I like the charcoal accent wall…easier to change paint, than wallpaper; curtains - number 3; love the new color …beautiful family

[@kelcv6727]

Oh poor Summer and mama, what rough timing too. My favorites are #3, #4, #5. Thanks for another inspiring video!

[@KatieB-qv5jl]

Number 4 is my pick! It looks so much more brighter!

[@wilmawagler5058]

Can’t wait to see the finished product on the living room. Your videos weren’t showing up for me so I watched 2 straight. It’s funny on a questionnaire thing recently my daughter and I both said our Bosch(mixer) is the one appliance we’d least want to part with!! So get a Bosch if you want to love working in the kitchen. Ha

[@wilmawagler5058]

Small appliance. Not a stove and such.

[@tiffanymackey2382]

Your tip about using a paper to outline a drawer or shelf space before shopping for containers is so helpful! Also, your living room is shaping up nicely, and that green dress is a beautiful color on you!

[@lifeaccordingtocynthia5657]

I vote #4 on the curtains. I think that they match and bring out the style of the house. Poor baby with stomach flu bug...hope he flew out of your home! Loved hearing the story of the "doom and gloom lady" who ran into you at the store!

[@catherineyoder3051]

Your mention of prisms reminded me of the book Pollyanna. Do you remember her amazement when Mr. Pendalton had prisms?

[@RaquelWitmer]

No, I don’t. 😃

[@carolmyer549]

Have you chosen the curtains yet? You chose some pretty options! I like your channel! Have a beautiful day!💛abby

[@yttube4319]

fantastic tip! I want to clean my cabinets now.

[@sara5750]

I have been redoing my whole basement since the middle of November. It's completely separate living quarters. Now that I'm finally done, I need to just catch up on my life that I've been ignoring. Then I have several other projects looming including organizing my garage and rehabbing some dressers.

[@cottagecreations1663]

Oh my goodness, I love your videos, you crack me up so much 😆 You're doing great on your projects!! I really like curtain option 6.

[@RaquelWitmer]

Oh thank you!

[@Sevenarrowsacademy]

I love the colors of the dresses you didn't like on you!

[@cindywaldrop4287]

Raquel, we should be bff's! I love the way you think! Thank you for this video ! Love your channel ♥️

[@RaquelWitmer]

Yes please!

[@annaklassen8876]

Curtin #5 and we are painting our basement and putting in trim and ceiling. And I'm going trough all my stuff. I am not a minimalist I am very practical so some stuff is going but plan to refurbish most of my things. Moving my children downstairs since I have 4 in 1 bedroom now. I am very excited to have our half finished basement complete.

[@landymohler3006]

We moved last Saturday so im saving stuff for a g sale this spring as i unpack. Totally agree i need to stop buying the cheap clothing i dont wear much and spend more on something I love and wear more!!! Love me a good deal but i dont always NEED it

[@lauravega6902]

Curtain choice # 1. the soft blue is beautiful.

[@stella6576]

I only started folding my toddlers clothes when he turned 3 last year!... never thought it was worth it either 😊

[@ElizabethElias321]

It's crazy, I'm doing the same thing as you do, getting rid of stuff, and I'm painting my kitchen and dining room,

[@neilloeppky609]

Amen to the spices! I thought I was the only one that DOESN'T want pretty bottles for all my spices! -Greta L

[@zaram131]

Same! Also you can’t see how old the stuff is, because there’s no expiration dates when you put it in new containers.

[@RaquelWitmer]

That’s a good point!

[@neilloeppky609]

Ah yes! Didn't even think of that! -Greta L

[@angezim9136]

I am currently painting my kitchen white 🤍 it definitely takes awhile with a baby but the end result is worth it ☺️

[@RaquelWitmer]

You got this!

[@stella6576]

Number 1 or 3 for curtains 😍😍 I think they will look great with the one blue/ gray wall u left!

[@RaquelWitmer]

I think so too!

