EXTREME DECLUTTER - The Closet I NEVER Wanted You To See... \\ Before + After

[@dianaluis3313]

Came here from Natalie's channel and she was right, your channel is awesome. I really do love the real-life decluttering and organizing that is not pinteresty. Relatable, doable and inspiring. Can't wait to see more.

[@brianadeeds597]

You are the best at picking background music. There are so many cleaning/declutter motivation videos that I watch on mute hahaha

[@NatalieBennett]

VIRTUAL HIGH FIVE TAKEN!! 🙏🏻 *And YUP my utility room/ pantry WAS just as bad. 🙊🙊🙊 Thanks for collaborating with me! I LOVED this video, Angie! I think this was my favorite one in your De-Cluttering series! SOOOO satisfying!*

[@angela.braniff]

So glad to have a Decluttering buddy along the way 😘

[@AMcDub0708]

Yes to extra space! Gretchen Rubin (book: The Happiness Project) found this to be essential 😊

[@gatomartinez7792]

Girl, that was not your utility closet...that was Narnia 😂

[@angela.braniff]

Ha! So true. 🤣

[@estopesto2647]

THE CLOSET!!!! You've honestly been talking about this closet for years 😂 must be so satisfying to get this above all sorted!

[@vmcgriff]

Loving this series! We all have “those” closets!! But I am very impressed with the Tetris skills going on here with the amount of stuff that came out of that small space!! 🤣😘♥️

[@mirsavon7751]

So happy to see the next installment!! Thank you for the time and effort you put into your videos, and for being real and not hiding even what you feel are the worst parts. It makes me feel like I really can tackle my own house de-clutter. I like long videos 🤩 I quite often watch while doing my dishes 😊

[@leighaparker8798]

I NEEEED more Angie videos please. And thank you! Yall are by far my favorite and so inspiring and uplifting! Lots of love from Western North Carolina!

[@MommaFromScratch]

The sign in the background you took out don’t give up, so fitting because it’s overwhelming for sure. I’m trying to do the same and it’s hard . Thank you for both you an Natalie for sharing it helps keep me going!

[@katiethomas2170]

I LOVE seeing all of the Usborne & Kane Miller books. I am an Usborne Books & More consultant and I have paused and zoomed in to see if I could find more than the obvious ones multiple times :) I have been a follower of both of your channels for a while. I just came across this decluttering series from the old house. Love some good decluttering. It's inspiring to keep it up at my house!

[@kristinrobinson774]

I remember in an earlier video y’all were talking about adding in a second fridge/freezer, and I think this is where it should go. It will probably create more of a pinch point if it is closer to the door. That being said I don’t have a suggestion of where to move the utility closet stuff that actually useful. Thanks for the videos. I love them!

[@MollyT119]

This was literally my coat closet a few months ago. It’s a ton of work but how SATISFYING does it feel when it’s all done, you know??? 🤩

[@kirstenbenson6830]

I love these videos. We are a family of 11!! We just moved into a brand new house and watching these videos helps me as I am organizing our house! Your doing awesome!!

[@angela.braniff]

How exciting!!!

[@sunflower7766]

Make a you tube channel so we can watch how you sort your house!. Can't imagine how you move as a family of 11. I found it stressful as a family of 4 when I moved !

[@daisybuchanan5378]

We had to eliminate a whole closet in our house for our bathroom renovation. I’ve never missed it ! Forced us to streamline coats and shoes and put the rest where it goes. Great job ! Thank-you so much. Inspiring.

[@jackistemper1419]

That was amazing....I could watch and listen to you all day ! I enjoy your sense of humor so much... it's totally real life with you and you tackled that closet like a pro ! 👏👏👏 👏👏

[@jennifer6833]

Yay, decluttering has returned!!! Love love love these epic videos, Angie!!! Your content is always gem-filled!! ❤️☀️🌸🦋

[@roxyzook8677]

I love all the nasty stuff! It happens to all of us. No worries. And I love seeing it get all clean then. So satisfying,

[@peachpuddin]

Great job!! I have a linen closet full of everything except linen. Every time I think about decluttering it, I feel overwhelmed. When you started pulling stuff out, I felt overwhelmed for you :-D . But, your vid gave me inspiration to get it down!!

