About 11 yrs ago, we paired things down and let go of things that weren’t serving us in a positive manner. I am thankful I have been able to maintain. If I need part ways with items it an easy task that always leaves me feeling refreshed. I love when Carla helps those in need.

      I have 26 pairs of shoes, four pair cowboy boots, one pair regular boots, one pair rain/garden boots and one pair garage shoes. As a senior I probably only really use about four pairs. Plus my feet hurt with some of them. The other shoes get used when I dress up which isn’t often. And most of my shoes were thrifted. So I need to get rid of about half of them!

    This is great motivation. I watch for about 10 minutes then tackle a cabinet for 10 minutes. Watch another 15 minutes then tackle a different cabinet for 5. Today I went through my candles. When I have the urge to order something, I watch your videos first and organize what I already have. Throwing away packaging, inventory what’s already there, sorting, tossing, organizing.
    The typical net result is that I am reminded that “I am enough and I have enough.”

He was leaving pieces of the sole all over the brunch venue and was incensed that they’d broken… until I asked how old they were and he said probably 15 years 😅 it honestly provided some levity for a difficult day.

    Flat sheets are fantastic to sleep with. You put it on the top of you -underneath the duvet. It makes a sandwich of nice feeling sheets, so you don’t have to spend the money on higher thread count duvet cover. You don’t have to wash your duvet every week cause you’re washing the top sheet. It also looks really nice.

    83 isn’t bad! I helped my sister move apartments. I stopped counting how many pairs of shoes she had after I hit 200. She loved them all! I think I only have 8 pairs of shoes which even for me feels excessive because I truthfully only wear 3 pairs regularly. My shoes last forever though since I’m in a wheelchair. Shoes don’t really get dirty if they never touch the ground. Plus it lets me get away with wearing tall high heels because it’s not like my feet are gonna be sore since I’m not walkin’😂 I do however have an insane amount of socks. I have no idea why. I have never once purchased socks. Everyone gives me socks!! I feel bad getting rid of them though because they are perfectly good socks! I got rid of about half my stash today though because they were all brand new and I figured someone else could use them. So I can’t really judge anyone for having too many shoes when I have too many socks! We all have our things that we collect/hoard

    When I moved to this house, during the Covid lockdown in a scorching heatwave, because everything was closed up and I couldn't get any help, I had to bring all my clutter (and even some furniture that was too big for this new place!) with me. I'd been in my previous cottage for 8 years, I'm an artist and crafter, so you can imagine I'd 'accumulated' lots of stuff. I was so stressed by how disorganised everything was, I grabbed my trainers, house slippers and some flip-flops and then threw all my other shoes into this big plastic storage container with wheels that I could push under the bed. It was meant for storing bedding but my shoes were everywhere, like they were breeding. Thankfully my 2 favourite pairs of winter boots were too big to fit and just got thrown in the back of the wardrobe. 2 years on and I was getting ready to go out for my birthday... and decided I wanted to wear a specific pair of shoes... but couldn't remember where the hell I'd put them. Then I realised that I had just worn the Trainers/flip-flops/house slippers and those 2 pairs of boots for that whole time and the rest of my vast collection of footwear had never crossed my mind! When I finally remembered the underbed storage box.... all my high street fashion shoes had disintegrated!!!!! If the heel and base are made from certain cheap plastics, storing them together like that actually caused them to develop cracks and they all had to go into the rubbish. Such a shock but also taught me I do not need many pairs of shoes, so will invest in decent pairs if I do buy in future.

    First let me say thanks to Becky for opening her home up like this. Very brave. I kinda have 5 pairs of shoes but I typically wear the same ones depending on weather. Birkenstock in good weather and converse in the cold. Now I have two big bags of shoes in my closet to donate because my friends are always giving me shoes because they don't think I have enough 😂. The amount of shoes she has is just insane to me, but I have friends like her and they wear all the shoes so no judgement.
    The decluttering and organizing method you use doesn't work for me. It's the typical way to do it, but it's useless for me. I follow Dana K White. Clutter threshold, container theory and where would you look for it first. Also if stuff has too many steps to putting it away, I just don't do it. I absolutely love watching your videos especially when Samson is in them❤

    I once had around 150 pairs of shoes. I've been decluttering that area for years and am down to just over 30 pairs. I'm hoping to get it down to 25 and I think that's where I would like to stay unless I feel inspired to declutter further.
    Also, flat sheets provide a barrier between your comforter and body the same way fitted sheets are a barrier between your body and mattress. It helps for laundering!

