[@cgd1125]

I'm not tired of you decluttering the same areas because that's exactly what I do every year. It's amazing how something you can't get rid of one go round is so easy to get rid of the next time. I just finished the kitchen and was surprised that I filled a laundry basket for donations. Starting the living room today. Again..thank you for doing these series.

[@mygreatchallenge]

Exactly. That is the whole point. If I was decluttering it all in one shot, one I would have no channel two I would be unrelatable, because who does that? It s so impulsive, at least to me, to go through a room and ditch it all.

[@cgd1125]

Lol. It took me 2 weeks to do the kitchen. I used to do the entire room but I like this way much more. Only one mishap. I had tea cups in the basket and my cat jumped in and broke a couple. This isn’t so overwhelming. I’m glad you make more videos. More to motivate me.

[@robinsnell7249]

I'm so glad you kept that beautiful bowl. It was so obvious you loved it.

[@sandrahackney3219]

I love watching you declutter and I never get tired of watching. I have a hard time letting things go.

[@shbkitchell5097]

“I’ll get buried with it if I have to.” LOVE IT!! YES, I’m going to use that! 😂😂😂 I so get it! Absolutely love this series & how you do it. ❤ Thank you.

[@janet9524]

I never tire of the clean and decluttering videos. It inspires me.

[@nancylanderson8012]

Sometimes I enjoy watching you declutter when it's not easy. I go through that, too, and can see that we can still make progress.

[@paulasownpace8684]

You can mount your tv on a wall instead of an entertainment unit. Plus nowadays they have frame tv's that could look like a painting :) Even KZbin has still pictures to put on your tv screen

[@virginiascheidel4362]

Every little bit is a step ahead

[@johnmelissaziech6207]

Finding a use for the bowl that gives you joy is a good solution. I feel the same way about family belongings as you do. I have done some decluttering of them by passing some things on to my daughters and grandaughters. I love being surrounded by the things I have that bring me joy and good memories. I do feel better when they are oranized. I do feel inspired after I watch your videos.

[@angelar5145]

FYI, I will never get tired of watching you handle and talk about your treasures. I am the same way when it comes to things that I like but make no sense to keep. Especially things that belonged to and were special to my mom. Tough ones. I thoroughly enjoyed the video on Patreon where you showed your family treasures and how they came about. Can't hardly wait for Part Deux!

[@mygreatchallenge]

Yes! Thank you! Part deux will be very difficult, some items have very sad stories attached to them.

[@teresakirkpatrick1968]

I love silver trays put felt on the little feet

[@storminight]

I love watching you declutter over and over, because I do the same. And I always let go of more. 36:40 The candle light…. I have been hanging old chandelier crystals on my Christmas tree. They are BEAUTIFUL! Just an idea. 😊

[@Joy-zp5lv]

Exactly what I was going to recommend: Use it for jewlery. It´s practical and pretty and will make you happy. Win-win-win! 😁

[@carriebelcher8644]

Just a thought- let go of the silver plate street find. You don’t use it. It is a shame to keep it when maybe someone else would use it. Just because it’s expensive, isn’t a really good reason to keep it. Plus you have to spend money to repair some. Don’t get mad, just how I think.😊

[@habeebideemashayish2750]

I think since she's selling the handles for their weight in silver, she should be able to pay for the repairs and sell them for more profit. Personally, I'd ask the jeweler if he could do a small consignment display of a few exceptional pieces. I know that I display a lot of things on silver and silver plate trays. But I agree that they need to move on. If she's keeping them for the monetary value alone, it's better to send them where they'll be loved and seen.

[@gigigigi1508]

Some of the things we keep because we like it but does mean we need to get rid of it for someone else to use it. Why? She will get rid of it when she is ready. I'm minimalist but I still got few items that I love and I want to keep

I love this series. Your decluttering inspires me. Love your channel xoxo

[@reginaeudy9249]

Don't ever think you're decluttering videos are boring. I'm a long time subscriber and love these videos and seeing all of your beautiful things. So glad you found a use for your French bowl. That's what I try to do is find a purpose for something I love and get rid of something less important like your dish in your bathroom. Love it!

[@niksand1713]

I agree with you on your Madonna collection! Beautiful

[@llmobile9356]

I like to switch things up also! My home is always evolving, otherwise I get bored. I love your Madonna collection. Thank you for sharing!

