CLOSET DECLUTTER / CLOSET ORGANIZATION / HUGE DECLUTTER // CLEANING VIDEOS //

foreigner in today's video I have a big project to deal with. I'm finally tackling the order of my part of the dressing room. We will sort and organize all of my clothes, as well as a lot of small miscellaneous items that I have. I've been sitting in my

closet

since we moved here so I'm going to go through them quickly and clean out our master bedroom so I'll start with

cleaning

the master bedroom and then I'll move on to sorting out the

closet

and then the miscellaneous items towards the end of the video. I can't believe how long it took me to start this project.

It's been on my to-do list since we moved into this house, I don't know, about seven months ago. The reason it took me so long to get started is because I was making a big deal out of it, of course it may not be a small project especially for someone who has quite a few clothes but the fact that I kept telling myself that oh . It may take me more than a day. Maybe I should finish all the smaller projects first. How will I sleep if I don't finish in a day? I'm just too tired today.

Etc. Etc. That approach never works. What works for me. What I have found is to accept the fact that sometimes it can take more than a day and just be prepared for it, have a plan and then start small, step by step or in other words, break that project into larger projects. little ones. one last thing I've been working on a lot is to stop waiting for motivation or like it's some kind of magic that appears out of nowhere. I guess that could happen from time to time. but most of the time I have noticed that we motivate ourselves when starting our project, no matter what motivation comes after, I guess we see some kind of progress or whatever happens, but the motivation always comes at least after I start the project. with me anyway right now I'm just

cleaning

the room, I'm going to vacuum the floors too and then I'm going to start on that mess closet and it's full of stuff, it's a mess, I've completely left it.

Go ahead and I'll take care of it today, by the way, if you're new to this channel. I'm Jenya, I come from Russia and I've been married to my American husband for four years. We now have two children together, a boy. and a girl and a few weeks ago I found out that I was pregnant and this time with a twin, so in a few months I will go from being a mother of two children to a mother of four, all the children are going to be four years old or younger, I can't even imagine how It will be, but my time management may have to change a little, so right now I just know that I want to get as many projects out of my way as possible and get them done. as much as I can before the big day arrives, so on this channel you'll find plenty of cleaning, organizing, tidying, and the occasional DIY room makeover if you enjoy that sort of thing.

I hope you come back and see me again in the meantime. Clean this room before I organize my entire closet because I will do it in this room. I also wanted to vacuum the floors because clothes will be all over the room. One more thing I wanted to do before Forester tidies up is to do my laundry just to make sure there isn't a

huge

bucket of extra clothes that I didn't take into consideration when tidying up, so I'll finish cleaning the master bedroom and talk to you in one moment. I hold your body close to me feeling like a strange hurricane on the TV screen and I really don't like, for some reason, using the same type of microfiber cloth after cleaning the dust everywhere and then using it on the TV screen , it's just a personal preference, but I prefer to go get a clean cloth and then clean the screen, probably also with alcohol instead of my all-purpose cleaner, whatever it is, but this day I couldn't get back to the TV screen after everything, so I just left.

I bought it and forgot about it, they fired me. I also love this little stick. I bought it at the dollar store for 25 dollars and then I see them online from eight dollars and up not sure what the deal is here but this one for a dollar 25 works great thanks everyone what I want to do now maybe We can dance abroad now that I've cleaned and tidied this room. I'm going to show you a couple of after takes before it gets really dirty again and then finally taking you to that mess closet I share with my husband, everything on the left is my husband's and the right side is mine, this is all mine, there are more shelves back there and I just use them for miscellaneous items. a couple of organizers that I never actually looked at after we moved into this house that I'm going to pull out today and review, and then these two plastic dressers on the floor that I use for everything I don't hang.

I have a feeling I'm running out of space but we'll see after I order today if I need to get an extra dresser like I said there are a couple of boxes I haven't even been able to unpack yet but you get the idea I'm basically going to start by taking everything out. clothes from here and placing them in the master bedroom on the bed on the floor, going through everything piece by piece, organizing everything that I don't need and don't like, don't use and then organize the rest, I know there are a lot of questions What you can do to yourself by organizing things and then organizing them again.

There are also some ways at this time. I'm going to start by going through the clothes and seeing what doesn't. I like to sort it right away and as I go through it, just sort them into categories, like dresses, blouses, pants, and since I see them organized by category, I hope I can tell if I have too much of a certain category and it will be easier for me to delete some clothes from each category. I will ask myself general questions: Do I like it? I use it? Even if I wear it, I really need that kind of clothing because of my lifestyle.

