You did really well with your decluttering challenge.❤

Anyone else watching this video going, "Oh, I'll take that!" 😆I have not heard of this challenge but it sounds like a good one for me. Thanks for showing us how you did it.

@@TheresaAlberti 🤣 It was a pretty fun challenge. Thanks for watching!

Hi there! New friend here. I did this challenge a few times over the years as I have been on a decluttering and journey towards minimalism. It's an ongoing process for sure! Thanks for sharing!💖

[@BeccaDoesStuffYT]

Hi new friend! Welcome! Yes, it is absolutely a journey. It’s not a one and done thing -more of a continuous maintenance in my experience. Thanks for watching and commenting!

This is so satisfying! I just moved into a new apartment and I kind of speedran the decluttering before I left, so I’ll just get the vicarious satisfaction from watching other people organize their things 😂 I kind of have the opposite problem right now, my new apartment has no decorations 😔

[@BeccaDoesStuffYT]

@@handuo6301 thanks for watching and commenting! I’m glad it was satisfying 😆 Your apartment may not have decorations right now, but that gives you the chance to start fresh and slowly curate your new home to suit your style. Like a blank canvas full of potential. 😍

Great video! I am interested in knowing what you did with some of the items, such as holey towel/sheets, paint and makeup/producta that were still good etc? Did you donate/reuse? If not, next time you should consider some reuse ideas before throwing away 😄 Towel - cut up into cleaning rags Sheet - drop cloth for your painting or covering things in garage from dust, car seat cover for your dog Paint - marketplace! People always want paint even small amounts for home renovations! Love that you're doing your best for the environment, just some ideas 😊

@@_-.g_.j-io._uuuCharlotte Thank you for your comment and excellent suggestions! Unfortunately, some of the things had to be trashed. The towel had gotten grease on it from garage stuff. But I do have a drawer full of rags from down-cycled towels, shirts, etc. I also have a collection of cloths including the torn sheets that I was planning to pay to mail in and get recycled, but I may use them for pillow stuffing, since we already have loads of old ones we use for things like garden cover, paint drop cloth, car seat cover, and so on. I’m on the fence though because like I said, my eco-guilt is what has caused me to hang on to loads of things like ripped fabrics, empty plastic containers that could be used for (fill in the blank), etc., and I’m trying to reduce the amount of clutter in my home. It’s a delicate balance that I’m still trying to navigate. So I may still mail the cloths to get recycled even though I’d have to pay $ to do so. The paint is not useable. It’s all dried out, but I am scheduling a hazardous waste removal, since we definitely don’t want it in the landfill. But I have donated paints when they are still usable. Anything that’s donatable or sellable, we donate or put up for sale…sometimes the sale stuff ends up getting donated just to get it out of the house because I get impatient. Lol We do our best to recycle, compost, donate, repurpose or dispose of properly and safely when we can. But I’ll be honest, some of the stuff I decluttered in this video was just trash and had to be landfilled, sadly. I’m doing my best to be a conscious consumer so that I’m not creating the demand for resources to be extracted from the earth only to end up in the landfill shortly after. That might not be sustainable for my decluttering content 😁 but it’s more sustainable for the planet. I love comments that have eco-friendly suggestions for the community, so thanks again!

I did this game in 2016 with some online friends. It's a fun way to declutter. Anne, Australia 🦘

[@BeccaDoesStuffYT]

@@purposeinmind Hello, Anne from Australia! I hope someday I can go visit that beautiful country of yours. Challenges are so fun! How did you do it? Did you compare your decluttering daily with each other, or wait until the end? If I ever do this challenge again maybe I should invite friends to play with me.
