It’s crazy how much more peaceful my home feels after getting rid of my totes in the attic. Everything was hidden, but it took up more mental space than I recognized before.

Stuff in totes is mentally draining! Just knowing it’s there…

“When everything is sentimental, nothing is.” Yes! I have work to do. Your home is lovely. ❤

I'm a natural born minimalist. I LOVE getting rid of things. Clutter and just "stuff" in general drains me emotionally. I try to get rid of something as often as possible. The more empty a room is, the better!

I love this quote from 9:30 so much:
"Sometimes, craft supplies, they aren't a hobby anymore. They're just the ghost of a hobby. They're haunting you from a very organized set of plastic bins that you bought specifically to contain the guilt."

It’s taken me years to realize that I’m happy with less, especially with books, decor and sentimental items. Now that I know how freeing it feels, I’m able to declutter so much more. This video is excellent. Thanks! 💛🌈😊💜

I had my grandmother's wedding ring. I wore it occasionally and sometimes often. One day I wore it and it was loose on my finger. It fell off. I lost it. I was very saddened. But having lost it, I think of her more often. She's now deeper in my heart and thoughts. I didn't need the ring to do that.

I turned my guest bedroom into another setting room. It already had gorgeous build in high cupboards. I store my hobbies, my office, my massage machines inside. It's a delight has it hides everything.

On the topic of sentimental items for other people, I STRONGLY advise people get a photo album and just take a beautiful picture of the sentimental item in the place that looks nice. Keep the photo and the memory and get rid of the junk.

I've adopted the term "essentialism" for myself. What we use all the time or may realistically need (Eg Flashlights and bottled water for storms). We swap clothes seasonally and do store off season clothing in totes.

I am a mediumist, I like bright & colorful items including throw pillows, but nothing in excess

The stark white empty room is exactly what the Minimalist Mom influencer does in her house. And A to Zen is pretty bare, too. It's just not achievable for hardly anyone and puts undue stress on people who are trying to declutter or organize. I appreciate your approach to a realistic house.

I'm 51, an empty nester, and soon-to-be grandma. Out of the entire youtube multi-verse, YOUR videos have been the most useful to me. Some influencers homes are as sterile as a 1960's sanitorium. With my quirky mental issues, I do not want that asthetic!! Thank you for all of your help. I wish we were next door neighbors.

I’ve started putting my donate items in the front passenger seat to remind me to drop it off!!

I love the Oreo Thin Mints in with the random cords.........hahaha

I totally agree with you, Robyn. I am working on minimal light. The more we own, the more we have to take care of. Totes, while the items are not having to be dealt with right now, create a "mental" item we have to manage. I do have totes for the holidays. I keep trying to reduce them every year.

Great video! We are currently decluttering our home. The goal is to have a peaceful calm space to relax, have people over, have space and time to go back to my beloved hobbies from days gone by. This will be a big summer project for us but we made a good start/dent today. Off to donation and recycling tomorrow before work 😁

Finally an honest minimalist person.

Great video, Robyn!! Fits the majority of us. I strive for this always. Gave removed much from my house. Moving today. The movers arrived 15 minutes ago, and they are about 25% done. This will be my least expensive move ever!! I live have a clean, tidy, and organized home. It’s so much easier. Love your channel!! ❤️❤️❤️
