Messy To Minimal | EXTREME DECLUTTER

[@kendallnorton2017]

Do you make Weston come into the rooms and see all the work you’ve done? Every time I overhaul a space, I go grab my husband and basically give him a tour of all the stuff I’ve cleaned, thrown out, etc. 😅 I need the affirmation to justify the effort and I don’t feel like he fully understand how much work it was otherwise 😂 you did such a good job again! I love this series!

[@annanesting9848]

I also do that ! 🙄😂

[@whisperingbeauty]

I do this too haha. First I ask my husband if he noticed what I changed. 😂

[@AA-fz3lj]

Yes!!!!

[@marie-soleildobie984]

Yes!!! Otherwise I have the feeling he thinks I wasn't really "Working" 😳😂

[@monica_30]

I do the same with my husband 😆

[@melissarios4731]

You should really consider preserving the dress. Is a little expensive but they display it in a box and they make it look beautiful. And they guarantee 100 years of it not turning yellow.

[@LoveLeeMeJenny]

🌸 When my sister was about five she decluttered stuff from her room to be stored in the attic. A few years later the bags were brought down to be sorted and we found a "mummified" apple core among her things. 🍏 😂

[@paulajulias5333]

Like, i'm gonna need this 🤣

[@marie-soleildobie984]

OMG 😳😂😂😂😂😂😂 I love the Word mommified 😅😈

[@EmmaAppleBerry]

A banana in my car was essentially dehydrated in the australian summer to the point that it became mummified it was so far beyond food that it wasnt soft or gross it was just like hard solid banana if it werent shrunken the peel solid black and shriveled i wouldve been horrified but my car always smelt amazing and not artificial or anything like just fresh and yummy like walking into a bakery but less sweet and more just nice and my god ive honestly been tempted on more than one occasion to put a banana under the seat on purpose. (Fyi i always havea couple pices of fruit or a bag of nuts in my car vsnter console area and my cars old so theres no like container like center console its legit just the hand brake no cupholders nothing so it fell when i turned the car or something between the side of the seat and wedged itself in the seat mover mechanism so it didnt move at all. It was honestly amazing a fossilised banana is amazing and i had a little coconut scent palm tree so i thought it was the coconut tropical smell giving it that fruity wonderful smell 😂😂😂 for reference this was my first car and still is and so i was the only one driving and my car was legit spotless besides the one fossilised banana so i never had to clean it and therefore never had to ya know look under seats or even sit in the back etc i think i ended up finding it cause my water bottle rolled under the passenger seat so i physically had to shove my head down there imagine my surprise haha 🍌🍌🍌

[@TheKseniyaaaaa]

Hello Natalie! My name is Kseniya, I am from Russia. I just love watching your videos, they help me to get my inspiration not only for cleaning but for keeping a good level of my English too. I raise a bilingual child and watch your videos frequently just to learn some new words or remember the ones I forgot. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us !

[@HollehhMarie]

You finding the apple was probably the most relatable thing I've ever seen in my life 😂😂😂

[@kimmg6]

Same 🤣

[@danielleshockey1816]

Yes!

[@angelapla1]

Yep!

[@reneemaccrimman5099]

I love your reactions to finding misc stuff in the rooms. I can relate lol.

[@subbimadhavan5561]

Natalie--I would love to see the wedding dress video. As a someone who is LOW KEY obsessed with Say Yes to the Dress (would love a Nat episode of that)

[@SpringHuangMusic]

Oh please make a video about your wedding dress!!! Would love to hear the story behind! 😄😄🥰🥰

[@CampbellHolli]

🌺 My daughter wanted to say HI! She is 7 and loves watching your Messy to Minimal series. We have only seen 2 so far, but plan to watch more once we are done with school and can start doing some messy to minimal work of our own!

[@elizagrace844]

Aw! I love that nursing basket idea. So precious

[@samh9528]

I just have to say I love the way you said to Hailey "if you want to get married." I feel like so many parents expect their children to get married and have "traditional families" one day and I think not putting that expectation on kids is so important 💕

[@beccismith4454]

I love the little girl antics in the background as you are giving your final minutes! 😃 🩰

[@lindatalbot3208]

I love that you have just 2 types of toys in here- dolls and kitchen. No random stuff! So easy to tidy up. I'm guessing there is more elsewhere in the house but keeping it simple in her room is the way to go! Well done!

[@Bethprincess]

🌸 can't believe I've watched all of these. They are amazingly motivating!

[@sabrinagraham7794]

I LOVE that you dress Hailey in dresses!! It’s so refreshing to see little girls in dresses and looking like little girls!! She’s precious and I’m loving this series!!

[@audlysimple]

I love how when you opened the closet she is dressed up sitting there!!! 💕 my girls have so much stuff in the there room! I need to do this to my whole place!!!!!

