🫶 ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Madeline, mum of 2 little ones, after dealing with miscarriage and infertility for years. I love making videos about motherhood, minimalism, decluttering, cleaning motivation, speed clean with me, homemaking, Ikea favourites, and everything in between.
I strive to upload new videos every week. Hope you stick around and subscribe!

What's something YOU quit to simplify your life? I'd love to hear from you 💛
unsubscribing from Apple News emails. 1y ago when i was 15.
I stopped bulk-buying. For some larger families it can make sense, but now I find I know exactly what I have in the cupboards and what I need. I also quit food shopping in person - online only gives me more focus and I have a list of frequently bought items so I don’t overbuy or spend too much time browsing for things I don’t actually need.
You should try a flex disc for periods. Game changer. You don’t have to remove to empty every time
I got rid of house phone finally!
no clothing that is only for sleeping in - All my clothes are comfy enough to sleep in. Also I have not ironed in decades (except for occassional sewing projects). I haven't given gifts for special occasions in 40 years or more.
I simplified everything in my life ❤. From working to shopping, friendships, wardrobe and lifestyle. Absolutely everything, and my life is more peaceful and meaningful. I agree with lots of points in your list 😊
Love that. Thank you for watching 😊
For Christmas for my boys we do the four presents 1 is a want
2 is a need
3 is a wear
4 is a read
Research has shown children are overwhelmed after 16 toys
The less they have the more that they play with what they have!
That's such a cool perspective. I have found less toys actually worked so much better for my kids too. Thank you for watching 😊
I like this
Yes indeed🎉
Literally screenshotted this to remember for this year... such a good way to look at getting presents for your kids!!
I also quit watching the news and I'm still functioning. You're so right about that.
Great that it’s worked for you too! 💛
I agree over shopping deliveries. Gave up going the shop in person years ago. A lot easier to budget and I struggled to manage with my daughter. I’d forget things or get overwhelmed. I order the ingredients for meals then decide what day I am cooking them by the dates supplied. I also stopped using different skin care. I just use almond oil now. Body. Face. Hair. A lot easier. Once you let go of a habit and get used to it it’s a lot easier.😊. Good luck to everyone one their journey.😊
I'm doing mostly the same things, I love being more minimal. I saved a lot of money and time with that. Glad to see I'm not the only one 😊
So true, saves so much time and money. Thank you for watching 😊
i like how some of your ideas are completely new (to me at least), one thing i did to ease my life, was to use the same shampoo/conditioner/shower gel as my toddler and feeding him the same breakfast and snacks everyday.
That’s cool. I feed my toddler pretty much the same breakfast everyday too, porridge and some fruit 💛
We as a family now use the same shampoo, shower gel/soaps and toothpaste which has really helped keep our bathroom tidy and minimal. My daughter does swim regularly and has a special swim shampoo and conditioner for those days but they live in her swim bag. I've simplified cleaning products too, one antibacterial multisurface cleaner is sufficient for 90% of jobs.
I don't watch the news either, for the same reasons. And you have every right to keep your sanity and mental wellbeing, not just for your family, but for yourself in the first place. Good tips there! Keep it up!
Absolutely, it can affect us so much. Thank you for watching 😊
Great video! I'm just starting my minimalism journey, and I'm happy to see that I haven't even done half of the things mentioned. 👏
Thank you so much for watching 💛
I like using my credit card but I pay it off every month. I use the 5% cash back for X-mas and buy things that I do need. I love your list idea.
Thank you for sharing 💛
If I would ve known minimalism earlier, I wouldn't ve bought so many toys for my baby. It was the worst spent ever
Same, we had way more toys with my first when he was a baby and we definitely didn’t need them all 💛
Wow this video was so interesting. Thank you for sharing. I've actually been thinking about quitting gifts between my husband and I but fet guilty. You explained it perfect. Just once in a while is fine
So glad it was helpful, Rachel. Thank you for watching!
great list!
Thanks, Gabe. I appreciate it! 😊
Fantastic video, thanks for sharing your ideas! 😊❤
Thank you so much for watching 💛
Thanks for the video! I love your content, this is all on point!
I appreciate that. Thank you for watching 💛
Loved your video. I do many of those things. Working at simplifying my home and feel these are great tips to spill over into my lifestyle.
Thank you so much, Heidi!
I keep a credit card for any online buying for protection if something goes wrong. I then clear any debt each month so interest payments
Great that you can keep on top of it. Thank you for watching 😊
We do the same. We actually use our card for all every day purchases, then pay off monthly so no interest. It’s my way of simplifying because I can track all of our spending in one place on top of the additional protection. With all of the ways they can scam you these days, also for travel there are additional benefits, protection from fraud, insurance, low or no exchange fees.
food containers - I swtiched to Ikea containers for everything - freezing, pantry, fridge, etc. they nest, rectangular/square shape very economical on space.
Sounds like you’ve got a good system 💛 Thank you for watching!
I don't watch the news either and it has made a huge difference in my mental health.
My husband and I exchange gifts, but we have decided not buy cards for each other anymore. A card for every occasion adds up, so we just write notes for each other.
I also only shop at thrift stores and buy groceries online to save on impulse buying.
I loved your list! 🩷 Great tips!
Lovely ideas, thank you so much for sharing 🤗
Very useful content. Thank you for making this video, it is very helpful. New subscriber❤️x
I realized that the “hunt” for, or acquisition of, hobby materials was more satisfying than using them. I have amassed a huge supply of stuff for future use that I may never get to use. I stopped buying all but consumable goods. My hobby is stamping greeting cards. I stopped buying stamps but will buy cardstock, adhesives, and inks as I need them.
So true. Thank you for sharing, Shelley!
Beautiful cardigan, where did you get it from? xxx
Gracias
Thank you for watching 💛
I just love your cardigan!! Where did you get it? 🌸
Thank you, it was from Chicwish.
I use house plants for home decor.
That sounds lovely, Michelle 💛
Hi you mention a show in a video but I never heard the name. You said they have people move al items out for time period to see how they feel without it all. Can you tell me the name of show and where I can watch it? Thank you!
It's Sort Your Life Out on BBC. It's amazing, they take all their belongings into a big warehouse and they sort through it all.
I just stopped buying I say keep things out not bring in. It works for me ..unless it's food. Lol
Great you found what works for you 👏
Cancelling tv on demand subscriptions like Netflix, Disney etc. Save money as there is no time to watch them all and guilt that we pay and don’t watch but don’t want to cancel eaither 😅
Thank you for sharing 💛
Great tips. May I ask where do you get your leggings from? 😊
Mostly Lululemon or Adanola. Love the quality. Just a tip, you can also find them on Vinted for a bit cheaper 💛
@@madelinevlogs thanks so much. I will try vinted 😀
My mame mona from indonesia... i already do almost all your quit but mumber 17 omg i must try do that
Sorry my language
Hi, Mona! Thank you for watching!
A credit card is good if you spend wisely. Use the credit companies money for a month and then pay it off.
That sounds sad that you don't buy gifts for each other
As someone who has been through 13 rounds of IVF and still doesn't have a child after 5 years of trying... THAT is infertility. If you have 2 kids... you had trouble getting pregnant quickly. Yes, I'm tired and bitter.
I’m so so sorry you’re going through this.
So sorry try keto diet and sunshine look it up
