Im a single older woman with no children. I have accumulated way too many things over the years. If you can do this with a husband and children, it inspires me to try and to think I can be successful. Thank you! ❤
Just be careful! I am an older woman, too. I got up on a chair to declutter, fell off, and really hurt myself! It took months for the pain to go away. I am much more cautious now.
You got this girl!
You can do it! Save what's useful and what makes you happy 💜💜 I get excited to declutter things that can be gifts for loved ones :)
@@katia.luna213 Thank you for the encouragement. 🤗💖
You got this! It actually becomes addictive and you will NOT want to stop. When I began I was so overwhelmed, but I just consolidated 3 large storage units into 1 and donated most of the difference. (Some things got thrown away.) Took me 2 months and I got help moving the big pieces of furniture. The rest was me. I’m 60 and had bypass surgery 7 years ago. If I can do it, you got this! Just go slow and stop when your body tells you to! But, oh my, do I feel much better now just knowing I’ve completed this task and when it comes time to move the stuff into a house, it will be so much easier and only the things we truly love will go in it!
For me, once you start letting things go, it get easier and easier. I just purged 7 trash bags from my home. Feels incredible being in that space now that is not full of stuff.
Best feeling ever. ☺️
Not filling it back up is the key.
Yes! I finally let go of a couple of wedding presents (33 years ago) that we NEVER actually used!
Loved how you organized/decluttered your space today. Garage? I have been working inside our house decluttering as well. It takes so long to go through things. I appreciate the tips you give about putting things in containers instead of leaving them in the boxes or plastic containers they came in. I need to watch your video again. Until next time, keep up the good work!@
Time is the most precious gift to give your children it costs nothing😻
I found this video at exactly the right time - I'm so overwhelmed and seeing that I'm not the only one who gets to feeling this way, strange as it sounds, is re-assuring that I am ok, and can do this!! Thank you for being real and sharing - You are an inspiration!! Hugs!
Girrrrl! I have 35 years of stuff, plus aunts stuff, plus parents stuff to purge. I love how you were motivating your self...you can do it!
I started a de-clutter checklist with about 60 very small areas and tasks. Two days ago it was my kitchen table....it's so nice to sit at a clean and uncluttered table! Today (was yesterday's task but I'll do 2 today) was the one kitchen chair that collects clutter. That's done. Now we have 4 chairs to sit at at my nicely cleaned kitchen table. I am also aiming to de-clutter my dresser top today. Last week we found out I'm pregnant. So I aim to be decluttering during this pregnancy so I don't have a ton of stuff to try to clean, organize and work around with a newborn....I'll be 40 when it's born (God willing). My energy needs to be for the baby not stuff.
You got this! I see your comment is 2 months old! Hope your decluttering journey and pregnancy is going well!!
It’s so funny the type of stuff we adults get excited about.
You are my spirit animal. Random singing and dancing and talking to inanimate objects is how I live myself. ❤️😂 you’re amazing. Thank you for the inspiration! I’m getting ready to pack and move myself so this is getting my amped up to purge before we move!
I watch these videos for relaxation. I am naturally pretty tidy and neat and enjoy cleaning so I don't have a problem with motivation, necessarily, but for some reason I like watching people clean!
Do u not accumulate in any area
@@busrayalavacyes, naturally. I was specifically talking about motivation though. I use these videos to relax, not to motivate me to tidy up
Lynn, I just moved to a new house in the country from a house in the suburbs where I lived for over 30 years. The moment I saw how much furniture, boxes, plastic bins we had, I almost started to cry. I’ve been at the new house for about 4 weeks and have been so overwhelmed. I saw your video today and realized that tomorrow I start my journey to declutter and gain some clarity on what is needed in my home versus what I bought just because I wanted it. Thank you for inspiring me❤
I need your energy lol
BUT I am a whole lot older than you so that is taken in consideration too👍🏻 I love to decanter items , have done it for decades. Tic tok …nope.