[@adrianagarza8545]

I’m so glad you kept the little bowl and figured out to use it for jewelry. I kept thinking you should keep it because you were struggling to purge it. The long silver trays are perfect for entertaining and putting either hors d’oeuvers, canapés, or mini desserts like petit fours.

[@donnawiseman9311]

You keep decluttering, but it seems like there’s some things that are “new” pieces you have brought in since last time. I love to watch your reasoning for each item. I never get tired of it!!

[@ruthvanseeters6824]

You have really beautiful curated things that you love. I love everything!

[@jl1726]

Could some of the curios and cabinets not go into other rooms? The shelves in the basement? The guest room? Your office? Your bookshelves… if you are aren’t using those items but want to keep your collections maybe they don’t all have to be in the same room? Although maybe not the kitchen where your pyrex collection is ❤

[@buddymycatbychristyolesen1993]

Your declutter thought process is always helpful. Decluttering isn’t always about getting rid of things, sometimes it’s just putting them back where they belong. I have that same make secretary desk. My grandmother bought it in 1947 and I inherited it in 1985. I refinished mine with Formby’s refinisher. I keep small family keepsakes and small treasures in it.

[@nancypeteja6560]

You did just fine Sophia! I would have a hard time with the silver too. It's nice that you have the little library to put your declutter books in....I am sure they are appreciated. Heirlooms are hard to go thru and what you like is what you like!! You make people understand how the process works....you did good! 😉❤👍

[@tonibergquist61]

Thank you for being so real! I love decluttering my stuff along with you! Love watching all your videos! You helped me figure out sewing too. I’m working on a doll outfit for my Granddaughter and she is so excited. She said, My Grammy is the best” 💞

[@mariainmaryland9829]

The reason I subscribed to your channel years ago was because of your decluttering journey. I do enjoy the way you declutter, the thought process you go through and show us. So I think I will not tire of watching you declutter your home regularly.

[@carolharner4472]

I loved the music you chose for this video! I feel your pain when agonizing over decisions. I am even worse than you!

[@MelindaLee]

No I don't get bored watching you go through your treasures, Sophia! I've watched you for years going through these lovely pieces and it always satisfies me. Sometimes people will buy items with little imperfections if they need to fill a whole set or complete a set that is a family heirloom. You never know! I have a set of clay bowls that my great grandmother had and when she died, I took them. They are plain bowls but beautiful hand painted from Korea. Stacking bowls in a set of 5. Each one off white but with rings around the brim in different colors and in the middle of the bowl, a single hand painted piece of fruit. I've had them for over 35 years and always used them, which means some broke or got chipped. Now I am down to just 1 and I don't use it. I would pay big bucks to get replacements.

[@katemc1103]

I felt that declutter agony story! I’ve been through my room a few times now and just can’t get rid of some things for the silliest reasons! But awesome job Sophia! Anything decluttered even if it’s one thing is still a win! xx

[@lornacrystal9784]

Great job as always! Love your videos, whatever the content is❤️

[@mygreatchallenge]

Thank you so much!!

[@lifeintheslowlane5602]

Love to see the dogs. Elektra is such a sweet girl you can tell shes a moms girl

[@MsArtistwannabe]

I did my photos a while back. After going through them so many times I ended up letting go of at least twenty-five percent. I surprised myself. Your home is lovely. You are a wonderful homemaker.

[@mygreatchallenge]

That's great! When I did photos I let go of anything that was landscape or bad shots.

[@carole3680]

Sometimes you can bless someone else who also discovers it in an unusual place.

[@amyhowell4000]

I'm so pleased you kept the bowl Sophia. The fact you agonised over it tells me you weren't ready. With things like that I always keep them and find a place that it will be used regularly. Why do we keep things and not use them because we save them for good??? Let's use them and have joy. Big hugs xxxx💖

[@IbelieveinAngels5660]

We too collect uranium glass and display it under a black light and I also collect carnival glass. Thanks for showing Scotts/yours.

[@mygreatchallenge]

I wanna see!!!

[@jkalb1744]

The Madonna collection is beautiful.

