I have suffered from depression my whole life. I was at a very low point recently. I am a relatively young grandmother and great grandmother, But my daughter lives far away, and my son and his family are moving in a week or so. I was watching one of your segments the other day, and when you ended the segment you always say "you are loved and you are enough just the way you are", my spirit lifted and my sadness went away. Maybe not forever, but for that day. Thank you...........
Awww 🥰 I am so happy it could help you even just for a little bit. Children or any family members moving is such an emotional 🥹 moment . Take care of yourself sweet Victoria 🥰🥰 xoxoxo
I lost my sister a couple years ago. This is the type of thing we would do together. She’s resting in the arms of God But He has given me a fun new friend to share time with. We are devout Catholics. My faith deeply rooted in Jewish teaching. We consider you brothers and sisters in faith. I wish our community was as reverent as yours enjoying the peace that modesty brings. So many problems can be solved with this simple way. I will include you and your family in my prayers! Thank you for sharing your beautiful devotion to our God.
I love a fresh start. Also to hear the method to your closet madness. When I hit the date to stop wearing heels and skirts/dresses I removed 48 prs of shoes 8 pair high dress boots and many suede coats and jackets. I have no memory of how many dresses/skirts but my closet looked so forlorn and empty I couldn't look at it for a few days! I filled my minivan with all those things. My husband went with me as part of our negotiation to clear the closet. He unloaded everything in the van as fast as the store crew could take it. The store didn't know it was my trove. As I walked past the main desk I heard one of the managers tell a friend on the phone that a lot of very high end beautiful clothes were coming in and she should get here right away. The fact that other much younger women valued what I gave up made it so worthwhile. And I never missed any of it because it went to homes where it would be valued. For boots, which I still wear, use pool noodles cut to length and maybe doubled by hot gluing together in the calf area. I keep the boots together and upright by using scrunchies that I get at resale stores.
This was a delight! Clothes triage!!!Lol! As a retired OR nurse that really tickled me. Thank you for this content, including dust bunnies and bumping into that picture frame on the wall. You are so real and I love hearing your voice which is very calming. I have two closets, which I switch out…Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter. When the weather finally changes consistently I go through and do a purge and arrange the appropriate season in my bedroom closet(storing the other in my guest room closet). I also like to arrange my clothes by color. 😊
I loved that you used the word "triage" for your sorting process. As someone who also works in the medical field, it made me chuckle. That's exactly what it is.....triage. Great video. I need to do organize my closet too.
I love a fresh start! I would love to have your hand-me-downs!!! 😂 you have such good taste in clothes!❤ You made me laugh when you were taking the doors off and hit the frame and walls!!😂 I had those sliding doors on my closet. I got SO frustrated with them coming off track, I just took them off and threw them away! Doesn’t look great, but no more irritating doors!! I LOVE that scarf on you! So cute!!
I love a fresh start! I would like to learn more of how you dress modestly, or how your orthodox Jewish lifestyle influences your clothing choices (and for your husband!). I love how you pace your videos like a conversation or like a story. I feel like clutter clean-ups are a wonderful opportunity to reevaluate what you want to keep with you moving forward into a new chapter in your life, thank you for sharing! I'm eying my chair pile of sweaters a little more critically lol
I love a fresh start. You can make even a closet cleanup amusing. When the items started falling out I laughed. Thanks for keeping that in and not editing it out. Love your head coverings. Have lost my hair to chemo and it never grew back. Wigs are so hot in summer in Texas that a simpler way to cover my sad balding head would be nice. It just occurred to me that I can probably find ideas on you tube. Yipee
I love a fresh happy start! Does any other viewer besides me click on the "Like" button immediately when you open the video, even before you've viewed it, because you know, you will ALWAYS like a "Frum It Up" video? 😄
@@frumitup Every video of yours that I have viewed has touched my heart, as well! (And, FTR, I live my life by the 85% rule: I exercise, 85% of the time, I eat healthy, 85% of the time, and I'm "nice"...85% of the time--the remaining 15% you wouldn't want to know me! (sometimes, I don't want to know me!) No one is perfect and life balance is important. Just a little perspective from a 70 year old😊)
I love the pleasant and serene way you describe gracefully "removing the doors to my closet and taking out the frame next to my closet....and destroying my walls" 😆
You are so fun to watch. I love a fresh start. I too had to clean up my closet and just put things that fit. It is amazing how it helps to quiet the mind of negative self talk. I enjoyed your sense of humor and openness. Thank you for the inspiration. Shalom ❤
Shalom! You did such a great job! Congratulations! After dusting your closet shelves, you can top them with a pretty fabric so next time you dust you can just wash the fabric. To keep moths down, you can find those cedar rectangle things on hanger hooks between the type of garments to organize. Write "skirts" etc. on the side of the cedar with a sharpie. Pretty scented soaps in organza baggies on these things smell nice. Hope I was helpful. 😊😊😊
You have such a great sense of humor. I am thankful I found your channel. I have been cleaning my bathroom while listening. Now I think I will look for a bin for my handbags, that is a good idea. I love a fresh start!