But I know the CZcamsrs watch it. It’s funny to see people just now discovering what I learned years ago. I appreciate that others can now learn some household tricks off CZcams which wasn’t even thought if in the 70’s-80’s. And you are so right when saying it’s a Marathon, a forever one at that. We downsized over 700sq. ft.about ten years ago I’ve had three garage sales , donated items several times and I still need to do all that again.
Your doing great, keep up the good work, and bonus points for putting your children first❤
I love all the homes with matching bins, but I can't justify getting all new decanters at this time, so I am using the square-shaped plastic tubs that nuts and snacks come in from the big club stores like Sam's Club and Costco. They're square, so they fit in my cupboards well, and they're clear, so I can write on them with a dry erase marker what's inside.
I love this!
That's a great idea! Love it!!
Smart!
My first time seeing your videos. I’m 50 and becoming an empty nester. Enjoying watching you tackle the same chores I am facing right now. What to do with cords and such that are just lingering. It’s nice to hear a young person to say it’s ok to trash them!!! Also, the putting the huge Oxyclean into a more manageable container! Duh!!!! Why hadn’t I ever thought of that?!?!? I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks😅
i love decanting! getting rid of the 'loud' packaging makes my space more calm and collected
One realization I had while we were packing for our move: try to box up a portion of your space (even if you use them. Once some things are in boxes, the space becomes clear and you see a different perspective with how you want to live…with lesser things
When my kids were small, I read to them every single night before bed. If I had a hard day and wanted to skip it I quickly learned that it took FAR less time to give them my undivided attention then it ever did to try and half ass it. After a story they would go right to sleep. No problem. No story, they were thirsty, they were scared, there was a monster, they didn't feel so good, wait, they have to go to the bathroom.... you get the point lol
I love opening a cupboard and seeing all of my organising instead of opening and shutting the door or drawer as fast as I can before everything falls out or over😂😂
The problem for me is that I really enjoy watching you (usually in bed) that I don’t want to clean. 😂 Sending your family love from your uk nutter❤
I loved what you said. One thing at a time it's a marathon, not a sprint! Your words were much more elegant! Thank you! 😘🥰
Love you Lynn
Throw it out
Lots of anxiety all my life
Cant deal with ANY clutter
Or decorations
I could watch you all day. I love decluttering and organizing but you bring me so much joy every time I watch you. It’s almost a little therapy session every time I watch your videos.
Im in frail health and miss cleaning, organizing, painting walls, cupboards, furniture. And yard work. Now that I can barely get around Im not getting enough movement=blood thinner shots daily, colostomy bag...5 ft sm intestine left. PICC line where I get IV fluids..my food. IV meds every 4 hrs for severe nausea and vomiting. Been dead several times, my son is 36 n takes cre of me. But man we're so depressed, the house hasnt had a deep clean since dad passed in 18. My 76 yo mom has no motivation either. Being bed bound is aweful. I sense a change thank the Lord, Hes giving me the energy to do 5 mins at a time. Seeing you clean makes me wanna clean. Please pray for us..depression, an addiction and mental illness in this household. We need healing. God bless an d ty
I’ve done several bags to my Pdsa the other day. Still going through stuff. It amazes me how much money we spend on stuff and then in a few years we either don’t fit into the clothes (for me I lost three stones) and now have to give away pretty clothes. Donated three bags of books did wipe the covers so they don’t have to do that in the charity store. Please think of the work that they have to do in the shop when someone donates plates etc that are dusty we have to wash them before they can be sold. I’ve worked in several charity shops and I have had to wash things before selling them to customers.
Lynne I’m like you hate spiders 🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️but you’re doing great. Love your videos
Listen here Sis!!!! YASSSSSS! This is how we do it! ❤😂🎉
I WISH Walmart Plus was in my area 😢 I love how transparent you are. You have helped me more than you will ever know ❤
I agree! I love organizing my house! I think I could declutter my house every month. I keep a box and as I organize I fill the box up and take it to the donation place. Everything is looking good! You Go Girl!
I ♥️ the white letter labels. Thoughtful - in choosing to donate to Hospice/Salvation Army. Repurpose cereal container; I do the same with our oxy clean. I ♥️ that you didn't get upset about receiving the wrong lids. Life got busy, hadn't seen your vlogs in along time, I'm happy to be back and see that you're almost at 100k 🎉. Stay humble.
