What can YOU declutter today that you no longer need, use or love? Do the kids have games they no longer play with? Books that you will never read again, office supplies that you will never use up in a million years?! I am shaking my pom poms for you - rah, rah, rah! 😍
I’m on a mission right alongside you Diane! Got rid of about 30 pairs of rollerskates from my attic (don’t ask!) a black bag of actual rubbish from the attic, two old wool blankets and a bag of ladies and childrens clothes gone to charity. I’m decluttering with an eye to converting our attic, dealing with stuff I’ve kept since childhood. It feels great!
Niamh in Dublin ❤
You are simply the best Diane 😘
Love the green jumper, you look amazing! Before you give away the Gino D’Campo recipe book I can highly recommend the pavlova recipe, I make it a lot and it’s so easy! (Btw I had to reply to your comment as I don’t seem to be able to add a new comment of my own - don’t know if it’s something on my account or if anyone else is having this problem too🤔?)
@@noconnell874 Woo hoo, go you, Niamh!
You make decluttering a manageable daily task, not overwhelming. Thank you ❤
Yay! And thanks!
While listening to you, I found two more eyeshadows to discard in trash. I’m keeping track and have decluttered 48 items since July 1, not counting the email subscriptions I’ve ended. A thousand thank-yous for the gentle inspiration to keep at it. I know I’m close to getting to a level that’s easier to keep up with and need to keep the pace going.
Oh wow! Rah, rah, rah for you!
@@DianeinDenmark thanks for the encouragement!
Well done you xx
That's awesome! I'm keeping track too, I find it helps me to stay motivated and to see all the progress I've made.
Decluttered all our extra beverage and food coolers keeping just a large and small one. Decluttered books from the guest bedrooms. And cleaned the closets! Found some Christmas items in there (Santa must have put them there, lol!). You are keeping us motivated Diane! Keep these videos coming. We love you! (And so do our decluttered houses).
Well done, Mama - we are doing this TOGETHER!
I saw that you posted a new video and was reminded of a recent personal goal to do 10 minutes of decluttering before I could sit down and enjoy your content. I decluttered for 20 minutes. Now, I can truly enjoy your message. Thank you for always delivering positive & encouraging content.
Love that, Barbara!
That’s a great way to keep myself honest. May try this too!
Oh the Blondie shirt and the elephant child's toy. You are giving me 💪 strength. Things I've had for ages and that instantly take me back to a warm moment in my past, are by far the hardest for me to deal with. I have to keep reminding myself it's for a greater good. Just when I don't feel like I'm making any progress I realize I've got empty storage containers that were once full. Always a good sign. Happy Monday everyone!
You could take a photo of the things that bring back memories and keep a folder on your phone of those items. The photo will prompt the same feeling. I had to do this with a dresser mirror my dad made me
You are making great progress, it gets easier with time! 👋😃
Continuing to declutter in my master bedroom and I am keeping up with the basics daily---like magic! That last pile of laundry to put away always seemed to be too much to tackle at the end of the day. Of course it takes less than five minutes, so I am getting it done and happier every morning. Thank you always, Diane!
It's so much easier to only have a self expectation to find one item to declutter! Genius lol ❤
I just donated 5 medium size boxes of things today. It feels so good to have more clutter gone. It is a work in progress, but it is progress! Thanks for your energy and inspiration!
I'm at home recovering from a hysterotomy - 5 days out now and feeling better. I'll be ready to start light-duty housework tomorrow and you've inspired me to start with some decluttering! Thanks for the positive and happy posts.
Look after yourself! 👏😃
All the best to you. I had that last year and it’s amazing how the body heals! Best wishes!!
After downsizing five years ago, I am still decluttering on a regular basis. It's crazy, but things seem to reproduce on their own. Love your channel!
I had a feeling that yellow and white striped dress wouldn't make the cut! You're a decluttering diva! 👑
Love the way you declutter, it’s easier for me to process and not become overwhelmed 💕💕
I love starting my week with you each Monday! And, as always, you’ve given me a fresh new idea about something I can declutter!
I'm so glad, Penelope!
Love seeing how beautiful your simplified home is! Love the green sweater and the navy button pants are fabulous.
Thank you for your inspiring videos! Lately I've been experiencing some health issues and have been enjoying watching your videos. This morning as I was watching your videos I cleaned out my linen closet and started cleaning out my book closet as well. I love your T1 S4 energy!
I have a different Blondie graphic tee that I love to wear. I never saw her in concert…yet, but I used to make up dance routines to her songs in my living room when I was 10 years old (1980). 😅 I love that she has stood the test of time.
