Thank you to = June’s Journey for helping us declutter another space. You can download the game for FREE here: woo.ga/b9stb8

Re-organising, when you have no garage or other area to dump stuff, and your only storage is floors away, is really difficult. You both did a great job, especially when working to a deadline. The new bathroom looks so much more welcoming and kitty has her own space too.

Compassion is the key. Most of us haven't had a hurricane and pandemics are rare and a lot of us have "messy" places in our homes. You've so inspired me, this week I cleaned and organized my bathroom cabinets and drawers. It had been 7 yrs. since last done.

Love how mindful she is on recycling properly, this can add more time and effort in the decluttering fase but is so important on the long way! Love the after of the bathroom and all the kitten content 🥰🥰🥰

I'm not the only one with a storage shower! As ours doesn't work, it's a handy place to keep things actually. What a big win, not having that 'to do' glaring at them every day. My friend recently pointed out that decluttering is such 'spiritual' work - it's not just a practical task, but in decluttering we wrestle with the past, our relationship with stuff, safety, mistakes etc etc. No wonder it's so exhausting.

I like how respectful you are to not show the homeowner if they don't want to. Their stuff and space is the point of the story.

I really appreciate your commitment to reminding your followers to be positive and kind. You seem like such a sweet person.

I'm sure someone else has said this...but "sleepy sunny kitty" definitely "sparks joy" ! :)

First, I think using the shower for storage was brilliant. I don’t think I would have thought to do that. Second, I started a Reno on my house, 3 yrs ago. Between having to gut my house, replace all floor joists, fix the foundation, replace sub-floor, add new central AC, which was installed incorrectly, and redo the roof, that I was charged double for, I have given up on this place. I have fired 3 contractors and spent $70,000, and the front part of my house is a shell. I have been living in a bedroom, and a makeshift kitchen in the back of the house. I couldn’t give this house away right now. So, I understand how the couple in this video felt stuck and overwhelmed. Third, I just ordered the clear bins you used in this video!👍

I love that your client is eco-conscious and was thinking about how to properly dispose of things like nail polish. 👏. Great job on the space as always April! I like the idea of putting the litter box in the unused shower. Why waste the real estate? If they had guests staying over, they could always move it temporarily.

I love the fact the cat checked out the shower, and now has it as her "special space"! 💕

I am starting to purge and organize my 2,400 sq ft home. Hearing that you as a professional feel overwhelmed at times makes me feel so much better about my task.

I love your consideration of the way your client uses items. Travel bags, containers, drawee items, etc. You don't try and change their method(s), but instead embrace it and work with the items.

Great job girls! She is doing a brave thing decluttering with you on KZfaq for everyone to see. Letting go is very hard.

Bless them they had a rough few years. Big hugs to Honey the cat x

It is so relatable to put things in a closet or space and close the door, when life hits you. And to feel overwhelmed and not have the energy to start later on. Big compliments that they asked help and tackled it!

I moved into my house 20 yrs ago. There are boxes that I didn't go through until 3 years ago. Your show does inspire me. For me, it is a small section or cabinet at a time...

I love how supportive and non-judgmental you are with all of your clients! It can feel so vulnerable to have even one other person see all of your belongings, and you make it such a powerful and supported process. Thank you for sharing and for your thoughtfulness and kindness!

Big shout out to everyone who shares their decluttering online 😁. I would be too embarrassed. I love watching decluttering content before tackling mine - the recycling tips were fantastic 👍 I am shocked at how much I have collected in 1 year - it is scary 😱 .

@9:38 To recycle nail polish, if it is still wet, it is a dangerous waste. BUT! When you keep it open and let it dry somewhere, you can throw it in general waste. That is at least how it is here in Finland.

Thanks to your client for sharing those valuable recycling resources. And thank you for linking them.

The bathroom overhaul is absolutely key to making everyday life run smoother and calmer. I hope the homeowners will indulge more in self-care/home spa moments. Honey is absolutely adorable! 🐈 My two senior kitties are sixteen and it’s encouraging to see how other older cats are doing.

You guys did a great job. I can’t imagine going through hurricanes or tornadoes. Luckily I live where we don’t usually get any kind of storms. Love this series.