Oh, Sara, I had no idea you're an ICU doc. My husband had sepsis a few ears back and spent some time in ICU... I never encountered a better group of people, profoundly devoted, so kind even in the hardest moments. I have a whole new level of respect for you; how you come home after that to young kids and everything you do just amazes me. Also, the finished closet is *gorgeous*... I'm inspired! And I would love to see a video about modest dressing. Lots of thanks!
Love my weekly dose of Sara Malka videos....closet clearing is definitely a yearly thing to do.I have my sheitels in my closet,I also like black clothes much easier to match my headscarves to my outfits.....Shavua Tov hope you have a wonderful week ahead lots of love from Israel
As Passover is getting here ….thank you 🙏🏻🌹😉I constantly rearrange,it doesn’t last….too much stuff….did Techouva few years ago ,I still hava items I have sentimental attachment too😊 Great video,great ideas.merci Sarah
I wish I had the energy to do just a quarter of the things this Amazing lady does! I'm dealing with anemia, having to get IV iron and I don't feel well a lot. I'm in the process of converting to Catholicism and I understand the peace the morning prayer and times you take to communicate with God are so important. Sending you love and best wishes from Memphis, TN. I love a fresh start!
I LOVE A FRESH START❤ Sarah, I think you are a fabulous woman. I admire and learn from you. Even though we are completely different people, with completely different lives, we are both women who love God, and our families. Wishing you and your family a wonderful week. ❤
I am so happy to know I am not the only person who shoves things in every possible nook and cranny! Watching the closet attack as you removed items was so very relatable. It is so nice to see the process and especially since you are organizing with what you already own versus buying, well, more stuff! I love a fresh start!
Thank you for doing this. Love the closet. And the comment at the end about negative self talk really hit home with me. Now I am going to go clean my closet! You are such a blessing from Hashem. 💖
I want to repaint the master bedroom to a very light blue-green instead of the white it’s been since we moved in 17 years ago, and my husband agrees with the color. Do NOT give me any more ideas!!!!
Thank you for being so vulnerable and open with us!! It really has inspired me to clear out my closet today, and sort through the clothes that don’t fit me anymore!
You are such a terrific role model as a woman who is organized, multi-faceted , so positive and talented. Your Resent Routine(s) are so helpful. Thank you for sharing with lucky us!!
I love starting my week with Sara and this community. I have one stuffed closet, but the vacuuming and wiping has inspired me for the rest of week. One per day, and the deep clean will be accomplished.
Sara and this wonderful community, I love fresh starts. Sara, I did a reset in my kitchen today, I was proud of myself for completing the task. Everyone, have a wonderful week.
Yes, I have crazy things in my closet - a mystery box with old newspaper articles I thought needed to be saved. I loved when you used the word "triaging" the clothes. I certainly understand that being a nurse. Thanks Sara for this video. We are having our hardwood floors refinished right now and it is time to clean out my closet too. I love a fresh start.
What a great video Sara Malka! We all have this issue. I have clothes in several sizes. Yesterday I organized a bookcase/shelf system. It felt great! Today I’m tackling another project. Finally feeling less depressed and more motivated. Thank you G-d!!! Sending hugs to you my friend!