Thank you for all your information! Your videos have been helping me implement the flylady system in our household of 6. Slow going, but I see improvement everyday! Thank you!❤
Decluttering to keep only what you need has been a game changer. I have been busy decluttering for about 4 years and my husband would always ask why there is still so much ‘stuff’ after all the bags that have left the house. I kept things I didn’t use at the moment or that ‘I might need’ now I have 3 sets of sheets instead of six and towels for each bathroom with a couple spare. Likewise in the kitchen, gadgets I had been given but never use and the same with clothes. Now my husband is closing up his workshop and getting rid of the tools, hand tools, electric tools and on and on will take a couple of months but he is hard at it and becoming mire ruthless - I could learn a lesson here.
I have always had a system for cleaning which included PUPA, putting out clean kitchen lines each night and finally mopping the kitchen floor, which makes waking up to a spotless kitchen a real joy. It’s the zones that help me the most, one week for each and I add whatever I need to the appropriate category. I am trying to do the same for the garden which is big and due to unforeseen circumstances has become a little jungle of weeds in some places. I do what I can and sometimes I overdo it but your enthusiasm spurs me on especially when I am having a bad day.
Thanks so much. I wrote about the sheets in the drawers under the bed, still working!
Ah, the Blondie shirt brought back some memories ♥ You decluttered so much! Last week I went through my recipes and got rid of a bunch that I never use anymore. I prefer using paper recipes and it really freed up a lot of room in my folder. I also have 2 decorative boxes, 1 initial pin, and a set of three small figurines for a fairy garden that I never used. Overall it isn't much but it feels good to have it set aside to take to the charity shop. Have a wonderful week
Great work, Sharon!
Watching this while decluttering at work 🎉
I love your approach with having clothes on probation and how freely you pass lovely items on. You inspire me!
Thank you, Lauren!
Thanks for the inspo as always Diane! 😊 I decluttered a very large bag of clothes from my eldest son’s room, he’s had a growth spurt so that’s all gone to the charity shop today today and the room feels lighter already ❤ Katie from Liverpool 🇬🇧 xx
Well done to you both, Katie!
Thanks Diane, I'm getting started, thanks to you. I realise I really don't need to hang on to things for "just in case" scenarios that never seem to happen! "
Love your green jumper Diane - and it looks great with the navy! As always, amazed by how much you declutter every week!
💖💙💚💟😊
Hey, Diane! Thanks for being my ray of sunshine!!! Rah rah rah!!!
Aww, you are so sweet, almostahippie - thank you!
Headed to the basement to find things to go, and have been taking it slowly, but I’m always amazed and pleased at just how much difference a only few minutes several days each week can make. You really set a do-able example, Diane ❣️
Good luck, Cynthia!
Thanks Diane. I'm so grateful for all the decluttering I've done throughout recent years as we unexpectedly received our notice and will move house soon!
Wonderful, Edel! You are a decluttering trooper!
My other room this week is the downstairs bath. What surprises were hidden in the cabinet. Decluttered one. And then 2 through 13 items. Your cheerleading-rah rah rah-starts the day off with energy. Thanks 🧹🪣🦸🏼♀️
So inspiring Diane 🎉 Today I decluttered a leopard blouse from DAY, 2 headbands (that give me a headache when I wear them), and two spice girls Barbie dolls in the original packaging. The spice girls dolls are going to my friend’s daughter.
Yay, go you, dear friend! 🤩💖
Still loving and appreciating your motivational videos. Thank you Diane. You are fab! 💚💚🏡🏡🙏🙏
You are so welcome!
Thank you for all your inspiration Diane! Since watching you on CZcams I've decluttered many items, dipped my toe in DYT, and even started fasting. It's only been 4 days but I'm amazed at how great I feel.
We declutered a lamp, very used kids clothes, old school supply's and workbooks, birthday cards, drawings and chipped plates.
Well done!
Thank you so much for your encouragement. My daughter and I are going to have a week of decluttering at her place this week. She has a new baby and two other children children. We have been loving the fly lady routines.
Wonderful! Make sure to take breaks and have lots of fun!
Thanks for the motivation ! Love the ‘just one a day’ - it really helps 😊
Jusr returned from holidays. The vlog is good reminder to get back on task of
de cluttering.
I love the idea of refill bottles in the shower. Thank you for sharing that.
You are so welcome!
I’m in the process of decluttering my accumulation of coffee mugs! Oh, so many!
Your posts always keep me on track by the reminders. I have decluttered a skirt that looks great, but it is a pencil skirt that now needs suspenders just to keep it up on my hips, and I like high-waist items, including pants, shorts, and skirts.
Love these, Diane! Weekly inspiration! And that green is amazing on you ❤
Glad you like them, Stacey!