[@AngiDas]

I was purging books and a little container that holds on my scissors, which, somehow they miraculously got back in there.

[@michellezook8295]

LOVE the living room upgrade! Such a good thing to do in the middle of winter to brighten your mood!

[@RaquelWitmer]

I totally agree! I’m so glad it happened.

[@tammiecollins9791]

Your little girl is so cute and getting so big. Thank you for the inspiration to organize my pantry.

[@RaquelWitmer]

You are so welcome!

[@jessicawagler]

You were on FIRE 👏🏼👏🏼 looks so good !

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thank you!👏🏻👏🏻

[@ebgbjo2025]

#4 for curtains as it ties in with kitchen tile and will bring flow to the house Also, I purchased amazing peel & stick wallpaper for a great price (and such nice quality, from Brewster) on Etsy.

[@RaquelWitmer]

I think so too!! I love peel and stick wallpaper. Thanks!

[@brittanyyoder1319]

I really enjoyed this video! I totally agree about the cute spice containers. If the container is too small then you still have to store the extra somewhere- therefore taking up MORE space! The living room looks wonderful!! I would choose curtain option #2.

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thanks for watching!!

[@frandemianczyk]

❤ Thanks so much for sharing this motivating video! So good to see Troy & Summer as well! Very glad she is feeling better!! Sending love & prayers 🥰🙏🏻❤️❌⭕️

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@JandKG]

Thank you for sharing 🙂 I actually love drop cloth curtains.. just a thought! ❤️

[@RaquelWitmer]

Ahhh yes! Me too!

[@amystiles3284]

Wonderful video. So sorry about the sickness. I like curtain choice number 5. Have a blessed day. 😊

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thank you! ♥️

[@momoflittleladies]

Your living room looks great!! When we get back from Florida in a couple weeks I hope to declutter too!! I have dreams of a garage sale but it’s always easier to just donate.

[@RaquelWitmer]

Good luck!! Thank you!

[@mariannamiller738]

I really like #2 curtain! The living room looks so light and airy now!

[@RaquelWitmer]

I think so too! Thank you!

[@lifeinthepiedmontVirginia]

Love the new look. Glad everyone is feeling better. Curtains loved #4 thanks for sharing blessings

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thanks for watching! I love number 4 too!

[@ednatroyer1307]

Love the cheerful face-lift you gave your living room!! You are doing a great job decluttering!! Happy New Year!!

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thank you! Happy New Year to you!

[@tarakelly210]

I loved curtains 1, 4, and 5! ♥️

[@gloriamedina6908]

Style 1

[@conniekreider6414]

Love, love that you’re ok with your sweet girl playing in her drawer. I’m a big-time cleanie🤪, but she’s enjoying creativity 💖

[@RaquelWitmer]

😊 thank you

[@Sevenarrowsacademy]

Ok second comment lol. When you said you don't like baking and don't own an electric mixer, I lost it! I hate baking and I have my mixer away not long ago. My husband bought that mixer like 14 years ago and we only used it 4 or 5 times!! I was tired of dusting it! Needless to say my husband was not to happy that I gave it away. 😦

[@Dana-mb1hd]

Love your videos girl! I definitely needed inspiration today 💖🙏

[@RaquelWitmer]

Aw yay! Glad to hear it!

[@olgatellomorrow5898]

Great job what you guys the living room looks much brighter!!$! Cute baby!🥰

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thank you! 🤗

[@estherniekoley21]

Cleaned out the chest in our bedroom n getting stuff out of the house.

[@RaquelWitmer]

You go!

[@jacobashepherd3397]

I am cleaning my gast room , it has been a catch all for stuff . There is a lot of stuff in there , great vlog ❤

[@RaquelWitmer]

You got this! Thank you!

[@sianmorgan6503]

Love your channel blessing from OZ 🙏🙏🥰❤️❤️❤️

[@RaquelWitmer]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@craigsarahgilbert7244]

Do you happen to know the name of the paint color of your daughters green dresser? I love it!