Letting go of the shoes was a great charity. Not just the physical shoes but letting go of any resentment or feeling of unfairness you had in the beginning. The person who has them next will be blessed while wearing them.
I love a fresh start! Our closets are about the same size so I appreciate seeing a clean out of a closet that sized rather than a huge walk in closet that I cannot relate to! Now that the seasons have changed you have inspired me to get at it, thank you👍☺️
I love the idea of leaving it on hangers and hiding it from sight. I have a striped jacket that keeps going in and out of many different donation bags over the last year 😁
I love a fresh start, and I can totally relate to the need to clean out your closet. I've also gone up a couple sizes in the last few years, and had started going through one category at a time to sort out what still fit, but I never got around to doing winter clothes 😅 You've encouraged me to finish this exercise and actually remove the items I can't currently wear!
I love a fresh start! I am so motivated to refresh my own closet because so many clothes no longer fit me as well. While we may plan to lose weight and wear again the clothes we love I think keeping them in the closet where you see them on a daily basis can definitely contribute to negative self talk about a body that still manages to love and care for those around you. Thank you for the motivation. I love your channel and while I'm not of your faith the peace that surrounds you is contagious.
I love a fresh start!!! I am inspired to clean out my closet. I am working on dressing more modestly and I am sure there are clothing items I need to bless someone else with!
I love fresh starts! 😍 Sarah, your videos are always so uplifting and encouraging. Thank you for taking time to invite us inside your life! Blessings to you and yours!'
Oh that pink dress is so beautiful, I would love to watch a video about that dress! Clothes are very important for me to stay connected with my ethnicity and culture, so I love hearing about how clothes impact others in terms of their culture!💖
I love a closet clean out! No need to feel any shame about the condition of your closet. Sometimes more important things take precedent, again and again! Glad you had time for a reset and brought us along!
You hit a nerve with me, a year of ill health after a covid infection has left me with wardrobe that doesnt fit, i bought some over the door hangers and hang my new capsule wardrobe on the outside of the doors🙈😅we can be so harsh on ourselves and you have made me feel so much better❤
I have never thought of hanging my skirts like that! What a great idea, Thanks!! I have a tendency to purchase items that are brown & grey; only have a few black items. I'm impressed!! We are planning to paint our bedroom which means I will need to reorganize my closet! Right now, I look at my closet & cringe!! And yes, I do LOVE a fresh start!!
I think in this video I heard you laugh for the first time! You have a very warm laugh! Your videos are so wonderful to watch and soothing. You really inspire me to get my life together!
"I love a fresh start." I tend to dress in blue or black to out of house events. Because I'm retired, I tend to dress in comfortable house clothes, that I am able to fold and put in my dresser. It also allows me to use my favorite colors, red and white, via my tee-shirts! A recent move helped me sort through clothes I wore to work and ones that I never wore and donate them. I feel so much better having kept only what I will wear.
I love a fresh start! ❤ (and I love all of your videos!!) I did a huge closet clean out a few months ago to give clothes to a woman whose house burned down who was my size. I donated 3 big contractor size trash bags at that time. However, I still need to look at downsizing my closet in general. Everything fits, and is in good condition, but it doesn’t fit my life as someone who works from home now! 😊 Thank you for your inspiration and your kind words in every video. Your family, friends and patients are so blessed to have you in their lives! ❤️
I love a fresh start. I just found your channel. I'm enjoying your personality and content. I'm a Christian/ Lutheran. I'm enjoying learning about your religion. Thank you so much for being a gracious teacher.
Oh man do I hear you on the new beginning! I think many of us are in the same position. Your closet revamp is just the push I need to get on my own closet clean out!
Hi Sara, The closet looks beautiful, I have a fun hint on how to keep boots standing up so they don't crack or fall over. Take a pool noodle and cut it the height of your boot. That's it , No need to zip them or anything. I use them in all my boots and they look brand new plus pretty in the closet
I’ve also gained weight in the last two years and put off giving clothes away until the very last moment before my move to Israel. It was just so sad to see all my favourite pieces of clothing with so many happy memories attached and not being able to wear them anymore. Now I hope someone else is just as happy to wear them as I was :) Your positive words always bring me joy ❤
Bright blessings on you as a doctor for all the trials you dealt with concerning the global issue. The stress must have been awful. Many hugs and thanks for your hard work. Your pink caftan is beautiful. May you wear it in good health! I have started using your trick of storing all the bed linens in the matching pillowcase. Genius! Thank you for that!
