I hate to say this, but itâs really refreshing to see a âmessyâ room in your house. Gives me peace of mind that itâs an ongoing process, even for the expert minimalists. đ
Same!
Right?! I noticed that too! I would love for Dawn to do a video on this (maybe she has?) I am trying to be realistic about what mess remains even after I (finally) find my clutter threshold ?
My 8 1/2 yr old sat and watched some of this with me. When you pre-sorting the boys' bins and tossing stuff,, he said "I really hope you don't learn anything from this video." đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
đđ
HaHa
This is great
đđđ
I feel his pain .. đ I watched my mom clean out my toy box one time.... đ
Can I just say.. I really felt the respect you treated your boys with in this video. You didnât call your son a hoarder or disparage him at all. You respected his preferences while also helping him learn. Refreshing and encouraging to see (: ty
This one motivated me to go down and clean the basement playroom! When my kids came home from school, I asked my oldest son to go through a box of stuff I had gathered up and he looked in and said âwhy? Itâs just a bunch of junk. Get rid of it.â đ Whelp, that was easier than I thought it was going to be!
Dawn, I appreciate you as a mom. The way you acknowledge your kidsâ personalities, strengths and weaknesses - lovingly teach them management skills, and find balance. Kudos. â€
Have you considered adding puck lights or light strips underneath their beds in storage/play area? I think that might make the space more welcoming and usable and maybe encourage them to keep it cleanđ
Great idea! I agree
Somehow Boys really seem to like these colorchanging strips ...
Literally translated from a Spanish saying in Venezuela is Blessed be the nothing that brings no bother. In Spanish, âBendito la nada que no trae molestiaâ
Even though Iâm a minimalist and bring very little into the house as Iâm single ⊠two times a year I pack up the house as if Iâm moving and clean top to bottom and get rid of stuff. đ
Iâve been doing this for years! Iâve been ahead of this.
Love this concept!! I can just imagine how peaceful your home feels after each big clean! đ
Great idea! I wish I had that kind of energy.
Neat!
Let Gage be a treasure keeper. Our 3rd was a treasure keeper I just let her and believe it or not today. Sheâs a minimalist !!!!!
As a grandmother I stopped giving things. I give time or a special food or drink
Same thing, our whole family has gone to special food gifts. It is still fun and really cut down on the unnecessary stuff entering our homes.
I'm a grandmother wanta be!! But there are two neighbor boys (9 & 10) that I like to do things for. I always consider that when I give stuff it probably just turns to "junk" so I try really hard to give an activity - it can be movie tickets, a walk on the beach (we live close by), a trip to a favorite hamburger joint with a set budget... for Easter I gave them both tickets for a free game at a local mini-golf and at Christmas we went to see a local Christmas light show. Last year for 4th of July I gave them homemade/decorated cupcakes and a book about the holiday. I'm always on the look out for what active little boys might enjoy and I usually spend less money on an activity than I would a gift.
We give our grandkids money or gift certificates.
Deb here. I have done the same with my nieces and nephew. I opened up an account for each of them and deposit money in it for their birthday and Christmas or any other special event. They still get plenty of things from other relatives. Most of those things get tossed aside eventually as they outgrow it. But they will have money when they get older.
@@rickgonzalez1218 , we did something similar with our daughter when she was in elementary school - opened a custodial bank account for her. When she received cash gifts half of it went to the bank for savings and half she could use if she wanted. By the time she went to college she had $4,000. Not a huge amount but she took out a thousand each year to help with the little extras that wasn't in her budget. It was a great lesson on deferred gratification as she really appreciated that money more when she really needed it.
We have an average sized house with an above average sized family so I feel like we are constantly decluttering kids' spaces. Whenever I feel the tug to look for a larger home it usually means we just need to get rid of a lot of stuff! Newly motivated to get to work on this! Thanks so much!
We're in the same situation - smallish house, large family. What a great idea to read the occasional urge for a bigger house as a cue to declutter!! That makes so much sense, thanks!!
