Declutter 10X Faster Using the Threshold Method

[@jennyjenkins877]

♥ I'm more overwhelmed at the thought of tackling our entry closet than looking at how cluttered it is. I'm planning on doing some serious deep cleaning this month so it will happen but probably over the course of several days, section by section.

Great idea! Thanks for sharing 💕

Try to take everything out and what doesn't fit properly get rid of or find a new spot.

I recently watched your rule of three video and have started implementing it. It totally works and looks so good

[@HINTEX-z8v]

The rule of three is a great technique for creating balance and visual appeal in design! It’s simple yet effective in helping to establish harmony and structure.

[@minimalease]

So glad it’s working for you! 💕 really helps me too!!

I think we all have those Target baskets!

[@minimalease]

They have changed the game for me! And are so sturdy! 👏👏

[@madelinegutzmann]

[@minimalease]

Thanks for sharing this Becky, your videos are always so helpful 😊 I'm feeling completely overwhelmed at the moment & feel like getting rid of everything which just isn't practical 😜 I took another bag of donations to the charity shop today ( bag number 23 since September last year) & am already looking for more to let go of as I'm so done with the stuff & have realised that I really need to highly simplify my spaces ❤️

[@minimalease]

23 bags! That’s awesome 👏 I love that feeling and knowing you’re slowly making your life so much easier 😍 thanks for sharing!

[@HINTEX-z8v]

It sounds like you’re making great progress with simplifying your space! Letting go of items can be incredibly freeing, and it’s amazing that you’ve been consistent with your donations.

[@rebeccasaunders2657]

Thank you, it really is freeing & I feel so much less overwhelmed with everything that leaves my home 💪🙌😊

I recently tackled our entryway closet! It was awful. I took everything out and mopped the floor. I left it empty with two wooden hangers. It’s a good feeling to hang up a coat!

❤❤❤ love this. Thank you !

[@minimalease]

Thanks for sharing! 💕

Just curious- did you say the dog diapers were for when your dog is outside?

[@minimalease]

No haha if I did it was a slip up haha he’s almost 14 and the past few months he has needed them when he’s inside 💕

[@gailwhite8796]

I’m not clear on what is the threshold method. Is it my emotional threshold for clutter? Is it the limit of the container? I’m not getting how this method is different or 10X faster than just a normal method of emptying a closet and only putting back some of the stuff. I watched the whole video twice and feel so dumb, I’m just not getting it. I’d be very grateful if someone could explain or point me to the place in the video that explains it. Thank you!❤

[@user-ry1vi1jc7o]

I'm not quite sure either. I think she's identifying emotions attached to how full the container is, but I'm not really sure. That's my best guess, ha ha.

[@minimalease]

Doing it step by step with me I thought would be clear but I can do another video where I just talk about each step for those confused. Sketch out your space so you can better visualize, take out what is in the space (big or small space), sort it, then use the container rule to help you acknowledge you have a finite amount of space and you only put back the most important and necessary. Decide if the storage is working for you or if something else is necessary, put things back and live with it and see what is working or not, declutter the rest. Basic but really helped me having steps when I was decluttering.

[@gailwhite8796]

@ thanks for the explanation, I get it now☺️

[@lindabourketempleton4040]

Aren’t your feet cold if it’s cold outside?

[@minimalease]

Like do I wear socks inside? Yea sometimes 👍 my feet don’t tend to get too cold though unlike the rest of me haha I have always been someone who preferred being barefoot

[@lindabourketempleton4040]

@ you have such lovely Ugg boots but have bare feet

[@lindabourketempleton4040]

There are three baskets on top shelf not two

[@minimalease]

Now there are your right 👍 I added one recently for our games we love for game night

[@lindabourketempleton4040]

@ I seen that later in the video 🤣