    Nice job ladies! Love seeing the After transformation! Wow 80 plus shoes!! It’s like a scene out of Nordstrom’s! Lol. Not sure if Carla has assigned any homework but maybe Becky you can review your pens, paints and markers just to make sure nothing is dried up if you haven’t done so already? Just a thought! Kudos again on doing a great job ladies!

    Thank you

    Ok Carla, answering your first question, I think I have somewhere between 75 and 100 pairs of shoes. OMG I am obsessed with boots especially combat boots and Converse so I have a tons of pairs in different colors and designs.

    Flat sheets are essential! It’s easier to wash a flat sheet every week vs washing my duvet cover! And duvet covers are usually more expensive than sheets; washing the cover monthly vs weekly (because it is less soiled thanks to the flat sheet) - I don’t need to replace my duvet cover as often.

  • @priscillavrooij
    @priscillavrooij 8 місяців тому +2

    I love to challenge myself every once in a while (like weekly or every other week) to just find 5 to 10 things that I can declutter. I find that this way works really well for me and it most times makes me excited to find even more.

    Yay I love this! 83 oh my! I’m a Minimalist and think my 15 pair is too many LOL but I have 4 seasons so that includes winter boots and rain boots. I have a few unique converse like the galaxy ones and aqua hombre but I mostly wear my vivobarefoot because at 42 I need comfort lol. I can’t believe when I lived in nyc 22 years ago I wore heels everyday!

      Yea, if I didn't live in such a seasonal climate, I would totally reduce my # of shoes and clothing. But one day it's hot and the next is cold. Plus, you have to take into consideration profession, work boots etc are a necessity.

  • @vanillaskye55
    @vanillaskye55 Рік тому +3

    So next year you should go back through all of it. What is still working/what isn't and needs to be fixed. Declutter more. Then, make a pass through the rest of the room.

    Young lady, I just started watching you today to help me finish a declutter project. Watching y'all made me tired😂but I was encouraged to keep going. The more I declutter, the more I realize how much more I need to declutter. I don't want to be weighed down by things anymore. I have tons of identity clutter, sentimental, and just in case, or poverty/lack clutter. You two worked so well together! I think the best thing about a friend is being able to tell the story of the items. ❤❤❤❤❤

    So nice of you to help your friends, looks great too many shoes though. Last year I decluttered 2/3rds of my wardrobe then I went back a months later & removed half. I don't miss any of it. She probably doesn't wear half those shoes & when we are older & somethings not comfortable give to someone who needs it & it doesn't pain them :)🎉

    That was a lot of shoes IMO. I was keeping shoes that I hoped to wear but have come to the realization that I most likely won’t wear them. Some were platforms and since I’m getting older and suffer with arthritis I decided to be smart and declutter. My future daughter-in-law is living with us and lucky for her we’re the same shoe size. I have also donated shoes to soles 4 souls which sends them to third world countries. I find it easier to let go when I know my things will be well used and appreciated rather than sitting in my closet. Carla thanks so much for these videos. I think it’s great that you can help your friends.🥰

    I tried the laundry soap, and I was impressed. I used to use liquid and now I'm in love with sheet soap. No lugging, no spilling, no storing and my.clothes are clean. I am a hairdresser, so I don"t know how it would work on a mechanic's clothes, but I think it's worth a try for the average person.

  • @maximumvio1et677

    I really love how gentle you were with her about decluttering. I feel like a lot of the time there is pressure to get rid of stuff and even when she gave what some people might think is a flimsy excuse ("might use it for a costume") you didn't push her. It's refreshing to see when most people are kinda guilt tripping during decluttering.

    She has quite a collection and a wonderful space. It looks like there were some organizing attempts lol with all those different shelves and zigzag storage things.
    I don't understand shoe collecting since I find they tend to rot after a while if you don't wear them. But I think she did a great job getting rid of some. I love how they were displayed at the end.
    The final result was amazing. It makes me want to go buy more organizing bins and shelves. (I have a problem 🤣)
