[@janehickenbottom9200]

I am 62 and suffer from depression, anxiety and panic attacks and I also have PTSD I recently found you and want you to know how encouraging you are to me Thank you so much for being you and putting yourself out there You have a wonderful husband as I do and as you said he rolls with my punches so to speak And has done so for 43 years Love you!!

[@lindamcdermott5475]

I am a sewist and crafter, you are right, the craft space is sacred! I’m 74 now, and have started downsizing my stash. Really hard! You are inspiring me to keep going with the purge. I was always able to keep it neat, I just had sooo much stuff! Then other people would give me their fabric scraps, at one point when I was making charity quilts and then masks, it started getting out of hand, my daughter said it looked like I was a hoarder! Right now I think I over did it, I just feel like it’s time to stop and just declutter.

[@mkweber9615]

I'm so impressed with your husband helping you out. He seems like quite the sweetie! Nice that you have his support...and shoulder rubs!

[@barbaraangier-stewart440]

I know!! How sweet was this?! What a great hubby to support her!

[@jeno264]

The Apple boxes make great storage trays!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Great idea!

[@dianeford6796]

Hi my encouraging friend. I am so glad I came across your videos. My craft room is so unorganised along with my whole house. I've suffered from depression for many years and was worse after having my two boys. I think the idea of treating yourself or buying something you really want is a fantastic idea. I look at my home and wish more than anything that I could get the motivation to declutter and tidy it. Your videos are so inspiring THANK YOU!!!!! I don't have anyone to help me as I am divorced and have a son with Asperger's syndrome still at home. I pray to God for help and to give me the motivation to start on my home. Please continue to make your videos as they are definitely planting a seed in my mind. Take care you beautiful family x

[@leeann5588]

Definitely relive the old glory daze!!

[@PinguPango]

Aww what a nice hubby you have! It’s so nice to have such a supportive spouse.

[@ChristianAnneSmith]

I love your zoo shirt concept. Very clever and creative.

[@belindaroberts3090]

Wow! Great job! I'm starting on my spring cleaning & decluttering today. That is if I can stop watching KZbin. Lol!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I know the struggle! 😂

[@lisarodgersusa]

I use my Apple boxes too and bottom for draw storage as they are nice and strong

[@libharriss996]

Apple boxes are really sturdy...I use both top and bottom for organizing

[@mccarronjen]

Hearing you talk to your Grandma makes me miss mine even more!! Cherish those chats. 💜

[@sawdust2556]

Me too! Miss my Nana!💕🙏🏼

[@herronr]

You can use your watch box as 2 desk organisers. They’re very sturdy containers 👌🏻

[@FilmAngel11]

That painters tape hack to hang pics! Mind blown lol. I watch tons of declutter videos and I found your channel this morning- you are by far my favorite declutter queen! Will binge watch all your videos to get motivated. Good memories burning CDs. Ha! Thx for sharing! Just watched your garage declutter. I REALLY needed that one!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Awe! Thanks for hanging out with me. I am glad you found my channel!

[@leeann5588]

You really work great & such magic organizing!! What a big help Stephen is to help you.🥰

[@evied.4475]

Thanks for the inspiration. My craft room is ridiculous. It’s turned into a craft/storage/pantry. It was pretty once. At least I know it’s possible to defeat the mess. You’re lucky you’re so young. God bless you and your family. ❤️

[@jillneer7305]

You & your husband are a great team!!!! Your craft room looks awesome!!!!!

[@angieineverettcust2934]

Technology boxes. They are such solid quality I keep them to be recovered and made into something else

[@poodlegirl55]

Your husband so carefully arranging your MOM letters really touched me.

[@jeridubin6931]

Would love to see your grandma's quilts she made for you. What a blessing to have her.

[@dragonflyneb8212]

Great Job and Great Husband

[@camillehines2269]

I'm from the days of making mixed cassettes from the radio 📻 ☺️ Awesome transformation!!!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I was right on the fringe of that Era. I am pretty sure we had a few of those as well.

[@jennaalce4016]

Use your old device boxes for drawer organizers!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I am so glad you mentioned that! Devices tend to come in very sturdy boxes so this is a great suggestion!