[@lindavido5041]

Beautiful family, love the fact that you and Natalie keep it real. I enjoy both your videos, it gives me inspiration now I just need the energy

[@loripark6391]

Loving the decluttering videos! Very motivational because I've been on the same road since baby #5. Thank you 👍🌻😁.

[@denisecarter5117]

When you panned the amount you took out of that one closet I couldn’t believe it.

[@angela.braniff]

Right?!? I know how to stuff a closet 🤪

[@Arkiegirl26]

I have to admit my jaw dropped too

[@mj5697]

Angie, this might be a really weird thing to say, but your teeth look absolutely phenomenal! 😲

[@angela.braniff]

Thank you! I’m almost done with my clear aligners, it’s been about a year since I started and Im so happy with the progress!

[@ecppce1]

I watched the majority this morning and was going to work on the foyer closet before I had to leave with hubby .. that didn’t work. Finished the end of the video and it looks great!! Putting us a pizza bread in the toaster oven and gonna start in the closet. After we eat we are pulling the stove out to clean that area and taking that stove out to be picked up Wednesday.. tomorrow afternoon new stove comes!!! Excited!!!

[@beautyforashes8284]

I'm trying to declutter as well. Problem is, my husband is a "collector", so I can get rid of my stuff, my daughter's stuff, household stuff, etc. As soon as I do, my husband brings more stuff into the house. 🙄🤦‍♀️

[@angela.braniff]

Oh man- It’s hard when you aren’t on the same page!

[@beautyforashes8284]

@@angela.braniff SO hard! 😫😞😭

[@Arkiegirl26]

I have this problem too. Mine has gotten much better though

[@syarifafatimaha]

Try selling it secretly, see if he notice 😂 (I am single so don't take it seriously).

[@mirandolina46]

My husband is a chronic junk collector, there are rooms full of the stuff now that we have the house to ourselves. The garage is choc-a-bloc with junk, there has never been a car in it.

[@sunflower7766]

Would the fire extinguisher be best in the kitchen so it's in reach ??

[@norapelamo5079]

Yay! Was waiting more of these!

[@cassipost3511]

Could you talk about the yard signs in a future video and what you ended up doing with them? I live in metro atlanta and I’ve seen a few of them around my town and I think they are so great.

[@dottydisorganised8965]

The problem with my utility closet is basically my husband! He is untidy and a hoarder of tools etc I keep sorting it and he keeps messing it up!

[@tabethaboruck1242]

My advice with that one, to keep your sanity give that closet to him and just say everything needs to fit so the door can close and never think about it again! (I with you, I would rather have neat and tidy, bit those men need space too, lol!)

[@angela.braniff]

Cr is too- he collects little pockets of clutter, but we’re all working on changing habits 🙃

[@coffeefortwosolly]

Another great job...I did chuckle when you pulled out the sign ..’Don’t give up’ 😂🤗🙋🏻‍♀️🇬🇧💕

[@maggiemurray2530]

When my two favorite vlogger colab!!!! Excitement overload!!! 😍

[@tammyi363]

Thanks for sharing your “dirt”. Curious- those areas you have already decluttered and organized, are you able to keep up with keeping it that way? I find myself falling back in to bad habits😞

[@autumnhernandez5255]

I have been LOVING these series you and Natalie have been doing!! It’s been so motivational! I have tackled so many areas of my own home- the biggest being my closet where I had 9 bags of clothes for donation! 🙈

[@MandyWinkle]

Oh my gosh I watch Natalie and yes her voice is so soothing! You inspired me to do my garage!

[@Prettyinpinkkk03]

Beautiful inside and out! Loving, real and I love to keep rewatching your videos while I clean and do my mommy duties🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@McNamaraFamilyVlogs]

Somebody beat me to it... I love the box that's just labeled "poison." 😆😆

[@trinemianyquist-brekke6659]

Then the sign that said Dont give up🤣🤣🤣🤣 lol😍

[@angiejohnson3565]

You are my hero. That is not a fun organizing project, and you did amazing. May I ask about your background music? Who is the artist(s)? I love the music you use for your videos.

[@kimgnerre8597]

I was impressed from the start that you fit that much stuff in that closet to begin with. It was like clowns coming out of a car! 😂😂 Loving these videos!

[@pattyobryan3992]

You did a fabulous job and it looks great! Inspiring too!

