- Goodmorning friends and welcome to the beginning of my 30 day declutter challenge! For 30 days I picked a new spot in my house that needed to be more organized and most importantly decluttered, i decluttered over 1000 items!!! 🤯 I wish I counted the items, but honestly there was just so much that had to be decluttered and I was just trying to get it done, so I could get back to doing the things that I love! Which btw isn’t cleaning! 🤣 With most of the areas I chose to do the Konmari method of decluttering, which for those of you who aren’t familiar with that, the Konmari method encourages decluttering by category not by location, you bring everything out of the area you are cleaning, and you try to keep only those things that spark joy in you and make you happy. I also always try to clean using the Swedish death cleaning method, which is a bit more extreme where you declutter things so that when you pass away you don’t burden your family with a bunch of useless stuff that they may feel like they need to keep. Usually, it's not recommended to start this type of cleaning until you are about 65 years old. But i really like the concept of it, it helps me look at things in a new light, especially when I am decluttering. It makes me ask myself if I passed away tomorrow is this item really that important? The answer is usually no, so it helps me to declutter much more than i would have in the past before adapting to this new way of thinking!
You all know how much i clean declutter and organize over here on my cleaning channel, but this challenge was a big one! In today's cleaning video i am sharing just the beginning of my challenge!! I still have 20 more days to go of this 30 day declutter challenge but this video is already 40 minutes long so I thought I would break it up into 2 or 3 parts, if you want to see the rest of my declutter challenge be sure to subscribe before you go today and make sure you have your bell notifications turned on to ALL so that you are notified when my next video comes out! ✨✨✨
With all of that said I hope that after watching my major decluttering video today, you feel motivated to join me in this 30 day declutter challenge! ✨✨✨