Love that you talk through the decluttering process & don't play music or time lapse over. The long videos are great! Watching the declutter is my favorite part! So interesting! Love your channel & the moving series' as well! 💗💗💗

I am sorry that you had to explain that we "need to walk in another's shoes" before we say anything. They are doing something about their home! That's GREAT!

Ugh, I don't understand why people feel the need to bash others, just because their spaces aren't as organized as their own. Progress over perfection!

Last week I finally found the courage to deal with the basement room of shame, as I like to call it. I followed your tips on grouping like items together and use what I have - the feeling of accomplishment and relief hasn't left me since. I didn't judge, but this gave me a whole new perspective of people doing it with a camera on. Thank you, so very much, for making this easier for me. I love the result!!!

I would recommend covering the drain hole in the shower. I've used a shower to hold the litter box and if your cats are anything like mine then they will get litter flung all over and you don't want that continually clogging your drain. :)

You are so right ! It’s hard work and it’s emotional work! I’m glad they’re at the point of healing where they were ready to ask for help! They’re going to love their home!

Great transformation! Love that the cat can use the shower for her kitty litter box. Paring things down like this is so uplifting, it encourages more paring down! Can't wait to see the closet transformation!

What a great job. It is so easy to get overwhelmed and having you there to help and guide them makes it a lot easier to tackle the job. Cats love a new place to explore. I found one of my cats sleeping in a skillet I put in a donation box. At the shelter where I volunteer we have a car that was feral and now he goes in and out of the thrift store. We had a toddler bed donated and he was sleeping in it one day. A little girl lay now beside him and they cuddled while her mom shopped.

People don't understand the space limitations of those of us who live in apartments, townhouses, or condos. I have to be strategic when decluttering my apartment. I have decided that decluttering happens twice a year... January and July. I have done my huge decluttering.

We have all had hard times got ourselves in many a pickle it happens you did a great job

I love labels. I would and do label almost everything haha. Helps my husband know where things are 😂

Thank you for sharing the process. It is a stressful project but broken down into smaller time or sections helps make it manageable. Your patience and expertise is a blessing to those who receive it.

And sometimes takes me three times to declutter because I can't let things go right away, so just keep working at it, you'll get where you want to be eventually!

I’m really enjoying seeing this series! I’m sure the owners are going to feel so amazing when done! It’s also really nice seeing everyone have kinder comments this time. Judgement when someone is being brave enough to do this is the last thing anyone needs, especially when living through a crisis.

I agree with you that everyone's journey in organizing is so different! The why of how it got that way and the why you want the change is not to be judged by others. Compassion and helpful comments are what helps most!

The bathroom looks awesome. And what a sweet kitty 🥹❤️ I like the litter box in the unused shower.

I know it’s a hassle but when the native deodorants are that small in the paper tube I take it out and set them in a small bowl in my medicine cabinet and use my hand to pick it up and rub on. yes you’ll have to wash your hands after but no guilt of not using it all up or opening a new one before it’s done. Well done buying the paper tubes ✌🏼🌱💚

Staples recycles electronics for free as well.

Fantastic job. Sweetest kitty ❤️

I can tell this is the game changer that will lead to the other rooms. I just really, really like your thoughtful process. I was thinking about your episode being up today. I was coming back home from being out of town. I thought....my first KZfaq watch is going to be TSD.

Thanks for passing on the recycling information! I hope their kitty loves the new shower set-up. I knew I would love this weeks video...and I did! Thanks April. LKMH

Using the shower for the litterbox is such a good idea- it's so bright and cheerful in there now I can't wait to see the next installments!!!!

I feel so bad, that was definitely trauma based. I'm glad you were there for them because now, even though it is 5 years later, they can start healing. I dont think people understand the impact a messy disorganized space actually has on the psyche. (Been there a lifetime ago) even now, after I film, if I don't put everything back right away I feel it. (Or maybe I have a touch of OCD lol) a clean decluttered and organized space is life as far as I'm concerned. I tried to impart this on my girls from a very young age. No3 is like me, now finally gets it lol and no1 is like her father (sigh) but has 2 young kids and is very busy lol, I tried, gave them my knowledge and now they have to find their own way lol. I must say though, I am jealous of the storage in her bathroom. We haven't renovated ours yet though, it's pretty much all that's left to do, woo hoo, I cannot wait. (I did manage to get the big IKEA medicine cabinet (no medicine in it) oh wow, I, better stop babbling lol, another great job by TSD 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😘💖😘💖

Transforming this bathroom is going to make such a difference in her daily life.