Yes, one thing I appreciate the most about Dawnâs channel is the size of her home!! Many CZcamsrs will move to a bigger house (I donât fault themâŠI would too, if I could đ), and I think it makes them less relatable.
I did this with our kitchen last week. People come over and say, âWow, your house is so clean!â Feels so good!!!! I also did it to our car.
THE CAR!!! That is BRILLIANT! I've come so far simplifying in my home, but my car is a rolling dumpster. I don't know why I've never thought of that!
My oldest daughter would save similar treasures...she's late 20s and an artist, so it's a sign of a creative mind.
I agree that it demonstrates a creative mind! My oldest two daughters are similar - one is a musician and the other an artist.
I'm like this too. Teachers guessed I was type A because I was super organized A student in class, but my room was never that way. I went to school to be a creative in Advertising, so graphic design and writing. đ
I like a clean environment BUT cleaning is hard on me bc my brain doesn't stop going to focus on what spot at a time for cleaning. đ
This is my daughter
I've posted this before, but it's worth posting again:
Something my DinL OFTEN says when she visits my house is, "your house is so peaceful." I believe what she's really noticing is the clean kitchen surfaces, the lack of clutter throughout & the calming effect created by having an easily maintained home. It pleases me, for her, that she has found a place of respite. âĄ
Love this!!!
That was me with my MIL who was a natural minimalist before it was popular. I couldn't understand how she kept her house so clean and tidy. She raised 7 kids in a 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom city townhouse (with a TIDY basement and a shed). She just kept what she needed and it was always enough. She kept brownies in the freezer for the grandkids. Easy to thaw (or eat frozen!!) My 40 yr. old son has fond memories of that. :) Minimalism is where the magic happens.
@@Rosa-kf6yy I wish I knew there was a name for it 35 years ago when I started doing it when Marie Kondo was four years old lol Iâd be retired and very, very wealthy.
My niece says the same thing about our home. The house she grew up in is so cluttered.
I so appreciate that you do not force your kids to get rid of things. In dealing with children and their issues for over thirty years, I can tell you that they need to feel valued and that they have a voice. Respect is a two-way streetđđ»
This is the first of your videos I have watched. I'm reading the comments and shocked people are criticizing your cleaning with the kids. I thought you were gentle and sweet. I know people who clean their kids' rooms when they aren't there and stuff is just randomly thrown out. My husband and I are way too sentimental about things, despite my ability to get rid of a lot, I do also hold on to too much. I think it is great you are trying to involve them in being thoughtful about what they keep. My daughter has been one to keep random empty things, like tictac boxes! Anyway, watching you hush their room has inspired me to find a space to hush right now.
Pulled everything out of my kitchen!! Nothing on counters! I âsleptâ on it for 2 days & loved it!! Donated things I wasnât using, had more than I knew!! THANK U DAWNâŁïžCOULD NOT HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT UâŁïž
Wow!! This is so awesome to hear!!!!
I haven't seen Corbin in a long time. He looks so much more like Tom the older he gets .
Yay, iâm so excited that iâm 50 and can have 50 stuffed animals on my bed! Seriously⊠iâm decluttering but love stuffed animals still so itâs so hard to get rid of any! My kids and i have given them all names and personality!
đđđ I had the same thought! Iâm 50 as well. Love it.
Who needs a big bedroom when you have a cosy den bedroom you love...and huge amount of awesome land outside your house â€
I love this!!! So many minimalist parents seem to be almost too harsh with their kids stuff. Kids just collect weitd stuff and they will let go when they arr ready, we as parents just have to be patient. Recently my daughter brought home 4 rocks she calls her babies and wont let them go. I let her keep them of course but it seems so silly to me. However to her its special and she wants to keep them. I think its amazing you let them keep odd treasures like gum wrappers and prioritize their emotions over having an immaculate house.
Dawn, I love how respectful you are of your children's things. You definitely steer them towards keeping things simple and organized. i had two boys close in age and one of them kept EVERYTHING including lint đ and the other just wanted his books. It's a dance for sure! You're doing great.
