Organizing Mira's Scrapbook Room, part 3 - finally finished?

This is part 3 of the enormous task of organizing Mira's scrapbook room. If you haven't seen part 1 or 2, you can find those here:
• Organizing a mountain ...
• Organizing Mira's Scra...
This video with cover days 5 and 6 of working on the scrapbook room, where we finally "finish." There is still a lot to do, but it is now a more open, decluttered, and organized space than it was before and Mira can finally use this room as it was meant to be used instead of hauling everything to her kitchen table to work on a project.
Thanks for joining us on this Scrapbook Room series!

Mira could use the money from selling the scrap book stuff to buy herself a Berkey water filter. She would save so much money in the long run, reduce so much plastic use and still have clean drinking water!

[@annrae1597]

Plus she wouldn't be getting harmful chemicals from the water bottles.

[@suredeydo]

The best idea! What a gift for her health this would be 🥰

[@mariwillalwaysgivethanks]

Those Berkeys are a great asset to have.👍

[@extrememinimalism]

And, would help he keeping the place tidy!!

[@mandyburns-iy7lx]

I agree, have already suggested that to Mira.

[@juliannaboldt7152]

As a crafter myself I can only imagine the joy Mira must have now that she has her space back. Amazing job!

[@artcreationsbydar]

Wow! I thought I had stuff! Incredible clean out! Once this is organized, wow, will she be happy! :)

[@mnmomify]

She has more inventory than my local Michael's. I hope she continues to create with all those supplies.

[@mehtarelingolien]

30 years of dedication to this hobby.... I think she's allowed to have as much as she does. As long as she has the space to put it all and periodically goes through her stash to eliminate what she will not use, I think she will be just fine.

[@ooakartwithlindaE]

It is my opinion that collecting art supplies and using them are two completely different hobbies. It looked to me like she tried to be organized but her supply-collecting hobby got ahead of her supply-using hobby. LOL Great job helping her get organized. Now she can actually spend time making things.

[@LB-ht1qk]

I am guilty of buying art supplies especially if I find them on sale! I have a BASKETFUL of different size sketch pads! Sheesh! I am acutely aware of it now and have been working on replacing my "hobby" of shopping with my "hobby" of drawing /painting!

[@terryhenderson424]

​@@LB-ht1qkYes, there comes a time to look at the "stuff" you own and make using it an emphasis. It could be sketch books or any other category of supply/ material in which ever craft(s) you do. When using up stash, I give myself permission to do projects that have absolutely no use or purpose in my life. I either gift this stuff to those I know or to a charitable type organization (Christmas gift drives and requests from the community are great for this.)

[@GotMySnarkyNanaPantsOn]

Sometimes part of the joy in crafting is in finding new and different things to work with, for me anyway. I work with yarn so the struggle to not buy more is hard. Luckily for me my economic circumstances restrict me somewhat otherwise I would need a football oval for a room to stash my crafting supplies.

[@missmustache4207]

Best part about finally getting your craft room together is the floor space and vacuuming it.

[@melissatarbell5410]

I truly believe people need to not judge other people by what they spend their money on unless they see people or animals going hungry or in need of something in the home. It's nobody's business and this her joy-the things that make her happy and proud so please stop giving unsoliciated opinions and notice how happy Mira and her fur babies are.

[@amara560]

I think scolding the individual is not the solution, but I do think we should be free to speak up about excessive overconsumption like this in general, because it is destroying the world we live in. Which means not harassing people when they are already making changes to their habits and bettering themselves. We can't do anything about things that are already bought, so that is a moot point. It's better if no new supplies come in and you use what you have in that case.

Put some of the bags in your car! That’s when I use them. And see if a teacher wants them. We have to send things home with students without backpacks or needing additional carrying space. Many Title 1 schools send food home with students and could use bags. Same with food pantries.

I think when she first showed her scrapbook room she said the "A"s in her room (on the shelf) are because of the first letter of her name

What amazes me in addition to the wonderful progress you both made, is that as you clean and organize more and more and as time progresses, we see more and more of her doggies coming to visit you both in the craft room!

[@kathykramer6267]

Once your room is all organized you will be the happiest scrapper on the planet!!! Great accomplishment! I’m happy for you! My scrap table gets out of control sometimes…the best organization tip for me is that after every layout I create, I put all tools,etc back in place. It saves time trying to find everything making the next project.

I actually attended a Paper Crafters Get Organized summit this weekend. Everyone organizes according to their how their brain works. I sort by theme (music, sports, holidays, etc) and by color, like kind with like kind. If you're a papercrafter it is always a work in progress.

[@katiblue]

I’m lowkey tempted to get into paper crafting just for the joy of organizing it. I’m not creative and don’t wanna USE it. But oooh, it would have been fun to organize! I would have loved to do this project with Bonnie and Mira (I definitely don’t have Bonnie’s stamina!).