What I enjoy really is your kindness and empathy for the people you work with. Also, while my design aesthetic is very different, I always learn something from your videos that I can apply! Thank you!

The nonconforming pink basket among all of the clear bins triggered my OCD. 😄 The bathroom looks great, though!

Kitty is so cute! The bathroom came out fabulous. Looking forward to the next video.

Good job! I loved the part about the recycling, it is so good to know that things don´t get dumped in a landfill.

Wonderful organization! That kitty was so sweet and what a loud purr!

Love seeing the progress! They totally deserve a calm lovely space after everything they have been through last 5years!

Such an inspiring video! Honey is adorable. So great she has her own toilet now . Y'all did a great job organizing. I'm so impressed your client had all these recycling resources. Great job!!

So satisfying! Thank you for making this content. And thank you to the owners of the apartment for allowing us to have this satisfying experience. 🌷

My favorite thing to do is organizing. I love projects. How do you decide the amount of time you spend at someone’s home? I always tell my friends, try to empty their self storage when possible. Especially if they haven’t been in them for years. Get three boxes at a time and go through them. Most times you will find you don’t need it anymore or you can Consolidate it into your home. Self storage is expensive. ~ Janet 😘

Awesome work, April! I think your customer should be proud over themselves, they have been through a lot and now reached out for help. I think they will declutter the rest of the apartment after this series is finished. And what a cute kitty!

Yah!! I love clear bins. Great job 👏👏🤍

Also love the cat content! 🐈 such a lovely kitty 😍

Amazing resource, I have been just started looking into ways to get rid of items ethically thanks to you & her now I don’t have to. I think it’s amazing that you do all this at no cost to the homeowner!

I tend to hold onto a lot of things because I don’t know where to dispose of them. Thanks for the tips.

Kindness is always the answer. If you are a person who does feel much of an attachment to things, it can be confusing seeing what people keep. But we are all different. And I’ve seen the emotional struggle of decluttering in loved ones, and it is very real. And trauma impacts us all differently. Let’s all have a bit more compassion.

I definitely couldn’t get rid of stuff until I was ready this took years .

I look forward to Sunday mornings and your episodes. You never disappoint. I am in there process of decluttering. So I certainly get inspiration from you.

What a sweet kitty! & love seeing Izzy always!

Finally!!! at least somebody has acknowledged the people who do not like labelling!!!) THANX

The Kitty is so sweet and looks great for it’s age!!

Omg sooooooo satisfying! And that cat is so cute 🐈. I feel like all the stuff you are doing now is going to save them so much time in the future…. Less time looking for, less time cleaning, less money re buying things they already had, and less money wasted on things going bad when you don’t use them in time. Love how they are embracing getting rid of thing! I also think once you have left it may give them more confidence to let go of more once they see how much nicer it is to live with less…… one step at a time! The litter tray in the shower is a great idea!

I totally need you to be the space maker in my new tiny studio. 😅 Yes to organizing and reorganizing and glad you're referencing proper recycling for people! Great job and great series...and of course we love seeing the kitty. 💚

I’m just a third of a way through and I’m so excited with you! It feels so very good to tackle these spots and what a lift it gives to each day when we think back to the “befores”. Thank you so much for sharing with us .

The more I see your work the more I wish you were here ! I am following most of the approaches you suggested and will continue to do so if that makes my life simple and uncluttered.

Great job, you two! I love Honey! What a beautiful cat

I have started to binge watch your channel and can relate here. I too suffered a flood and over a year later still surrounded by boxes and clutter/stuff. I have real issues with storage as now have no "broom" cupboard or anywhere to store stuff like that - vacuum, brooms, etc. So hard to figure out. Also have no garage or anywhere outside to store anything. In fact storage is a real issue. Putting up a bookcase to try and store folders and paperwork tomorrow (handyman to help with flatpack). It emotionally takes time to be able to discard things that were ruined really and so need to go and after loosing so much you realise you have too much and it can go in an instant too and dealing with insurance etc. But loving some of the tips your channel gives and like how you do it "slowly" and not pressure into instant transformations! PS love the cat.

