@@danniraearranged You're doing great with this mudroom. I recently did our front porch this spring (same thing as a mudroom.... now that I think about it, I have no idea why we call it a porch... anyway, it was the same sort of space for me, our "catch all" for random things that we had no idea what to do with and items I had already decluttered but never took out of the house. Before I moved my desk and plants in I gave in a coat of white paint...... oh the different that made having that clean slate to work with. It's my plant room / kid free/pet free zone (though the cats and dogs think it's their room lol), and whether I am working, or just sitting there in silence with my morning coffee that space has made all the difference in lifting my mood, and helped me be more productive and overall in a better mood. I am so looking forward to this space of yours giving you that feeling too :)

[@beckyj.odonnell2385]

I can totally relate to you and your “off day” today. I have gotten rid of so much stuff. Then look around and feel overwhelmed that I still have too much that I need to go through. Thanks for letting me know I’m not alone feeling this way, it’s ok and I can keep making progress

I'm proud of you for the pineapple 🍍 that's been moving around. I've always said get rid of things when your ready and girl you were ready 👏👏👏

[@danniraearranged]

Oh my gosh you are so spot on! I was way ready to let that pineapple go, I just needed to follow my instincts. It was actually at that part when I was editing the video that I realized the hesitation and then I realized that I've hesitated on that pineapple for example so many times but didn't hesitate on the candle holder. Im slowly starting to recognize my decision making process. And thank you so much, I can't tell you enough how much that means to me. Always so happy to see you here!!!

[@Sweetgotham]

I feel like switching the scrip might help. You struggle so many times trying to justify why you should keep something or coming up with new uses when instead you can try making the item justify itself to *you*. Example: would you buy it right now? If not, why would you keep it?

Hello! I'm new to your channel , I've been watching alot of decluttering videos since I realised my need to try and take back some control since having kids, it's wild! I just wanted to say it's the best video I've watched in ages. The decision making, the justifying, progress reports! It's like watching Disney's 'Inside out' with your different emotions! With other decluttering videos they make it look easy with simple steps but your struggle with this makes it real and your clarity of your achievement is a motivation. Thank you! I've subscribed x

[@jillneer7305]

When it comes to decluttering clothes or keeping: stains seem to appear years later that you didn't realize were there, elastic breaks down & falls apart after time, & styles change. And I've found my kids don't really care about or want most things I think are sentimental.

[@mkel858]

I was going to say that we were keeping grandchildren clothes for when they had kids but your right stains show up and elastic breaks down so we just got rid of them we kept one outfit to put in a shadow box to display🤷‍♀️ and sentimental items I've just kept one of each and still have them displayed my daughter made when she was in grammar school she's 44 now lol!

I’m always so fascinated with how people talk in different parts of the U.S. I watch documentaries and do dialect quizzes that pin point to where you’re from just by how you say certain things and what you call certain things. I’m from the South (Mobile, Alabama) and there are so many different dialects even in that region! Like I can tell if someone is from the Carolinas vs Alabama just by their twang in their voice. It’s so interesting! I love it! ❤️

[@wendystahlke]

You could get a trunk for each one of the kids and for you Danni and put some of the sentimental items in there with some of their school stuff,photos etc so they can have it when they get older! When their older they will love to see it all I know I did looking back on some of my own kids school work and things they made.

Maybe she is a visual person and needs to see, what she has. The she should take the doors of the cupboards. You are still right.

[@danniraearranged]

I am actually thinking that I may have enough room to place my cleaning products under the sink, I wanted to place my garbage and recycling bins underneath the kitchen sink vs them sitting out under the counter, so i have to get smaller ones, I wasnt sure if the cleaning products would fit under there with the bins so I placed the shelf and cleaners in the mudroom, but I think now with having less cleaners and I got bins that I think are big enough to hold items but small enough to also place my cleaners back under there. I honestly prefer them under the sink! thank you so much for watching and being here with me, ALWAYS so HAPPY to see you here!!!

[@tinawatson5866]

Also, lol, just wanted to say I’m right there with you on having a hard time letting go of things I can see ‘potential’ in and/or crafting supplies. I love to craft and have done everything with paint, tiles, scrapbook paper, mod podge, sewing , cross stitch, knitting & crochet… I moved almost a year ago from a house I’d been in for 10 years and ended up letting go of a lot knowing i wouldn’t have room in the smaller house I moved to, but still brought totes with me that are stacked with no place to put them lol. Trying to organize and find an accessible place for me supplies just recently, I realized that much of what I had I really probably will never need/use again because my season of life has shifted along with my likes/needs and desires (and that whole Intentionalism I’m going thru) so now I have totes of supplies I’m giving to my grandkids for them to create with 😊 I’ve limited myself to my paints, select cross stitch, my Cricut and select yarn projects .

