decluttering my entire bedroom + wardrobe || my minimalism journey

do you need some guidance on where to even start when it comes to decluttering and attempting to dive into minimalism? in this video I lay out clear steps and questions to ask yourself when you've decided to declutter your bedroom and wardrobe. let's declutter our rooms together and free ourselves from our excess possessions!!
just remember that the decluttering process for minimalism doesn't happen overnight, and my room still doesn't look like a perfect scandinavian postcard, but I'll be sure to keep you guys up to date on how everything is looking and feeling as time goes on!

Hello my beautiful sunshines! Welcome to this little corner of the internet, where I will be sharing the ups and downs of life and how to attempt to get through it in one piece. I’ll be sharing life advice, minimalism tips, routines, vlogs, houseplant help, and anything else I think you would benefit from! Life is messy and unpredictable, and learning how to manage these hurdles is the first step to leading a happier and more intentional life. I just wanted to create a safe space for us to unwind, and allow you to leave here feeling more inspired than when you arrived.
Sending you all my love,
Grace

I've watched hundreds of minimalism videos but I've never heard the question "would my life be more difficult if I didn't have this?" I'm headed off to declutter my bedroom with this mentality and will probably end up with an empty room by the end of it LOL

[@gracenevitt]

I've found it's been the most helpful question for me when I'm deciding on whether to get rid of something or not!! hopefully it helps!

[@jbooots8691]

I know this is so random (and late lol) but it's so freaking refreshing to see a normal person's room declutter/minimalism journey! I swear 99% of the people posting decluttering content already have aesthetic/tidy rooms or houses and just makes it feel even more impossible to achieve minimalism the way it's portrayed in social media. Thank you for making this!

[@gracenevitt]

my absolute pleasure!!! this is exactly why I do this!!!! 💗💗

[@Karolina-dr8du]

For me practically less stuff in my room=easy to clean and no mess, black, white, grey (neutrals in general) clothes = easier to wash, no heels, no uncomfortable clothes =actually me being more confident in what I wear and more comfy…I basically just want to make things easier for myself

[@gracenevitt]

exactly!!!! I feel like this is absolutely the point of minimalism. ease of life and less decision fatigue!

[@kaypat23]

Thank you for this meaningful video. I'll be decluttering my wardobe this week. It's high time!

[@NuresseSinclair]

Just wanna say that you can potentially alter a piece of clothing by taking it to a tailor, if that helps you wear clothing. You can also take shoes to a cobbler to help them fit better.

This week I performed the most successful closet purge ever. I'm so proud. Tomorrow I have to go through my drawers and shoes before my peeps come over to look through the pile. Then off to my favorite charity. Such a great feeling. I legit didn't even have room to put everything away and my side of the closet was a mess. My mind feels better.

I've been watching your decluttering playlist in the background as I declutter and it's been fun to do it "together!" Thanks for posting these :)

[@nnb02]

Me too this week along with cluttebug podcast. So helpful for realistic motivation. ❤

[@stschubs]

for the clothes you're not sure on, stick them in a cardboard box with a date on it, if you don't reach for those clothes by that date, donate it :)

[@gracenevitt]

I love this idea!!!

[@samanthabarnes1681]

I have kept an evening dress for many years only wear it once in 5 years. When i do i feel awesome. Its sparkly😅. Love your channel and how real you are

[@elizabethanne555]

As soon as I finish dinner I’m going upstairs and going through my tshirts. Tomorrow I’ll do sweaters. You’re so kind and so motivational. Definitely saying words I needed to hear

[@gracenevitt]

that's so sweet!! best of luck to you!!! you got this!! 💪🏼

[@nxtimemusic]

great video Grace, love the timelapse!!

[@Sophie-kn3gh]

Love declutters!

[@paradereigner]

Great video! I also started minimalist journey in November. I'm seeing the benefits already. Keep the videos coming. Its awesome to see like minded ppl implementing minimalism. Thank you for sharing

[@gracenevitt]

thanks for watching! definitely very excited to share more☺️

[@cactus10814]

The time limit on selling is so great! I have a pile in my room of things for sale and it definetly give me axiety. I probably spend way too much time refreshing listings on poshmark etc. just to end up with a few bucks. Thanks for the inspiration to set a realistic time limit so i can free myself from this stuff !

[@vibingvegan]

Good job, and great tips. Decluttering is very therapeutic... at least to me haha

[@gracenevitt]

it definitely is!! I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders already and I still have a very long way to go LOL

[@alanbirkner1958]

I'm 73. Life is too short to wear clothes I don't like. I haven't worn a skirt or dress in over 5 years. I wear beige, navy, olive green, black, and gray. Tina, Al's wife

[@mia812]

It was fun going through this with you! I’m next! 😊

[@gracenevitt]

can't wait !!!! so glad this inspired you to get on the minimalism train!! 🚂

[@joyellezealous]

Truly helped a lot ❤

[@gracenevitt]

I'm so glad!!!

[@amm-xn6nr]

I'd like to share my personal hack, hoping it might help someone else as well. I have a rule that I buy 4 things for every 5 I get rid of (sell / donate / throw out). It works wonders with clothes, accessories and books. However, it might not be for anyone. I'm a strict perfectionist, don't judge me! :)

[@gracenevitt]

that's a great rule of thumb!

[@nnb02]

Such a great way to scale down your possessions over time, thanka

[@TreisiGomez]

Me wanting to go minimalistic but haven’t lol finding your video as a recommendation and hoping to get inspired to declutter every time I de clutter I soon fill it back up haha ❤

[@gracenevitt]

this makes me so happy!!! I have a video where I talk about a bit of the prep work that goes into minimalism too and it might help set a foundation for you so the clutter doesn't creep back in!

[@daria_avery]

[@gracenevitt]