I LOVE your videos! I’m myself a full working doc trying to balance job, household and spiritual life . Your videos are always inspirational and full of practical tips! Thanks for your dedicated work. …and now off to de-clutter my own closer!!!!!💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I definitely love a fresh start and that's why I can't wait for us to finish unpacking. What a great plan to organize and declutter your closet. The little black change purse was beautiful and I loved your pink formal gown! Beautiful. May you be blessed, healthy and joyful❤
Heavens. You are such a great inspiration. While my closet doesn’t need a clean out right now I certainly WILL keep your wise words in mind….and likely rewatch this video.
This is exactly the sort of cleaning out I love to do! Occasionally I just pick a random spot in our house and do things like this, because I simply cannot deal with too much clutter! Thank you for being such a sweet inspiring lady!!
I love a fresh start. 🤩 When I declutter, I put everything quickly in a bag close to the door. Then I wait a few weeks. If I don't remember what I put in it, out it goes: I won't miss it. Loved hearing you laugh and I love your sense of humour.
I live in a 38 ft bus. Going thru my closet is a monthly exercise! I love it, because finally, everything I own is comfy, in great shape, fits me nicely and is loved! And yes, black is a dominant color in my wardrobe. It is just so easy to accessorize! 😁
That is so cool to go through your closet every month! Isn’t it the best feeling to open you closet and nothing screams: you’re too fat, it’s too tight,… I love it!!
What a good idea as I stare at my closet. I liked that you removed the doors. I can't go to bed if my closet doors aren't closed how silly. I Have never realized that until now. If I take them off I know I will clean the closet. Your system of making the piles and not overthrowing it is great!
You are so accomplished, yet honest & humble. What a joy to see these days. I feel the weight off my shoulders already. You have inspired me to do my closets. Yes, plural. 😊 One for winter & one for the rest of the year. I too have gained weight and dreaded the idea of trying on every single item. I have not cleared my closets since my husband passed eight years ago. It could take days. Your way seems much simpler than any I have read about or watched. Thank you for making the impossible possible for me. 💖
I love a fresh start! I loved this video too. I know it’s quite old,but I only found your channel a few weeks ago so I’m trying to watch some older videos aswell as the recent ones. You made me laugh out loud with your comments when you were taking out the doors ! I thought you did a great job, the closet was SO tidy at the end. Like you I line up my clothes by colour, mostly black, navy and grey with a few pink tops. (You don’t have to think too hard about what to wear if you only have a few colours to choose from!) I use lavender sachets in my wardrobe and drawers. I think I was told as a child (a long time ago) that it helped keep away moths, but I just love the lavender smell! Thank you so much for putting together your channel (I have no idea where you find the time) so cheery, motivating and friendly. Always pleasure to watch. I like all aspects of it. The cooking, the organising and also especially interesting your orthodox faith. It has inspired me to try and pray more and be grateful for what God has given me. Stay safe and God bless you and your family. 💜
I did the same! I took EVERYTHING out of the closet and vacuumed it. What an impact this made on me. Then I put back into the closet only those things I wished to keep, and gave the rest away. It took me six hours!!!
I have a walk in closet and did a complete over haul last Spring. I ordered all new blush pink velvet hangers, a wall shoe rack, and baskets for the shelf where I store underwear, socks, miscellaneous items for clothing maintenance, swimwear, and night wear so I don't need a dresser in the bedroom. It took a few days to finish, but once done, it has stayed intact and is a pleasure to go into. Of course there was plenty to donate. I think once its done well, it's easy to keep it tidy. You did a very good job. Last year I went through my entire home, room by room, and decluttered.I took my time and it took about 4 months. I wear black leggings every day, but different colored tops. I have over 100 casual tops alone, and every color but browns and yellows. That was very wrong about the sell of the shoes on Amazon, I hope you reported them. I'm 5' 7" and wear a 12 shoes :) Have a good day. 🥰🦃🍃🍁🍂💗✝
Thank you for sharing your closet cleanout. This is just the motivation I need to do my own closet cleanout. Please don't be embarrassed, I have a similar situation with needing to clean and sort through clothes from another season in my life.
