I always love hearing why people are getting rid of items. It always makes me think more about my own things.
As soon as you held up the bowl I thought that looks like a fun popcorn bowl for the family. It also looks like a good size of bowl to hold chips, or snacks when you have a party, or company comes over. Also, a large salad, again if you are entertaining in the future.
great options for blanket donations is nursing homes and shelters, those are always needed and loved.
You can donate ALL the red bowls, there’s plenty of other things you can use for candy at Halloween that are useful the rest of the year too, like colanders, mixing bowls, decor bowls, baskets, etc.
I agree! I like to ask “can I do without this? What could I use instead of this?” rather than finding uses for things. It’s also really easy and cheap to replace if you decide later you “need” it.
I love the way you think!
“Mess-makers,” yes Candice, YES!!! I can’t even. If I get tired of picking it up, it GOES!!!
Oh, I’d use the big bowl for cubed watermelon in the summertime!
Just in the last few weeks watching your channel (which I’m literally obsessed with) I’ve taken so many trips to goodwill, sold items, and put free items by the road. I am feeling so good about having less. Thank you for you videos I truly enjoy them daily!!!
I'm so happy to hear!!!
You could use the red bowl as a punch bowl, mixing bowl, popcorn bowl, salad bowl. I have also used a bowl like that to wash my face masks in the with come soap. Someone recommended not washing your face masks in the laundry because you put these on your mouth/face and you wash other dirty items in the wash machine (undies/socks). So I use hot water and a pinch of tide powder and let them soak in the bowl and then rinse and dry.
I have 6 garbage bags full of things sitting on my driveway right now, waiting for donation pickup!
We are moving this month so I have been using lots of your tips! Much easier to declutter before moving!
My mother in law uses a bowl like yours as a cover turned upside down over a plate. Its perfect if you bake a cake and then put it on a plate and cover it, especially if you don't want to use up space for storing a glass cake holder:)
Genius! Thank you for sharing your tip!
I went over to my friends new apartment the other day. I was so minimalistic I felt I could really breath in there. I thought I had decluttered my home, but as it turns out I need to have another go at it for it to be tidy and clean the way I want it to be! Thank you for the inspiration! 😊
I love hearing these stories! It encourages ME to keep going! Thank you!
When my kiddos where younger, we kept a bowl as a vomit bucket, too many times we tried to get them but it went everywhere! Kinda gross but easy to transport and clean
We had a red bowl for ours. Right beside them in the bed when things were questionable!
Used to keep a dish pan underneath bed. When needed was placed on top of an old beach towel on the floor next to the bed. Saved me a lot of laundry!
We just recycled and used our gallon size ice cream bucket.
Thank you for sharing. You are getting ruthless at this now . It’s very encouraging. 💛
We use our large mixing bowl for Halloween candy. No need for a special dish! Great vid!
I love your channel. Your joy is contagious. Thank you for the inspiring and encouraging videos.
You are so welcome!
I love your space- white- light and bright.
Decluttering is my favorite thing!!! 👏👏Great video! 🥰
Growing up, I used to watch kids get new binders, bookbags, pencil holders, everything new for each new school year. We couldn't afford that, and now I still don't understand why all the waste. I used the same bag and binder for years.
I know I am a bit late to the party, so I don't know if you will see this, but I use those big bowls to wash hand-wash only items. I don't have many of those types of clothing items, and I don't have a "laundry sink" so they are great for putting in my kitchen sink (it is huge) to wash those items.
I LOVE your idea!!
When you said “mess makers” it took me back to my kid’s legos when they were little. I only bought them once for Christmas and every time I swept the floor and I found them I threw them out and slowly they disappeared 😱
lol
Ok. Idea for the red bowls. When I was little, my mom put a red bowl under my bed.... Incase I got sick in the night. 🤢 Not glamorous, but it saved us multiple times.
Great for that!!!
Yay... I was hoping you'd be one of the contributors for this event!
Uses for red bowl:
1. washing small batch of vegetables or fruits
2. defrosting large item
3. hand washing lingerie
4. Corralling small items
What a great list! Thank you!
These are wonderful suggestions. I was thinking of using it for when I hand wash my bras. So I agree with that idea; it's a perfect size for even hand washing larger items, too.
Red bowls good for classroom potlucks sleepovers as chip bowls quick catch that leak buckets. Mine now are all glass bc my kids took ones like yours to events over the years.
Thanks for all your ideas!!
I’m constantly purging!! I feel like I do it every weekend 😝
I was able to declutter some jewelry today. I chose to sell them instead of donating. Still somewhat new jewelry worth selling. Got it out of my house fast.