My grandma once told me "it's just stuff you can't take it with you" and it completely changed my outlook on buying.
YES I love this! 🙌 Old people are so wise, we need to listen to them more, Thank-you for sharing! 💕💕💕
This is so true. Makes me not want to buy stuff only have fun experiences with my family. My living room is literally couch and TV, dining room is table and pantry. Bedrooms are bed and dressers. Sounds boring but easy to clean. What takes the longest to clean now is laundry for a family of 4 lol. I feel less stress and still want to declutter.
This is such a helpful thought
I kinda had the same but when I found out about swedisch death cleaning (do you want to leave others with the challenge to work through your stuff when you are gone). It really hit me when I lost both my grandparents 😅
My mom usually says german sayings: "your last shirt doesn't have pockets" also meaning you can't take anything with you and that she'd like to give "with warm hands" she wants to gift and not to have us inherit her belongings and money.😇
I just found your series and WOW did I ever need to see this, hear this and watch this. I am overwhelmed with 23 years of stuff that somehow just came into the house and never left. I've been going slow, one room at a time or one bag or one corner! I'll be breast cancer free 1 year in December and I'm finally getting my motivation back. I'm an all or nothing type of person so not finishing an entire room makes me give up. Watching you I now see the progress even it's just a drawer at a time. Thank you for this, keep them coming!
Oh I loved reading this comment so much!! This is exactly why I love making these videos!! I’m so happy to hear that you are coming up on a year breast cancer free 👏What a battle you must have gone through! Sending so many hugs your way 🫂
I appreciate you being here!! 💕💕💕
Good for you! I did alot of decluttering myself and I gave alot of stuff away to A thrift store nearby my house. Marie Kondo is so amazing, I read her Book and 😮I loved watching her show on Netflix, and quite often it's psychological but she helps them heal. Also when you declutter maybe you can do a Garage Sale. Also sometimes you buy the same thing more than once (I am guilty of) but less is more. My biggest weakness is Amazon and Dollar Type Stores but I control myself. Good for you, you will feel such a burden lifted from your shoulders.
This is a true decluttering series Katrina , great job keep them coming.
Thankyou so much!! I appreciate you 💕💕
Parabéns 👏👏👏👏
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Came across you by accident but loved what you did in your video that it got me out of bed at 7am and I decluttered two drawers and put things were they should be, reorganised them and binned ten used make up items. Reorganised all my hair items and all in the last 15 minutes of your video. Thank you x
This comment makes me so happy!! Im
so glad you found motivation from my video!! Well done on getting it done!! ✅ 👏 💕
i really love watching decluttering videos and find it so relaxing watching as space becomes clearer and seeing how much stuff is donated and thrown out, so i feel absolutely ecstatic to have found your channel!! you are inspiring!! you get rid of so much stuff, unlike many you never make excuses to yourself to keep things you don't need, you just concistently do a phenomenal job. also you are clearly a lovely person and a joy to listen to!! i am so excited to watch part two 😁
This is the sweetest comment!! Thank-you so much for taking time to write this, it’s really made my day today!! 🙌 Thank-you for being so kind, I hope you enjoyed the rest of the series 🫶💕💕
Another method for those who find decluttering overwhelming is to declutter 1 item on Day 1, 2 on Day 2, 15 on Day 15 etc, right up to Day 30. This method adds up too.
Yes the minimalism challenge! 🙌 I think it totals up to 465 items at the end of the month. I contemplated doing this, but I just had wayyy too much to get rid of!! 🙈
It is such a great idea though! Thankyou for sharing with everyone! 💕💕
Just found your channel. Would love to see the other 20 days of your declutter challenge. I love that this was real decluttering. It is super annoying when someone states "Declutter Challenge" and declutters 2 items in 1000!!! Lol. Great job in the first 10 days. You decluttered so much and your living space looks so much better!
Thankyou so much! Im so glad you found my channel! Part 2 is up now and I decluttered sooo much more than I did in part one 🙌 I hope you enjoy it 💕💕💕
I've been so looking forward to seeing this video, and you definitely did not disappoint with the content. I'm so very proud of you Katrina, you're doing extremely well with everything. Your motivation and encouragement is amazing, telling people to do little by little, in my book is a big winner. I hope you're keeping well and not pushing yourself to hard. I'm eagerly awaiting part two, have a wonderful weekend, sending love 💞
You are so kind to me, I appreciate you and your comments so much!! They always make my day so much better! 🥰 I hope you have an amazing week, Thankyou for always showing up 🫶💕💕💕
Finally a real decluttering video! Way to go! You will love the less is more lifestyle, it’s so calming and less cleaning.
Thankyou so much!! It truly has made such a HUGE difference! 💕💕💕
Excellent! I have done a 30 bags in 30 days challenge twice now. I had really helped jump start me into decluttering more. 👍💜
I love that for you and to do it twice is such an awsome acheivement! 👏 well done!! 💕💕💕
Hey from Bosnia🙋🏻♀️
I'm seeing your video for the first time. I'm mom of 2 toddlers and two teens (2 girls & 2 boys)
You did an amazing job! It is so inspireing! I'm aming to minimalism, so it is very helpful to see you get rid of so many things!
I'm sending you support and encouragement to continue your journey ❤
Thankyou so much!! Best of luck on your minimalism journey! I appreciate you 💕💕💕
I'm 45 and single and will stay that way. Swedish death cleaning makes sense for me. I don't want someone else have to deal with my junk. I started a few days ago.
Such a good mindset to have! Best of luck with your decluttering journey! 💕💕💕
I think getting rid of gifts was one of the hardest things I had to get over. My parents divorced when I was 5, and my stepmother gave me and my sister their wedding albums when my father passed away. I held on to it for awhile, but realized it held such negative energy that I didn’t want it in my house. My children never met my Mom, so they wouldn’t want it. I never told my sister I got rid of it though, because she is a hoarder and would have stuck it somewhere in her house. I’ve been slowly going through all my things and just keeping what I truly love.
Aww that does sound hard 🫂 I feel the same about my mums wedding dress, my parents divorced and I feel like it holds negative energy but at the same time it’s just something I can’t let go of yet 🙈 I can imagine the decision to let the wedding album go wouldn’t have been easy, but I also think you made the right decision 💕💕💕
@@KatrinaMarieCleaning yes, I have my Moms wedding dress that was handmade. It’s velvet, but it’s so yellowed from not being stored properly. I’m hoping one of her grand-daughters will use some of it in their wedding….
This is one of the best decluttering videos I've ever seen! You were ruthless!
Thankyou!!! I appreciate you 💕💕💕
First time viewer. Whew!! You really did declutter - especially doing your clothing was quite a feat I'm old enough to be doing the "Swedish Death Cleaning Method" these days. Nearly every day I put something into the donation box to go to Goodwill. Looking forward to the rest of your "3o Day Challenge".
One of my biggest challenges is Christmas decorations. Our library used to host a Decorated Christmas Tree Room during December for organizations, businesses and individuals. I did several trees just for fun and one for Veterans. After Christmas I'd buy many reduced items for the next year and DIY. So I have an attic full (although it is organized into bins). Gradually I have been donating little trees, colored balls, etc. and tossing out old faux greenery so it is better. Now I have to decide which of my personal decorations to let go of as I don't do as much Christmas decorating anymore. Nutcrackers, Gingerbread Men and Music Boxes are my sticking points right now. Guess I'm a kid at heart. Maybe my great-grandchildren will soon like to see them! Blessings to you and your family from central Georgia USA.
Thankyou so much!! I can totally understand about the Christmas decorations! They would be so hard to declutter 🙈 I love that you are keeping some for the great grandchildren to enjoy though 🥰 I appreciate you watching all the way from Georgia USA! 💕💕💕
🥰awesome video Katrina, I was so disappointed not to see the whole thirty days, will be looking forward to the rest. Love how realistic your videos are, you did a great job......be proud!!!!! 🤩
Thankyou so much! I’m so happy you will be coming back for part 2!! I appreciate you 💕💕💕
I LOVE your editing style! Great declutter!
Thankyou so much! 🫶💕💕💕
Love this! Thank you so much for sharing! 🥰
I appreciate you! 🫶💕💕
You could use the empty space in your closet for off season stuff, or maybe sowing stuff? Sowing machine, sowing supllies, clothes to mend. 27:42
Thankyou for the suggestions! You are the first person to give me one! I appreciate you 💕💕💕
You are doing a great job. Proud of you!