Dawn... my LEGO loving heart sheds a single tear every time I see a block going into the black trash bag. Where was Gage when I needed him?! haha My husband just invested quite some time into tracking down a replacement piece in his newest kit that contained a malformed piece. I also wanted to rescue that Lego instruction manual... but I realize these things can be accessed online. Your boys are adorable and you are such a sweet mom. All the best.
Brick link - a great website for specific pieces!
@@helenaschwartz4402 Thank you so much for this information. I'll pass it along to my husband. In the end Lego is mailing him the piece. Luckily it was a piece that is used at the very end so it didn't interrupt the build. LOL
@@jennifershaw4756 haha best case scenario! My family loves Lego too⊠although the fun is definitely in the accumulating of Lego not the maintaining of Lego lol
@@helenaschwartz4402 Hahaha So true!!
LOL!!! I screamed in my head "OMG a LEGO!!!!" as she swept it into the bag. đ
We finally bought a house. So, as each room gets fixed so we can move belongings Iâm totally doing this. The first room to be finished next week is our boysâs room. We have designated it for sleep, clothes, and some personal belongings. All toys will be in a playroom and a few for the toddler in our library/homeschool room.
Just wanted to take a moment to give Gage props for doing such a great job! He had less things to âhushâ, and he was working on his things independently at one point (behind you). Especially impressive if he is battling against his own âcollectorâs mentalityâ to achieve this. You and he should both be very proud of him! My parents always called me their âmessy childâ when I was growing up, and it really did a number on my self-esteem, and actually served to squelch any inclination to do any cleaning whatsoever. (âMy mom says Iâm no good at this, so why try?â) Iâm now trying to undo that mindset, and appreciate the ideas Iâm getting from your videos. Thanks so much!
This is so true about being called messy.
I had the exact same experience đą growing up. Thanks for sharing this.
We hushed my husbands desk yesterday and he loves it. He rescued one thing from the pile, the rest can go
Love the boyâs legos!! Would you believe- we have a 44 yr old son w 3 daughters who is a Nurse practitioner/ Physician assistant, specializes in cardiology/ does family practice WHO has a WHOLE Room full of legos!! Still âplaysâ with them when working through knotty medical issues??? (His girls love them!) Has his childhood legos plus many adult sets as well. His other hobbies are woodworking, and High Sierra hiking/ photography. Someday your boys may need a simple stressless thing to do if they become adults with high paced jobs! â€
I keep a bin on our main floor and I throw the kids current important drawings, little trinkets they accumulate, basically little kid junk/treasures. Now and then, when it gets full, I go through it and almost everything gets dumped. But itâs helpful to contain it all to one area, and if theyâre looking for something, I know where to find it. 99% of the time, they donât ask for any of it and I can get rid of it. Itâs been very helpful!
Thank you so much for your videos Dawn. You taught me to view our stuff differently some years back and I went through and decluttered our whole house. We moved house not long after and the move was so easy with low inventory. Weâve recently moved into a new build and I feel like youâve given me permission to not have a lot of decorations - as I realised I preferred the house before it had furniture in it!
Over the years Iâve watched your videos when I wanted or needed to see a friendly face. I havenât commented before, but just wanted to thank you for being so kind, supportive and optimistic. You have meant a lot to me â€
I just want to say, your an amazing momma! I love that you dont make them get rid if stuff they dont want to. Also, the way you considered tbeir feelings afterwards and during is so sweet and amazing!. Your an inspiration:)
You mentioned things are always coming into our homes. I started tracking how much stuff comes into our home 4 1/2 months ago. I was shocked to find, even though we try to be careful about what we buy, it is still over 1 item a day! (Perhaps even harder than purchasing control, is dealing with all the free stuff coming in.) Been decluttering as well, but it may be time to hush some rooms, to move even more out. Thank you.
Yes!!! So many little things always coming in and floating all over the house. Especially all the little gifts my girls get from family and friends.
