tackling *those* areas of my home ... HUGE Declutter & Organize With Me + DIY Kids Closet // Ep. 04

[@Breighahhhna]

If you do end up wanting a closet door without pinched fingers , I turned all my children’s closet door knobs backwards once my son could open doors bc he would wreck his closet , & I keep his toys that are waiting to be rotated back out in the closet, the knobs come with a key that I leave on top the trim of the door , it’s so nice specially when other kids come visit to not have a closet wrecked every time

[@daniellepitzel]

Eloise intensely staring at the camera during the first clip 😂 both adorable and hilarious

[@martatkachuk4409]

I've been waiting for the perfect moment to relax and watch this video. My four month old was having a really rough day, and after hours of consoling, hosting people, doing laundry, and tidying the house, I can finally climb under the covers with my tea and watch without interruptions as my baby sleeps soundly. This is my little luxury, so thank you Delilah 🤍

[@karoosten232]

Doing the same… but at the table with food

[@sallycroft2191]

You seem so relaxed as you declutter, clean and organized. I loved how Eloise loved helping you . You are such a loving wonderful Mom.❤❤❤❤❤

Decluttering videos are my favorite! In fact, that's how I found your channel; when you were decluttering to move into this new house! I stayed because of your personality and darling kids!! I LOVE your channel!

[@kaylee9773]

I seriously love the decluttering series!! Gave me so much motivation to declutter my room!

[@kaylee9773]

it’s always a great Friday when Delilah posts!!!❤❤

[@Terragiggles]

William is starting to look so much like little Theo! EDIT: These are my favorite kinds of videos that you make. The first video of yours I watched was a declutter/organization video from your old house.

[@marynicolezen]

Hi Delilah! Maybe you could sew a curtain to put temporarily in replacement of the kids' closet door? :) Just an idea I thought I'd share ❤️❤️

[@melindaedgington9925]

I've done this and it works great.

[@scarletth427]

I was thinking the same thing! It could look so beautiful! ✨

[@ryleevavra8619]

I’d LOVE an update on the no fold method. I seriously think this would make my life so much easier but it kills me to see kids in wrinkly clothes and my perfectionism also wants to fold them. Luckily my daughter doesn’t ever take her clothes out, so it’s not too bad but still, probably will happen at some point and minimizing my laundry chore would be encouraging to do it more! Haha

[@lacoccin3lla]

I know I’m not Delilah but I practice this method as well because otherwise I would never get laundry done. I personally use a cube shelf in the closet and bins to sort between tshirts tanks tops shorts pants swim pajamas etc. I find the key to not getting wrinkles is really not to overstuff the bins. It might be different if you prefer to dress your kid in nicer outfits and button downs but for the most part my kids wardrobe is t shirts and shorts. Super casual and anything nicer I will hang but I don’t keep more than a couple nice outfits for whatever size he’s in as it’s just not our lifestyle. 😊

[@ChloeJ1999]

I’m exactly the same as you! Instead of a no-fold method, I opt for a minimal fold method. I literally just fold the kids shirts in half and then lay it in the drawer. That way, their tops don’t get wrinkled, and it takes me a minimal amount of time to put laundry away.

[@katelynshipman4575]

I clicked on this video so fast! Decluttering videos are my favorite! Of course we would love more like this!

[@rachelmay2357]

My family is moving soon and this gives me such drive to really declutter as I pack so we can start fresh in a clean organized new home 😊

[@candiceanderson1132]

Gahhh! I can't tell you how much i needed this cleaning inspiration! Love putting on your videos while I clean!

[@hollyheaton5305]

I use the 'no fold' method with my daughter, and the aim is to teach her to look after her clothes, but right now she is almost 4 and teaching her to put away her own clothes, without the pressure of folding, seems to be the best place to start. Loved the video, I'm really enjoying your decluttering series. ❤

[@PolkaDotSunglasses]

I was so unmotivated to do housework/meal prep but this has me ready to get moving! I may even find some more spaces to organize/refresh!

[@juliepltz7711]

I've been participating to a church meeting for couple recently, and the priest of my church (catholic in France) awared us on our standards of living which he found very high. He said at 30, you don't have to own the full equipment. And seeing you decluter all this stuff always remember me how important minimalism is in our society where we own everything and even more ! 😮😊

[@simplylovedwell]

I love when you take us along

[@thetreasureinthefield]

I do the no folding system for clothes too and it’s such a relief! They grab their clean hamper, sort items and throw them in their drawers. It’s so simple and the kids can manage it themselves. They are 5 and 6. Sometimes my 6 year old decides to fold his clothes himself, and most of the time he doesn’t! So he’s still learning to fold all on his own. It’s great. I love this series!