It's changed since I had kids. I no longer need to store a lot of party clothes. On the other hand, I am going to keep my maternity dresses and for me, an important rule to follow that I find very difficult all the time is to try. and not pay as much attention to the dollar sign on the clothes during my

declutter

ing. I've kept so many clothes lately just because I know they cost me a lot and that's the hardest part for me during

declutter

ing so I try my best today just to ignore that because if something is really expensive, if I add the same amount of time , I don't wear it or I won't sell it, no matter how much it costs, it takes up space in my life and just like that I have kept many dresses before that were beautiful and expensive, but I never wore one anyway.

I'm showing you the shoes I'm throwing away because my cat is secretly apparently a dog he has a problem with. chewing on shoes, thank goodness she didn't need any of those shoes I just threw away, but we no longer keep them accessible to her. In the meantime, this is all I have to go through. I'm going to start with the bed stuff so I'm going to go through the clothes first and get an idea and get an idea of ​​what I'm dealing with and I want to walk you through my thought process or just the main points as you go through things, yeah, be free, be free when you watch

organization

and order

videos

of someone else organizing their clothes, for example, it seems pretty simple when it's someone else's clothes.

I feel like yes, you can get rid of it or keep it. I wanna go. Through my own clothes it feels a little different. I don't want to say that I have feelings or emotions about my clothes. I never understood that, but then I looked at a couple of my clothes and they weren't even my clothes, they belonged to a relative who, for example, is no longer with me and I want to keep a couple of those things and I always did, but this time I'm going to take them out of my closet and I'll put them in a more special place and last time I organized my clothes right before we moved into this house and I remember organizing my wedding dress, so I mean there were a little bit of emotions there too, not too many, it's just that I felt I was getting rid of something special but at the same time it was not beneficial for me to keep it any longer.

I know a lot of people keep their wedding dresses and we all do things differently and I'm not saying if it's right or wrong, what I'm trying to point out is that apparently there is such a thing as being emotionally attached to an item of clothing and not letting it go. I understood before, until I experienced it myself while going through my clothes, I'm also going to I came across a pair of hats that my ex-boyfriend left behind years ago when my mother found them and kept them for me thinking I might also be emotionally attached to them and maybe at that moment maybe he was.

I don't really remember being attached to my ex-boyfriend's hat, but this time I knew for sure why this is still in my closet. I ordered it immediately. Our destiny has caused us to be walking a path. I'm just making sure I don't forget the dirty clothes, which are just my clothes, because I want to make sure I go through all the clothes today and put away everything I don't need and don't forget anything strange in my empty closet. I'm just going to dust and vacuum the floors before I start putting some of my clothes in an organized order.

At that time I was thinking if there is any particular way I should put my clothes back in here, so I want to ask you. Is there a particular way you organize your clothes in your closet? What do you fold and what do you hang? Do you organize your clothes by color maybe you don't have a closet and you only have a dresser. Do you separate your summer clothes from your winter clothes or do you just put all the pants together and all the blouses separated by short sleeves, long sleeves or something like that and I also wonder How do you store your shoes?

Do you keep them along with your clothes and then put some away maybe somewhere? in the entrance you use this season and maybe change them later. I wonder how other real people do it. I feel like I always ask them a lot of questions, maybe simple ones, but I love reading their answers because that's my main one. source of learning. Every once in a while I come across an organizing book, and of course I watch a lot of YouTube

videos

too, but nothing can replace the opinions of real people living real lives, which is why it's one of my favorite things to do.

To read your answers to my questions about how you organize things, how you put things away, because I always feel like I always pick up something new from you and that's why I ask you so many questions. At this point, I got to my floor clothes, which are mainly my tops and my pants that were in those two little elastic dressers, everything that I don't hang, in other words, so I'm going to go through them separating them into main categories like, for For example, pants and shirts, which of course become subcategories and There will also be some pregnancy clothes that I will put separately and of course I am ordering everything that I don't feel I like or need, trying to ignore that dollar sign, another extra pile I'm going to make is of all the clothes that I no longer know if they fit me or not, even though I'm pregnant, it's pretty noticeable right now, I feel like I can still tell if the clothes fit me.

It's going to be good. or not, it's not my intention at all to save just one pair of skinny jeans for Hope and wear them one day and like I said, even though I'm pregnant, I still feel like I'll be able to tell if I'm pregnant. Whether or not those clothes will fit me when I'm not pregnant, so I'll have that stack and try them on a little bit later in this video. Home, it's the last thing I need. I want to feel something that is real with you. you are like a lighthouse here is my shoe eating cat her name is Katya she loves to watch me and help me clean and she certainly never misses a big order it's nice to show you a couple of things I wanted to try on I bought this shirt for my twins from Amazon.