I wish I'd known all of this when my 2 boys were younger. Now those boys are men (actually, my older son is in Heaven), and they declutter their own stuff. Recently we went through our library. My husband and I went through them and saved our favorites. My son then had room for his books. When all was done, we've ended up with almost a dozen boxes that need to be donated. Another note: My younger son, now 36, lives in the main house while my husband and I live in an attached ADU. Thanks for everything you do for us. đ
I have been decluttering for several months. I picked a room and went for it, kitchen, bedroom, master bath, basement (nightmare). I've even started a second round deciding there is still so much I can live without. Your approach has been helpful and motivating. Thank you.
I didn't "hush" my livingroom during this video, but I re-arranged a little & moved a few things out
It's looking better. You inspire me always!â€
Squishmallows are the child equivalent of couch pillowsđ
I love them too and I have to ignore them when I'm in stores đ
I definitely bought one for myself to use post surgery lol.
Love your gentleness & encouragement with your kiddos đ
My 9yr old daughter (who sounds much like Gage đ) watched this with me, and is quite inspired! Sheâs excited to try out âhushingâ her room too! Thanks for this inspiration Dawn, Corbin & Gage! Yâall are awesome!
Ooh yay another hush your room video. Can't wait to watch this tomorrow. After you did the kitchen video Dawn, I hushed my conservatory (that was basically a storage area over winter) and ended up with a lovely dining/garden room that I use daily and even if it's raining or cold outside I can see the garden and watch the garden birds which is great for my wellbeing â€
Why do some viewers tell people what to do in their own homes? Not very cool. Loved this video!!
I just started watching this video on our tvâŠand my 20 yr old daughter sat down to join me. I also have one who keeps his room clean, and one who is a treasure saver. In the first 3 minutes of the video my daughter said â I feel attackedâ⊠lol. And she left. We definitely have rooms that need to be hushed here. Harder with a 20 yr old who works full time and is a full time college student.
Have you considered moving the boys into the room you set aside for foster kids?
Or move the boys into the girls' room and let the younger girl have their room and the older girl have the downstairs room
Genius idea!!!!!!!
Yes, we probably will at some point! đ
My husband is your Gage. Empty bottles, cool food wrappers, rocks, etc. Itâs all precious! đ His treasure bin is actually an entertainment center with doors. The same strategies work for all ages who love every single thing.
When you rub your head and ask, âwhy canât they keep it clean?!â Iâm like exactly! That feeling! Omg. Itâs exasperating. My son actually asked me to see this video and I was like, itâs not up yet. He will be so happy when I tell him. đ
Gage sounds like such a sweet kid. Reminds me a bit of my middle boy. Lovely to hear how youre both training him and accommodating his unique needs/values.
I used to be a stager for people to sell their homes. I hushed their homes and then staged it. A few of my customers changed their minds about moving. The real estate agent didn't care for that.
Oh my goodness I know to people who stage and this has happened too people just fall in love with their house again sometimes when everything has been cleared out.
Iâd love to see Cas do your kids room! I think Gage is a butterfly and Iâll bet Cas would make the room super workable for both boys!
I kept a few small things that my sister decided to toss when she got married...an Avon bottle and a couple of her art projects from school. I was around 11 or 12 years old. I decluttered them a couple of years ago. I'm 65.
About 15 years ago I came across some stuff my husband had saved. (Actually, this is something I've done since day 1, he is a sort of hoarder.) It was his brother's elementary school report cards. I asked his brother, do you want these? He says "wth would I want those?!" I ask my husband "Can we let go of these report cards of your BROTHER'S?!" My goodness, he was wracked with anxiety. At the time he was 45 years old. He is like this with everything. I am better but not by much; mostly out of necessity, because we cannot keep everything! I'm frustrated because last year I finally decided to rent a storage unit for all this stuff that I'm sick of looking at but can't go thru. At least everything is being sorted and labeled before it goes into the unit, and the house is getting more peace/less clutter. My goal is to get the house free of this stuff and re-visit the stored stuff. It's like a huge "time will tell" place at this point. :-\ (we are 54&60, with a 19&17 yr old at home.)
