I really like your videos. I like that you talk at a medium to slower pace and almost never say “um”. I like that your voice is melodic without being shrill. I like hearing your thought process when making decisions; it helps me think about my decluttering decisions more carefully. I also like your videos with your mom. You might be the best decluttering mentor on UA-cam for the middle of the road non-minimal, non-hoarder person. Thank you! 😊
Looks great! Please do more clothing decluttering in future with some advices on how to declutter new clothes that you recently bought, maybe thats just me, but i sadly buy stuff i need to get rid off
I love all your videos. After watching this video I declutterred my closet. It’s about the same size as your closet. My husband gets half. I put winter clothes away. All my clothes fit on my side. I have 27 pairs of shoes, that includes sandals and my slippers. My daughter-in-law wears one pair of croc black sandals every day. Even for special occasions. I wish I could be like her. I don’t have a lot of clothes and I wear all of my clothes. But I don’t seem to be able to declutter my shoe collection. I only carry one small black backpack as a purse. So no handbag obsession. Thank God! Thanks for inspiring me to declutter my closet.
My daughter decided to declutter her room this weekend and I can't believe how much she's found to part with in clothing. As she grows, we don't replace everything she declutters - so this naturally minimizes her wardrobe over time
I took off my sliding doors years ago and I have never regretted it!!!❤ My clothing actually goes with the aesthetic of my bedroom so it has inadvertantly become decor😂and it makes me keep the closet neat because it's always on display!
Hello, Grant and I joked that if we had more beautiful clothing we could just keep the closet open LOL. I have seen some homes done in your style of an open closet and it can look really nice =)
I never understood the packing away of seasonal clothing..i wear tsnk tops and hoodies all year... but you guys did a great job!i love real video's like this😊
I mostly only pack away winter things like big jackets because we only need them for such a short time where I live and we don’t have a coat closet. I keep all my clothes year round in my drawers and closet. I guess I prefer to have the current season stuff hanging because it’s easier to get to. 😊
I also love using comforter and blanket zipper bags, to store linens and clothes. They are water resistant, dust proof, and see through, so its easy to find what I need. ❤
I keep a decluttering basket too and switch out my clothes seasonally. I live in IN and it's such a joy to put away the heavy winter things every spring. I love the curtains instead of those awkward doors. I just did the same thing to my washer closet. It is so much better!
I love the honesty on loosing weight after having babies and getting rid of things that don’t fit instead of keeping them and waiting for them to fit. I had a baby last year and I’ve started letting go of things that don’t fit while actively trying to lose some baby weight. I found that it’s keeping me from feeling sad and bad about myself. ❤
Since Levi is my third baby I had a little bit of perspective behind my decisions. And I really think it's important to have some clothes that fit after we have babies. When I had my first I remember crying because nothing fit for so long and at the time I was weirdly against buying anything and I remember feeling terrible. Now I know eventually things will fit again it just takes time and if they never fit again that is ok too. ❤
Have you ever used the space saver bags to store items? Once you suck all the air out (using a vacuum) the bags are only a couple of inches high and stack on top of each other. The also have small ones to use for traveling! The bags save so much space and are very easy to maneuver.😎
I did exactly the same, except my top cupboards were hard to get into also so the whole front came off and we did floor to ceiling curtains. 2 years on I still love it.
We took the doors off our fitted wardrobes 20 years ago and have floor to ceiling net curtains. We first used net curtains over the mirror doors in a previous property and it looked so good, that it was one of the first things we did when we moved here. Actually, we were discussing whether to remove a few of our internal doors the other day, as we never use them.
You two are so cute together, make a great team :) and what wonderful job you did with this project...looks a lot better and I bet it functions far better, too !
Awww, that was so sweet of your husband to give you a kiss while you were recording. Good team work on getting the closet done! Oh, I really like that art picture of the dresses! The gray curtains look great!
Yes, you have a lot of clothes. But I think when you found your style and your body’s finished changing a lot (after babies) you really can add to your wardrobe. I am one of the „don’t purge, wear it out“ minimalists. So I still declutter slowly. But I already start adding clothes that fit to my current lifestyle and body (but will still fit when I lose a few pounds ;) ). Especially dresses will not wear out that much as jeans, go with minor weight changes and serve you many, many years when your able to switch between them regularly.
