DKW win of the day: mother-in-law shuts fridge in frustration saying “I just want to take some time and throw away the back half of the fridge!”
I responded “mostly condiments?”
She nodded. I said “open it back up and just grab something you know is obviously trash, just the first thing you see.” she opens, grabs a bottle, hands it to me to toss. Then she grabs her trash can and throws away 8-12 more mostly empty containers or things they tried and didn’t like. She breathed a sigh of relief and said “that’s a LOT BETTER.” I smiled and replied “and all you did is throw away a little trash for two minutes!” Thanks DKW

Your ability to use hamburglar as a noun, adjective and adverb was fantastic!!

The best tip I found for any items you are uncertain about. Put them in a box and over the next two weeks wear these items with other items from your wardrobe. That way you quickly find out items that are uncomfortable, ride up, crease easily or just don't suit you.

Reid White, please never stop adding your notes at the end of Dana’s videos 💕💕🤣🤣🤣

“Oh I can stop. It’s one of my gifts”
That’s a very real statement and I love it!

I love that you asked your daughter about the robe. My mom would get rid of such nice things that I would have loved and couldn't afford for myself. Sometimes being a great mom is about the smallest gestures.

I've started reading your books, when my son was a baby. He just turned 3 and our home got so much better. Not pretty, but functional. I did most of it in a few minutes here and there. My pre-motherhood perfectionism would have never let me do it like that. So thanks a bunch, Dana! ❤

Each day of the last 18 months I have prayed success over ppl finding AND EMBRACING the No Mess Decluttering Method as their salvation from clutter bc of my Compromised health/ chronic pain/ phy limitations- it took 22 months. However 220,000 items gone, about 85% to get to my clutter threshold‼️ NOW, we can live easy in our home. ❣️ Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you. Keep preaching, repeating, you are saving lives‼️ Simplifying my clothes  was one of the biggest areas that change has been so profound.

My 6 year old granddaughter LOVES reading Winnie's Pile of Pillows! Thanks for writing it!

I love the “lady” and “editor” clever and true comments at the end of your videos.  I can hear my own son every time. ❤😏

Decluttering is the gift that keeps on giving 🙌🏽

As someone else from Texas,  I can appreciate all seasons hanging in the closet at once year round. This is an excellent decluttering video!

❤😅😊❤  I was so inspired by this video that I jumped up, ran to my closet, and pulled out the dressy outfits that no longer fit so I can drop them off at Church to share with others. ❤

Three minutes and I now have an additional 2' of rod space!

Dana. you are an amazing inspiration to so many of us - even to mostly organized folks.  Thank you for all you do! I just can’t help but comment though - if you do invest in those flocked hangers (or any other kind but ALL the same) and hang all your clothes the same way, I bet you will notice a difference and love it! 😉 Either way whether that works for you or not, your 5 step process is so helpful for overwhelm, even for those with an organized bent; thank you!

thank you for saying "at home clothes!" lol.

I just bought my first zip robe literally yesterday!!! The struggle is real. 😂😂😂

I just love watching the process. It's so helpful to see it in real time. Thank you Dana!

It’s SO hard to find robes that are not fleece or poly…. cute but so hot!!
100% cotton is so hard to find! I finally after lots of hunting found a great cotton long robe at a thrift store. Totally a God thing because it was my perfect size and turquoise!
I do like rayon too. It’s not hot.

I’m working on my clothes now 💃🏻 Taking several bags today to charity shop. I did a quick decision sweep first. Then tried on stuff I never reach for and did more. Next phase will be facing how many of each item I have then deciding how much inventory I want to manage.
I have momentum and motivation now from after JUST GETTING STARTED. You can do it everybody. Just start and do it in phases as you WILL gain momentum 👏🏼

Thought of you today as I pulled all my clothes out of my closet. To be fair, in addition to decluttering and seasonal change over, I wanted to move my closet rods to more convenient heights. But I had to do some deep breathing and not zoom out and see all the piles on my bed. One by one everything went either back in the closet, into a vacuum bag until fall, or labeled with whatever alteration or repair I needed to do. Went to bed with everything away and an organized closet, but it wasn’t my first rodeo. ❤

If when you put away clean laundry, you hang like with like, you always see what you have clearly.