[@nagad]

This was so satisfying to watch, completely deep cleaned my bathroom in the process ❤❤❤

[@flamingoliz]

Mentioning this just because I didn't see it addressed- it would be good to anchor the new kid closet furniture to the wall if you haven't done so in case the top unit gets bumped and tips. Always love a good decluttering video 😊

[@myidol71]

Please make a mini van tour and organization tips video! I think we are about to get a mini van and would love a video on it!

[@nyxcole]

I just finished cleaning up and decluttering my house. I definitely feel relax and accomplished as I lay on my fresh bedsheets after showering.

[@claudiavecchio7812]

Your daughter is so darling such a brilliant little helper ❤

[@stephanieo8925]

No fold is great for larger families! I have my older kids take their clean unfolded laundry pile to their room and they put them in their drawers. My oldest son will sometimes choose to fold but that’s up to him;) saves so much time and unnecessary energy!

[@JimenezB385]

I love the honesty of wanting to tidy up the mud room before starting filming😅

[@elizabethalfson1973]

I feel like every video I watch, I see different interesting components of your home! You should do a home tour video! The layout seems so interesting.

[@foofookachoo1136]

I know,right??!! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a house layout such as this!! But I do love it, and wish it were mine!!

[@HAppytobeHer]

I loveeee this, the nesting bug and spring cleaning is coming in hot this year! 🥰

[@lizzyedge2749]

Not even 2 minutes in and I love how you have Settlers of Catan and Ticket to Ride

[@Jmw1979.]

It's so wholesome to watch ur family how u invl ur kids in things u do what a gd hubby helping doing things. Whatever u post I love cause ur family makes me happy ty for sharing

[@tamarap387]

Loved this. Especially the slower, softer music and the pace of the video! (Such a nice change from the dance music, speed videos many youtubers are turning out!) Oh, and btw....I would be just like you...having to hold myself back from folding those kids clothes in the bins! Would love to see more videos like this one!

[@hannahbentson9374]

I just moved my 3rd child into the same room with her siblings and we did a very similar closet system. 👌🏼 All about simple & easy

[@raquel_loves_her_dog]

Loved all the organization inspo! This video will be great to go back to once I have kiddos myself 💕

[@Syl_Lac0898]

This series was sooo good and satisfying to watch. I’ve watched many of your decluttering and cleaning videos and they were a huge inspiration to me to do the same in my home. Lately I’ve been watching a lot of KZbin shorts of people organizing drawers and closets and such so I’ve been going to Dollarama and Homesense for some clear bins (easier to see what I have) and organize just about every room in my home. My poor husband just rolls his eyes now when he sees me come home with bins and/or baskets lol 😂. Oh, but what a difference it has made in our home! I feel so much lighter and calm now that all the extra stuff is gone and what remains is well organized. I attacked our closet, all bathrooms, kitchen and linen closet. Thank you again for these videos! They have been a big help. 🤗💚

[@barefootandroaming]

Loving the deck uttering series. Seeing storage and organization solutions in home for families gives me so much motivation. Currently waiting on baby #1 and I am in full nesting mode so this video was perfect timing for me as I’m working through our home too. Love your vlogs & family life! ❤

[@Theimperfecthomemaker]

Just want to thank you for your videos, it’s help inspire me to create content, I’m to anxious to share personal details but been able to be creative with silent vlogs YOU ARE AMAZING, I love seeing other moms ❤

[@alh2116]

I know the last few weeks I have been decluttering my house because I am getting ready to have Surgery in April the 17th. I am having knee replacement surgery because my right knee implant popped out . I did go though my clothes and got rid of 6 bags. That felt great to get rid of. Thank you for the encouragement it has been wonderful !!!!

[@cutiebm]

I have just accepted that I am constantly decluttering. I start in one corner and work my way down to organize the garage and then begin again.

[@AmmaraSHAH773377]

I can't imagine having all that storage space. But again it has been a long process and you have 3 kids. I'm just going to appreciate the one room i have with my 2 kids now alhamdulilah 2!!! I'm so blessed. It will be worth waiting for our own space as a family whenever we get to have the freedom to have an empty house and empty storage space leaving half a closet empty is definitely the way i want to live. Better have less tahn the storage space no need to fill it all up.