We took off the sliding doors and hung spring loaded rods with curtains. Almost always open, but when we need to cover the closets, easy to slide closed. Send those doors on their way!
I was laughing about the jacket situation! I grew up in So Cal (Lancaster) and moved to Michigan when I was 12. I'm 62 now and STILL every Spring I want to put on my sandals while still needing mittens 😂! Excellent closet transformation. I'm now keeping a decluttering basket at all times. It really helps! Well done, Shannon. Hi 👋 Kathy! Grant, too...
Nice job Shannon! It's always nice to get projects like this done, making a space more accessible and usable. We took all of the sliding doors off of the closets in our kids' bedrooms, but didn't put up curtains instead it's just open haha! My daughter actually has her desk in her closet to free up more space in her room. Thanks for sharing this project and your decluttering process with us!💖
I love your family! small updates are better than getting into debt to do remodeling and updates, in my opinion. I would have picked the white curtain, but you said it is temporarily.
I have had a mixed experience with command hooks. In some cases they have worked great but other times they have done a lot of damage to the wall when we couldn't get them off. I have also had a few times where they fell off. I think because our walls have a thick texture they don't adhere very well.
A tip you may know... My husband put double rods into our closets. One on top and one on the bottom. Double the storage. I fold my dresses over the hanger at the waist and they hang wrinkle free. Love your videos, Shannon! ❤
Having your home function for you is the most important thing . Looks fine and especially if you have plans down the road to majorly change it . Bravo using curtains that you already had . Good job .
I did the same thing with the closet doors in our house! We could never reach certain parts of the closet, and the curtains are way easier to use! Yours look great!
I really like the change. Those large sliding doors would make me feel claustrophobic when trying to access my things. I know it’s temporary, but it’s a really nice solution for the time being. Now you’ve inspired me to declutter my closet and switch out my seasonal things! 🤗❤️🙏🏻
Yes that door would drive me crazy ! I just built a New home and a huge walk in closet with one wall with built in shoe boxes . No doors . It's open and actually makes the room look bigger. You'll love it .! Love from Texas
Off topic but will you show organization for your art/painting supplies? Or how your mom organizes hers? I’ve got a closet for mine but have the wire shelving for mine which isn’t ideal. Love all your videos.🙂
You've added not only function but the curtains soften the wall. I removed bi-fold doors from a laundry room (actually a closet with the w& d). Hung a curtain and it looked great! Small changes are so much fun!
Rubbing candle wax on the top of older timber drawers will help them slide easier. If you use scented wax melts instead of candles, the drawers smell lovely.
Shannon, you will be amazed how much of a difference having all the same hangers makes! Maker sure the hanger part swivels, it’s easier to put stuff away. Also, hang everything facing the same way, looks sooo good! And I love the doors off!
I really like the redo looks like it will function so much better than the doors being there, I prefer the curtain look to the doors on closets. I like the shirt you're wearing so cute!
I also would've chosen the gray curtains - since the fabric is a bit heavier they hang/fall (?) very nicely, their color matches quite well with the walls and there's no gap at the top as it was with the white ones. Aside from that they make it look as if they'd been there from the beginning instead of the sliding doors. Using curtains with closets actually can be a style choice these days as well 🙂 It's great you were able "shop your home" and didn't have to buy new ones. Grant makes it seem so easy when he repairs/transforms things around the house and it's always a change for the better! PS: The light blue dress you were wearing at the end looks so nice on you, the color is very flattering and the style is cool 👍
I’m here in SoCal too. I love ❤️ your closet without those doors. They were kind of an eyesore, but the curtains are beautiful. Love 💕 the gray color, it’s perfect. My closet has 4 half doors that always seem to be in the way. They are pretty, but such a pain sometimes. Glad to find another CA content creator to watch. 😊
Loved this video. I did the same with our bedroom closet. Just put a curtain up and it looks nicer than the door did. You look so pretty here. I love your beautiful hair. Have a Blessed day! 💙🌻🦋
That was a great improvement . Love watching your videos ❤they are simple and inspiring to watch . Your channel is so realistic and you’re so down to earth 😀❤!
I think this is a great solution ! I like the gray curtains because they close the visual gap at the top. If, at some point, you think you have too many curtains in the room 😂 you can maybe consider switching out the window curtains to textured blinds or something that is not fabric.