Your generosity is endless - your wish to help people gives me faith in humanity. You spent - how much was that - over sixty maybe closer to eighty hours of hard hard work - back bent - going through someone's else's emotional back-log to help them move forward and do things in their life which they love. You are such a good person - you did an amazing job. A job which would have cost far above $25k - just to have people come in and shovel things into a skip would have cost that - but to sit and put hundreds of thousands of items together to enable the homeowner to sort through them - then to put those into some organisation - there is no cost for that - there's no one who wouldn't put such a high price on that service that it would be completely out of reach for all. You did an amazing job - bless you!

I'm 2 years new to scrapbooking and it's been a challenge to stay organized, even though I'm constantly putting things away, rearranging products, and labeling.

This was a fabulous organization effort!!

[@suewilkinson910]

Bonnie you are SO good at sorting all this small stuff. And it was very satisfying to watch once the pile in the middle of the room started to shrink a bit. It was a bit scary at first! I think Mira should take stall at a scrap booking exhibition and sell some of it. Not to get rid of it, but because I think she'd love talking to everyone browsing her collection of items for sale and making the sales. She obviously loves the "items" needed to do this hobby and she's experienced so much of it that she it probably pretty much expert. It's a shame not to share that knowledge and love. Anyway, she probably couldn't think of anything worse, but in my mind I have her sat behind her pretty stall at a craft sale. 😃 I wish I could beam you up and drop you into my utility room or spare room and shut the door. I'd throw in treats and snacks from time to time and abracadabra! They would be sorted without the pain. Yesterday I spent all day at my mum's old home. I'm in the final stages of the clearance for sale (we now have a buyer so I have to speed up) and I admit that the end stage of clearing a home of 65 years, a house I was actually born in, is getting very hard for me. I was fine earlier on with the bulk of the clutter and possessions. But now, I'm down to the nitty gritty and I just don't know what to do with it. I am fighting myself hard all the time not to bring it home. So it's dad's tool box with some very old tools in it. But I have my own tool boxes with my own tools in. I don't need more. I spent a lot of time yesterday sitting stressing or turning in literal circles with bin bags or boxes in my hands. I think it's the hardest thing I've done and I've done it alone. There is no cheery company to talk too. I now have a man lined up to come and take the furniture and all the contents of the garage away as soon as I book him. But I have to finish getting rid of the smaller stuff too because I know I won't do well in the house on my own when it's totally empty. I'm having to try to keep the garden tidy too and this spring has been so wet that vegetation is growing like crazy. All in all I'm stressed by it. I watch your videos and gain some calm back. But I finished this one at 6:30am because I suddenly bolted awake from sleep with anxiety running high and I needed to escape it if I could. Thank you Bonnie, I might try for another hour in bed now.

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

I wish you could beam me up and drop me there to help you as well. Sounds like you could use a hand! And I will happily run on treats and snacks! 😁 That's got to be really difficult getting down to all of the little things. Probably a lot of memories. I know, when my parents moved from the house I grew up in, it was really hard to know that I wouldn't be able to visit the home I grew up in. And they only I lived there for 32 or 33 years, so about half the time you're mum lived in hers, so I can only imagine how difficult that must be, and especially if you are tackling that on your own. I'm happy to know that my videos bring you a little sense of calm...except for the hoarder house, but we won't talk about that, haha! Good luck to you and getting the rest cleared out and getting it sold. It's hard to end those long chapters of your life. I'll be thinking of you!🙏💕

As someone who loves cleaning and organizing other people's spaces whenever the opportunity presents itself, I love vicariously experiencing it through your content, and this chock to the brim scrapbooking room has been amazing. I used to scrapbook before finding minimalism, and it's crazy how easy it is to fall into this situation, and I'm super proud of all Mira's hard work to turn things around and yours to help her do it. Also, thank you for mentioning the smoke detector, as I at first thought it was one of mine, and you saved me having to hunt it down 😂

[@mariwillalwaysgivethanks]

Poor baby Colt , he has a memory of a traumatic situation. I have a rescued cat that I got as a kitten. He runs at the sight of blankets; plastic bags, bags, towels. I think he remembers being captured as a feral kitten. Every time I walk into the room with one of those objects; I talk calmly to him so he is not traumatized. He's slowly learning these things are not a threat! You did the right thing removing it! Thank you for understanding his feelings! 🥰 I think Mira is going to have to gift a lot of that away or make bundles and sell them on Ebay, garage sales. That is a HUGE collection!

[@nancythomas1954]

You made her so happy! You two busted out that room and it looks wonderful! Her puppies are adorable and full of no good LOL Her channel is fun, her happiness is contagious. You are so getting better at this yourself and you are almost at 50K!!! I will share this hon in hopes it brings you more interest. Hope this finds you having a wonderful day!