[@RockyRoadCreationsbyDiana]

Kudos to you for using one of those discombobulated machines. Lol. I took a class and have mad respect for anyone who can do it. Now to watch your video....YES... The box adds value when you go to re-sell. Your room is looking good so far. Your hubby is a keeper.

[@andreametternich6662]

I am so happy, you are laugh during every video because you are funny and clever. Your natural style doing these videos is amazing. Keep on going ! Greetings Form Germany.Andrea

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Oh wow Andrea, This made my day. I try to keep things light hearted. It's easy to do when it feels like I am doing it with friends.

[@elizabethnovak4951]

I’m impressed! Watching has given me the bug to get a few areas in my home reorganized. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@marinalodi6313]

I love how your family is supportive and join you on the declutters, thats such a healthy habit to have in common haha

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I agree! I’m thankful for their willingness to jump in. I think this decluttering process has been a positive experience for them too as they are feeling less stress from stuff

[@samiragrbovic2964]

Nothing better than declutter 😊😊😊😊

[@Joybug_51]

Good to see you plow through that craft space. Now that you have flexed your decluttering muscles, you finished like a pro! Congratulations to you and your husband.

[@BlueBird-nf2gp]

I was thinking cheesecloth might work. Glad you already had it! My daughter is an artist and my husband paints figures that he prints on his 3D printer, so we have an over abundance of art supply clutter around here. As long as some of it’s being used and enjoyed I try not to stress about it too much. 😊❤🐦

[@mollyelazier3663]

Thank you so much for this series of videos. Honestly, so many decluttering videos just make me feel bad about myself and my home. But your videos inspire me and show me that I am not alone. You and your hubbers are completely adorable too. Frugal Fit Mom sent me over to your channel and I'm so glad. Keep up the great work!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

That is the best compliment. The whole reason I wanted to start this channel was because I felt the same way watching cleaning and decluttering videos. Gotta represent those of us with real messes. We are not alone and are in it together.

[@lisascreativecorner1442]

My craft room is the worst room to approach when it needs a reset. You did a great job! Your husband is awesome….he helps you clean, etc. I can tell you that my former husband would NOT go to Dollar Tree and get me organizational things. No way. It’s great that he supports you. I love your magenta bins…..my favorite color!

[@maddie1519]

Hearing you talk to your grandmother made me so sad I lost my grandmother this year and I was really close to her I miss her so much.

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I am so sorry for your loss. Hugs ❤️❤️❤️

[@leeann5588]

Good job Shannaann. She will love that material!!

[@helengibson8196]

Very inspiring. What a lovely couple you are. Thanks for sharing 🤍

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Thanks for this sweet comment, Helen ❤️❤️❤️

[@cjordan919]

I love your call to your grandma

[@Myeverydaywifelife]

Thanks for the motivation! My Craftroom is a disaster right now! 💜 I need to get to it.

[@nixynightmares]

I've discovered you today and binged the series haha. Uploaded just in time !

[@amma7244]

🥰my dream sewing/quilting space! Sooooo cool what you do!

[@marciapickens7444]

Wow! It must throw you off when you walk in there! Nice!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I feel like I step into another world... 😂

[@leeann5588]

So beautiful after all said & done!!🤩

[@dannieboo209]

Your grandma is the cutest! 💕

[@JohannesJunkJournalLife]

Good job! Finally met someone almost as messy and cluttered as me, but I still have you beat!!! I try every project so I have half a store.

[@leeann5588]

Nice bins Stephen found!! I always keep my boxes to devices in case to ship for repairs or to store in.

[@PrincessCelESF]

I use device boxes in my drawers, especially when I first organize something to see if I like the way it is, before I go get bins and baskets.

[@RachelS-ko7ed]

Same

[@birdwatcher287]

Me too

[@kimberlylamitie2869]

The Apple/iPhone boxes are sturdy and good sizes.

[@dianajones2441]

Very nice! Yes, you've outdone yourself. I am inspired; if it weren't late I would spend an hour working in my overcrowded craft corner. It is an emotional thing for me to even consider downsizing my crafts.

[@debradavid929]

Well done…. So proud of you!

[@The_Joy_Finder]

You must have felt so inspired going to work the next day 💛

[@ScrappingLatina]

Wow. It looks great. Yes, the Amazon tablet went off. Lol. I asked why is it talking and my son said because she said Alexa. 😂😂😂. Thanks for the share.