Thank you ! What an inspiration to women , no matter their beliefs. A colleague once asked my definition of Grace . I have found it what a role model you are . I don’t know how you do it ? Always with a smile and giggle . I feel blessed to have found your channel.
I love a fresh start! Hi Sara Malka, my name is Abby and I am new to your channel but can’t stop watching your wonderful videos. Your channel is a ray of joy, warmth, genuinity and love that shines through the noise of this hectic, confusing and often overwhelming world. I deeply admire that you have found a way to educate about the Orthodox Sephardic Jewish practices that anyone can understand no matter their background. The way you share your knowledge and ideas is reassuring and informative; it is easy to feel how much respect and love you have for your Jewish life even through the camera. Thank you for sharing such a candid and inspiring view of Jewish life with the world. Shabbat Shalom! ❤🤗 🎉
I have suffered from depression my whole life. I was at a very low point recently. I am a relatively young grandmother and great grandmother, But my daughter lives far away, and my son and his family are moving in a week or so.

Children or any family members moving is such an emotional 🥹 moment .
Take care of yourself sweet Victoria 🥰🥰 xoxoxo
I lost my sister a couple years ago. This is the type of thing we would do together. She’s resting in the arms of God But He has given me a fun new friend to share time with. We are devout Catholics. My faith deeply rooted in Jewish teaching. We consider you brothers and sisters in faith. I wish our community was as reverent as yours enjoying the peace that modesty brings. So many problems can be solved with this simple way. I will include you and your family in my prayers! Thank you for sharing your beautiful devotion to our God.
I am so sorry for the loss of your sister.
May G.od help you go through this challenging time .
Sending you virtual hugs
Your sense of humor is brilliant!
Awww thank you ❤️❤️❤️not a lot of people Get my humour! So thank you 💕💕💕
Whoever invented those velvet hangers was a genius!!
And I love a fresh start!

It took me a second to realize what happened and I cracked up. She said it so calmly I almost missed the irony.

Good for you to have done a refresh in your kitchen: you are amazing 🤩
We must be distant relatives...Lavender, hand me downs, 3 bins, black clothing, same hangers...the closest looks fabulous. I love a fresh start!
Most probably we are relative because that’s a lot of things in common! Are you 5’9 and you wear size 10 too?
@@frumitup I wish I was. I am 12/14 after quarantine. Working hard to get back on track. I am so glad I found your channel.
Yes, I have crazy things in my closet - a mystery box with old newspaper articles I thought needed to be saved. I loved when you used the word "triaging" the clothes. I certainly understand that being a nurse. Thanks Sara for this video. We are having our hardwood floors refinished right now and it is time to clean out my closet too. I love a fresh start.
Ahhh my sweet fellow HCP: only you can understand triage like I do ❤️❤️❤️
And for your closet: you’ve got this!
You have a wonderful sense of humor.
What a great video Sara Malka! We all have this issue. I have clothes in several sizes. Yesterday I organized a bookcase/shelf system. It felt great! Today I’m tackling another project. Finally feeling less depressed and more motivated. Thank you G-d!!! Sending hugs to you my friend!
You’ve got this Carol! 🎉🎉🎉I’m so proud of you!! ❤️❤️❤️
Letting go of the shoes was a great charity. Not just the physical shoes but letting go of any resentment or feeling of unfairness you had in the beginning. The person who has them next will be blessed while wearing them.
It was so satisfying to watch you clean and declutter your closet. The result looked beautiful!! I love a fresh start!! 🌴
you are so kind Carina, thank you :)
Oh, I LOVE this organizational video! 🥰
thank you so so much Kren:) xoxoxo
@@frumitup It was a very inspiring video! 😍😘❤
I love a fresh start. I like the idea of using a tote to hold extra purses. Thank you.
You are so welcome! And I love using the box in box kind of storage 😅
I love a fresh start! Our closets are about the same size so I appreciate seeing a clean out of a closet that sized rather than a huge walk in closet that I cannot relate to! Now that the seasons have changed you have inspired me to get at it, thank you👍☺️
Yippeeeee! You’ve got this!