Thank you! Eventually the long term plan is to get a different window treatment, but Grant said we need to replace the windows which could change the size of the window slightly so that is why we are waiting to make the investment on the window treatments. It's like that book when you give a mouse a cookie.
@shannontorrens1 Cute analogy ❤That book was a favorite of our kids, especially our daughter! Love how you are so patient, doing one thing at a time, all the while embracing the specialness of the little things. Our newest project is the completion of fresh white paint in our master bath. I only have a few areas to detail paint which I enjoy ( my husband does the roller painting part sinceI prefer brush & cut in ). A nice Sunday of church & calm rest. Sending well wishes your way; praying tornadoes miss us. It's been 🌧 raining like a flood for days now. Happy❤Sunday!!
I always enjoy your videos! I love the sweet affection your husband shows to you, so sweet! And I always enjoy the way you explain things like the dress you’re not gonna keep because it has no structure and just hangs 😃 I know exactly what you mean and I feel we are good friends just talking things through 😂 Have a great day! 🥰
It looks great. Fitted wardrobes are always done in a way the under-utilises the space. We put a lower rod in our daughters and it’s been so nice for her to be able to access her own clothes. Also - I know I won’t be the only one commenting on the lovely warmth from your husband. Those kisses 🥹
Thank you for the great ideas. I have a tiny closet in my room. I have 2 totes at the bottom for off-season clothes. I might try those bags with the zipper. Hopefully, it will fit better. The totes take up so much space.
Shannon~ I love how you got so excited that (that) was the project for the day of doing the closet doors. I completely understand, and I think they look wonderful. This got me to thinking if Kathy ever replaced the cracked mirror/closet door in your old bedroom, ((smiles)) At timestamp 14:22, I recognized that dress because I had loved it. I thought drat if we were neighbors, you could declutter it to me LOL I understand about the armholes being too big. I often have my mom take those in. I always wonder why they make them that way. I'm still decluttering one a day ( sometimes more!)and writing it down. If I had a youtube channel like you I would have a "box & a reason" all organized as well❤ The quick time when the camera zooms in on Levi on the bed w/ the hangers is precious. Aren't you SO happy you get to relive those years w/ a little one a third time? Look at me all sentimental....Now that our two kids are grown😊❤😢 I hope you have A wonderful Monday! This was fun to watch while I relaxed and did the bills.
Hello Julia, It's so nice to hear from you! I feel so lucky to have Levi =) I think since he is my third I know how fast they grow up and I try to savor all these moments. You will be happy to hear that my mom FINALLY replaced the broken mirror closet door. It just so happened that her neighbor who had the exact same closet door was getting rid of it and it fit perfectly! After 30 years finally, that mirrored door is replaced. We went over and helped her put it in. I hope you have a nice week. =)
Shannon, what a fun story about how Kathy's neighbor blessed her with that closet 🚪 door! Isn’t it nice to know that we can all look out for each other like that? And isn't it funny when they build houses, often some in a grouping will have the same finishings? Our house is identical to some others on our street. I would like it to stand out a bit so we've painted the shutters differently and have tried to add some curb appeal that makes us feel happy ( landscaping, window boxes). All of these little touches mean so much when you can enjoy your space. I just remembered, in our last house we had the closet door situation just like you have now and we took our daughter's closet door off and put a curtain there. I just remembered that! She was about eleven years old at the time and into lime green And pink ha ha. So we made it be fun. I also wanted to add that walk-in closets can be very Overrated imo when you live like we do with three dozen or so items total. Our house is is about 1450sq feet..but it seems much smaller bc they used up so much space on our closet. Seriously, it is like a very small bedroom in there. I told my husband, " if you were a carpenter, I know just what I would do: Tear down that wall and have more bathroom space LOL" There are those white Rubbermaid shelving racks all the way around inside, halfway up from the floor and at the ceiling. They are mostly empty as are the clothing racks. 😅
I love the gentle adoration and affection, your hubby has towards you. So tender and sweet.❤
I really like your videos. I like that you talk at a medium to slower pace and almost never say “um”. I like that your voice is melodic without being shrill. I like hearing your thought process when making decisions; it helps me think about my decluttering decisions more carefully. I also like your videos with your mom. You might be the best decluttering mentor on UA-cam for the middle of the road non-minimal, non-hoarder person. Thank you! 😊
Oh thank you!
Very natural and very realistic that's the way I like your style

