My kids and i are about to move, and it felt like the best time to declutter and organize as i pack and put things together in each room. It felt so uplifting to declutter each room and just try to get to the bare minimum. This is what makes my heart happy and full. Living with less is more. Also great for mental health. Watching videos like yours and others is so inspiring 😊❤ (also calming)

As soon as I bring something new into my house that has a cord, i haul out my label maker and attach a label to it. Now, all my cords are labeled and all kept in the same container. Makes things SO much better.

Sentimental things are really hard! I totally relate. I’m already dreading taking down the crib and donating to a friend in the next couple of months 🥲 but for me personally, I think of all the people who will find joy in the items I’ve donated that I no longer use. All the clothes that my kids can’t wear that children who maybe can’t afford them, can wear. If I keep that mindset, it makes it so much easier for me! Even my daughter gets on board saying she’s happy to donate her toys to children in need or to families who can’t afford them 🩷