[@carole3680]

People with excess must know when you will be out and so they put out things they KNOW you will lovingly rehome

[@greenserene2676]

Yeah, I agree... sell the entertainment center and get another curio. I love your secretary!! I wanted to get one because I needed a desk, but no funds. I love reorganizing and decluttering. I realized I had a desk!! A 1960s school desk but was using it as a dresser for my baby boy. I decluttered in my dresser in my bedroom and was able to move his clothes there. Decluttering makes space for what matter most! I love that you love your stuff. I enjoy the chit chat and history. Oh!! I almost forgot! My grandma is having to downsize and she is letting me hold onto her beautiful iron and oak baker's rack!! It's so beautiful and reminds me of my childhood. I bet that's what your family heirlooms make you feel. I relate to you even though I am on the other side of the spectrum as a minimalist.

[@JOHANNA-qd6iz]

You could put the small bowl up for sale pointing out the tiny chip, it could be the bowl someone has been looking for to make up their collection. Put felt dots on the tray legs if you want to keep it and use it.

[@teresapatrick6818]

I agree. Move things around

[@NormalnotNormal1234]

Sophia you had me laughing 🤣 Change it up ! LOL!!

[@Myeverydaywifelife]

You know Sophia the wall unit is nice but it really doesn’t have that much storage for a big piece of furniture. I think you could get something else that has better storage. My hutch is like that. Well the top part has good storage but the bottom there is not really that much storage space in the drawers as it odd shaped. I had my linens in there but they don’t really fit in there and there no place for my placemats and runners. Anyway I took them out and put them in my linen closet. I’ll be storing small items in the drawers now. Work in progress. 💜👍

[@angelacimmino1102]

Hi Michelle! Because of your collaboration with Sophia years ago, I have been following Sophia's channel ever since. You both have been inspirations to me since my son Dan died of cancer five years ago as your videos saw me through some dark and lonely times. Thank you both!

[@Myeverydaywifelife]

@@angelacimmino1102 I’m sorry about your Dad Angela, my mom passed 3yrs ago so I understand. Staying busy helps for sure.

[@angelacimmino1102]

@@Myeverydaywifelife Sincere sympathy to you. My son Dan died, my father passed eleven months later, and then my brother. Grief is a challenging journey. but decluttering all three of their homes was also tough but necessary.

Oh goodness! oh I’m sorry I misread that about your son. My sister died of cancer 5 yrs ago that was hard too, cancer sucks! Then my aunt committed suicide in October, she was like a sister to me, we were close. Very sad. My heart goes out to you darling 😘

[@grandmafreeman6618]

Your living room is charming with all your collections. I think it is better to leave decorations and artwork where it has been placed until after a deep clean and then, carefully thought about before making changes. I usually do any real redecorating after a remodel and/or painting a room. Of course, a declutter is often necessary because things get misplaced by family members and all of us.

[@gladysanderson1351]

I have the kitchen/ dining room mostly declutter Ed. Now for deep cleaning and oh my gosh, our living room will take me some time!

I have done the first round a few years back and not ready to visit it yet. Keep those videos coming and might I add that your choice of music is perfect! I am always moving some part of my body when I hear it. 🤣 Until next time 💕

Well done! I think you are reaping the benefits from previous decluttering jobs. I am going through my house also, but I just started so I am in the kitchen and dread that as it is always more overstuffed. Thank you for these videos.

[@melindaonamission9511]

Just an idea for the silver tray with feet. Put a bit of hot glue on the bottom of the feet and then they won't scratch. It won't hurt it because it will peel right off when you're done using it.

[@luella2897]

No, I love to watch you declutter , it is a lot easier than getting up and decluttering my stuff !! LOL !!! That silver platter would be pretty hanging up, sort of like a mirror. ?

[@Connie-ts1dv]

Footed silverplate tray. Layer with decanter and glasses on top. Long skinny silverplate tray could hold pretty pens on a desk. Little lamp with crystals you can tuck on bedside table vanity table easily.

[@melissac6236]

What about putting the TV above the fireplace on a swivel mount? It comes out and turns so you could set up your living room furniture differently or even watch TV while in the dining room too. Just a thought. Also since you are amazing at building things, what about two matching built in bookcases on each side of the fireplace for all the items you want to keep from the living room cabinet? You would definitely free up some space by doing that. P.s. love watching your videos!