Thankyou so much! I appreciate you 🫶💕
This video is so motivating. Thanks😊
Thankyou! I appreciate you watching today 🫶💕💕
This is my first video of yours, so I don't know what your food storage situation is like, but your space in your wardrobe could be used for some extra food storage for nonperishable items, cans etc. I know that food has gone way up in the UK like it has in the US, and it's great to stock up a little when you catch sales so you don't always have to pay full price. Plus, it's always good to have a bit extra in case of emergencies like bad weather or illness.
When I cleaned out my bathroom drawers a while back, I purchased some little translucent plastic storage containers that were divided into little sections with secure latch closures for all my tiny hair items. They really help to keep things organized, and being see through, it makes it fast to find what you need.
I'm watching a bunch of decluttering videos for motivation , and yours is one of the best I've seen. I thought you did a great job! I'm looking forward to part 2, and I subscribed!
Thankyou so much for all these suggestions! I love them!! 🤩🤩🤩
OMG that is such a huge compliment, I appreciate you saying that 🥰 I’m so glad to hear you will be sticking around for part 2!! 💕💕💕
Beautiful! You did an amazing job! 💖
Thankyou!! 🫶💕💕
This is my type of video.. efficient to the point! And super well constructed to detail. Love it!
Awww I appreciate you!!! 💕💕💕
Thank you for being most inspirational for me to get on with my own sorting/decluttering challenge, when I had run out of speed and energy!!!