[@nicoleneesby]

We are 2 months into our home reno while living in an rv on our property + I’m taking all the organization notes for when we move in 😅🤩

[@kathyreed9747]

Love watching these videos when I'm doing the same household things! Makes me feel like I'm doing it with a friend! 😊

[@Leslygx3]

Im one of those mothers that enjoys seeing these type of videos 😍

[@journalmum5606]

Perfect video and perfect timing. I’m in the process of decluttering since yesterday and i love ur videos. I search decluttering videos but its not as motivating as when you watch someone you love haha. Thank you. Have a great day. May God bless you and ur family💕!

[@guess2467]

I loveeee the decluttering series

[@sambito702]

Great timing! We close on our first (and hopefully forever) home next month and I’ve been so overwhelmed with the packing and decluttering but excited at the same time!

[@florencecavallaro4599]

your work is great/we love you/i hope yyou never leave us//

[@daynawaters8706]

Just a tip in our girls room we removed the closet door as it was a literal door and it swung out into the room and it just took up space needing clearance for it to open so we used a tension rod and curtain to cover the closet and it’s super cute and kind of hides the contents of the closet

[@minnamae25]

You have Ticket to Ride. That is a really fun board game. We play it a lot.❤

[@milenataylor2]

I really love when you do those videos. I am always motivated after watching you declutter.❤

[@Mamalegendjen]

I would love a video on how you decide to give away certain things. My head I would totally keep those yellow jackets for next baby . I feel like you could make a great video on how to declutter ! The ins and outs . That's so good William has 1 drawee only 😮 my son has a full dresser and closet , it does get overwhelming

[@karoosten232]

Agreed! I was like “wait! Not the jackets!!”

[@hannahbentson9374]

some of my fav kind of videos 😍 all the declutter inspo!

[@jamie-leewatson3565]

Decluttering videos are my favourite 😊

[@kymcoote6769]

Just a thought if you put the good coats in the front cupboard the laundry cupboard would be less full and you only get your good coats occasionally not daily…. Just a thought. Lots of love to all 💕💙💕💙💙🇦🇺👏🎬

[@RevRainsUtopia]

You could put up a curtain if you want to hide the. Closet, also maybe you could use that extra under bed storage tub for there books

[@ericagestelle9655]

I would love to see you organize the storage room!

[@tatyanaargirov1928]

No fold system all the way! We’ve been doing it for a while and it’s great. We only hang church dresses and sweaters

[@trinaolson7131]

decluttering is so motivating! thx for sharing

[@reillycampbell167]

I love love this series and this video! The laundry room looks so good! I was so excited to watch this video once I saw you posted it!

[@Buttercream580]

I started the no fold method when my son was a a toddler. He would have a blast throwing the clothes all over the room. Now he just changes a bunch of times to find the perfect outfit and still have clean clothes all over the floor. 😂 Your family is so sweet!

[@ΘεοδώραΚαλλαντζή]

Thank you deep from my hurt for the power you give me!! 🙂

[@SharaLee60]

You did a great job, Delilah, on decluttering. I was wondering when you would stop folding all those clothes over & over. I remember doing it too for a while, but finally, I had to just let them fold their own clothes or just let them be unfolded. When mine were a little older they washed their own clothes also. It helped me a lot! Love this series, but I would like it not to be so fast when we see it. Maybe not everything, just a few things, so we know how you say to keep, or to give away or for next babies, etc. Thanks for sharing! ❤🫂

[@jacquelinesuares4196]

Hey Delilah, here's to thank you for your up lif thing videos i always enjoy your videos. Take it easy girl your doing well, i give you and your sweet kids lots of klaps on your backs. Love you always❤❤❤

[@jennaraatikainen1848]

I recommend the no fold method! I got three kids and a messy husband. I have not wasted my time folding clothes in several years. Totally recommend. Folding clothes wastes your life when they are going to mess it up in seconds again 😂

[@donikawilliams5513]

Awesome Job! You gave me so much motivation, You are an Amazing Mommy!!!

[@lisadevries992]

I like the look of the laundry items in the jars, but consider putting the safety info of the package on the jars. In case of an accident looking at the label vs looking up what to do can make a real difference in the outcome! Not trying to lecture, I just don't want you beautiful family to get hurt ❤ Much love!