[@June-yf5zc]

I just love this channel and I can't wait to get the book

[@sandiebarrios25]

Came from Natalie's channel, and just wanted to say I absolutely love your heart. Such a sweet spirit about you 💖

[@cherilynclements3188]

The closet looks great!!

[@abigailscott6704]

Honestly seeing her sweep the bottom of that closet was the most satisfying thing ever.

[@mariavictoriafiscella9551]

Funny thing was... You found a motivational picture along the way " " don't give up"... It's a sign! Keep it up!

[@Creppycookies]

Wow the before and after was amazing, fantastic job ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@katiebug6834]

Fast question! How do you handle crafts in your house? I have 5 children who love to craft and I also homeschool. The scrap paper, coloring books, pencils, scissors ect get our of control in our house. I tried having a small trash bin for scraps and it just get knocked over 🤣 My kids never want to help pick up after crafting so my kitchen and livingroom are a huge art room. Any ideas? Lol

[@angela.braniff]

Solidarity sister. It’s a constant battle over here too! I just have to constantly stay on top of them to get it picked up. Sometimes I have take away the supplies for a few days until they realize I’m serious about cleaning them up 😉

[@christinedisneyqueen5746]

Great job! Keep makin it happen! ☺️

[@McGoughHeather]

I love watching all your videos but especially this de clutter series. So many have super annoying music but I clean along right with you when watching your vlogs! Thanks for sharing!

[@amandademarco5527]

I found your channel while watching Natalie's homeschool videos. I love both of you.

[@mcwmulkens]

It looks great! I have a shed that is in desperate need of some organizing, but we have had a lot of rain lately and I'm honestly waiting for better spring weather to tackle it. I dislike bugs, and there will be plenty of spiders, but it has to happen! I actually had a wasp-nest removed from it last year, so I'm looking forward to it being finished!

[@malou3184]

Hi Angela. I've watched 4 full videos of you here. Im from the Philippines. over here we do try to keep the things we have in our house to the minimum. I admire your hardwork in decluttering your house. I wonder if everything is kept on track from the time u did this video . I hope you and your family is doing well.

[@staceygeddes7796]

I loved the silly dog in the background at the beginning lol You are my cleaning inspo!

[@minimalzebra]

Love your channel and natalie’s and love both your declutters and organization.❤️

[@lisaporch8922]

I feel so normal after watching your messes too! But how am I supposed to do mine I’m exhausted after watching you do all the work 😂🙊. Thanks for sharing ❤️

[@jacirogers9109]

Great job. So fun when it is done!

[@paularedden2087]

I loved the Don't Dive Up sign. Lol

[@dreamtraveldisney]

Looks amazing! 🤩 I love watching these videos!

[@Ak-ge8iz]

I’m here for it!! 😍

[@Chuulip]

Box: says "poison" Me: 🤨

[@angela.braniff]

Hahahahaha it’s just insect spray etc, but it’s poisonous for people too 😬 I actually had them moved outside because I don’t want it in the house.

[@alycecline5053]

Yeah I was thinking that should go on a higher shelf

[@irenehinojosa6629]

The end result was very realistic! You go girl! 😜

[@sweetafr7820]

Very good job I like the way it looks much better

[@peggyk.738]

I am sooo loving this series! I live in a small town, and literally no one is taking donations. They are inundated with STUFF. I think the whole world is decluttering. 😂

[@tabethaboruck1242]

I hope the hoarding/stocking up choas has yet to hit your area, because finding tp might become an adventure! I greatly enjoy your vlogs, much love from Oregon ;)

[@angela.braniff]

Not too bad that I’ve noticed.

[@kellbell.8579]

Loving this series Angela! 🙂 It's surprising how much stuff we gather over time, isn't it? I'm on a simplifying/minimizing journey (me, a teen, and 3 kids in 900sq ft), and it feels so good to be getting things in order! Can I ask how big your house is? 🙂

[@MousyLeigh]

You’ve been decluttering so much I figured you didn’t have anything left to declutter. Lol. If I didn’t have small kids at home I’d be declutter in’s all day. Lol

[@angela.braniff]

I’m still not done 😂😂😂

[@emilylanz-henderson3083]

Well done!! Still wonder how you do it....❤

[@devereauxmanuel]

Another amazing video ❤thank you

[@oumaya4884]

you are good person full of positive energie sorry for my english coz iam francophone libe from morocco

[@lorraineperrault2431]

U make everything so easy

[@karenbradbury7375]

I attacked my pantry this weekend. Felt good xx

[@ballerinaladybird405]

Wow I am first to watch !!!!!