That is awesome!
Those big red bowls would work well when you are canning!
GREAT idea!! I would love to get into that!
I'm literally wearing a Polk a dot dress today!!!
That t shirt looks gorgeous on you!
That is a good size bowl for a little sensory bin. I would put some water or sand in there and let my son have at it.
Oh perfect! She loves stuff like that!
Popcorn bowl!
The big red bowls could be used when kids are sick to leave beside them
I actually thought of that, too!
Loved this video ✅. Also your top is spot on 👍🏼 suits you 💖💝
I love your style, it feels like modern 80s.
I bought one of the peg toys and it was missing three of them but my baby enjoys playing with it just the same she doesn't know it's missing anything
You reminded me to get new glass tupperware and new pans!
It makes such a difference!
To all the people mentioning keeping puke bowls under a child's bed... Do you not have a waste basket in each bedroom? Less clutter because the waste basket will be used all the time. It also cuts down on finding kid's trash everywhere else...
I don't have a waste basket in the bedrooms, but it's a great idea!
RED BOWL... under the bed for a barf bowl if someone is not feeling well. Will safe a lot of missed trips to the toilet. Wish I had bought of it His when mine were younger, would have saved a lot of dirty sheets and carpet. We always take one on vacation just for that, and make it easy to get to in the van.
OK This is genius!!
Red popcorn bucket for family movie night.
Love it!
Love your channel!❤
Love it! I love your counter tops what kind are they?
The big bowl could be used as a feet soaker if you like to do pedicures!
You could use the red bowl in the summer to hold water balloons!
Cutest idea!
Great video! Do you keep your purse on your counter? My mom always freaked out when I did that, lol
Your home is beautiful!
Sometimes LOL
In regards to the big bowl you are keeping for Halloween candy....you are going to have it take up space in your home to use ONCE per year? you have nothing else you could empty for ONE day like a basket or some other pot or bowl to hand out candy with....I'd personally punt the bowl for a ONCE per year use!
Baking liners and bags should all be kept together in one cohesive space whether it be a drawer near food prep or in the panty but not with everything in the junk drawer.
@Heather O'Toole I love the idea of decorating a box! That could be really fun. There’s almost always something you could use instead of keeping a single-use item, but it’s easy for people to justify (other people) keeping things.
@Heather O'Toole it was more the debating to keep it and she came up with a reason that to me just for a one day use seemed to not justify it to me..I like the decorated box idea even the puke bowls another mentioned --- I am TRYING to declutter....two carloads of STUFF donated already!!
I was cooking while listening & heard "redbulls" & was like noooooo dont get rid of them! Lol
HAHA!!!
If you are missing pieces of game, etc. call or email the company for they may sale the missing pieces. I had receive the pieces cheap or free.
I had no idea! Thank you
My son would love that minecraft lunch holder...:) his whole room is minecraft
TQ for another great vid . I hv seen a lot of vid with hse decor. Just out of curiosity why the latest trend that the throw cushion is to be “chopped”. To me it somehow looks so ugly. it is like a baby bum 🤣😅😂😂 sorry . May i suggest u go for conventional way it will suit ur beautiful sofa & hse better . just my opinion
My sister is the same...she HATES the chopped pillow...I LOVE it!!! haha! To each their own!

Oh no! Thanks for letting me know
Red bucket/bowl... Valentines Day, 4th OF JULY, Christmas, Birthday party, NOT just Halloween!!!
Americans have decorations for valentine, saint patrick, 4th of july, easter/spring, superbowl, autumn/halloween, thanksgiving, christmas. Did I miss any? (Not american here, I think this is a strange thing from your culture)
Some people decorate for all of those, yes, and maybe more (New Years, Mothers/Father Day, etc) but many people only decorate for a few. It’s easy to buy decorations at the dollar store, grocery store, hardware store, home good stores, etc and people think they are cute. Those things are often really cheap here - maybe only $1 each. So much junk.
I have to admit, I have decorations for some of those! The key for me is to keep things very minimal, and only choose a couple of holidays to decorate for!
I like to decorate, but choose most things for seasons so they can be used longer and I have less items. Christmas is the exception. :)
We only decorated for Christmas and Halloween
Just waiting you to wearing dark or black nail polish on your next video😍😍
I wish I were brave enough LOL

Red Bowl >>> Popcorn night and a movie?
Food diaries, for what I know, encourage eating disorders. They are not recommended
It has been very helpful for me to keep on track with making healthier choices ☺️
Your white balance drives me nuts. Do you need help fixing it?
