Are there any minimalist who have a family, work outside of the home and don't have extra help?
ОтветитьI would love to know where you get your dressy shirts in the video. The ones you laid out on the bed. They are shirts that I would wear everyday.
ОтветитьMy problem is I like wearing several different types of clothes. I randomly choose super casual and comfy, business attire, cute dresses and skirts, super unique pieces that stand out, and I i have several outfits for nightclubs and concerts. I can still use these steps for narrowing down all of my categories, but I feel like I can't have a small selection when I wear so many styles each month.
ОтветитьI’m thinking of matching two weeks worth of outfits and then forcing myself to donate the rest. I also have to figure out how much to keep for my mom I take care of that has dementia 😢I wish I could afford someone to help me here in Orlando to help make non biased decisions. Praying 🙏🏼
ОтветитьI also think when I donate to a place or organization that doesn’t resale (DV shelter, homeless shelter, churches), someone else that NEEDS my clothes can have them and it will make them happy!❤❤❤
ОтветитьI saw a video where you stack all of the shirts in one pile, pants in one pile, etc. and then keep like so many of each. I’m doing all my laundry as we speak and after I’m all caught up, I’m going to prayer for God to help me. My mental illnesses don’t help. I know for sure I am good with one light, medium and dark colored jeans❤I also think of the Swedish death because of burdening my kids & I also hate laundry! Less clothes, less laundry for the win😂
ОтветитьPlease work on not saying “again” so much it’s really irritating thanks otherwise great video!!
ОтветитьOMG you’re a genius!!!
ОтветитьIt's not just stressful the other way, it takes tons of time!! This sounds like it could work. I'm going to try it! Thanks! Those things look much lighter to move around - I'm really beginning to hate rubbermade containers!!
ОтветитьDawn, I just ordered the storage bags from Amazon. I can’t wait to try them!
Ответитьi hate shopping really. and i hate the feeling of leafing through mass-produced badly-made and even impractical uncomfortable clothing in a store. but new jobs and even special events have forced me to do that in a crunch-time so i hAve to go to the mall and try a ton of stuff on and maybe buy something that will 'do the job for now' but i hate it or i just know it wont last. more and more i been trying to curate a sort of 'capsule' wardrobe that will in fact just cover all the bases and it will be made up of quality comfortable items that look presentable for me. its hard, but i think slowly but surely its getting there. my only question is- would it be unacceptable to just wear all black to church on sundays (not just for funerals)..? lol kinda seriously tho, i have black shirts and a black skirt and im tired of shopping
ОтветитьI am doing slow
decluttering . 3 items in my keep 1 month if not worn for 3 months. Usually they end up at op shop
I wear what hangs most left in the closet. If I don’t like to wear it today I can put it back behind in the row but if I don’t wear it the second time it goes away. Everything that doesn’t fit or I don’t like goes in the donate box right away. I don’t have to think about what to wear. Just pick what hangs left.
ОтветитьJust did this in a half hour. Pulling the “likes/fits” out first was so much faster! Thank you!
ОтветитьSo this video inspired me to get rid of so many clothes tonight! I thank you. I am not ready for minimalist lifestyle yet- I am ready to organize and de clutter. Stop the shopping and materialism that has taken over my life. I appreciate your tips. I kept asking myself does this fit the season of my life I am in right now and it helped me let go of so much.
ОтветитьThanks Dawn. Your tips are awesome. I have been going through clothes and stuff. With more clarity and purpose. 😊
ОтветитьAnybody else find yourself getting angry at your clothing? I did a mini-purge today, and it felt like I was venting all the pent-up aggression I’ve accumulated every time I’ve had to adjust an ill-fitting, poorly designed, uncomfortable item or gotten stressed by how packed my closet is. Genuinely gave some items triumphantly dirty looks as I put them in the get-rid-of pile. 🤣
ОтветитьI use a bag that a quilt came in to store out of season clothes. It's clear, fits under the bed and was "free" with the quilt.
I also try to keep my wardrobe contained, if I have more than fits in my dresser, it's time to go through it. I do hang a couple of things on the bank of the bedroom door, our bedroom has no closet (old farmhouse), but I even have a couple of wrinkle-free dresses that I fold up in my dresser. Gosh! You've inspired me... I think I'll go up and weed out the things I have not been wearing. Thank you!
I started my clothes decluttering a few months ago when I had been too busy to do laundry for a while. It was easy to get rid of what I didn't enjoy wearing since all the clothes I liked were in my laundry basket. I kept a few things, but many of the items still in my room ended up being donated. I had a lot of jeans that fit but I didn't love, so I put all the jeans that I was on the fence about in another room for several weeks until I realized I needed to go shopping for jeans I love. With two new pairs of jeans in hand, it was easy to let go of all the jeans in the other room. As a bonus, I no longer want to go shopping for clothes all the time since I now enjoy all the clothes I have.
ОтветитьOh wow, thank you for giving me these tips; I was struggling with the Marie Kondo method; your method is way more simple ❤ thank you!!!
ОтветитьThis makes so much sense. We are a family of seven and it's soooo much stuff!!! This concept is genius!!!
ОтветитьThanks so much dawn. I decluttered my whole closet with you by my side. And I made a shopping list that I don't feel guilty about because I know I need everything ❤
ОтветитьI like this tip!!!! I'm gonna try it!!!!!!
