Decluttering my home and life: a transformation series.

Here is a compilation video of my series, "Decluttering my Home and Life"... but stay tuned because there is definitely more to come.

To all of my supporters,

I started decluttering a few years ago, but I wasn’t too serious or consistent with my progress. Last year on November 9th, 2022, I decided to make a random decluttering video, and woah, my decluttering journey took off.

Before I made that video, I had already started filling boxes and bags of clutter, and I had decided it was time to let go of the stuff sitting around, waiting to be sold or stored somewhere else in my house.

I wanted to redecorate my home, but I had to declutter it first. I was struggling with my postpartum mental health, and I was having a tough time. I thought redecorating could help and give me something to do. With bringing in new items for my refreshed home, I knew I had to let go of equal amounts of stuff. Little did I know, I was engraining a whole new lifestyle and methods of decluttering into my brain. With every bag and box of junk I let go of, I noticed my mind was more and more free. Free of clutter and stress.

When I made that first video, I honestly don’t know why or what I was even thinking. I truly had NO idea it would blow up like it did! So, with the overwhelmingly positive support I saw from so many people, I figured I might as well keep it going! I turned it into a TikTok/Reels/Shorts series. With every box I filled and video I posted, I saw more and more comments from people. Many of them asking questions, asking for help, or thanking me for giving them the inspiration and motivation they needed. So many people simply felt UNDERSTOOD, and that was enough.

My journey started with decluttering my home and life, but it has turned into simplifying my home and life to live my absolute BEST life. Not just for myself, but for my family too.

If you have been following me from the beginning, you picked up somewhere along the way, or you are tuning in now. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. I know you say I’ve been motivating and inspiring you all, but the truth is, you’ve been motivating and inspiring ME. I just can’t thank you enough.

It hasn’t even been a full year of filming these boxes, and I know I’ve already gotten rid of so much, but I feel like this is only the beginning of my story.

I’m eager to see what the future holds for my channel, my home and life, and for all of you. Keep commenting, sharing, and tagging me in your journeys. I love to see it all!

Abbie ♥️

Abbie, you did a great job of decluttering! I am 75 yrs old and a widow and have been decluttering my home due to downsizing. I have had years of things I thought I needed to keep but a light bulb went off in my head and said to get rid of it! I don’t have paper clutter anymore and clothes have gone from three closets to one closet. It takes time but it’s worth it. Good luck in the future!🥰👍💜

I loved when you said "decluttering is a lifestyle"
So very true. I was drowning in my clutter. Way too much for my home. I began removing 10 items completely from my home each and every day. I thought it would take a year. Here I am on year 8...YES, I SAID 8....The more I get rid of, the less I want. Things I could never part with 5-7-8 years ago, I find myself asking "Why do I still have this" Sentimental items? Well, my theory on that is this. If it is sentimental enough to keep, it better be used or displayed. If not, out it goes. I am currently working on storage. I have come to the conclusion that storage is just organized clutter. If I am keeping something, it must be USED. My attic/basement will only hold seasonal clothing and holiday decor. NOTHING WILL BE STORED.
I am LOVING this journey

I love how you look at decluttering like when you get an empty box refill it with items you don't need or want

[hduulhj]

After watching your "fill a box" videos, I started leaving a box in two rooms. I keep putting things into them as I find things I don't want. I was surprised at how easy and quickly I filled them. Thank you!

[itsjanie]

This series has given me so much motivation! I hope you know how helpful these videos have been. Thank you so much. Please keep making them. 💜

[michellew]

The, “just in case” stuff. This is what gets me every time!

[crystallevin]

Loved watching this video! Over the past 4 years I have gotten rid of over 300 boxes of stuff from my home and garage. How you might ask and is there anything left in my house?

Well my family has lived in our very big house for over 20 years and we have also had multiple renters that from time-to-time would rent rooms from us. Once we had 4 renters each in separate rooms (we have 8 bedrooms). So some of the stuff was our stuff (our family's stuff) and some was random stuff left by renters (yes we asked them first before getting rid of anything).

So it can be exhausting decluttering but so worth it. No one can do this kind of thing overnight. So great that you are doing this decluttering systematically. That's the only way to win at this game.

I laughed a little at the pockets of stuff you have in your home that is sort-of theme based. We all have these hoards of things that show our true personalities. My weakness is books and I am still getting rid of a lot of books. This morning I picked up more books off of the floor where my baby kitties (ages 2 months and 3 months) decided to knock them off the bottom shelf of my bookcase. It occurred to me "Why don't you just remove all the books from the bottom shelves so that the kitties can play on the bottom shelves of your bookcases?" It might do this! Still thinking about it!

Keep up the great work! Love your videos.

I am so glad you donated to a shelter they really appreciate it.

[wendyinegbenedo]

This was the best decluttering video of all time! ❤

[mindymudge]

You done a great job
One box at a time is easiest way to go!

[cantocant]

Love this series. At 7:05 the dress you are holding matches the curtains behind you! You have done an amazing job of decluttering.

[griselleisara]

You are inspiring. I can’t believe how much stuff you had. 😂😂😂😂😂

[michelesusanne]

I do this too, I get a couple boxes each week, usually from Aldi and make a goal to fill them up with donations before the next grocery trip. I have gotten lax, thanks for the motivation.

[melaniepeters]

You motivate me every video! I feel overwhelmed when trying to figure out what to get rid of. Giving to shelters is a great idea, some people have little to nothing and they will definitely appreciate it and make them happy and hopeful. Decluttering sentimental things is really hard for me, I always feel bad. There are some things that are not negotiable, but where to start? Each time gets easier I guess. Thank you❤

[jdqwomo]

Your words are very motivating and true. Thank you

[lindale]

I found you at the perfect time! I'm in desperate need of decluttering and everything you say is so relatable and motovating. Thank you!

[mplotusflower]

I love how you are doing it one box at a time!

[valariedavis]

I love decluttering too🥰 I donate all my old towels and bedsheets & blankets to animal shelters, they were super happy to get them and they told me they desperately needed them which made my ❤️ happy 😊

[RoszenCariaso]

Love watching this collection, thank you for doing this. Saved me from scrolling 😅

[tamarap]

Such a satisfying video to watch! Wish it was full screen....haha. You totally outfitted that consignment shop at the end...Wow!