@@mom2artists My hubby is a keeper too. I have been decluttering my stuff for 3 years. I declutter around his things. Just getting my own excess out of the house has made a huge difference. I didn't even realize he had so much attachment to things until I started decluttering. He's not an anxious person, but it definitely trigger anxiety in him. I try to be very conscious of that, even when decluttering my own things. I've kept some things that I would have decluttered because I know it would bother him. Other things, I have let them go. He understands my need to have less, and I understand his need to keep things. We've been married 48 years. A lot of years of accumulation. I don't expect him to change just because I did. I just find a balance so that we are both happy and validated in our home.
We did this by accident by clearing out our front room to have it painted. I was blown away by the amount of toys, random clutter, etc in every nook and cranny. I can't wait to put the room back together with half of what was in there. It feels like the reverse declutter method for my closet, only picking all my favorite things to go back in there.
We had to empty the basment for new flooring. I can honestly say. I was amazed at how good it felt empty. Now I've decided only what is needed will go back in and that wont be alot
That will be me soon because my landlord wants to replace all the windows lol
@@LulaMae21 , lucky you!
Hushing is a great time to repaint!
This is exactly what i need to do today. My boys bedroom is trashed and i struggle to declutter more of their stuff. I think we should try hushing it! Thank you! đ
I love this idea of hushing a room!!! I want to try it and know my husband will FREAK OUT but then heâll probably say he likes it and say, âWhy canât you always keep it this clean?â
"Why can't *we* always keep it that clean?"
I just had the interior of my home repainted. We took down every single picture every single window curtain every single valance. It has been amazing. I love it. Itâs like hushing the whole house. Some of the pictures are gonna go back up, but some walls are staying there until we find something new and special to put there. And none of the curtains are going back up because none of them match the new paint! No idea how long it will be before I decide to put some thing on those windows.â€
One of my kids is the same, keeps every little item, even wrappers đ . But the other day my husband told me that same child decluttered his toolbox ruthlessly because it was getting too much for him - this made my minimalist heart jumpđâ€.
Your kids are so adorable! â€
I am that super attached kid recovering at 38 years old. Travel makes it worse because I try so hard to hold on to every memory. I had a cracker barrel syrup bottle too, not long ago. I am not a mother but your episode about doing missionary work in Tijuana with your kids helped me realize that you can be that wild travel soul and bring kids into that and its completely ok. My brother is an American living in Juarez with kids. Looks like you are raising a brave family. If it was normalized to be this kind of mom, I might have been one. Thank you for your open mind. Ill be hushing my house this weekend.
I loved this video so much! I enjoy your longer videos !
Love your videos Dawn, great work and thank you for sharing with us.
So thankful for you, Dawn! You have made such a difference in our home!
The boys did such a great job! â€
Love this! Going to hush my walk in closet first since it's small!
Thanks Dawn. Good job guys đ
Wow Corbin has been growing up! Corbin and Gage look very similar :) ...and both are so cute!
Makes me feel better than no matter how minimalist we get itâs normal for things to get a bit messy at times!
Iâm going to do the kitchen this summer. Thank you for the video đ€©đđŒ
I've recently felt like my small house was closing in on me...I started to do this exact thing today and didn't realize it's a THING! I'm only halfway through the living room but already feel lighter and more peaceful. I wasn't sure I was doing the right thing by donating a huge box of stuff that I once considered treasures (nothing sentimental yet), but when I stepped in the door just now I literally breathed a sigh of relief. I hadn't considered doing this in every room, but I think that's my new plan. Thank you!!
My hubby is like Gage. He feels more comfortable with things around. But I am liking the less is more look and it's easier for me to maintain. Soooo...
I compromised.
Our kitchen is fairly minimal. Clear counters, etc. Easy for me to maintain.
Our family room is also fairly minimal. It's my sanctuary. My peaceful zone.
Our living room has more furniture and decor. That is his peaceful zone.
It's manageable, and just as important, we are both comfortable and happy. I don't feel like the whole house is cluttered and he doesn't feel like the whole house is bare. It's not perfect, but it works for us. That's all that matters.
I'm glad you validate Gage's need to have things. He's a very sweet and creative boy.