Staying for the positive energy, practical real life content, inspirational & motivational vlogs. (It does feel like your teaching down to us, you're actually practicing what your saying). 🙂
I love this! I’m currently expecting baby number 3 in September and I’ve been on a nesting mission decluttering and organizing and deep cleaning. I’m trying to make my house function as smoothly as possible since I’ll have 3 kids under 4 🤪 this is just the motivation I need!
Congrats, I'm nursing my 3rd right now, oldest is 4 😂 enjoy it!!
I did this for months before I had my 5th baby in April!
We’ve a house full with our 3 grown up children aged 19-23 years & our 4 year old & our 11 week old 🥰
Take full advantage of that nesting instinct 🤣
@@sitcomchristian6886 thank you! Congrats to you too! Definitely needing to embrace the chaos with three young kids but we wouldn’t change it for anything
@@tinacutts4246 yes, whenever I have motivation I’m trying to use it! Congratulations! A house full of family is a house full of love. I’m sure you’re embracing the craziness and loving every second of having all of your kids with you
@@shelbybeatty4039 I am especially as I’ve experienced how time really does fly with my older 3 growing up. Love having them around me 🥰
Loved that reflection of giving each child our undivided time. I needed to hear that ❤❤
I became debt free using daves techniques. Im currently downsizing from 400 sq ft to a car!
I Love you Lynn !! I am a human tornado this weekend, cleaning and organizing everything! All thanks to you and motivating my old tired Arse lol
I share your fear of spiders...speaking of which, I have framed a page that I tore out of a humorous book, that says, "Research says: If you're really scared of spiders, you're likely to find one in your bedroom...I'm really scared of Johnny Depp". 🤣🥰 Just had to share that for a laugh!! Big Johnny Depp fan here! Love your video! Real inspiration for me to get back on track with my decluttering!
Love dawn and cass too! Started a year ago going slowly through the house now pulling another onion layer off going back through again for round 2
I'm just about to finish round 1 and OMG I feel so free!!! Like I can breathe again!!! I went in HEAVY but passed on certain areas as they were already somewhat organized/neat looking, but I know there's stuff inside I'll want to get rid of eventually. Round 2 after will be less intense as I can just grab 1 bin at a time and go through them as I find the time vs dedicating a full 2 weeks to a big declutter. My husband is away for work and I can't wait for him to come home later this week and see our house going from level 1 hoarder, approaching level 2 (I was sick the last 2 years and ended up having a few surgeries back to back last winter and things got seriously out of control), to neat and tidy with 0 clutter. He's aware of what I'm doing but I refused to send pictures so the results will be a surprise. As I'm getting older I know I'll get more health related episodes and I don't want this to happen again so keeping closer to bare essentials/things we actually use will make things easier on everyone.
Girl I feel you on wanting to see every moving thing, especially spiders! We moved from the city to the country just like you did , 22 months ago. I’m on the same journey. Lot’s of projects, and lot’s of decluttering and freshening. It just takes triple time trying to film it. I fail at the filming most times, because I’ll declutter a handful of minutes here and there as I’m cooking or whatever. You’re doing great ❤
I have been cleaning, decluttering and organizing my butt off these last few weeks and I have donated so much and last week had a garage sale and made some money to put toward my Spring Disney trip it was so great and have a few more items that I am going to list on line. I honestly feel my house can breath now. I think we all fall into the we need when we see others have something but I'm not doing that anymore it's got to be something we really love. Our new motto is we need it, love it, use it or wear it then it stays but if not it is gone. Keep up the great job Lynn
I’m obsessed with all your new-house videos… it’s reminding me how much I want my current house to feel like a peaceful home, even though I really want a different one. I also appreciate all your tips and encouragement. My youngest is getting ready to start kindergarten (my other two are teens), and it’s such a difference being older with this one (I’m 41). I need to be sure I’m spending quality time with all of them, but especially him at this age! ❤
Your videos have really been spot-on lately. I found myself sitting here nodding my head in agreement with so many of the things you're saying. 👍
I just love you Lynn! You're so real and have such good advice.