❤thank you for this video, taking the time and energy and being vulnerable to all of us in showing your clutter. I definitely made a list as to which room and what, exactly, I want to work on in that room/area. Thank you for motivating us all. 🎉Great job. You motivated me to do this, one drawer at a time.
I, too, watch Marie Kondo ❤❤❤and have seen some of the Swedish Death Cleaning and such. 😊
Thank you 🙏🏽 Blessings to you and all who read this. ❤
Awww I loved reading this comment so much!! Thankyou for being here and watching!! I appreciate you!!! 🫶💕💕💕
I need to start my 30 day challenge today!
Thank you for this!
Thank you for watching!! 💕💕💕
I was actually thinking about you the other day wondering where your video was. I’ll watch again and do the zones with you because ever since having baby number 4, 4 months ago on Monday, I just can’t be bothered. I do all the normal cook/clean/etc etc, just decluttering is taking the back seat.
Thank you for the video. I’m glad you’re splitting into parts, I watched it while feeding bubs and dealing with sick kids since Wednesday, (even got sick Friday myself), i made it the end and fell asleep as 5 minutes into someone else’s video. Haha.
Thank you again. I can’t wait for part 2. Have a good day. 💕
Aww that means so much to me! Thankyou 🫶 I totally understand, I barely even found the time to do the basic cleaning when my babies were that young! I used all my spare time (if I got any) to shower or catch up on my tv shows 😅 take it easy while you can!
Im sorry to hear that! Having sick kids while your sick is so beyond exhausting 😓 I hope you are all feeling better soon!! Means so much to me that you watched my video until the end! I really appreciate you for always showing up 💕💕💕
It could sounds strange, but you can hang a picture you like and enjoy into that empty part of you closet. This is a nice way to fill you life with beauty.
Have a nice day!
That’s such a great idea! Thanks for the unique suggestion! 🫶💕💕
Hi Katrina! I love 💗 this challenge! It’s got me motivated for sure!!! As for those empty shelves, you could put some decor there, or bedsheets, anything to make it functional:)) hope this helps! 🧽🧹🧼🧺🏡
Hey Donna! 👋 I’m so glad you found some motivation in watching my video today! 🤩
Thanks for the great ideas! 🙌 I appreciate you! 💕💕💕

You are me! I'm a mix of Marie Kondo, the SDC method, and a little of Cas who organizes people in four groups based on how they like to have their stuff (butterfly, ladybug, bee, cricket) and I loved watching this video!
I’ve never heard of that last one! Thank you for sharing, I’m going to try find out about it
Ohh I’ll have to check out that last method, I haven’t heard of that one!! 🤩 I’m so glad you enjoyed my video! Thanks for being here!! 🫶💕

Well done! 👏🏼😉 and good Music choises for your video 👍🏼🥰

Hey there, new friend here! You did such an amazing job decluttering! I completely agree about doing a little at a time so you don't get so overwhelmed. OMG, those boots were SO cute!!

Tysm for making this video!! I started doing Marie Kondo’s method (which I love) but lost track after moving house. I’ve been struggling to find motivation to start again but this really helped!!!

Great job. Looking forward to the series. I’ve donated 3 bags of clothes so far. So much more to do but one day at a time
That is awesome! 👏 good luck on the rest of your decluttering journey! Thanks so much for being here and watching 🫶💕