[@RaquelWitmer]

I can try to find it!

[@judyneudorf578]

Number 1 is definitely a favorite!

[@RaquelWitmer]

Ok!!! Thanks!

[@mrsj5890]

Could not agree more on wearing colors you look good in. I have the same skin tone and hair color as you, and some colors, especially dusty pink and beige, just aren’t for me. Disagree that your stove is the grossest;) Your living room looks stunning and I can’t wait to see you pull it all together! Vote for option 1 on the curtains!

[@RaquelWitmer]

Ahh thanks for your kind words! What colors do you feel look good on you? Maybe this will help me too.

[@mrsj5890]

@@RaquelWitmer I feel the best in deep colors, especially burgundy, navy, dark olive, deep emerald, and true black. Lighter colors I like are powder blue, dusty sage, and white.

[@phylisingrassia296]

Loved watching your decluttering and organizing. I’m moving soon and need some inspiration. Love the paint job in your living area. It does brighten up. I liked all the curtains. Perhaps 4 and 6 are my favs.

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@dotcastagno3629]

🦋Happy 2023! I am doing the same at our place Enjoy your videos

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@janiceyoder621]

I get the same feeling that you got at New Year's, stuff has got to go! Living in a house with 8 people means a lot of stuff. I keep a donation box handy for random things. Sorry y'all got sick. It's life and we deal with it.

[@abby9595]

#4 is soo pretty!!

[@RaquelWitmer]

I think so too!

[@fireflyslingshots]

Ok, I like #1 and #2 but I feel like Summer will pull the tassels off/chew them and maybe end up pulling them down as a result. So I also like #4 and #5. #4 looks a little heavier though, and #5 is a touch busy, but with the rest of your room being really simplified that might work well. NOOOOOOOO to wall paper! Everyone thinks they look good for a bit and then a few years down the road you realize that the wall paper hypnotized you into thinking that with its repeating designs and one day you accidentally bump your head and see it for what it is and you realize how it had deceived you all those years! Then by the time you go to take it off it decided to turn its "easy remove" adhesive into cement and then it mocks you until you paint over it or just demo the whole wall. (I may be a touch dramatic and i am coming to terms with that 😄. And your comment on your coffee of being "full of sugar and poison like I like it." 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Curtain #2

[@flowerpower8992]

Hi Raquel I hear you , watching this video , what with Christmas and then a birthday two weeks later I want to reorganise majorly in my place , thanks for sharing this video , hope you had a joyous Christmas and new year missed you posting 😊

[@RaquelWitmer]

Thank you so much for watching! We had a lovely Christmas holiday!

[@amandawadel3365]

Yay! Another video from you😊I look forward to each one ! It was so fun meeting you at the wedding last weekend! Just another stranger to you I guess😅 but to me it felt like I met an old friend or something. Would've been fun to talk more but I could see you were plenty busy already😉

[@RaquelWitmer]

Aw thanks so much for saying hi! It’s so fun to meet people. I wish we had more time to chat! Take care.

[@amandawadel3365]

@@RaquelWitmer 😊 thanks! You take care as well!

[@jenniferbarkman2439]

I ate my breakfast and then folded my laundry while watching this. But also a small hack for the closet if you’re waiting to bite the bullet on all matching hangers…using the mismatched hangers you have, hang items on coordinating color hangers and then organize them in “rainbow” order within different categories…dresses, tops, sweaters, etc. Then when you put things away you can tell exactly which hanger it goes on. Your closet will stay more organized and it’s pleasing to the eye without spending anything.

[@RaquelWitmer]

Great tip!

[@kararhodes6682]

what do you use to clean your oven door?

[@RaquelWitmer]

I used dawn dish soap and baking soda and I think some vinegar too.

[@kathleencasella4703]

#1.

[@malisemary1]

I like 4 for your curtains.

[@ceferinocanibano6284]

1 or 3.