[@greenserene2676]

I love this series! I would love some advice either from you, Delilah (or any other moms in the comments). I really admire your calm demeanor. You have your plate FULL with 3 kids + 1 on the way, you manage your own business and your home. Things are chaotic for you, but I don't know if it's just for videos, but it seems like you have a sense of peace. I have two kids, almost 3 year old and an 8 month old. I feel like with my 3 year old is always pushing boundaries-- there are so many battles/ power struggles. It could just be her age. Any advice how to remain calm? I do my best to practice gentle parenting. I pray about this almost everyday. I feel like I am a ticking time bomb sometimes! I want to respect my children and myself, I feel like if I yell-- I lose. Thanks in advance.

[@alwaysemilia]

I’m not a mom, but I have struggled with staying calm in my life. I think you should first, give yourself grace because you obviously really care about being a good mom! I’m sure you’re doing your best. For me, the biggest change was realizing the narrative I had about myself was that I was “passionate” or “no nonsense”. Well it translated to being reactive and aggressive. I saw it in other people and didn’t like it. I realized I could be different if I chose to be. It still pops out, don’t get me wrong 😅 but it has made a difference for me

[@VeronicaCostaF]

Just an idea: take all the drawers out and get some rods and just hang everything it's faster to hang than to fold, you can see everything and it's easy to access too (mini wooden rods where the drawers are)

[@d.c.1851]

Love these declutter videos! When you said closet doors sound like pinched fingers I laughed because at 3 years old I pinched my finger in a closet door so hard I needed stitches.

[@BookWormNerd101]

Watching you clean makes me miss when I was a stay at home mom 💔

[@casn3424]

I love your declutering video.😍

[@kelli6444]

I love no fold! I do the same for my pajamas and leggings

[@Dana-mb1hd]

Something I definitely need to do! Thank you for the inspiration!❤

[@kellypruitt2362]

Yes, please more videos like this ❤❤

Great decluttering, I'm doing my house at the moment

[@jessietaylor7706]

You make motherhood seem so easy. I’m having my second baby in august and I’m scared that I won’t know how to balance life out 😅

I know you have said it before but now I can’t find it!! What color are your walls and doors/trim? I love the combo!

[@heatherbowser3635]

Old sheets make good fabric to use to test fit on a new pattern. or if the are good quality to use as actual fabric. I bought a linen king size sheet for 30.00 and I plan to make myself a pants.

[@heatherbowser3635]

How do you keep all their light color clothes from being stained? My boys are always bin the dirt and mud which is great but I can t keep their light colored clothes clean looking.

[@beebooker11]

Love organizing videos. ❤️

[@chelseawhite9716]

Took a break from decluttering and reorganizing my pantry to eat and watch this. 😂 Where is the jewelry case from? I love it!

[@Tia_marie]

Love these videos!!

[@AmmaraSHAH773377]

I wish i jad used my middle trimester after the draining first trimester and before i got too big and had reduced mobility and again tired from anemia. This is what i should have done earlier instead of struggling through the final month of pregnancy preparing our room and all the other items and tasks.

[@jenniferr4738]

Where is Eloise’s big dress from? :) love the kids clothes and would love to see where they are from!

[@funkycoldmedina29]

I was curious if you could tell me your wall & door color!?(: sooo pretty together!

[@stersss]

Hey Delilah! I hope you are doing well! I was wondering, did you manage to find your wedding ring with all this decluttering? I was hoping you might find it in a corner tucked away 🤞🤞 In any case, good luck 💜

[@TheMennomilist]

Decluttering is one of my favorite things. Question, why do you have so many hangers in your first closet you showed in this video? Are there usually clothes on them or no? Is it weird that my kids each have just a pair of flip flops and a pair of sneakers and that's it (and it's been that way up through their teen years)? I looked for boots this year, but our snow did not stick more than a day ever. I am glad that you showed your mud room as it is. It was fun to watch how you sorted things in there. The jars and baskets look great. I LOVE it. We had our kids clothes in their closet stored similarly to what you are doing now too, but recently we got them a dresser because my oldest son wears men's sizes now and they weren't fitting in the closet storage unit any longer O.o Loving this series!

[@biancabosch5372]

She said that's the place where guests hang their jacket. Maybe it's empty when there are no guests

[@TheMennomilist]

@@biancabosch5372 Thank you.
