CLUTTER MAINTENANCE MONDAY #2 _ Reset & Declutter _ LINEN CLOSET

I'm in transition!
I've been decluttering for a couple of years now, and I still have a lot more decluttering to do, but some areas of my home are in maintenance mode. It's time for me to start focusing some of my attention on intentionally maintaining the areas I have decluttered. It's the next step.
So I started CLUTTER MAINTENANCE MONDAY. I want these videos to inspire you and motivate you to maintain the areas of your home that you've worked so hard to declutter. I also want to keep these videos quick for me to create, so I'm not going to do a poem for them.
Just like building our decluttering muscles, we need to build our maintenance muscles. If you're ready, I hope you will join me as we continue with our journey toward manageable-ism.

Hi! Thanks for watching! 🤗💕 What are you working on today?

[@carrie3206]

I reorganized my cupboards below my bathroom sink recently. It’s usually organized, but it needed a refresh, lol Feels good to get it done. 😊

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

@@carrie3206 I need to do that too 🤗💕

[@judenebaer9997]

I think it looked good before, now it's great 😊❤

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

Thanks, Judene! 🤗💕 Just doing some maintenance so it won't get out of control. 😊

Hey Melinda! You got it all spiffed up again. I like maintenance decluttering. It’s very satisfying. I’ve been making myself question everything in the space just to make sure I’m not overlooking something that needs to go. I realized I was blind to some items that have been there so long. ▫️Today - I was doing some cleaning. Dusted & polished furniture, vacuumed, steam mopped the bathroom tile. I need to clean the grout. Changed the HVAC filter. Vacuumed the air return grill and the filters in our Air Purifiers. A few tasks every day.

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

Amazing! You got a lot done! 🤗💕

[@patpalmer1337]

You have a nice linen closet...I thought it looked pretty good before you decluttered it!

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

Thanks! 🤗💕 It just needs a little extra maintenance from time to time.

That pink comb/clip!! I used to have a bunch in different colors. Those were the days. Great job with this closet. Fun to watch.

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

That's so cool! 🤗💕

[@juliemix3373]

Really nice maintenance job on your linen closet. It looks so fine. I've been taking care of plastic food containers. The things that fruits and bakery items come in. They take up so much room in the garbage can that I find breaking them down to be a good thing. Thanks for the upload. Cheers

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

That's a great idea! 🤗💕

Wednesday: Made myself do my chores and phone calls, messages. dropping off some clothing items at the Good Will on the way to the gym. Thankful for an easy dinner tonight. TY for keeping me company ❤

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

I wish I could come there and keep you company in person. Thank you so much for being here and showing up and being you. I love you, sweet friend. 🤗💕

[@robertakeogh8650]

I enjoyed your clutter maintenance. Very inspiring.❤

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

Thanks, Roberta! 🤗💕

[@dianasimplifies]

Your linen closet was so organized bf you even started! I'm so impressed lol 😆

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

Thanks! 🤗💕

This was such a great video! The spill was a good demonstration of why this maintenance is important. I've caught under the sink leaks early on that way. Your pick a number to declutter challenge back in January of 2023 prompted me to do my own use it up challenge of various cleaners and personal products so they could be decluttered without being wasted. Much like the face cream that you're using to moisturize your feet now, there was one that I didn't like using on my face that I now use as hand cream and I just finished a perfumed body wash that I was using for toilet soap and a shampoo that I was using as body wash. I understand the struggle to find a shampoo that works for you!

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

Thanks, Jenny 🤗💕 I wish they wouldn't change the formula. It's so hard to find products that work well.

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

I've been trying to use up my products too. Slowly, but surely, we'll get there. Lol

[@dianasimplifies]

Terrible journey is right. I can relate since my fav shampoo now makes me itch 😑

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

Ugh

[@MidwestMomma17]

Hello!!! Clutter maintenance is great!!! I used that pink suave bottles and I hated it. 😂

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

Yeah, it's supposed to give you volume, but it seems to be making mine flat. 😂😂😂

[@MidwestMomma17]

@@MelindaPlainandSimple It gave me bad buildup :(

[@MelindaPlainandSimple]

@@MidwestMomma17 I can see that happening