Great! Working on this too.
Thankyou!! Best of luck with your decluttering! 💕💕💕
Hi. I just found you today. I am overwhelmed with clothes and crap. I literally can’t see my dresser! Clothes are piled on top, sides, front…. What I usually wear are black leggings and black shirts or sometimes jeans. The past 2 years I’ve been working overnights 70 plus hours a week ands a CNA so at 4am I’m constantly buying stuff. Clothes I already have but could never find. I’m just starting and honestly just want to get rid of everything literally. I don’t want it and just want to start over! So much money I spent but I can’t and won’t look at it that way. I already spent the money and don’t have the patience to sit and sell so much stuff so I’m just going to donate it. Tags and all. I just don’t know where to start. I’ve given 4 huge bags away to people at work. They call me their personal shopper! Last week I decided to do a major cut back at work. I’m only working 2 overnights starting next week. Working all during quarantine up until now has literally drained me. I now have a bad back that flares up from lifting patients, get anxiety attacks, have zero motivation. I’ve decided to go part time like 6 months ago but was always called in to work and always went. Now I am not going to be the one covering for someone else. No more. I need my sanity back. So I stopped pretty much buying crap. It’s hard but I put my mind to that idea months ago. Now it’s just getting rid of what I have. Obviously everything stuffed in my drawers I haven’t seen in 3 years so I can just dump them in bags. Trying to find an easy way to do this. The Maria kondo or whatever way looks great on a video watching but I would never be able to do that because I would find some reason to keep more than I need. Plus I don’t think I would be able to get to sleep in my bed for months. So I’m watching different people and I’m so proud of all of you. I need to be there. And now. I have 6 of the same curling irons? Why? Because I can never find what bag I put the one I was using in!! Ugh. If I didn’t rent my house and owned it I would set it on fire! That’s how bad my depression has become!!
First of all HUGS 🫂💕
I’m so sorry you are struggling, but I’m so so proud of you for recognising where things have gone wrong and you are actively working on fixing it all! It’s not easy to do with depression so you are amazing for finding the motivation to change. I’m so proud of you for putting yourself first and cutting down your hours at work!! 👏 Your mental health is soo much more important! Good luck on your decluttering journey, I hope it changes your life for the better 🫶💕💕
One bag at a time , you can do it 👍
I'm sorry to read about your troubles, they are real. You've gone through so much. I'm also going through decluttering and I've been doing what Katrina does here. One contained small spot at a time. The feeling of the small wins is awesome. Wishing you recovery for your back and a peaceful decluttering journey. It is so satisfying and great for our mental health to have a clear space.
Proud of your courage to declutter .. great step to a better life 👏🏼🥹✨
Thank-you so much! I appreciate you! 💕💕💕
Wooooow what a MASSIVE decluttering! 😮 Greetings from south Germany! 😊
Thanks so much for watching all the way from south Germany! 🫶💕💕
YOU DID WONDERFUL JOB, I ADORE YOU, BRAVO❤
Thank-you!! 🫶💕💕💕
This is sooooo satisfying and you did an amazing job declutteer.. Keep it up.. This is my 2nd video i watched from you and i love it.. the 1st one is the part 2 of 30 day decluttering.. love that one too.. 😊
Thank-you so much!! I’m so glad you are enjoying my videos 💕💕💕
I’m just reading your comments. You have the nicest most supportive women watching your videos ❤❤❤❤
I really have gotten so lucky 🥰 Thankyou for being here and watching! 💕💕💕
Hi Katrina👋👋👋 So happy to see you today🥰 This was great, I appreciate the motivation as well as the great tips on decluttering bc it’s something I’ve been slowly doing myself👍 I live alone, I was widowed before I was married, my fiancé/soulmate passed away 2 months 2 days before our Halloween wedding day, we’d be married 31 yrs this Halloween had he lived🥹 I’ll be 62 this January and my mind set, especially since my health isn’t good has been to get rid of stuff so my 2 brothers don’t have to be overly burdened when I pass away🥹 I don’t have children so they’re all I have along with their children/family and I’d hate to burden anyone of them so when you mentioned the Swedish method you intrigued me greatly. Thankfully I’ve never been a huge collector of any one thing but I have bought stuff, due to depression, so there’s lots of clothes, Dvds, CDs etc, ridiculous amounts of stuff🤦🏻♀️ Anyhoo, I’m hoping to get it all done through this winter and get it off my shoulders and mind. TYFS, you did an amazing job and got things done👍👍👍 I appreciate you so much and I hope you have a blessed weekend/week ahead my sweet friend♥️💫✨👼🏻✨💫♥️
Hey Angela! 🫶
You truly have had such a rough go at life, I just want to hug you every time you share part of your life with me! 🫂💕 62 is still young! But I love that you are starting to declutter!! You will feel amazing once it’s done, makes such a huge difference in my mood everyday since getting rid of it all 😃 Thankyou for always showing up to watch my videos, I appreciate you so much Angela! I hope you have a great weekend 💕💕💕
❤😅Wow, great job 🥰👍🏼
Thankyou! 🫶💕
I'm currently decluttering to move house, that golden metal basket you had the jewelry in unlocked a memory I had one of those when I was a kid 😄😊 I know you uploaded this 5 months ago but nice job on the decluttering
The hanging closet organizer is the exact thing that i use to put my shoes in. I can separate by category of shoes and it DEFINITELY helps keep me from buying more than i need❤
I love this idea! Thanks for sharing!! 🫶💕💕
@@KatrinaMarieCleaning No problem 😊
Well done! What a great challenge 😊 and hello from a fellow Aussie (Melbourne based).
Hey! Thanks for being here 🫶💕💕
I clean my hair brush every day. This is really good habit to have :)
It really is! If only I could pick up that habit! 😅
@@KatrinaMarieCleaning good luck! ❤
Happy to hear an Australian accent for a change.