I love the idea of leaving it on hangers and hiding it from sight. I have a striped jacket that keeps going in and out of many different donation bags over the last year 😁
I love a fresh start, and I can totally relate to the need to clean out your closet. I've also gone up a couple sizes in the last few years, and had started going through one category at a time to sort out what still fit, but I never got around to doing winter clothes 😅 You've encouraged me to finish this exercise and actually remove the items I can't currently wear!
You go Lola! The feeling of having a closet with clothes you love and fit is AMAZING!
You’ve got this Lola! I am cheering you on!
It looks great! I'm never disappointed in your videos and I always learn something new. Keep going - you're inspiring in so many way💕s.
I love a fresh start! I am so motivated to refresh my own closet because so many clothes no longer fit me as well. While we may plan to lose weight and wear again the clothes we love I think keeping them in the closet where you see them on a daily basis can definitely contribute to negative self talk about a body that still manages to love and care for those around you. Thank you for the motivation. I love your channel and while I'm not of your faith the peace that surrounds you is contagious.
Awww thank you so much Naledi🥹🥹 your words comforted me today: thank you 💕💕🥹
I love a fresh start!!! I am inspired to clean out my closet. I am working on dressing more modestly and I am sure there are clothing items I need to bless someone else with!
I love a fresh start! Thank you Sara and many blessings to you and your family!
You are so welcome! And thank you for your kindness
Thank you for this video. I needed motivation to clean out drawers and hopefully my closet very soon. 🫶🏼👍🏼
You are so welcome! And Angie, you’ve got this!!
Luv my Sunday afternoons watching and listening to you 🌷
aww thank you so much my sweet Indy Gardener!
I love a fresh start! Happy week and thank you SO much for teaching us about your culture with such grace and love ❤
You are so welcome!
I love a fresh start. My closet needs to be organized. There’s a Christmas tree in there!
I love fresh starts! 😍
Sarah, your videos are always so uplifting and encouraging. Thank you for taking time to invite us inside your life! Blessings to you and yours!'
You are adorable: thank you for being here!
Hanging a paper towel rack on the wall is an awesome way to organize your belts!
I love a fresh start! What an inspiring closet clean out. Thanks so much, Sara Malka!
You are so welcome! And thank you for your kindness
Oh that pink dress is so beautiful, I would love to watch a video about that dress! Clothes are very important for me to stay connected with my ethnicity and culture, so I love hearing about how clothes impact others in terms of their culture!💖
I love a closet clean out! No need to feel any shame about the condition of your closet. Sometimes more important things take precedent, again and again! Glad you had time for a reset and brought us along!
You hit a nerve with me, a year of ill health after a covid infection has left me with wardrobe that doesnt fit, i bought some over the door hangers and hang my new capsule wardrobe on the outside of the doors🙈😅we can be so harsh on ourselves and you have made me feel so much better❤
I love a fresh start!
I’m quite enjoying my Sunday routine that you’ve somehow become a part of!
awww thank you so so much Emmalyn :)
I have never thought of hanging my skirts like that! What a great idea, Thanks!! I have a tendency to purchase items that are brown & grey; only have a few black items. I'm impressed!! We are planning to paint our bedroom which means I will need to reorganize my closet! Right now, I look at my closet & cringe!! And yes, I do LOVE a fresh start!!
I LOVE A FRESH START!
Your Closet looks much better!
Love a Sunday with our sweet Sara 💕
thank you so so much Sharon:) xoxoxo
I think in this video I heard you laugh for the first time! You have a very warm laugh! Your videos are so wonderful to watch and soothing. You really inspire me to get my life together!
"I love a fresh start." I tend to dress in blue or black to out of house events. Because I'm retired, I tend to dress in comfortable house clothes, that I am able to fold and put in my dresser. It also allows me to use my favorite colors, red and white, via my tee-shirts! A recent move helped me sort through clothes I wore to work and ones that I never wore and donate them. I feel so much better having kept only what I will wear.
I cannot believe you did this so fast. I feel so overwhelmed with my closet(s). I love your scarf.