Thanks, Diane. It just goes to show that no matter how often we declutter, there’s always more! 😍
Love your green sweater!
That green looks beautiful on you!!
I’m amazed at how much you still find to declutter😀
Kitchen tea towels moved 3 from the kitchen to rag basket😅. Started Aug 1st back to decluttering and the running total thus far is 57 items🎉 kitchenware, clothes, shoes, hangers, glassware, jewelry, finished reading a book(s) and out they go to. Took a break during the hot weather in June & July and I think it helped.
Diana, so pleased you're still doing these video's,life has got in the way for the
Last 2yrs, but now hopefully now starting to declutter. Made a start on the Garden shed,we are going to rack it out so we can use plastic boxes for storage. Had promised to start on the Garage this week ,however new problems arisen. But onwards to start the bathroom now ,whist it rains again. Thank you your energy is inspiring,maybe abit down but not out...yet lol
I will be cheering you on, Angela!
I’m always about a week behind you but I’m so grateful for your inspirational videos! I’m decluttering photos this week. I have SO many from when my kids were young. They will want some but I took way too many / and had doubles and sometimes tripled printed! 😳
Photos are a challenge but you are winning, yay!
Thank you for reminding me to declutter as I go along.
🎉 1 item down, but like snacking in chips I could not stop at just one!
New to the channel. Happy to have discovered you🙂
Welcome here, Katrina! 👏😃
Bonjour Diane. Vous avez de nouveau réussi à m’inciter à faire du désencombrement. Ma dernière trouvaille : éliminer les épingles à linge que je ne choisis jamais quand je fais sécher nos vêtements à l’extérieur. Clutter hides everywhere … Incroyable! Mille mercis aussi pour les suggestions de lecture. Je suis à lire « The Thursday Murder Club, de Richard Osman. Un pur délice!
What an inspiring & uplifting video! Love your green jumper.
Thanks for the cheery inspiration. I’m clearing out my mom’s house to sell it and am inspired to work on my own “stuff” doing a little each day is so cathartic❤️
Wonderful!
Thank you Diane
Decluttered some old spices last week. You gave me the idea of looking into our keys....found 7 metal keys that can be recycle!
Great haul! 🔑🔑🔑
Love your bright green jumper.
I’ve decluttered three indoor plant pots (no longer sparked joy), two sad looking plants, a shallow tray basket, a wooden brick mould (vintage storage box), a hair brush that pulled my hair too much and a mascara that was drying out. I don’t actually have much stuff, so was surprised by my anti-haul!
How did you declutter plants? Serious question. I have too many!
@@thatswhatisaid8908 I have over 150 houseplants! The two I decluttered were not thriving, always need pruning, would look lacklustre and generally unhealthy even with proper care over time. Instead of perpetually trying to keep them going I decided to throw them out!
Sounds great, Sarah!
My friends often swap plants or give them away to others! 👋😃🪴🪴
Feeling motivated 🥳 🏃♀️ thank you Diane
That green looks fantastic on you.
You’re the best! I enjoy your channel very much.
Managed to declutter the items in an old 'tin' chest which used to belong to my grandmother, and am thinking that IT can go too - maybe to an antique dealer!! I had taken stuff along to the charity shop nearby last week, but they were "full to bursting" and couldn't take in any more things then, but I went back yesterday and got rid of a boot-load of items including a black bin bag of RAGS [ which they will take as long as the bag is MARKED as rags - saves them sorting through, AND they get money for rags too!} I have been slowly decluttering since January and have so far donated about 34 bin bags full of things, recycled a load of electrical/computer stuff, and I haven't counted the rubbish I have cleared, However I have a three storey Victorian villa to work through, and I used to keep 'stuff' just in case' as well as having a load of my parents things, my late husbands things and my late brothers things as well - I know this will take a while to do - but I'm thinking it is like eating an elephant = one bite at a time!!😁 Thanks for your inspiration Diane.
I just love your videos and positivity! I enjoy watching your videos as I declutter and clean my house.
Thank you so much, Jill!
I’ve started using refillable bottles for my shower gel and shampoo and the bathroom feels much more tidy and easy to keep clean. . I’m gradually reorganising my clothes and as many are from one particular brand I can send them off to a thing called Reskinned and I get a discount code if I buy new things from them. I have already learned to only send one or two pieces so my voucher is smaller and I don’t need to spend so much to redeem it (and it’s valid for a year). They check, clean, repackage them and send them back to the original company who re-sell them as preloved. I sent two sleeveless dresses that I’ve had three years and only worn twice each and it feels good to let them go. I hardly ever wear a dress or skirts, mostly live in jeans! Thank you for inspiring me and I look forward to your videos
That's wonderful, Lynne!