[@karend8575]

You crack me up! Was just scrolling thru UTube looking for craft room makeovers and there you were! So glad I stopped! I just TOtALLY redid my office/craft room and was looking for some fun storage ideas. And your commentary just had me laughing from day one. Love that you found the “O”! Loved the Rocky moment, just thoroughly enjoyed this. I am going to continue snooping thru your videos. Great job on the room! It does feel so much better doesn’t it? There is a saying I heard once “I went to clean my craft room but couldn’t finish because I got distracted by all the great stuff I found!” 😂🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️ Thank you! 🥰 Karen

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I am so glad you found me Karen. I appreciate all your thoughtful comments ❤️❤️

[@rosariotrujillo4361]

That’s why I put off decluttering, I get distracted by things I find, some items I can’t let go off. I have not done any crafting project at home in probably a year. I did a halloween craft at my mother’s house. She is a crafter and current project is making flower pots out of plastic containers.

[@silaserifoglu7431]

👍Good job. Could not belirve my eyes.

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Me either 😂

[@selinaneil5611]

Wow that’s amazing result

[@lulahbelle970]

Oh wow, Joss Stone. good times good times

[@linayoung4595]

You guys did amazing! Probs to you for going through all these tiny bits and pieces all the time... those I feel like are the worst because they take so much time and make such little difference 🙃

[@AdropAsugar]

Turned out gorgeous!

[@juliegauchay4219]

Great job! Also, you have the most beautiful smile!

[@JustNatasha93]

You did an amazing job here! Wow!

[@nadinewilliamson1037]

I love seeing your extreme declutter. Amazing work.

[@andeebee2530]

Oh wow! Incredible!

[@sunflower7766]

She is an embroidery digitizer. I have to ask my mum to sew on a button.

[@Saaaaarah]

Wow!!! I know this one felt GREAT to accomplish!

[@kellymcrae3836]

Use your device boxes as draw organizers! Sturdy boxes need to be used!

[@viktoriaDe1209]

You are a great couple! ❤

[@tjsgirl1117]

YES!!!!..ITS MONDAY...cup of tea in hand watching Leaf like on a Tree!!!..its a great day!!

[@angieineverettcust2934]

I had to laugh. You asked your Alexa to play Rocky and I look up and my iPad had Rocky ready to play 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@lornamcnutt8047]

I've just found your channel and binge watched your declutter series I loved it and you and your family. I'm also a crafter so this video was my favourite. Your house is so big compared to what most of us have here in London UK Keep up the good work 😀

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Hello fellow crafter! I always thought I wanted a big house until I had to clean it for the first time 😂

[@DipityS]

You and your hubby are adorable together and make a fantastic team. Thank you for taking us along on this epic decluttering and organising journey.

[@TessieDobey]

INCUBUS!!! I LOVE THEM

[@troyacaincross5712]

Blessings me & sis share fabrics & craft supplies💯❤🎉👍

[@LindsayDroke]

You talking with your grandmother 🥰🥰

[@lulahbelle970]

Just imagine the squeals of glee when someone finds the scrapbooking stash at the thriftstore and asks WHY would anyone get rid of this!! 🤜

[@lulahbelle970]

Even if it was gifted, what i said still stands! Furthermore, the open space left from all your work clearing out really is an outter reflection of an inner work... feel it in that after shot. 🤚(high 5)

[@nuksandmissies4466]

John Mayer.....YES! YES! YES! OK...now I'm going to have to go pull out my old cds and take a trip down memory lane myself...😂😂

[@clutterbugmama8093]

Incubus?!🤘 I too have a wide range I like in music...from Black Sabbath to Beyoncé to Slipknot!🤘 I like to think it makes me well rounded! 🤣🤣

[@allysond727]

I had the incubus cd fo sho. Oh gawwwwwwwsh the butterfly clips.

[@PurplePumpkin18]

I just found your videos... You are just a lovely family

[@samjones9465]

Got to laugh, sitting at home desk watching you and I've managed to automatically declutter whilst watching you, lol

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Yay! Decluttering is more fun together.

[@bri-crossing]

I love your channel. Glad I was recommended. You have inspired me to declutter my house. Your family is so cute too :)

[@nuvoclassic]

John Mayer, Eric Clapton - and I've heard of joss stone!