Spiders don’t like……..strong smells. 😂 Tell that to an Australian Spider 🕷 Love this video.thanks for sharing your journey.
Loved the organization. Loved the dancing and singing even more. The TikTok song, I sing all the time.
You do you. I love to decant things. It allows me to see what I have and how much I have. I’m currently in the process of redoing my daughter’s old room into a multi purpose type of room ( my office and pantry and the closet into a cleaning closet).
I agree, I hate to add to my husband’s to do list as well. ❤ I try to do what I can on my own. He happily does things for me though. 🥰
Cut a black piece of construction paper to back the dryer sheets. :) Great job! Love it. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you so much! I was very comfy on the couch but you motivated me to finally deal with a box that has been staring at me for weeks or even months! Such a relief❤
Spelling love as TIME - yes!!!!!!! Definitely such a great reminder, thank you 🥰🥰
Starting in one spaces and seeing the results make me more motivated to keep going I struggle right now with papers like bills paid owners manuals receipts I have them in a file but it is not working that great would love a video on paper clutter but love your videos ❤
I love this video. Very motivating and inspiring. So proud of you decluttering and making this home a peaceful environment for your mind and family.
I absolutely love Dawn too! She definitely makes life better!
I love your spunk and energy! You are always an inspiration for me! Thank you Lynn!
It so satisfying to see how your decluttering I have started on my son’s room!! I have clear cereal container for my oxi clean, baking soda, scent booster! It’s so therapeutic mentally for me!! Thank you for keeping it real!! Can’t wait to see more videos ♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I hear you lynne! I am also on a declutter and clea until I'm less stressed phase...I'm chronically ill so I'm slow but one bit at a time x
I watch a lot of youtubers and I must admit Lynn your my absolute favourite, always look forward to watch them ❤
Awwwwwwwwwww Thank you for watching. It means so much to me. ❤️
OMG I'm in the midst of a declutter in my apartment and having to do it in stages. Which means everything, everywhere for a bit. Driving. Me. Nuts. I needed this motivation today!
Same, I just went room at a time cleaning first, next going back to each to purge, then the fun part of moving things around.
Love watching you Lynn. You’re such a hard worker and it shows! Keep up the good work. 😊
So motivating Lynn; thanks for all you do.
Honestly with your laundry in the garage decanting into air tight containers it’ll protect the laundry stuff from getting ruined from humidity
a real woman implementing ideas. Thank you for taking me along as you work thru your spaces. So grateful for you sharing this, and every bit of the souring which occurs in the south. Love & light to you.
I am slowly working on my garage. This helped motivate me today.
We have a very similar organizing style. I have taken 4 or 5 car loads or more of clothes, just random stuff, finally went through after 8 years of my late mothers belongings. Yes it feels great to get out. Still not done though. Just wish my husband was on the decluttering train. He never can find anything.
Lynn, WOW!!!!! You're dynamite and so stinkin cute when your cleaning
Great job my friend, you truly are my INSPIRATION!! ❤❤❤
Had to smile when you put your detergent into that container and it fit perfectly. When things go right for me, I do a little dance and sing, Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me. Always counting my small blessings every day. ❤️❤️❤️
I am in the same boat! I just last week downsized from a 1000 sq foot apartment to a 648 sq foot apartment. I thought i gave away enough, but my new living room is WALL to WALL Home Depot cardboard boxes of stuff! Aaaaarrrrrggggghhhhh!!!! There is no better way to simplify than to shove all your crud into a smaller space. I am on the edge of overwhelmed. Not quite there yet. Getting the garbage bags ready . . .
🫂🫂🫂🫂
Lynn, we are kindred spirits! When that oxiclean fit perfectly and you did a happy dance, i felt the same!
AND my husband is an hvac contractor in west TX and suuuper busy in summer!
Friend, sister- you get me!!!!!!
