Being a cancer patient it’s making it very hard for me to keep up on things. When I get out of the hospital this time we are starting this. We live in a very small apartment so it is needed.

[@markanddebbiesullivan7764]

Good luck.on your journey Tisha , I'll be praying for you❤

I finished cancer treatment 8 weeks ago. There are still days that I am so tired. Don’t push yourself. I’m praying for you.

[@budgetingcouponinganddebt8079]

Decluttering is one of my favorite things to do. I recently helped a friend declutter her whole kitchen. Her counters were covered in stuff. She sends me pictures of her beautiful clean kitchen on occasion. I’d say another benefit is less anxiety. I had more anxiety not being able to find things because I had too much stuff. The Minimal Mom on KZbin helped so much when she said that everything in your home is inventory in your brain- you have to store it, maintain it, clean it.

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Oh I love hearing that about you helping your friend! And so true!! Anxiety is absolutely something that happens with excess clutter!

[@jasminetreesageorge5620]

The satisfaction at the end of a long declutter...I always had goodnight sleep whenever I decluttered and arranged my space

[@deborahodonnell5420]

I totally agree with decluttering and do it all the time. I don’t agree with the throw away society though. If you love to sew and it is just not the season of life right now it’s okay to keep that. When you are ready again it will feel like you reconnected with a dear friend. In the 45 years I have owned my sewing machine I have gone through this many times and it always feels good to go back it. Don’t be in too much of a hurry to get rid of everything. If it truly something that “sparks you joy” then keep it ❤

[@annw1395]

Exactly!

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Very good point! Thanks for sharing!

[@ShannMarie424]

That was definitely Mr. Ollie 🖤 I really need to declutter my clothes but I'm sentimental with clothes more than any other material things... so it's tough.

I love decluttering, and its such an eye opener about what I have. Its so easy to shut the cabinet and forget whats in there. Out of sight, out of mind.

[@paulakelley4845]

Immediately after watching your video, I decluttered several never used items in my kitchen. Thank you for the motivation. motivation

[@cack121]

I think it is Felix. I wish I had the availability to declutter my entire kitchen at once. Not only is it huge (we have more cabinets than 2 families need) but I lose focus and cant string that amount of time together. I recently started working in there, however and I do one cabinet or drawer at a time. I take everything out, clean it, laying in new liners and only putting back what I know I want. So far, so good You do really well at decluttering, thats for sure. Keep it up

[@mialove-ec7fi]

Awesome thanks 🙏🏾

[@cathleenweaver6483]

I'm here in Prescott taking care of my sister. She came thru surgery perfectly and shud be up and around in a few weeks. It's been mid to high 70s which is great for this Southern California girl hahaha. But going to get low 60s for the high starting Wednesday brrrr... So watching your videos always gives me a calming break which is needed right now 💜💙💚💛🧡

[@HantieErskine]

love how you just declutter, I struggle with letting go of stuff, but feel more inspirited to just start decluttering

[@dottiedenning8619]

Great job, Amanda!👍👏

[@yolandalara2794]

Yes keep the juicer and use it 🙂

[@kathleenquinn4654]

I've been using one trick I learned from you. I declutter and put things I haven't used in a while in a box and put it in my garage for 6 mos. If I don't go looking for it, I donate it at the end of the 6 mos. It has really been great and I've donated so much stuff. Thanks for the energy to tackle my kitchen today. Still some to go through but at least I've started. I also think Ollie was the kitty in the closet.

[@ThisCrazyLife]

Yesss! That actually makes a huge difference & actually really easy to do! (As long as you don’t open that box up to see what you’re donating and have second thoughts lol

[@michelleblanton6115]

[@busenburg79]

I love your kitchen! I’ve gone through my kitchen so many times trying to declutter and come up with the best layout for functionality. We have a very small kitchen so it’s difficult to store things. I need to declutter the office. Right now it’s a drop zone for everything and anything. I’m currently in the planning stages of a makeover for that space to make it a dual function space for my husband and I. He needs a space for working on the computer and I need a space to do my hair and makeup. Office/Glam Room combo, definitely not typical but works for us.

[@lizelleliebenberg2035]

I really dont like to declutter, but I love the fact that you can donate and help other people in that way. And your house feels so light afterwards.