Omg my husband is the same
Way I go through stuff to clean an get rid of it and if I don’t get it out fast he will go through it an say my dad gave that too me but I know that’s not true I’m not that mean lol but there is always something to where he wants to keep an it sucks I need to start a clean with me cause I need to do my house asap ❤
Makes it so difficult to get rid of things when they always find an excuse to keep it 😅🙈 Best of luck when you do tackle your own house! 💕💕💕
omg the zebra bikini😭🩷 i want itt
I’m only 5 minutes in and I was panicking over the tiny bear hoping you were keeping it and you did which made me so happy cuz I was gonna be sad if u threw it away. If u ever don’t want the bear I will buy it from you cuz it’s so cute 😅 ik the point of the video is to get rid of stuff and the part of why I’m watching but I absolutely love that tiny bear in the beginning that was in your nightstand
Awww 🥰 yeh he’s staying! I got him when I was really young, he’s a “teddy in a tin” but my daughter has his little tin somewhere in her toy box 😅 thanks for watching! 💕💕
3 of us live in a 2BR apartment. I toss or recycle at least 25 items every day. There's more I'd toss but my husband loves books (he hasn't touched them in years),
and my daughter loves tchotchkes. Tina, Al's wife
That’s such a great way to keep on top of it all! Awsome job! 🙌👏 I appreciate you being here and watching! 💕💕💕
About gifts an etiquettes journalist once said:
"Giving" means "giving the right to decide what is going to be done to the object", including the decisions not to keep it. Because of this, no-one should ever be offered by someone not using their gift as they had hoped, because if they would, they would not actually truly have given the gift (and the right to decide over it) away, but is in a way keeping it.
And also, "it is the thought that counts". Meaning, if someone gives you something you don't like, you thank them happily for their kind intention. (And when they have left, you can declutter the object, having done it job of showing you their kind intention to make you happy.l
Personally, I find these ideas helpful when having to decide what to do with gifts I don't really use.

I LOVE this so much! Thankyou for sharing 🙌💕💕
Genius idea to deal with clutter 1 tiny section at a time if you are time poor - love this video ❤ Now time to tackle my space 😅
Thankyou! Good luck with your cleaning/decluttering! I appreciate you watching my video for motivation 🫶💕💕
I set a 15 min timer and I was able to get through decluttering one dresser drawer. One step at time :)
love the music! what vacuum is that? and so handy fixing the drawers! i hate cleaning hairbrushes! didnt think of using scissors!
Thankyou! It’s an LG CORD ZERO (I think it’s the A9 multi stick vaccuum) I got it on a good sale a couple of years ago! Thanks for watching! 💕💕💕