Oh. My. Gosh! God bless you! I just watched a video of my twin!! I am so happy your video found me just when I needed you. Your ideas and inspiration help so much. I love the feeling of decluttering and organizing but I also deal with procrastination. And I’m at a stage of my life of serious purging as we prepare to move into our new home in about a month. I’m just going to sit here and watch more of your videos. How’s that for putting off the inevitable? Bless you and your sweet family, and thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
I enjoyed listening to you Sing, You keep it up. Always sing & dance , like nobody's watching. God Bless.
Sour laundry tip: I learned a long time ago, dry the sour load, then rehash it. If you skip the first dry the sour lingers from wash to wash.
This house suits you all so much better! Definitely will be better for you to purge and have a clear space! Girl your voice though love it!
Love it thankyou so much Lynn! This is what I need to get all my decluttering done while on holidays 😊
Thanks Lynn! You are just the motivation I needed.
I absolutely love your videos! You are very inspiring and motivating, and I love the fact that you are so real.
I love your vibes 🤣🙌👏
Your inspiring me to purge now 😁
No,no,no, You are soooo beautiful. You do not need any of it. You look really good as is.
You are my inspiration, thank you for being you, Lynn you look amazing!
I always donate to VVA for our veterans! Another good one if they are in your area 😊. Thanks for sharing! 😊❤️👏🏽
I just love your energy and vibe…so glad I came across your channel a year ago
Lets keep us posted....here i gooo!
Great job!! I love decluttering the house. Makes everything feel so good! 😊
As always.....inspiring!
Thank you so much for the encouragement Missy. I really needed that today. ❤❤❤
I’m moving to a new house next week snd you’ve give me a ton of motivation 😎
Love the video! Just a tip for the laundry… vinegar to remove the stench & set a timer for 5 minutes before the machine is about to be done.
Very motivating - you sure work hard!! I love that you keep it practical and keep encouraging us to do the best we can - reminding us that it doesn't have to be perfect. (Would like to have seen a view of the whole room to see the before and after.)
Watching this while washing my dishes not knowing how much I was going to relate. Way past a cluttered house lol! I live near to Busch Gardens too and also my husband is an HVAC tech 😂😂😂 Gotta do everything possible to make things easier for them in the summer ❤❤❤ Thanks for sharing your life!
Thank you Lynn! 🩷
Another great video Lynn. Thank you for sharing!!
I’m with you about having locking tops on storage boxes. I had some with snap on tops that once full the tops kept popping off. Costco had a deal on a three pack of the locking storage bins so I picked up two of them. Slowly replacing them and using old ones to pack things in to donate.
I need to go through our common spaces again too. We don't have anything overflowing but there's always things to declutter.
Just wanted to share. Using vinegar in the fabric softener dispenser helps give you a little more time to change over loads of laundry.
So much fun watching you work 😊 great video
Thank you Lynn for sharing. I needed to hear 🙏❤ Great motivation!
Lov videos like this. I love to declutter ❤
The barn will be a "game changer"!
The happy dance because it fit was everything!
I am cleaning as I watch you, thank you for sharing. Love your music.
You are so smart to do that for spiders. I literally was bit Friday by a black widow. Not fun for four days but feel great now. Needless to say we had our house and garage and buildings sprayed yesterday. He said inside lasts two months and outside lasts 4 months. You might want to get yours sprayed too. At least now I’m slightly more comfortable. (I sealed everything too)
You are on Your way to a Brighter Future !😁
You did a great job! Inspired me so much! Thank you!
Thanks for showing how to clean the vacuum! I just did mine and oh the dirt!
i love that you are taking the labels off your bins. i've gotten so many second hand bins with the labels still on! who does that! is it just me? is this just a me problem? 🤯 hahaha 😂
I totally just went through and removed all the labels from pillows, Hand towels, and bath towels.. I didn’t even think about that. But I always take labels off of things like shoes. Mind blown
@@ramonaneyrinck2292 right!? labels are such a nuisance.
Great video! It must feel amazing to get rid of all that! If you (or anyone here) have more electronic things to declutter, Best Buy will take e-waste in-store or in a box you can ship to them. For Days also does recycling bags for textiles including home goods and shoes that you pay $25 for and then use as a credit for clothes from their shop. Just options to keep in mind as we get rid of stuff we don't need :)