Well done in the bathroom. Loves to the kitty. 💜😻👍

Aww 🐈. Bless you for helping them. I moved out of Miami in 2012 so I never experienced this but I feel for them. I hope this new space will help them to live more minimally so they don’t feel the stress and visual clutter. It really can drain you. Not everyone has to be a minimalist but when i became one 8 years ago it freed up so much time to travel and go do things I love. Keep going, you can do this!

So Right April.!!...disposing of things or getting them out of your space when you live in an apt is so frustrating! I live alone ( w/my kitty ) & she can't really help - but I live in a third floor walk up on the third floor & I'm always making piles by my front door to go down to the garbage/recyclables or to my car. And listen, I am blessed to have a roof over my head...it would just be so much easier if I could walk out the door & put these things in my car. Then when I get out the door I can't park by my apt so then I have to walk to where my car is parked... Anyway, I just need to be motivated & I'm not! lol! Laundry is in the basement - I haven't done laundry in almost a year!! I know disgusting and yes, it is. Those of you who live in a house w/laundry & a car parked in your driveway or right outside - don't take it for granted! Thank you April for your patient & common sense method of helping folks get to the bottom of their messes and feel better about their lives! ♥

Oh, sweet kitty.💕

How wonderful to have that space back and a calmer start to the day. Great work!

I didn’t respond last week, but was very happy about the progress!

Oh my goodness, those people have been through so much. I feel so bad for them. Bravo to them for getting the help they needed.

You can also recycle at h&m stores, just bring a bag of clothes and they give you a coupon.

What a beautiful transformation. I’d a friend over yesterday to help me with our “office/library/shoe room/junk room” and I can now see the floor. I took stuff to a second hand shop near work today and I I feel great for it. You are great to help so many people who are overwhelmed with a space and don’t know where to start. Thanks for showing us the reality of it all. I love the cat 🐈 Stay safe and healthy. Mary, Joes wife 👏👍🙏💐🥳🐈

wow it looks great now! that's a lot of beauty products!

Great job as always 👏

This looks amazing and I love how functional and accessible everything is now. Fantastic work 🤩 It’s just the inspiration I need to continue with working on my bedroom in preparation for moving soon. Also, thank you so much for the information about recycling and safely disposing of unwanted items ♥️

brb. i just need to organize my bathroom too. seriously so satisfying. And the cabinet with the clear boxes looks so inviting! 🤩

How lovely she’ll be able to enjoy all her products now that she can easily see them all…how sweet are those cats 😍

Make sure to block that drain! Cat litter tracks, but it also clogs drains pretty easily.

I put one of the litterboxes in the tub of the bathroom we don’t use and not only does it safe space but it also tracks way less litter around!

I haven't dealt with all this trauma yet i have difficulty clearing out my storage. I've become a bag hoarder amongst other things. You're all doing an amazing job!

The first time I ever did this, I took everything out from my three medicine cabinets, three 'under sink' areas, and a drawer in the kitchen that also had stuff like aspirin, vitamins, etc. and put them on the bed. The first thing I realized was that I had THIRTEEN tubes of toothpaste all at different stages of use... seriously! If you don't take it all out and look at it, you just don't realize what you have. I don't think I bought toothpaste for two years after that.

Great work once again!

Whooooo so exciting! Can't wait for the next one.

Wow she has such nice skincare products, so jealous~ Looking forward to next week, that wall of shoes looks STUN-NING! Honey looks very good for her age, they are taking good care of her :)

Just love ❤️ how the cat got to have the shower !!! Yep 👍 always sell the car with the car parts !!!! The lady is soooo happy getting the shower and vanity unit cleaned out !!! You can tell she’s now in a roll to clean up declutter and sort out her stuff Well done April Australia 🇦🇺 🦘🦘🦘😻😻😻

Wow! Lovely

I thing I do whenever I have a shampoo or duche gel I don't like is to use it to clean the floors (if you have tiles ) you can use it to do cleaning...its just soap afterall but don't add to much or you will have too much foam.

Amazing work! You are both doing such an awesome job. This takes patience and diligence. You got this team!

Gitti is a water based nail polish she might be interested in.

We had the litter box in our guest shower as well (the whole bathroom was theirs lol) and it made it much easier