[@catharinabra]

Omg the apple 🍏 🙈 yes, my kids totally did that ALL the time. And also tasting one bite out of every apple in the fruitbowl

[@felixmelissaespinoza3767]

🌸 Absolutely love your outfit in this video 😊 you are always dressed cute but I especially noticed this one 👍🏼 I am SO glad that you are genuine with everything but especially when you are real about re-organizing or re-doing stuff several times!! I love decluttering videos and organizing videos as God knows I need a ton of help there!! However, I was often finding myself getting discouraged when I didn’t have “correct” the first way I tried it. As well as when I wanted to buy everything my eyes 👀 saw for organizing but had to remind myself that storage bins/unit were not THE answer! I’m so glad I found your channel! Bless you and yours! God Bless All!!

[@saramarieiker9918]

🌸 I have been obsessed with this series!! My daughter is due in July, and her being my first baby my spare room has just accumulated so much over the past few years. We have just thrown things in there to get them out if the way. This series seriously gave me the motivation to tackle that space while I'm quarantined at home! Now it's ready to welcome my little girl in a few months❤

[@annamorales8473]

🌸 I'm really loving this series, it's so satisfying for me watching you getting rid of unused cluttered stuff. I also admire you as you find your strength and system with the decluttering, it makes me quite anxious when I'm in a messy room surrounded by a bunch of stuff and I simply don't know where to begin.

[@sulmaoropeza7848]

Wow I’m so inspired. I saw all of minimal series. Thank you for being real. Your wedding dress is gorgeous. Maybe if you folded it into a space vacuum bag it would fit better in your chest and be protected. I was waiting for you to put it on! Your daughter really wanted to put on in that moment. She’s so girly and I see she likes to change her outfits often. I love your chest so beautiful! Your music was calming yet energetic in all your videos. I liked that! You won’t have more children for you can save the baby items in the garage. I like the idea of having a set up for nursing mom guests. I would use that small table and brass stool in your room with your make up collection on top. It has great memories why not put it to good use. Your daughter is too young to value it. 🌸

[@wendyphillips5660]

Your wedding dress is stunning.... I just splurged your messy to minimal series and it was the best I have seen so far. Thank you for all the motivation.

[@yamilexcalderon1972]

🌸🌸🌸 i felt that on a spiritual level when you said “ im gonna close that cause its stressing me out right now” 😩🤣😭

[@Time-AN-toreal-1]

The no fold system is a lifesaver! It makes my children so less stressed and me much less stressed in knowing they can just throw their clothing in their designated areas instead of me doing all the laundry work. And they feel so proud afterward. 😊

[@bethurbani3057]

🌸 ironically it wasn’t today but on Friday I was motivated by these videos so I completely cleaned and organized my room. Thank you for all your motivation and posting these videos!

[@chelseyweber8089]

Hailey's birthday always reminds me how long I've been a subscriber! The "I'm in Labor" video was one of the first ones I was notified about. I'd seen her gender reveal in a fun KZbin gender reveal binge watching spree when my husband and I were in the beginning stages of trying for our first. I came back and subscribed and now I have a 4 month old son so I like to go back to rewatch your baby videos for helpful tips. Thank you! And happy almost birthday, Hailey! 🥳

[@jenwrenredmcmoore880]

🌺 🌸Thanks for taking us on the journey with you

[@megannull3569]

I love your welcome basket for nursing mothers that visit. What a great idea!

[@creed5c]

I’ve been binging your episodes! During the pandemic I’ve been going through my ENTIRE house and decluttering/minimizing and it feels amazing to be rid of all the junk!

[@mahitharaghuram8569]

This is my fave episode of the series! I love how Hailey was by your side along the process! I'm sure she will pick up all this and be very organized as she grows up! 😊

[@AvengedSteffifold]

🌸 I’m loving this series! I’ve watched all of them multiple times

[@NatalieBennett]

Oh how cool! Thanks for watching. I'm so glad you're enjoying this series! 🌸

[@averagejosephine5544]

Apples, everywhere! My son is also obsessed with apples but only moderately concerned with finishing them.

[@lpnffchick]

Have you ever thought about taking some tips from a Montessori ‘playroom/bedroom’? I feel you are very close and have that mind set in general but perhaps this would help with all the toys. Having just a few items out vs all out at once which can help the kids feel less overwhelmed and allows you to rotate out toys. Having things set up beautifully vs in a bin- you are such an inspiration lol!!! I rando cleaned when we went on lockdown and it continues lol

[@rebekahwilson2004]

New to your channel and bingeing the minimal series. I just gotta say, I love that you told your daughter, IF you want to get married.

[@NatalieBennett]

I always appreciated when my parents put it this way so I hope my kids do too! ♥️

[@hannahbentson9374]

🌸 I’m loving this series! We’ve been watching it every Monday morning! It really helps me get motivated. Just cleaned my kitchen while watching this episode.

[@somanyplusme7437]

I am rewatching this series while I try to get my house back under control. I’m going through my kids clothes

[@kacilindsay8880]

I have watched every video in this series and am loving them! They have really helped motivate me to get my own home clean and de-cluttered. I went through our hall closet over the weekend and will be working on our master bath cabinets this evening :D I will say, I've been looking forward this to this video the most though because I enjoy getting to see how other mama's organize their toddler girl's rooms. I have a 2 year old little girl who's room needs to be gone through so badly and this video has given me inspiration for what we can do in there! Especially in that closet of hers....