You’ve got this! The trick is not to over think: it’s touch and triage! Then It goes super fast!
I believe in you Zig❤️❤️❤️
I love a fresh start! ❤ (and I love all of your videos!!) I did a huge closet clean out a few months ago to give clothes to a woman whose house burned down who was my size. I donated 3 big contractor size trash bags at that time. However, I still need to look at downsizing my closet in general. Everything fits, and is in good condition, but it doesn’t fit my life as someone who works from home now! 😊
Thank you for your inspiration and your kind words in every video. Your family, friends and patients are so blessed to have you in their lives! ❤️
Awww thank you Meg for your kind words, and thank you to be such an amazing human!
Your community is lucky to have you!

I love a fresh start. I just found your channel. I'm enjoying your personality and content. I'm a Christian/ Lutheran. I'm enjoying learning about your religion. Thank you so much for being a gracious teacher.
I love a fresh start! I am not Jewish, but I appreciate the view into your beliefs. I also appreciate how calming and tender your voice is. Thank you!
I love fresh starts! I just finished purging my closet and I feel so much better.
Whhiipppeee!!! You go Tracie ❤️
Oh man do I hear you on the new beginning! I think many of us are in the same position. Your closet revamp is just the push I need to get on my own closet clean out!
You’ve got this Sara 📣🎊🎉🥳
Sara, I love your self-effacing sense of humor. You are a peach! I really enjoy watching your channel, even though I am not Jewish.
Love your sense of humour on removing the doors, had me giggling
Oh wow, this is timely! My closet is overflowing and driving me crazy. It's time to watch this and get to work! 😊❤🎉
I watch you when I don’t feel good, thank you for having such calming content and positive messages. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it
Hi Sara, The closet looks beautiful, I have a fun hint on how to keep boots standing up so they don't crack or fall over. Take a pool noodle and cut it the height of your boot. That's it , No need to zip them or anything. I use them in all my boots and they look brand new plus pretty in the closet
I’ve also gained weight in the last two years and put off giving clothes away until the very last moment before my move to Israel. It was just so sad to see all my favourite pieces of clothing with so many happy memories attached and not being able to wear them anymore. Now I hope someone else is just as happy to wear them as I was :) Your positive words always bring me joy ❤
What an adventure!
My grandmother and mom always kept a bar of nice smelling soap in their dresser drawer. Thanks for reminding me of that memory
I wear blue and black and I love your closet!
Bright blessings on you as a doctor for all the trials you dealt with concerning the global issue. The stress must have been awful. Many hugs and thanks for your hard work. Your pink caftan is beautiful. May you wear it in good health! I have started using your trick of storing all the bed linens in the matching pillowcase. Genius! Thank you for that!
I love a fresh start! Your are DEFINITELY not alone 🤠
aww thank you Charles!
I enjoyed watching you reorganize your closet. It looks great!
may i simply say that I needed this today? I have to go through my wardrobe soon and im so anxious about it. this makes it less stressful. Thank you!
I am so happy it could help you!
Never forget: You got this Little Gamer!
I LOVE your videos! I’m myself a full working doc trying to balance job, household and spiritual life . Your videos are always inspirational and full of practical tips! Thanks for your dedicated work.
…and now off to de-clutter my own closer!!!!!💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I definitely love a fresh start and that's why I can't wait for us to finish unpacking. What a great plan to organize and declutter your closet. The little black change purse was beautiful and I loved your pink formal gown! Beautiful.
May you be blessed, healthy and joyful❤
Awww thank you Linda ❤️❤️❤️
Happy unpacking!
Heavens. You are such a great inspiration. While my closet doesn’t need a clean out right now I certainly WILL keep your wise words in mind….and likely rewatch this video.
Thank you so so much Jennifer! You are so lovely 🥰
This is exactly the sort of cleaning out I love to do! Occasionally I just pick a random spot in our house and do things like this, because I simply cannot deal with too much clutter! Thank you for being such a sweet inspiring lady!!
I love a fresh start as I have just scrubbed my entire flat and feeling great 😀😀
you are on FIRE Heather : good for you!