[@sherrygantt2158]

You did really good. I am enjoying your videos. Love the music too. So up lifting and fun. You are doing great!

[@Myeverydaywifelife]

Moving right along you are!! 👍💜

[@jessie551]

Have you thought about getting rid of the entertainment center all together, and getting a wall-mounted TV? It would be a much smaller footprint, and they even have fancy TV's now that have a built-in frame and you can choose artwork for them when they're not being used, so it would look like just another piece of art in your home. You could relocate all the books and knick-knacks that you want to keep to other areas of your home. P.s. I love that you ended up keeping the little French bowl. I was going to suggest you do something like put it on your nightstand to hold jewelry, and that's just what you ended up doing. ❤️

[@cherylferguson5290]

[@habeebideemashayish2750]

Sophia, I love this series! I keep following along with your series and haven't found much of anything yet, but I don't bring much into my house and really love decluttering. But about your street find silver and china, etc, you seem caught up in the monetary value rather than your love for the item. Personally, if I don't love AND use it, I don't want it. Somebody may have an obsession with collecting such things, and you just keeping them because you feel like you "should" like them isn't enough. And sell that stuff with small chips and whatnot with a clear disclaimer. I would pay ridiculous amounts for pieces that resemble family pieces that have disappeared over the years, chipped it not. You may be holding the piece that somebody else needs!

[@anitahoffer5957]

The small French bowl, use it as a candy dish. Or put it on top of a couple of your design books on the coffee table.

Off topic...maybe you could hire Will as an assistant. He could address and stamp your envelopes so that all you have to do is write your note. Maybe learn some of the editing trade, such as transferring from your camera to computer and get it set up so you can edit. Or learn how to set the posting times for you. Anyway, it may save you time, and Will earns some cash. Just a thought.

I’m so glad you kept the little bowl😊. It’s perfect to keep jewelry in it. Is there a market for imperfect finds on Etsy? I’m wondering if maybe people need something…like the hanging crystals from the lamp or the hurricane, if people would buy those pieces separately? Or things with a small hairline crack? I’ve never looked but it may be worth exploring.

Good job! If unsure I make sure I am using it, like your bowl idea in the bathroom. It's lovely that you have family treasures, you should write a story about your pieces and collections so the kids will know. These days you could do a photobook.

[@dcn9550]

Sophia, your house is lovely. The most important thing you could do for your living room is to remove the oak sectionals. They take a lot of space and don't have the charm of your other furnishings and decor. Just one woman's opinion - - worth about 2 cents? !?! ☺️

[@mygreatchallenge]

Well yeah I talk about it in the video that it is only here temporarily. give me some time. I need to find the right solution.

[@MichellesCraftsandMore]

I'd still try and sell that little bowl even with the chip. Just make sure you show the chip and someone may still want it to complete their collection.

[@bethstratton3391]

Sophia, you did a good job decluttering considering how much you love to collect. I agree you should get the silver Christofle repaired and cleaned and then display the little trays because they are lovely. I particularly like the little sugar bowl. It seems such a shame for them to be hidden in the bottom of the cabinet. I think the little French bowl might sell considering it is old and rare, you could try using porcelain repair putty paste to repair the chipped edge and paint with a little gold leaf paint, after all what have you got to lose trying, you could also pick up a new skill in the process.

I even have a book I've written and have been dragging my feet to figure out how to publish. This is the year i figure that out! I have too much to not share with the world. I have over 100 pieces of photographic images, it's a problem that I've been feeding for 20 plus years. I swear in a past life i was there.

it is to each his own. and the only thing i would change, is to move the picture directly behind the Madonna's is detracts from Madonna's and its hidden by Madonna's. & picture to the left is partially covered. maybe they can go by the quilt stand by stairs. I know i cant see full wall, you didnt pan up to see that part. The thing with silver, no one wants to clean it! . long sliver trays are used for appetizer's. like shrimp, sushi etc. have a blessed weekend.

I also love the dish with the quail. How about you make it a candy dish? And the bird house could possibly go outside. A friend of mine made one for me also and I have a hook on it I'm able to hang from a small shepherd's hook outside. I think it might be sprayed with shellac keep it from falling apart when it rains. I do bring it in in the fall so that it's not out there through the winter. I've had it for several years now outside.