Thanks Diane 🎉🎉🎉
A friend sent me your channel to check out today. Happy I stopped by! I need small and reasonable steps to manage daily tidying. Thank you!
Dear Diane, it is phenomenal how your eye colour changes by wearing that spring green pullover. (I wouldn't say anything to someone's look, but you practice that color thing).
Aww, thank you so much, Bettina! 💚
Doesn’t it feel good to be decluttering the last bits in every room👏👏👏
☔It's an indoor day here with torrential rain and flooding, a good day for catching up on tasks including decluttering.
I have D cluttered a lot of bags of stuff out of the bathroom, and my one of the room was my bedroom closet and a Declutttering enough that I can actually hang my clothes in there now!
Thanks for always encouraging us!
Fun as always. I just started some more decluttering.. took loads to the recycle depo and filled my rubbush bin with non-recycle stuff. Now the bin has been emptied, i will carry on... I love how easy you make it seem.. I noticed I am still struggling emotionally some categories of items.
Such good ideas about everyday small items that you can declutter especially like the used candle in the guest room. I totally had a clear out things like that
I love the colour of your jumper
Love your energy & positivity!!
Thank you so much!
Hey there, as my life phase has changed using the seven day declutter challenge in the bedrooms this week! Thanks
Hi! Divested many hundreds of things last summer so not much left to donate, sell, throw away. I did contribute some old bedding and pillows to a local animal shelter the other day. Feeling righteous!
Hi Diane, I have just discovered your Chanel. And all ready feel motivated to start sorting through my cluttered house. I look forward to watching more off your videos. x Clare in France 😁
Wonderful - welcome here, Clare!
I feel inspired to start an exchange circle 😊
Over the past few years I’ve gotten into the habit of always being on the lookout for clutter. It’s part of my daily routine now. Thanks for all the encouragement!
Love that, Jennifer!
Thank you Diane 😊 so inspiring !
You always get me decluttering, Diane. For me, plastic kitchen storage containers now that I have glass ones, a load of cardboard boxes that contained a ton of my husband’s old paperwork, and I’m shredding a mountain of his stuff. 5 bins so far and a lot more to go! Plus old makeup, ancient teas from the back of the cupboard that no-one drinks, still going strong.
Go you, Pam!
You always brighten my day. Thank you
Love the green sweater
Another great motivational video....thanks Diane 😊 🏴
Glad you enjoyed it!
Just watched again.
I have a pile to go out but annoyingly it's still at the front door!!! Watching this again prompted me to get it gone tomorrow on my way out to town 😊
Wonderful!
You are always such an inspiration! Thank you, Diane! 😊
I am inspired now and will try to find 1 item in every room of the home. YAY! Thank you Diane.
Have fun!
Love you Diane! Thank you for the inspiration!
Thanks for all your content , so inspiring.
The green looks great on you❤
Great inspiration, looking forward to my "hunt" 😅
Hi Diane from Namibia 😊 Declutter a chipped plate, thank you, you got me out tha doldrums
Decluttered. the
Just returned from donating several boxes at Goodwill, including a printer-scanner that still works but has been replaced & box heater that needs a new heating element, but we no longer use it. Those items & a few others in boxes have been sitting in my dining room for months. 😳🤪 Recently had an unexpected weekend visit from our 2 grandkids, & things were in good order so that I wasn’t racing around to make way for them (14 & 11 years). Onward & upward!
Go you!
Love the poppies in your window sill.
Thank you, I made them out of crepe paper 🤩🥀🥀
Hi, Diane, lovely fresh green and impressing empty shelves…. To find ONE item is never difficult for me😉. Love, Monika❣
Love that color of green on you!
Just found you and I am inspired! Thanks!
Welcome here, Daisy!
Definitely helps to continually declutter! Always enjoy your videos!! 🙌
Yay! Thank you!
Vintage concert T’s are the best! I would love that Blondie T shirt! I’m coming to the next swap party! 😂
👋😍
Thanks for sharing 🥰. You are so spot on with " clutter" or " one man's junk is another man's treasure", lol. I am kinda new to your channel,and yes clutter is not our friend‼️ Love your channel and enthusiasm. The sweater color looks great. Are you all moving from your beautiful home?
Welcome here! No plans to move right now...probably in 5 years time! 👋😃
@@DianeinDenmark I do understand, empty nest😟❤️❤️❤️🤗. Keep up the great work🥰
As always, you keep me in the straight and narrow and my life is better for it! Ad hoc play dates are the best advantage to decluttering. My house is always pretty ready ❤