I feel like I haven't gotten big enough yet. I ordered a size large, but I'm also pretty sure I'll get to that size very soon, and as I go through that little pile, the rest. Some of the clothes are not maternity, but they fit everything that would normally fit me when I'm not pregnant, so I'll definitely be sticking with these black jeans and these blue jeans. I have one more pair of jeans that I like and that makes it three pairs of jeans that I have now this style is skirt may not be for everyone. I love it, although I ordered it mainly for pregnancy since it will mainly be the hot season and it is extremely comfortable, it has pockets, it is of great quality and I ordered it on Amazon.

I try never to order clothes online as 70 of the time they don't fit and I find it difficult to return them, but it was a nice surprise and definitely a place for me anyway. Now I go back to the room as before. all the clothes separated into categories I decided to take it a step further and quickly take a look at each category to see if I could order just a couple more clothes from each category because even though I already went through all the clothes and put Everything I ordered in the floor I felt like I still had too much and I just didn't need all of this, so as I took a look at each of those piles I found one or two pieces of clothing in each pile that I just didn't love as much and I decided to let it go because after all Separated into categories, it was easier to see it as more of a Marie condo style, for example, now that I had all my long skirts in a pile, it was easy for me to look at them and think if I really need that many skirts. alone I found another maternity top that I love on Amazon it feels a little lighter on you something for you I decided not tobother and organize clothes by color because I just don't have that many colors, the only color I have is black or red, anything with extra flowers is usually my maternity clothes.

I'm going to sort through a bunch of that after I'm done having babies, which is definitely after this pregnancy, but do you like to organize your clothes by color and if so, do you still bother separating them by season? You think you belong to everyone else, but you belong to me. While I'm hanging them, I just try to separate them into tops, bottoms, dresses, skirts and something like a special occasion and then the rest. The clothes will go into the bottom two dressers separated by pants and tops and we'll get to that in just a minute.

Crazy, crazy. I recently bought some extra velvet hangers because I wanted to get rid of all the plastic ones. and I had the new ones hanging in the closet, but all of these on the bed are just extras left over from the clothes I ordered today. I've been sorting through the plastic hangers over time and was worried I wouldn't have enough. velvet hangers, but that's no longer a concern, now I can let the rest of the plastic hangers go and now I have plenty of the pretty black ones. Now I can probably let my husband wear some of these nice ones, as well as for clothes that I don't hang up I have a lot of pants a lot of mostly short sleeve tops on the floor I have shirts that I prefer to sleep in and a small pile of clothes that I decided not to mess up and to dedicate myself strictly to painting every time I have a painting project all those clothes will go to the dressers, hopefully, they will fit.

We do this every day and I'm still so surprised that you have a small pile of pants that don't fit in the dressers, not that I don't have space here, but I wanted to keep all the categories together so I'm going to think about how to store them better and now I'm going to go through this pile of socks and stockings and stockings and here I'm going to do it. I also find things like winter gloves, even my kids' gloves, some extra belts for dresses and things just extra stuff. Oh, I feel very lucky in the end.

I decided to separate all my warm winter socks from the normal socks, put all the tights and stockings together as well as the belt. As for the gloves, I'm going to take them downstairs to the entrance and I'm going to stick them in the container with the winter hats. the rest is organized and then there's one more drawer that I didn't even think about and I put all my extra winter clothes in here and completely forgot about it. I remember searching for something during the winter. How about the time to find it now that winter is almost over anyway?

I only put away the clothes I kept thinking about over the winter and sorted out the rest, so I won't be using that drawer anymore and all my clothes will be kept strictly in the closet. I don't count all my winter jackets. that will be kept at the entrance of the closet, these piles of clothes that I'm going to sort out from time to time, if you remember, I still have some little extra clothes that are not even close, but when we moved here I only had a couple of organizers with those items and put them in the closet, so next I'm going to quickly go through all of those items.

I don't think most of them should belong in the closet and if they don't, I'll have to find them a home. Listen in the Stars, there's a little pile to my right and I think they call it halfway home tidying style. I'll explain it in a second, but this is the pile with all the little extra items I have to go through, some of them aren't so little, but this is the last thing I have to sort out today and then I still wanted to make a couple of labels that might need. for my bins, for example, with socks, but then back to that sorting pile halfway home.

I heard about that way of decluttering a while ago when I watched a YouTube video, but what happens is that when you just don't have the courage to actually declutter something but you're really not sure if you'll use it if you really need it or if it's a kitchen if you're ever going to use it or you're just not sure it will cost you a lot of money. be an appliance or whatever, so when I have things like that that I can't decide on, I'll put them in a box and put them somewhere far away where I won't see them every day in this case.