[@sandywlaschin3878]

I needed to watch this. We had to redo our basement and my craft area. Flooring going in Friday then I need to sort and set my stuff! 🥺

[@wendybellhouse5731]

It looks fantastic! I bet it feels great to have done ❤️

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I keep going in there just to look around It feels so good.

[@psychofwill]

I had Lisa Loeb on CASSETTE! The first tape I ever bought myself :)

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Nice! I think NKOTB was my first cassette 😂

[@gaylefarmer5946]

You are so cute. You light up on the screen. I so enjoyed this utube . Looking forward to watching more!

[@junkjournalgirl]

Looks awesome......Now to tackle mine :)

[@Chgtuber]

Wow! So organized! Call to mom :) Husband work together on home:) You so candid and have quick whits. Enjoyed :D

[@danabrown2391]

This looked very daunting to have to clean and organize but you did an amazing job! I couldn't believe you were able to get rid of the scrapbook materials but was so happy when you did!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Thanks Dana! It feels so good to be done with that room. I had neglected it for YEARS.

[@sandraengstrand2784]

Wow, fantastic!!!!

[@supaspygirl4787]

I already know I’m gonna love this. As always, commenting before watching (or rather, while watching). Let’s goooo

[@gaild9003]

Hi Shannon! I re-watched this video today. It's so inspiring! I'm working on my hobby room this weekend. I started yesterday and it seems I need to play some eye of the tiger too. Lol! I needed a dose of your inspiration to keep going. Thank you as always for the motivation 💜

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Ah Thanks for thinking of me to watch it again for a little motivation. I need to get back in there and do another video. Post-Christmas reset. It's a reck in there.

[@lfuentes4098]

Love how supportive and good natured your husband is!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

He’s one of the good ones for sure

[@theuptonfamily1523]

Maroon 5 😊. What a great transformation and so many people will be blessed with the items that you weren’t using! Thanks for sharing

[@karenstairs8273]

I was glad to see you went through the pink pin and collected all your straight pins instead of emptying the bin in the trash!!

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I had to because I only had about 20 I was working with which made it tricky for large sewing projects. I had wondered where they all went. I am glad I found them! Those were my favorite kind too.

[@cinderellafan362436]

I absolutely love the way you have organized and decluttered your craft room. I am working on my hot mess of a craft room now, I have a difficult time separating the fantasy self from the reality. I want/plan to do so many things but it’s just not happening. I am trying to be tough with myself and really purge the things I haven’t touched, used, or see myself using in the next 3 months. It’s tough. I am encouraged to keep going because of seeing you transform your space. Thank you for sharing. Great motivation! Blessings! 😊

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

You can do it. It feels sooooooo good to know where everything it is and even find projects I forgot about. I was tough on myself, because I was busting at the seams on everything. It was worth it. I’m afraid to craft in there, though 😂

[@vivianhudacek1556]

Such a satisfying video! And I’ve finally found someone who has even more fabric & sewing stuff than I do! But I have more pens than you do. :). The craft room looks amazing! And your hubby is such a good helper. You are a pretty lady, BTW. And I love your music. Thanks for the inspiration! This video really is one of my favorites, & I have watched a TON of videos (such a good way to avoid doing my own work-HA!).

[@justjudycrafting7401]

Always keep the boxes. They are always worth money, And if selling the watch the box is needed to make a decent price. Keep.

[@careyclapp8357]

Those device boxes are very sturdy and make great organizational containers and drawer organizers! That's what I use mine for

[@tracyjones1344]

Fantastic!

[@jeanmarshall0017]

Wow just awesome!

[@sharjo52]

Wow! Super👍💥

[@sharonfauerbach211]

I just found your video. My craft room needs help and I needed some inspiration. Loved your makeover. Yes, my Alexa went off and played the Eye of the Tiger. 🤣

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

Nice! Glad I could provide a little inspiration. If yours was anything like mine it can be so overwhelming.

[@sharonfauerbach211]

Mine is overwhelming but I am determined. I've been working on it for two weeks now.

[@coffeefortwosolly]

I actually decluttered my large sewing box only this morning and I felt a sense of achievement...this is so much more well done!😂🙋🏻‍♀️🇬🇧💕jane

[@LeafLikeOnATree]

I'll take small victories just as much as big victories! You probably didn't hurt yourself like I did on this room 😂