I love that! I try to do the same thing with my boys. Slow and steady declutter.
@@shannontorrens1 Works so well 😊

Aww. Your husband is so sweet and so in love with you. 🥰
😊 thank you
I also love Blue Ginger clothes from Maui. So pretty.
I love the curtains versus the doors!
Great to see a Married Couple actually touch!
I have a donation pile and didn't know where to put it. I love the idea of a basket in the closet corner!
You did it!! You got 100K subscribers!! Congratulations Shannon!!
Yay! Thank you!
Perfect improvement...looks great Shannon!

I took my sliding closet doors off years ago and love it that way. One big plus is that I keep my closet clean, minimal, and organized. 🎉
Love that!
Great closet make-over, Shannon! The grey curtains definitely look better. I love that dresses print that you framed too! ❤
Love the picture of the dresses you hung in your room by the bed. Perfect for you with the pretty dresses you have!❤
Oh thank you! I love it too. Little things can make us happy =)
I also love using comforter and blanket zipper bags, to store linens and clothes. They are water resistant, dust proof, and see through, so its easy to find what I need. ❤
Love how you used the thrift store for a really cheap special occasion dress rental!
I keep a decluttering basket too and switch out my clothes seasonally. I live in IN and it's such a joy to put away the heavy winter things every spring.

I took my sliding doors off and put up floor-length curtains. They're so pretty.

Nice! I like the curtains. I think bifold doors work well too, to open up the middle of a wide closet.
We took the doors off our fitted wardrobes 20 years ago and have floor to ceiling net curtains. We first used net curtains over the mirror doors in a previous property and it looked so good, that it was one of the first things we did when we moved here.

Hi Joy, That is such a great idea for kids. My boys have bifold doors that they never shut LOL. They might as well be off too.
I'm not a huge fan of curtains for closets, but everybody has to do what works best for them! Works fine for a temporary solution 😊
I love your family! small updates are better than getting into debt to do remodeling and updates, in my opinion. I would have picked the white curtain, but you said it is temporarily.
Nice fix Shannon and Grant. Team work can be fun.❤❤❤
This is such a lovely temporary solution!!! Great!
Hello Shannon, I like the sliding doors much better! It's more tidy in you room . Love your channel you have lots of great content . Take care 💞👍
I have had a mixed experience with command hooks. In some cases they have worked great but other times they have done a lot of damage to the wall when we couldn't get them off. I have also had a few times where they fell off. I think because our walls have a thick texture they don't adhere very well.

I like the softness and practicality of the drapes.
Another great video Shannon, I really love your content. Ive been slowly decluttering over the past 8 years, my home is so much more organised.
Having your home function for you is the most important thing . Looks fine and especially if you have plans down the road to majorly change it . Bravo using curtains that you already had . Good job .
I love what you and your hubby did with the closet. The drapes look so sophisticated. The room really looks more like you than ever before. Great job!
I did the same thing with the closet doors in our house! We could never reach certain parts of the closet, and the curtains are way easier to use! Yours look great!
Morning Shannon! You inspire us to keep going back through our homes! I filled a bag yesterday! ❤
That is awesome!
I really like the change. Those large sliding doors would make me feel claustrophobic when trying to access my things. I know it’s temporary, but it’s a really nice solution for the time being. Now you’ve inspired me to declutter my closet and switch out my seasonal things! 🤗❤️🙏🏻
Thank you! I am so happy this inspired you =)
Yes that door would drive me crazy !
I just built a New home and a huge walk in closet with one wall with built in shoe boxes .
No doors . It's open and actually makes the room look bigger.
You'll love it .! Love from Texas
That sounds amazing! I have never lived in a house with a walk in closet LOL. I can only dream about how nice that would be. =)
Off topic but will you show organization for your art/painting supplies? Or how your mom organizes hers? I’ve got a closet for mine but have the wire shelving for mine which isn’t ideal.
Love all your videos.🙂
Absolutely!! I am working on my office right now and eventually, we will do something with that closet too. =)
That would be very interesting and very useful.
You've added not only function but the curtains soften the wall. I removed bi-fold doors from a laundry room (actually a closet with the w& d). Hung a curtain and it looked great! Small changes are so much fun!
Rubbing candle wax on the top of older timber drawers will help them slide easier. If you use scented wax melts instead of candles, the drawers smell lovely.
Shannon, you will be amazed how much of a difference having all the same hangers makes! Maker sure the hanger part swivels, it’s easier to put stuff away. Also, hang everything facing the same way, looks sooo good! And I love the doors off!