I love a fresh start. 🤩
When I declutter, I put everything quickly in a bag close to the door. Then I wait a few weeks. If I don't remember what I put in it, out it goes: I won't miss it. Loved hearing you laugh and I love your sense of humour.
I love a fresh start. I love organization
Ilove your sense of humor.
I live in a 38 ft bus. Going thru my closet is a monthly exercise! I love it, because finally, everything I own is comfy, in great shape, fits me nicely and is loved!
And yes, black is a dominant color in my wardrobe.
It is just so easy to accessorize! 😁
That is so cool to go through your closet every month!
Isn’t it the best feeling to open you closet and nothing screams: you’re too fat, it’s too tight,… I love it!!
What a good idea as I stare at my closet. I liked that you removed the doors. I can't go to bed if my closet doors aren't closed how silly. I Have never realized that until now. If I take them off I know I will clean the closet. Your system of making the piles and not overthrowing it is great!
You are so accomplished, yet honest & humble. What a joy to see these days. I feel the weight off my shoulders already. You have inspired me to do my closets. Yes, plural. 😊 One for winter & one for the rest of the year. I too have gained weight and dreaded the idea of trying on every single item. I have not cleared my closets since my husband passed eight years ago. It could take days. Your way seems much simpler than any I have read about or watched. Thank you for making the impossible possible for me. 💖
I love a fresh start! I loved this video too. I know it’s quite old,but I only found your channel a few weeks ago so I’m trying to watch some older videos aswell as the recent ones. You made me laugh out loud with your comments when you were taking out the doors ! I thought you did a great job, the closet was SO tidy at the end. Like you I line up my clothes by colour, mostly black, navy and grey with a few pink tops. (You don’t have to think too hard about what to wear if you only have a few colours to choose from!) I use lavender sachets in my wardrobe and drawers. I think I was told as a child (a long time ago) that it helped keep away moths, but I just love the lavender smell! Thank you so much for putting together your channel (I have no idea where you find the time) so cheery, motivating and friendly. Always pleasure to watch. I like all aspects of it. The cooking, the organising and also especially interesting your orthodox faith. It has inspired me to try and pray more and be grateful for what God has given me. Stay safe and God bless you and your family. 💜
I did the same! I took EVERYTHING out of the closet and vacuumed it. What an impact this made on me. Then I put back into the closet only those things I wished to keep, and gave the rest away. It took me six hours!!!
I have a walk in closet and did a complete over haul last Spring. I ordered all new blush pink velvet hangers, a wall shoe rack, and baskets for the shelf where I store underwear, socks, miscellaneous items for clothing maintenance, swimwear, and night wear so I don't need a dresser in the bedroom. It took a few days to finish, but once done, it has stayed intact and is a pleasure to go into. Of course there was plenty to donate. I think once its done well, it's easy to keep it tidy. You did a very good job. Last year I went through my entire home, room by room, and decluttered.I took my time and it took about 4 months. I wear black leggings every day, but different colored tops. I have over 100 casual tops alone, and every color but browns and yellows. That was very wrong about the sell of the shoes on Amazon, I hope you reported them. I'm 5' 7" and wear a 12 shoes :) Have a good day. 🥰🦃🍃🍁🍂💗✝
Thank you for sharing your closet cleanout. This is just the motivation I need to do my own closet cleanout. Please don't be embarrassed, I have a similar situation with needing to clean and sort through clothes from another season in my life.
Thank you ! What an inspiration to women , no matter their beliefs. A colleague once asked my definition of Grace . I have found it what a role model you are . I don’t know how you do it ? Always with a smile and giggle . I feel blessed to have found your channel.
I love a fresh start! Hi Sara Malka, my name is Abby and I am new to your channel but can’t stop watching your wonderful videos. Your channel is a ray of joy, warmth, genuinity and love that shines through the noise of this hectic, confusing and often overwhelming world. I deeply admire that you have found a way to educate about the Orthodox Sephardic Jewish practices that anyone can understand no matter their background. The way you share your knowledge and ideas is reassuring and informative; it is easy to feel how much respect and love you have for your Jewish life even through the camera. Thank you for sharing such a candid and inspiring view of Jewish life with the world. Shabbat Shalom! ❤🤗 🎉