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

You are so kind! Thanks so much, Nancy!!🙏💖

I would love to see a video from you helping Mira to organize and host a yard sale for her supplies that she’s getting rid of.

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

I think she decided that a yard sale might not be the way to go. She might actually do an auction type thing with her viewers, which would be cool. She's still trying to decide how to go about it.

[@msjamiec092666]

WOW! Amazing.....makes me want to tackle my stuff!

[@anitakling7141]

Im a new subscriber and I previously posted in either the kitchen or bathroom cleaning. I am at a loss for words to see what you have done for Mira. I can't wait to see her creativity flourish now that her things are organized. I wish you so much success. The gift of helping her so selflessly will come back to you. twentyfold, I'm overwhelmed and its not even me. ;). Blessings!!!

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Thank you so much! I already feel very blessed for helping others. I've learned a lot about the types of things other people suffer with and it makes me grateful for the things I have. Thank you for watching and for your support!🥰

[@kayethiel9912]

Mira could open a shop 😮

[@TishaGillett]

Wooooowwwwww!!! That before and after! Talk about rejuvinating for the soul! 😍 Nicely done, laides.👏

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Thanks, Tish!

[@deborahramirez3445]

You are so kind, respectful, and fantastic at your job. I'm so glad you are helping her organize her happy place. It has been so satisfying watching your videos.

I think Colt is adorable and reminds me of a young goat!! 😂🤣😂

[@LB-ht1qk]

My nephew has a dog like Colt and I had to laugh because his dog acts just like Colt! Loved it!

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Yeah, he's crazy!😅💖

A lot of stores are not giving out bags anymore. Or if you don’t bring your own bags they are charging you for them And some stores are paying you to bring your own bags. So we use ours then put them back in our cars. You do a wonderful job job. Also love the dog and the water bottle.

[@alicebutton6240]

I think you are amazing ! You are so patient and kind. I have been decluttering my home and you give me so much drive to get more done. I wish I could hire you to help me . God bless you my friend. 🙂

[@franciemontgomery2935]

I just discovered your channel and I really appreciated seeing your kindness, patience and understanding towards Mira. ❤

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Thank you so much! And welcome!💕

[@lauraharshbarger9486]

You are going to know soooo much about scrapbooking when you are done lol

😍 the bonus footage! As a kid I sorted pencils in order of colour. It made me feel calm and happy. As a late diagnosed woman with autism, I've since then heared of another woman these are typically autistic quirks and I'm totally fine with that! Also your dog and her scratching, it made me laugh and itchy myself! 😆

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

You are welcome! And welcome to the late diagnosed autistic club! It explains so many things, doesn't it?! After I got my diagnosis last October, everything about my life started to make more sense and I am now finding all of "my people" out there in the world who get me and my weird quirky things I do. And, yes, sorting things like this has always been very calming to me. I think I just like making order out of chaos.😁

[@ThumbprintCreationsbyKerry]

I make junk journals and quilts and custom one of a kind crafts…. Totally relate on how to sort and organize my stuff. I haven’t been doing this as long as Mira so I have maybe half her amount, but my room isn’t very big. But I’m watching you sort the paper and am drooling over the “pretties” 😂

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Haha..."pretties." Yep, that's about right. So fun to see all the beautiful stuff!

[@gemmacgregor4505]

I love all the cute storage boxes and bags she has. I don't scrapbook but I swear I would love to go to her house and pay her to teach me. I am currently sorting through all my pictures. I am putting my childhood together. My kids alone then together etc.

[@petralee8792]

You beatyfull wonderwemen love how it turned out . Mira got her space back how great for her.Bonny thanks for being you and being so a nice person.Thanks for the video. Love love love to you and yours and also for Mira and her furry sweat babys

[@marriedagain2008]

I would have been to entertained by the dogs to get anything done. They are so funny. Sad this has come to an end. Another collab with Mack will be so fun!

[@shelleyvanhouten27]

Amazing!! These were the first videos I’ve watched of yours….. AS I was decluttering my own Play room! I even liked watching you fold laundry! Thank you so much. I subscribed!

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Aw, thank you, Shelley! I'm so glad you're here!💞🙏

[@Martina_BCJdesign]

That's an amazing craft room! From an artist to an artist, I'd have so much fun there!!! 🤣🎉 Wishing you happy crafting Mira. You guys did an amazing job. Thank you Bonnie for being Bonnie. All the best guys!

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@wendyeskelin8765]

Wow, thousands and thousands of decisions made along the way! And tons of organizing decisions. I'm glad Mira is letting go of a lot of things. She still has so many choices in which to scrapbook, and now lots of room. Plus I don't think she'll have to entice the dogs with Cheerio's anymore to get them to come in.

[@cassiab28]

I thought I was subscribed, and I realized I was not when you mentioned doing so in the video 🙃 quickly fixed that!

[@lisbethkelsey6622]

Thank you Marie and Jane, how sweet of you!!!