I like it so much better without the doors, makes much more sense. You're right, little changes makes a world of difference!
I really like the redo looks like it will function so much better than the doors being there, I prefer the curtain look to the doors on closets. I like the shirt you're wearing so cute!
Closet looked good 👍🏼 And your husband is in cheerful mood 😄Beautiful couple 😊
I love Katie Daisy’s art too! I think the curtains look great! I took the doors off the closet in my craft room and hung curtains too and love it!
I agree even the good velvet hangers break. The are print is so cute. I love it.
Love the curtains instead of doors! ❤
I also would've chosen the gray curtains - since the fabric is a bit heavier they hang/fall (?) very nicely, their color matches quite well with the walls and there's no gap at the top as it was with the white ones.

I liked the closet doors better even though they were not as practical. The closet was charming and goes with the house.

Thank you so much for being here. I hope you are doing well.
It looks a lot better, and it's a good job. That said, I am still trying to wrap my head around a shared closet. I could never do this...
Hahaha! I would way prefer my own closet LOL.
Dresses are the very best. 1 item of clothes YES. Clothes hangers make me stressed out!!!! I pit them in bags in laundry room
Love this. Congratulations on your following ❤
Your Mom was right. The gray curtains are so much better!
Shannon Dear please accept my deepest gratitude for uploading such a lovely video!
When I saw your rust colored dress it reminded me of Taylor’s dress! Then you said why you had bought it😊
It makes sense to do little small improvements on a budget until you know exactly what you want to accomplish
Loved this video. I did the same with our bedroom closet. Just put a curtain up and it looks nicer than the door did. You look so pretty here. I love your beautiful hair. Have a Blessed day! 💙🌻🦋
Thank you so much!
That was a great improvement . Love watching your videos ❤they are simple and inspiring to watch . Your channel is so realistic and you’re so down to earth 😀❤!
Thank you so much for being here! I hope you are doing well.
Small but yet a huge difference.👌👌
I liked the white curtains. Maybe it’s different in person but on my tv screen they looked better. Great job on the closet.
I felt they blended better, but in the end the gray ones actually slide easier and in real life they do look higher quality.
Excellent!
Open closets are trending! I took all of my doors off and it makes life so much easier.
I think this is a great solution ! I like the gray curtains because they close the visual gap at the top. If, at some point, you think you have too many curtains in the room 😂 you can maybe consider switching out the window curtains to textured blinds or something that is not fabric.