[@cathystuart7465]

I think felix was in the cupboard.. really inspired to declutter today thanks to u and your ideas

[@byebyebingeing]

I find going by sections in my kitchen helps it not feel as overwhelming. If my kiddos need something or I have an interruption, I can stop without leaving a huge mess everywhere and pick up where I left off. I love Dana White's advice.

[@NoNameYouTubeViewer]

💡 Cabinet Next to Dishwasher: What if you drilled holes and add a cabinet shelf to use more vertical space 😊 OR add a pullout drawer like the one for your cleaning rags

[@linp1268]

Oh my goodness. I need as much inspiration as I can get. I need to declutter!!! When I have done it previously, it makes a big difference as to how I feel mentally and physically. Thank you for your good example!!

love how you've decided to deculutter your kitchen....It's never easy.....the other sense tells you to keep it, but idealy you do not need it.That was a big step....For me am afraid to declutter my closet but seeing this.

Watching your video I just realized, I've been doing this all wrong. I need to separate my decluttering from organizing. Omg! This has been my issue. I get all into the organizing. It takes so long that I never finish. Game changer! Thank you.😊

[@ditzy6014]

Another amazing video Amanda! I need to take the old shelf liners out of my drawers & redo them. I think it was Ollie. 🐈‍⬛

[@vickygrigoriadou7983]

Amanda hi!!! It is so satisfying to declutter but unfortunately here in Greece we don’t have yard sales or shops where we can donate …. Most of the times only a friend or a neighbor may need something. I have many things that now I know I will not use them but no one to give them… I admire you for your strength and courage to keep your house clean and thank you for your tips and your smile which is always there for us❣

[@susanatwell8274]

Wow - I'm adding more peace by taking extra away - really hits home !!! I am totally envious of your large drawers you have - would not even be possible in my home and it makes decluttering/cleaning out makes it very difficult because even with "necessary" things . . . .just no space . . trying to be creative but I DO enjoy seeing your wonderful spacious kitchen.

[@ThisCrazyLife]

I love getting creative with small spaces! I totally want to do a small space organize and share it sometime!

In the cabinet with your pan lids, I started using a wire rack that’s for dishes . The slots allow them to stand upright and I put my lids in each little slot. That way they stand up and It’s easy to find the one I need.

Amanda, I love these decluttering series. Your first episode gave me such motivation I talked with my husband about some of the things we’ve been holding onto. My grandmother gave me some things and now hearing what you said about your sewing items not using them makes you sad. Thats more motivation to fill my boxes I have. I have 4 boxes so far ready for donations. I have so many of my grandmother’s cookbooks I never use them. My mom has a lot still. I decided to keep just a few and I’m donating all the rest. My kids will more likely not use cookbooks my husband said. So Amanda I want to thank you so much. You are truly amazing. Your videos are so motivating and calming to watch. 🤍

After the holidays and recover from my surgery yesterday then I will start decluttering for the spring garage sale around here and what doesn't sell will be donated. I'm over all this stuff for 2 people we don't need all this. I did declutter the attic a few months ago and only have 1 tote with halloween and a box that didn't fit into totes cause they are to big. But I love how the house can breath and we plan to move in the next year or so and I'm not taking it all this me

[@amandaplayton1440]

I really need to declutter my garage, as i did declutter before i moved from my previous property that was 3 times the size but totally underestimated the actual size of this property. There is just so many things of sentimental value and that makes it so difficult. I will how try to declutter in the new year. Thanks for always motivating me.

I myself feel like it's reasonable to have 2 weeks worth of clothing so 14 pants and 14 shirts. And the reason I say that is because if your washer goes down or your dryer goes down, at least you have plenty of backup. That's just what I think.

I’m going to guess it was Ollie taking a tour of your cabinet! 😁Your comment of “I’m adding more peace by taking extra away” really got me. I definitely need to keep repeating that as I go through my entire house! This past weekend I was working on my kitchen counters & I was able to get rid of some things because I actually admitted to myself that I was never going to use them & it felt so good to let it go. I even took some items down to storage instead of just leaving them sitting out like I had been doing. I’m so ready to get back to decluttering my house. Hopefully I can get a bunch more done this coming weekend! I think it’s great your letting the boys work the garage sale & allowing them to keep the funds - what a great learning tool for them!! P.S. it was so sweet to see Emma, Ollie, Felix, & Benji all together!’