Danni, I can totaly see the difference in your decision making. You got rid of the pineapple!!!! Yeah!!! I could tell you were struggling in the beginning of the video, but you pushed through. Your mud room is looking good girl. On your brooms, mops, I would hang them on the wall of the room, so that they one can't fall down and two, it would be easier to get them. I have a hold thing(not sure what to call it, it's one of those that pinches onto the item; hope that makes sense) in my pantry on the wall that holds my duster, broom and mop. As far as the boundaries on the diy stuff, putting dates on them was a good idea. Also like you said only get stuff that you know for certain you will diy. I'm so proud of you!!! I could tell it was hard for you to do, but I'm sure you feel better that you got it done!!! Now do something fun in that room! Decorate it up, and make that mudroom a place you'd like to be in. Question, is that mudroom insulated? Also to brighten it up, paint the walls white or gray, just to give it it some light. Otherwise, great job girl!!!

[@danniraearranged]

That pineapple, oh my gosh I have no idea why I struggled with letting that thing go LOL it was when I was editing the video I was like...wait a minute... I hesitate when I make decisions on certain items... I then realized those are the items I put in the get rid of pile and take out of the get rid of pile or I hold into it for a period of time until eventually, finally I let it go. It really can be so difficult sometimes, its a process. It is getting easier though especially noticing how I declutter & organize. I feel SO MUCH BETTER! Although its difficult, I think back on the things Ive let go of and I dont miss any of it, not at all! GREAT idea in getting something to hold my cleaning equip. Ill go on Amazon and check them out (Ive been doing very good when it comes to Amazon, LOL being very selective lol.) You saying your proud of me 😭😭😭🥰, that seriously means so much to me! THANK YOU!

[@debbitaylor77]

[@tinawatson5866]

Dear sweet Dani, I understand how hard sentimental things are to know what to keep or do with. I have 6 kids. (Now adults ages 19-35 years old ) I learned the hard way you can’t keep everything lol. Years ago I selected 6 matching totes of a reasonable size , one for each kid (you decide what size is reasonable for you lol). I labeled each tote with child’s name . I limited myself to only keep truly sentimental/ important items for each kid that will fit inside their tote. Report cards, awards, invitations from friends bday parties. Baby book, particularly special artwork ( school clay pots, weavings , drawings ) bronzed shoes (yes, I did that for each child and they are mounted on a plaque with a picture framed of them wearing the shoes they first walked in) , a handful of baby outfits they wore that they may appreciate their own baby wearing years from now, etc. maybe just take a picture of the artwork that you want to remember but not necessarily want to hang onto for decades. Same with special outfits your children wore..find a pic of them in the outfit to keep and gift the outfit to someone to use now. As my children have gotten older, moved out and started their own families , ive given their tote of memories to move on in with them lol. Just recently, my 21 yo just got his tote and it was fun watching him go thru it and see the memories come flooding back ❤️

[@danniraearranged]

What a BRILLIANT idea! I think having a tote is such a great idea, not to mention it also creates a good boundary, something I am working on currently! Having a tote sets a boundary for us and limits us to the very special items. I think having a tote too and limiting the amount of items also makes it more special because you are choosing the absolute favorites. I seriously love this idea and I think that is exactly what I am going to do! Sentimental items are very hard for me, for sure my hardest items to declutter, thats the reason I keep putting it off and havent gone through it yet lol. But eventually I will have to go through it! Your a SUPER ROCKSTAR MOMMA! 6 kids! I bet your kids love going through there totes, I bet its emotional for mom too. Your a love!

I would put all of your cleaning products inside the house. Get rid of that shelving you had the cleaning supplies on. Get rid of the bookcase cabinet and put everything into the built-in cupboards to give yourself so much more room. Were you planning on keeping the freezer to use or no? About clothes....trust me, things somehow get discolored and ruined being stored away for years and elastic breaks down....ask me how I know. Lol....You are doing a great job. When one is starting their journey of decluttering...if it's the first time around....there are always doubts in your head on some decisions you've made. It becomes easier as time goes on. It's amazing when you have a 3rd or 4th time at it and realize some things just don't work or you don't need. It gets easier making those decisions. You've got it! :-)

regarding new items, the money is already spent! It doesn’t matter if you use it, throw it out, or donate it. The money is already spent. If you can return it or sell it, then you can get some of the money back otherwise you were out of the money. Thank of it as a lesson and do NOT beat yourself up. If you get rid of it, less clutter and you get your house back!!

I'm just getting to where I'm ready to declutter and get rid of stuff. I have so much stuff the clutter is causing me anxiety and even effecting my sleep. My issue is like you mentioned I dont like getting rid of new items or even items people gave me. I tend to buy things that are on sale and never use them and it's gotten out of control.