British weather is all over the place to. So like you finding it hard to let go of clothes.
We have curtains on the window, behind the bed and we also removed our closet doors and hung curtains. So you are not the only one.
Great improvement! Love the grey curtains. 🙂
Thanks so much! 😊
I’m glad this is working out for you! I think all closets …unless custom… need extra workable tweaks!! Love the artwork! - Belinda
Thanks so much! 😊
I like the gray
Love the closet update!
Yay! Thank you!
I took off my closet doors and use a shower curtain to "hide" my clothing when ineed to. Usually i just habe my clothing in sight.
I always enjoy your videos! I love the sweet affection your husband shows to you, so sweet! And I always enjoy the way you explain things like the dress you’re not gonna keep because it has no structure and just hangs 😃 I know exactly what you mean and I feel we are good friends just talking things through 😂 Have a great day! 🥰
This was timely and helpful, thank you!
I use vacuum bags. I suck out the air with my Dyson dust buster. Weight, volumn gone. Love them. All has to go in 3 closets.
Thank you so much for this video! Can you tell us about the plastic zipper bags and where we could purchase them? It's exactly what I need!
I found these at Ikea. Very affordable too.
Love your dress!!
Thank you!!
Awesome idea! 👏👏👏👍💞
12:05 😍 So sweet!
I really like the curtains but another option could be doing 3 smaller sliding doors. 2 on the front slider and one on the back.
Looks great Shannon!!
This was great!
I like the updated closet! It'll be nice to be able to access the middle of the closet more easily now.
Thank you! It's already so much easier to get to everything. I hope you are having a nice weekend.
Wonderful idea to remove the closet doors. It looks great with the gray curtains
It looks great. Fitted wardrobes are always done in a way the under-utilises the space. We put a lower rod in our daughters and it’s been so nice for her to be able to access her own clothes.
Also - I know I won’t be the only one commenting on the lovely warmth from your husband. Those kisses 🥹
Thank you!
Thank you for the great ideas. I have a tiny closet in my room. I have 2 totes at the bottom for off-season clothes. I might try those bags with the zipper. Hopefully, it will fit better. The totes take up so much space.
Can you maybe do zippered under bed storage bags?
@@j.m.7056 My daughter has a few, I will trade her a tote for some zipper bags
Shannon~ I love how you got so excited that (that) was the project for the day of doing the closet doors. I completely understand, and I think they look wonderful. This got me to thinking if Kathy ever replaced the cracked mirror/closet door in your old bedroom, ((smiles))
At timestamp 14:22, I recognized that dress because I had loved it. I thought drat if we were neighbors, you could declutter it to me LOL I understand about the armholes being too big. I often have my mom take those in. I always wonder why they make them that way.
I'm still decluttering one a day ( sometimes more!)and writing it down. If I had a youtube channel like you I would have a "box & a reason" all organized as well❤
The quick time when the camera zooms in on Levi on the bed w/ the hangers is precious. Aren't you SO happy you get to relive those years w/ a little one a third time? Look at me all sentimental....Now that our two kids are grown😊❤😢
I hope you have A wonderful Monday! This was fun to watch while I relaxed and did the bills.
Hello Julia, It's so nice to hear from you! I feel so lucky to have Levi =) I think since he is my third I know how fast they grow up and I try to savor all these moments. You will be happy to hear that my mom FINALLY replaced the broken mirror closet door. It just so happened that her neighbor who had the exact same closet door was getting rid of it and it fit perfectly! After 30 years finally, that mirrored door is replaced. We went over and helped her put it in. I hope you have a nice week. =)
Shannon, what a fun story about how Kathy's neighbor blessed her with that closet 🚪 door! Isn’t it nice to know that we can all look out for each other like that? And isn't it funny when they build houses, often some in a grouping will have the same finishings? Our house is identical to some others on our street. I would like it to stand out a bit so we've painted the shutters differently and have tried to add some curb appeal that makes us feel happy ( landscaping, window boxes). All of these little touches mean so much when you can enjoy your space.
I just remembered, in our last house we had the closet door situation just like you have now and we took our daughter's closet door off and put a curtain there. I just remembered that! She was about eleven years old at the time and into lime green And pink ha ha. So we made it be fun.
I also wanted to add that walk-in closets can be very Overrated imo when you live like we do with three dozen or so items total. Our house is is about 1450sq feet..but it seems much smaller bc they used up so much space on our closet. Seriously, it is like a very small bedroom in there. I told my husband, " if you were a carpenter, I know just what I would do: Tear down that wall and have more bathroom space LOL"
There are those white Rubbermaid shelving racks all the way around inside, halfway up from the floor and at the ceiling. They are mostly empty as are the clothing racks.
😅
This is fun to watch, as usual!!!
Grant is so sweet❤
Love your channel Shannon ❤
This week I’m going to drop off my 3 bags of donations ❤
Thanks for all the inspiration