Many people enjoy having their things around them. Iâve learned not to judge this. Clutter has become such a negative term.and we shouldnât force our clutter threshold on others.
Hey Melinda!â€
@@carriem4719 Exactly!
@@dianasimplifies Hey sweet friend!
Iâm just so thankful for you and your passion to share minimalism with us!! This week marks 1 year since I found your videos and began the process towards minimalism. I never expected that this would be the answer to my many prayers as an overwhelmed mom. THANK YOU!!!!! May God bless your beautiful family â€đ
Love this idea! Havenât done it yet, but I plan to, and I can see how helpful it would be!!!
Great video! I learned a lot and feel way less stuck!! Thank you đâ€
Oh my gosh! I just did this with my kidsâ rooms last week. All of us are so much happier! They are keeping their rooms clean, Iâm not losing my mind, and they have both said they are sleeping better.
I love that you fixed both the cube dresser to the wall...I love where they are in the room...and I love the gallery wall.
Their room looks SO much better!!
Amazing!!
You are such a breath of fresh air! Thank you.
Haha, is it called "hush".
I used to to this in my room all the time as a kid and now as a grown up I do it once ni a while to. When itÂŽs empty I really really clean every little inch of the room and when I put it back again I decide over one piece at a time, clean it and give it a spot or declutter it.
My family and friends used to tease me for doing this...
I always love how you know each of your children so well! What a gift for them that is â€
Wow Dawn, the boys' bedroom turned out absolutely amazing!! Thanks for another example of "hushing" a room!
This was SO greatâ€
I hushed my kitchen this week. Love it.
Love this idea. â€
This was so validating đ my boys room always looks trashed. My boys are very similar to yours in that they love repurposing boxes, trash, etc. they love to keep treasures. Etc.
I really appreciate you showing the technique of hushing a room. We need to do this in the kitchen, seasonal clothes, etc.
I love the idea of the Time will Tell Bin. It helps me so much to declutter!
This is awesome. Gotta try this.đđđ
Ive really enjoyed this hushing the home
Ive even been doing that outdoors
And has a made a difference for sure
I did this when decluttering my sewing room & I've still not brought everything back in...however, I've not crafted anything either. đ I want to do this with our kitchen too. It has gotten way out of hand, but it's really no fault of our own. The mess will leave our house soon but not soon enough. Great video. đ
I love this approach- makes so much sense, thank you!
So excited to hush my honey office as I start a new job in the next few weeks. Finally time to let go of my fantasy self business items from my skincare business too!
I love that you show the real room, thank you!! We are definitely going to try this, my boys' room is even worse and they are the same way in their personalities of one who collects and one who doesn't!
Funny this video came out! I have been stalled on organizing my office and thought to pull everything out and reset. I didn't realize there was a term for it!
lol your boys are like my girls. One is super neat and organized and the other collects everything, trash, rocks, dollar tree toys etc and spreads her mess out all over lol. The neat one hates it and always asks for her own room
This is where you learn to live peacefully with different personality types. I wonder if your messy one needs to see everything and open bins for things would be a happy compromise.
I love both of your childrenâs rooms! They are so unique and cozy! You did a great job designing and decorating them.
So fun spending time with you, Dawn! And guess what I'm doing... Changing my closet from winter to summer! Gorgeous day in Minnesota!
Aw Dawn really appreciate the advice and help you provide us with. I'm currently hushing my sons shared bedroom. I hope they won't be annoyed đ
I love the way you did the boys room! So creative. And your boy who gets attached to everything, I LOVE THAT, means he is sensitive and caring...AS MARTHA WOULD SAY, " IT'S A GOOD THING" đ
Perfect timing! My husband just said we needed to do something about our boys room & this would help so much.
Aww, sweet Gage and his treasures!âșïžâ€ïž
7:10 that is such a cozy teatime view đ„°
Great job, Gage & Corbin !!
What a great idea. I wish I wouldâve known about this when our kids were in our home.
Great video. I'm going to try and "hush" a cupboard or maybe even just a drawer as a start
