Messy Home Makeover - Declutter 2 Rooms in 2 Days!

You know that decluttering and organization can change your life, but I wanted to show you that it doesn't have to be a huge and time-consuming project. I spent two days organizing, cleaning and decluttering this messy storage room and this cluttered craft room.

In just two days, we decluttered, organized and did a complete makeover of both spaces on a tiny budget. I hope this video inspires you to tackle a room in your home today! When you are feeling overwhelmed, remember: Five Minutes Matters. You don't need weeks or even months to get your home under control, you just need to get started!

1. Thank you Cas for showing us someone who doesn’t fit easily into one organizing style
2. Thanks to homeowners who allow us to see real life progress
3. Thanks for doing this on a realistic level!
So excellent!!!❤❤❤

I love the phrase "room of doom" I have to remind myself " a thing done imperfectly is better than a perfect thing not done...

[danamiceli]

Love the statement, "not perfect but better." Feeling motivated to tackle a room. Thank you!

[norawotton]

I love how you make decluttering ‘doable’. It doesn’t have to be perfect, it doesn’t have to be expensive, and it can be done in small steps.

I love this! I just hired an organizer to help me get organized in a house we have lived in almost 45 years! I’m definitely overwhelmed but she is great!!

[trishhinkle]

I moved into my house almost 4 years ago and I’m still in the “I’ll deal with that later” mode. Cass, you are amazing and encouraging!♥️

[ummmuhammad]

I love how your husband goes with you. Who would’ve thought that your situation would go from resentment because you’re organizing for free, to joining you to intentionally organize for free 😊.

Aww Emily's attempt at not-perfect polka dots still ended up being in diagonal lines which I love, I'm a cricket and need order. I also loved her little dance, and I definitely teared up when you did the reveals! So happy you're able to make such a big difference to people's lives!

Cover the pool (with tarps if that's what it takes), and lay down tarps in the backyard - we harvest mulberries from our trees by laying down tarps because then the berries don't get lost in the grass, but it will make it way easier to collect the pods (I did the same sort of thing in January the night before my mom and I drove my truck home because the truck doesn't have a bed cover yet - all we had to do in the morning before we left was pull the tarp out by the corners and voila! the snow was out of the bed and the bed was completely dry, saving me 1/2-1 hour of work); stake the tarps down if it will be windy at all. There will probably still be seed pods that get in the grass, but it will be a heck of a lot less work to clean up the yard.

I am a total ladybug but my husband is a butterfly. I took your advice and defaulted to his organization style, and now our house is more organized, and he can easily put stuff away.
I prefer visual simplicity, but I must say it has really helped me. If I could have everything hidden, I would, but then I have to tell my husband constantly where stuff is. Now that we have are organized with his style in mind, he is empowered to put stuff where it belongs because he can see where it goes. Lol 😆 thanks Cas!!!!

Cas! This video is such great timing considering what project I just finished at 1am before this video released!
OK long story time:
This past week I was cat-sitting for a neighbor. Turns out the neighbor has an entirely hoarded house (Level 4), and she’s only lived there a year and a half! I told her: “You know, one of my hobbies is decluttering and organizing. If you don’t mind me touching literally everything you own, I’d love tackling these mountains for you.”
She said oh my god yes-
So this past week I was able to fill 2 medium dumpsters of literal trash (cardboard, moldy wood, old papers, etc.), get sentimental stuff into boxes, and zone her home into: living room, office, art room, and a functional bedroom.
I just got to reveal her cleaned, organized, and decorated house to her last night when she returned and she was so happy and shocked!
And she’s a bee so I got a pegboard for her Art wall (so now she has a container for all her duplicate supplies), and everything is so beautiful and functional.
I listened to all of your videos and Dana and Dawn’s videos as I cleaned- so that was great body doubling!

I did the project for free as well because a functional home is priceless! Happy to share this exciting news with you because her life is changed for the better with the power of decluttering!

Cass, I only recently stumbled on to Clutterbug and I have been hooked ever since. You are the first person that has ever made the whole "declutter, sort, and organize" make sense for me. I'm definitely a bee, my husband is a ladybug, and daughter is a butterfly. Your categories and philosophy really helped me to understand that we're not messy, we just organize differently. Love these makeovers, they're practical and inspirational. I'm actually tackling my own home one little corner at a time and have shared your videos with others. Wins all around!

Karla is such a pure soul. So warmhearted. Thank you for helping this family Cas. The rooms turned out beautiful.

I feel the lack of storage space. In my country there are no built in closets, so you have to buy furniture. I moved two times during the last three years and didn't have a wardrobe for all this time, because the budget didn't allow to buy one. I am a cricket and it hurt my soul living out of boxes. You cannot unpack if you have nowhere to put the stuff. I finally got a wardrobe for free last month and I was so thankful. Now everything is extremly tidy as I prefer it to be.

Selling a home is so stressful. Prayers for a break in crazy weather for y’all! ❤️❤️❤️

[thefluffle]

I love how you reorganized Karla's space ❤

[ogqufct]

Cass you are Awesome! You are talented, caring and very funny! Congratulations on your new house!

[annettepearce]

Girls room was absolutely gorgeous 😍 and office/craft brilliant! So nice seeing your off-siders (ie Joe & Emily) in front of the camera. Cas, you really are very clever at decorating on a budget 👏👏👏

[nrgltwrkr]

I am so glad that you covered someone who doesn't fit into one of your clutterbug categories, because I don't either! I learned a lot about how to combine some of the tips and techniques, so that I can at least try it out and see what works and what doesn't. Thanks again. I think that one of the lessons of the seed pods may have been: "Control is an illusion, especially outdoors." LOL🌪🌪🌪🤣

My son’s room was a storage room too! Thankful for my family who helped get it in order so he could have his room

[lolokaymeg]

Cass, I've been watching you for a long time now. I have been watching you religiously every day for about a week, from old to new videos and my home has never felt better. thank you so much ❤ always had that same personality and you make me laugh in every video 😊