I'm going to store things like that in the basement of our old house where we didn't have a basement. I would put a box like that in the garage and then leave it there for a few months, maybe even up to six months. or something like that and then if you never need anything from that box during that time or don't even think about any of those items, then you can just safely sort them on my favorite organizing channel, which is the clutter bug lady says Don't even look inside. that box after those months have passed and I don't know if I'm going to look or not it's usually tempting but she says just order without looking so that little pile of clothes that was on the floor goes to the basement for a few months, a small example of one of the pieces in that pile were leggings that I spent quite a bit of money on and they even fit great and are very flattering and when I wear them I feel quite comfortable for maybe an hour. sort of and then I get tired so I'm not as comfortable as wearing those leggings all day so I got tired of looking at them in my closet and as I mentioned today I was really putting a lot of effort into not looking and not paying attention. on the dollar sign on my clothes so that pile was stuff like that I just couldn't make a decision on anyway let me know if you do that I think they call it halfway or just save a box for a few months where I don't see it every day.

I think it works great for me, so let me know if you've never tried it and if it works for you. Yes Yes Yes Yes. I have a couple of my favorite blankets. Ross store I still didn't know the genders of my babies so I picked out a blue one and a pink one and I know I probably shouldn't have but I couldn't help it. The store is just great and I had to let that energy out and shop. at least just one thing, although I didn't know the genres yet. I don't care what we do.

All in our guest room. I have a closet where I keep all the extra things, sundries, and bathroom supplies. example, etc., so most of the things that I'm putting away actually belong in that closet at the time we had visitors that were sleeping in that room, so I'm just going to put away all the organizers and all the things that are going to that closet. next to that wall and I'll leave it there until the guests leave and then I'll put it in that closet. As for this master bedroom closet I ordered today, I'm going to go in there one last time. and just throw away or sort out all those shoes that were hanging there, but I never wore them so I don't feel like I need a lot of shoes.

I'll just leave everything I use daily and stuff. pair of blue shoes my husband took me out the other day and I really wanted to wear a nice pair of shoes, but when I put on one of the pairs I just didn't feel comfortable on the menu, even though I used to wear them all the time. I don't know if it's true but they always tell you that after you have babies or after you're pregnant your feet get bigger, they might get bigger but I'm not sure if they shrink again after they're no longer you are pregnant.

All I know is that none of my shoes that I used to wear before fit me anymore for some reason, I had to order them all anyway, there's no point in keeping them. Let me know in the comments what you think about having feet. bigger after pregnancy or after having babies and now we were looking at the closet after cleaning. I'm going to explain a little bit and then I also wanted to ask you one last question about those shelves with all the baskets and containers. I have my socks and things like personal underwear and bras, everything has its own container.

I put a couple of labels on them that don't quite stay on and I need to use some tape over them, but anyway the main reason for my labeling is so I don't have an excuse to throw something into a basket that's set up specifically for something else. with the black dresser. I only have my shirts here, the short sleeve ones are on top, the middle one is for tank tops and the bottom one is for my sleepwear and then the right pink one is full of pants, regular pants, leggings and then party pants of pajamas at the bottom, thanks for the pants and jeans that I don't wear every day.

I decided to get into that blue container and in the The shelf moves up and goes from left to right. I have all my warm clothes, long sleeve shirts and sweaters, then the rest of my shirts. I tried to leave a little space between the categories, then I'll have all my pregnancy dresses separately and then all of them. The bottoms like skirts mostly and then the last category will be a couple of special occasion outfits. I also ordered a lot of that simply because I always seem to use the same thing over and over again. I have a couple of pairs of shoes. down in the garage, but I don't really have that many and I only have a couple pairs that I'm going to keep here on the top shelf anyway, the question I wanted to ask you after looking at my closet now I can't.

It helps, but ask for some comparison if you look at the amount of clothes you have, would you say you have more or less clothes than what I have in my closet now? Not to put me or anyone down, but I'm just curious. I feel like a lot of you still have less clothes in your closet, but I'm wondering if there are at least a few of you who have a little more clothes than I do now and keep in mind that my side is just the front. The left side is my husband's and I'm not showing it much anyway and I'm under no pressure, but if you feel like it, leave me a comment below this video and now I'll wish you a wonderful weekend and hope to see you. next Saturday, goodbye, foreign note, that check and donate is for my sister to check if she wants it and then donate it, she will not return anywhere in this house, she is fine, goodbye.