[@lauracecchini2511]

Thanks natalie. I love watching your videos and it's a great distraction right now. You're so positive and calming to watch. Maybe you could do a video on how you're managing to stay positive at a time like this. Thanks again for your great content.

[@amandagraupmann9347]

I just started watching you and your family thank you for sharing, and sharing your family with us.

[@danabrown2391]

So well done, and the boy's room too! And your pantry was fantastic! Now I have to go watch your other decluttering videos!

[@magickaldust1213]

The apple made me laugh so hard, definitely relatable!

[@ClaireDeLune2848]

Your wedding dress moment was so sweet! (and yes, it's a stunning dress!). My mom gave me a hope chest too, although she didn't wait until I was married to do so - I got it when I moved out of the house after college. It's one of my favorite possessions because she'd filled it with things she knew I'd need in my adult life. So sweet!

[@NatalieBennett]

Aww how sweet! I got mine on my 16th birthday and filled it with things for the future and diaries and such!

[@suicydeblonde]

My almost 3yo is soooo much like Hayley! I am always saying "get down" LOL

[@jsblake199]

What a BEAUTIFUL dress!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@happiest.northwest]

Natalie, you are so so inspirational!! I've been decluttering as well during this time of isolation. Catch you later!! 💕🌲

[@NatalieBennett]

Doesn't it feel so great to put this time to good use?!?!?! 💕

[@happiest.northwest]

@@NatalieBennett Absolutely! I am also inspired to do some landscaping too. I've been loving the weather here lately in the PNW!! 🌲😎

[@rebeccavargo1804]

🌸 This was so encouraging because I have so many years of clothes and toys to go through!

[@nicholemaclean1888]

I was sorting out my 18 month old/4 year old daughters clothes yesterday and the littlest had quite a few layers on in a variety of sizes and of course huge shoes 😂 so cute!

[@allheartandsong]

Bi Mart has inexpensive foam egg crate toppers. You can cut it to size. My kids have one on their beds and it makes a huge difference

[@NatalieBennett]

Mary W yes! We put one on Hailey’s crib but she still didn’t sleep well. Last week we switched her to a twin bed on a Lull mattress and she has been sleeping like a dream!!!!

[@kelliconlan8133]

I got my wedding dress for $75!!, brand new. It was originally over almost $700 at the bridal shop I bought it at. I love a good deal!!!

[@beverlyschroeder5573]

🌸You are an inspiration...keep smiling.

[@marljustmurr]

🌺! This is the video I've been waiting for. I am so ready to tackle my own daughter's room now! Thanks Natalie!

[@julievw6520]

I missed much of what you said in your outro.... As I was distracted by your little cutie in the background!! 😉💜 She was very cute in the rest of the video too!

[@RelatableMotherhood]

Aaaaand now I'm gonna go clean and organize my kids room 💕 thanks for the inspiration!!

[@NatalieBennett]

Yay! You’re so welcome

[@MarshaBenne]

The Apple oh my goodness lol. I don’t mean this rude at all, I always assumed your books and crannies were clean. I am really enjoying this series!! 🌸

Oh no maam! They used to be but with three very independent kids, I find all sorts of surprises!

[@laurabarkovitz55]

🌸 congratulations on all of the progress you have made!

[@robinjones394]

It’s good that you are teaching your kids to declutter when they are little... you may still run into problems in the tween into teen age... my son has a very neat room... even when he was little, we picked up toys after using them and pu5 them away every afternoon and evening... But...... my son has always been a collector (and has always loved his small action figures over larger ones...)... my son Scott also has some autistic traits and has SPD - sensory processing disorder.. part of that is that he hates change so he has always been an easy kid to buy for when it comes to toys.... he loved Star Wars and collected and played with every single small action figure from the movies and tv shows... he has about 150... My hubby would super glue all the accessories onto the characters hands, dead’s, etc... we battled (played) with them every day... if I ever threw out one of those action figures he would have been crushed... lol... he also loved play mobile knights and castles, etc... Thankfully as he got older we were able to donate things like books that were too young for him, toys he didn’t like, etc... I’m glad you like more than a minimal amount of books! Me, my hubby and my son are all readers... I highly recommend Play Mobile brand toys.. great quality.. thanks for the motivation... I’m the messy one in our house..lol..

Hi, I also have an old hope chest, beautiful piece to keep. I took the latch off mine because when it latches there is no way to open it from the inside, so if a kiddo ever played hide and go seek and climbed in, she would be stuck. I heard a horrible story once about this once so I wanted to pass it along. Thank you for your videos; I’m inspired to declutter along with you!

[@NatalieBennett]

I keep mine locked!!!

[@lfuentes4098]

🌸That’s a beautiful dress. Maybe consider buying a non yellowing bag to put it in or have it preserved in a box then put into your chest. I have had things stored in a chest and they yellow. I think it’s the tannins in the wood. Doesn’t usually come out. 😬