[@irenehinojosa6629]

Wow, impressive how much stuff you were able to pile in there.

[@meluvfriends]

Hey Angie, I loved this video as always. I dont know if it was just on my end. But this video came up super quiet for me. I turned it all the way up on my phone. Im not sure if there is a way to turn it up on your end but I love listening to them while Im doing my chores and I couldnt hear ya! 🙂❤️

[@jkmycko1]

I think it may have been an issue on your end. I watched it and the volume was fine for me.

[@angela.braniff]

It was on my end... my mic acted up and this was as much as I could pull up the audio :(

[@meluvfriends]

Angela Braniff it was wonderful as always!! I still watched all the way through :) no worries lady

[@amandajeannine2819]

Your eyes are stunning!!! Always think so, just decided to comment that today. You're inspiring me to clean my apartment up sooo much!!

[@angela.braniff]

Thank you 😘

[@murphy1384]

Amazing what decluttering can do.

[@mamabenzing5872]

I have a lot of crap!! I've been slowly getting rid of it. My mom is a hoarding so if I need motivation,I go and visit her. I end up decluttering something after I visit with her.

[@whitleysgirl]

During one of your kitchen declutter videos, you had those labels in your hand and walked past the camera towards your coffee station. Perhaps you put your labels in one of those drawers.

[@user-rm4yd2cl2k]

I Loved this! Thank you!!!!!

[@aunichools]

Where are your slippers from?

[@elizamartinez4184]

You mention it in all your videos in this series and it's so true for me. I love seeing the filth. Because its REALITY. Nobody I know has that many kids (even half) and still has their entire life and house in perfect order!!! Yes its gross, but it's real and that's one of the things I love about your channel❤

[@croccatcher]

You did an awesome job x

[@HDMIcord]

do americans not vacuum? cause ive seen everyone just sweep, but in finland we only sweep outside.

[@kaelatwede155]

We use both! I only own a vacuum that can do carpet so I sweep. Most have one that can clean hard wood and carpet. I can't wait to get a vacuum that can do both 🤣

[@mrstrice420]

I sweep hard floors and vacuum carpets. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@rachelhenry2328]

idk but i like gorillaz Americans vacuum. A lot of people tend to vacuum rugs, carpeting, upholstery, etc. Tile and wood floors are often swept and mopped. I’m sure there are exceptions to that!

[@stoldbyJ]

Americans vacuum! Haha! We vacuum carpet/rugs more than hard surfaces.

[@Katie-fv6ej]

We usually only vacuum carpet. We sweep and mop "hard" floors. I will usually sweep a pile of dirt and then use the vacuum hose instead of a dustpan to clean up the pile, but we got a Roomba so now we let him do all the work and just make sure hes charged and emptied.

[@elizamartinez4184]

I'm relatively new (only watched the decluttering videos so far) but I was wondering what your husband does for work to support such a large family? I love hearing about how other people do budgeting. but I hope this doesnt offend you at all ❤

[@angela.braniff]

He used to work for a bank doing social media- but now he works with me. We are self employed.

[@joannaserrano1783]

My favorite part was.. DONT GIVE UP SIGN

[@tinalane9866]

Where did you find the over to door rack? Is it just for brooms and mops and other supplies or anything?

[@meganholdham8370]

I like that you also have a box labeled "poison".

[@bethtoledo9488]

where is your sweatshirt from?! I NEED it!!!

[@angela.braniff]

It’s old from free people :)

[@erinkimmel9479]

My basement is one giant utility closet full of odds and ends like that, so frustrating to deal with!

[@RNExplorer253]

"You can't clean clutter." That is why decluttering and purging are so vital.

[@ginamcgrew9955]

I have loved this video series!!!

[@crystallmm1]

Fist Comment :) I love your videos :) x

[@kaistartar1952]

You are great mom and work hard like a boss I’m proud of you sister I love you so much you do great job I enjoy 😊 you’re the best

[@abbigailnihei3794]

You look so nice in every video. I barely even wear jeans and only have one kid 😂❤️

[@maarithaapaniemi7965]

[@vera1346]

[@jsblake199]
