thank you for allowing us in your home. Good luck with the homework. I'm sure the girls' seek and keep will be fun! Take care, Linda 🦋
It's great having someone keep you focused. I have adhd and I procrastinate and over think about everything to be done, and that puts me in adhd paralysis and I have trouble getting anything done... or on the other hand, I start in one room and jump to another without finishing the other😫
Well done Dani 👏🙇♀️ you let so much go again. I love the way you roll leggings/yoga pants is genius. The clear spaces are looking great. April you gave a lot of homework 😂 Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 👏👏💪👍🙏💐🦮🐈
She's doing great, the bedroom is looking so good now! I can't wait until the next episode❤
Another gem!
Loving this series. You are so good and so respectful. Looking forward to more as well as the space maker name change.
Great job, I love your channel.
Dani you are amazing ❤
Awesome progress! ❤
She’s doing wonderful!
I gotta admit, as much as love the videos that you made with your mom, I have been loving these with Dani even more. I love her personality. It has been so much fun watching her apartment being de-cluttered. How did she get all of that into her little apartment?? (no judgement) LOL. I hope that she paints her bedroom a nice pastel color other than off-white LOL. Great job, April and Dani.
They're not helpers, they're four footed supervisors. When we had cat's, they used to follow my husband around and watch him do his yard work, etc 😸
I’m rooting for Dani!
I love Dani's series so far! A beautifully designed and decorated home is being uncovered ❤
That was a lovely job, well done guys. You decullered the room so well.
Great progress , love how things are coming along
Soooo good! Cannot wait to see it all finished!!!
I am loving this series! I said this last week and will say it again this week. I really want to be there with you! I want to be right there cheering and clapping as Dani lets things go! She is amazing!! I am so excited for the reorganization and yet, I don't ever want this serious end! 🤣🤣🤣
Maybe you could offer similar services to your friends and loved ones. Everyone needs a helping hand every now and again. You seem motivated to be a good helper 😊
Dani is so cute here 26:26!! The way she looks at you then at the camera and smiles OMG!!! I love these videos, how long and detailed they are, how slow and encouraging you are with Dani and of course how she's totally on board but just needed that little push to get her started. I feel like that's what most of us need, not just about decluttering but everything really, that little healthy encouragement. Good job and good luck!
Love your helping Dani declutter
The bed would be awesome against that window vertically. It would make the bedroom more open.
Man, she did such a good job. I wish I could let things go as easily as her!
Great job Dani 💪🏼
Absolutely love this! It itches in my own fingers to clear this space and to see clean surfaces....it is way easier to ceep clean when its less stuff everywhere....I think Dani is amazing in the way she declutters - direct, very determined and with a great attitude. cant wait to see more! Expecially clearing the door!
She did a really good job!! And she has the best contagious laugh. I’m sure she feels tons better getting all this done. 👏🏼
i feel like having that ledge all around the room makes is so hard cause all any furniture must make the room feel small when its a foot away from the walls. i would just use closed bins on the ledge over dressers that hold bins
I was thinking that too, the ledge would drive me nuts. I would need to arrange everything so it could all fit up on the ledge
You are so right about gifts from students! ❤ so jard to let go. My mom started shrinking her scarf collection in a brilliant way: she wraps gifts in scarves in lieu of wrapping paper!!
I'd never thought of it but, omg, I now have like 12 extra scarves to deal with, BUT she's gifting others and who doesn't love a gift in a gift? Worth a try