ОтветитьLO l, the simplest way of getting rid of the clothes you don't want or need is by losing weight
ОтветитьMy problem is sort of the opposite, I bulked out to my healthy and average adult weight at 18 and 10 years later I’ve stayed the same size. My problem is it’s hard parting with things that I’ve loved my whole adult life just because they are getting tatty as well as things that hold memories and still fit but I haven’t worn in a long time.
ОтветитьAnnnd now I heard 😆 I commented too soon. Thank you so much for these videos ❤ you seem so very real, which is refreshing ❤
ОтветитьQuestion, what about holiday clothing?
ОтветитьThis reminds me of a broken down practical marie kondo method
ОтветитьLaying out my clothes on my bed to make outfits will make me depressed about my pants/jeans situation. Looking for that high waist short leg relaxed thigh tapered ankle light colored perfect pair lol
ОтветитьI am always simplifying my clothes. 🤷🏻♀️ I have a small bin for winter and summer stuff for capsole wardrobe and then i only got x amount per baby. Downsizing has made it to where i only do 1 load of laundry for myself and my twins a week and it works great
ОтветитьDoes anyone have a space or container for too small clothes or even too big clothes that they loved but currently don’t fit?
ОтветитьHi Dawn! I’m new to your channel; a couple weeks now but I’m finding your videos very helpful so thank you! One of the things I’ve been doing when I go through clothes is if I have something’s that don’t fit (too small) but meet the “criteria” for keeping; still in style/not frumpy, colors & cuts that flatter me, like the fabric/feel, it’s comfortable, know what/where I can wear it for I will label the item or pile with an extreme post-it (they stick better to clothes than regular post-it’s) with a note like “try this when <x lbs” I am on weight watchers which has worked well for me in the past so after several more months and seasons if I am not realistically going to fit/look good in something I will then donate it.
ОтветитьI know this video is a couple of years old but I am just starting my process of decluttering, I am going through videos that give me tips to give me help in doing this. Your approach is totally different in how I was trying to declutter, I now feel like I can do this or at least start, I have such a hot mess that I think it will take a couple of times to be true to myself, but I am now armed with some good techniques that I think will get me closer to the goal I have in mind. Great video, thanks for the tips and guidance.
ОтветитьI’m going to use this method 😊
ОтветитьNothing more disheartening than feeling uncomfortable in your current size then trying to squeeze into too small clothing because you’re too stubborn to buy new clothes in a bigger size. I finally got over this and went to a resale shop for some items that actually fit comfortably. I love how she explained this process. ❤
ОтветитьIme having such a hard time decluttering my cloths i keep opening the woardrobe and closing it again 🙄
ОтветитьPeach is your color🌸
ОтветитьWow this was from the time during the pandemic where content creators couldn't say "quarantine".
ОтветитьI like how you mentioned that there's more than one way to sort your clothes, because like you said, sparking joy works for many, but not everyone, and in my case, unless i have my antidepressants, finding joy in anything is quite hard. I myself tend to leave an honest review on my clothes such as "these clothes are nice looking, but feel uncomfortable" or "I can't find any clothing that goes with this" or "i do not like this at all" so that I'm left to sort with the best of the best.
ОтветитьI've been listening to lots of declutter videos. You're definitely in my top five. Thank you for being so honest and mentioning our Creator!
ОтветитьI finally decide to really declutter my clothes . I tried to loose weight for a long time without success and kept all the old smaller clothes, and always struggled for what I have to wear. I gave me permission to keep only my size and only things that I always wear. You know what happened after couple of weeks? My anxiety lowered so much that I was easily able to succeed on my diet, -10 kg. Now I buy less and only things that I love and that I really need. Thank you!
ОтветитьTwo years on this is still so inspiring. I have a lot of clothes from different occupations, ages, sizes, and going through every item is just too much for me. Pulling out the stuff I love and wear all the time, however, is easy - it's like reverse engineering the whole process and setting me up for success. I can't wait to get started!
ОтветитьMy problem is I've been same shape since high school so I can wear most of my old clothes. I still buy beautiful clothes all the time. I have 2 full size rooms as my wardrobe... just moved. Only have 1 room for my clothes... I don't know how to fit everything in... I don't want to throw out the clothes as I can still fit them and they're all beautiful 🤦♂️
ОтветитьCan you do a makeup tutorial? Also…how do you edit your makeup collection?
ОтветитьSeven years ago I decided to only have my current plus size wardrobe in my closet. Got completely rid of my fantasy self clothes, the what if I lose 10-15lbs clothes and haven't looked back since. On any given day, without putting too much thought into it and put together an OOTD. The decision was easy and life changing.
ОтветитьI love the options you present. Not every system works for everyone! Thank you!
ОтветитьI didn't watch this video all the way through the first time because I was immediately inspired to get into action and culled out SIX big bags to donate. And got three bags to share with a friend and told her not to return anything to me, just pass any leftovers on. I will come back to this video again soon and take the time to try everything on. I did manage to get many of my clothes sorted to groups I am frequently wearing. I have so much stuff I am working in layers to get one room's surfaces cleared where I can feel at peace. I am only spending an hour a day clearing and sorting stuff to find it's forever place.
ОтветитьGood video. Thanks
ОтветитьHOw do I attack my husband's clothes.. 75 t-shirts and counting... He is sentimentally attached to each and everyone (according to him). His life is memorialized in t-shirts... every where he had ever been (or wants to go) He is an army veteran, so tons of shirts commenting on veterans, wounded warriors, etc... don't even get me started on the political shirts... 2nd amendment rights, etc. etc. There are way more shirts than we have room to store.
