59-year-old widow Sylvia Stewart is struggling under the remnants of decades of out-of-control shopping. A self-confessed bargain hunter, Sylvia can easily spend up to £1000 per week, often buying multiples of the same items if it's at a good price. She estimates that she has spent around £100,000 on her hoard - amassing everything from furniture and ornaments, to dried flowers and empty milk bottles -but what used to give her pleasure has now turned into a living hell. Embarrassed by the state of her house, and with her son David desperate for his mother to change, Sylvia is determined to turn around her home and life.

This interior designer is the worst sort of designer - the moment she started pushing her own ideas without really listening to the client shows it. Her design in the other episode made a small space feel even more claustrophobic. And anyone who uses “squishy” as a descriptive in a professional setting is also a red flag.

Agree completely, as soon as she said her own preference was for colour jarring, the client became irrelevant. Especially considering if you’ve ever looked at her very popular website, no colour clashing in site. Surely you work with what the client likes but could never design themselves

Yes, that was entirely unnecessary. Yes, the house should be emptied and than the stuff should be selected what can be reused in the new setting. I THINK IT IS NICE TO HAVE A BIT OF A HISTORY in the house, things that have a negative vibe should go but other things that remind you of your long gone loved ones or happy events should stay. There are a number of things that are not mentioned in this episode, one of those is the constant bombardment to reuse, recycle, not to send rubbish to landfill. I also have a bit of a hoarding problem, not as near as what Sylvia has but a problem nevertheless. I am trying to reduce my junk mostly but every time I throw something in the bin I feel enormous amount of guilt and there is always this thought: I might need it again and than I will have to buy it and by the previous action I contribute to pollution, a bit of a catch 22 really.

A designer who has very set ideas about dark and wacky and does not want to listen to her customer, a woman who has developed a hoarding problem due to coercive past relationships and yet is being forced to sell her wedding and engagement rings from the man that did make her happy. And why was she being forced to sell all her nice furniture, and such a lovely big house should be light in colour scheme to make the most of the space. Surely the idea was to get rid of the hoard not deprive her of everything.

The rooms did turn out lovely and Sylvia was happy in the end, so I guess that's all that really matters.

To be very honest, it's quite appalling to see that the interior designer didn't really sit down with her clients to show colour palettes for them to choose & discuss options in order to reach a mutual agreement btwn them. Instead it was all "talk" mostly from the designer mostly with her own vision & style of "comfort living", whilst exploring from one room to the next. Besides, not only was Sylvia not given the opportunity to seek a counselor for help, she was also not given the chance to learn decluttering & organising her stuff on her own: What to not keep (recycling, selling, throwing) & what to keep. Have to consider that sometimes "not knowing what to do with stuff" may also contribute to hoarding habit. Since it is also a blessing to see how determined she was to gain confidence moving forward from her past like depression, I wish I knew how Sylvia is doing now but as a believer of Christ Jesus to understand that there is always a daily battle to keep getting up from falling, may God be with her in every situation.

This is not going to work. The hoarders are traumatized by loss. That's why they surround themselves with inanimate objects, to which they are emotionally attached. It's a kind of bulk which protects them from the brutal world. Contempt will make it all worse. Adding more feelings of loss is going to make it worse. Plus, the "interior designer" is outright rude: I choose my own colours in my own home and do not ask your opinion, thanks.✋ She hides beneath Barbie's hair, but in my humble opinion she is a clot and believes this house should be her's.

This was an interesting one and she is such a nice lady with a lovely family. She is clever and understood the reasons - first a man who made her destroy things from the previous relationship etc. The biggest issue is 90% of hoarders/compulsive buyers backslide. Somehow she needs not to buy anything else. Also most of the things we buy have a very low resale value. I asked a luxury furniture shopw what they might buy back some of hte items I bought from then and it was peanuts compared with what I spent so I kept it (although I have large bare surfaces so no hoarding issue and every one of the makeovers has far too much stuff in it for my liking - I will not even tolerate a house plant never mind loads of them!

She wouldn’t be rich if she was paying the mortgage on a 7 bedroom house. People can assume that you must have money when you ‘own’ your own home when in reality you can be worse off because you’re paying a large mortgage

My focus on things started as Sylvia with others forcing me to "get rid of " in relationships. It has to be the person's choice to downsize, otherwise, it affects someone in very many ways. Sylvia got a very comfortable sanctuary and seems very happy now.

I knew how this was gonna go as soon as I saw that designer's overcoat, high contrast, oversized. I didn't mind the wallpaper because I love libraries and and books but it was so busy you couldn't even tell there was a buffet and breakfast setting in front of it. And who would want to sit and enjoy a cup of tea on those spindly chairs? All spit and polish. At least it was clear she had plenty of money if she wanted to replace it.

When you don’t have the money , you don’t hoard. Give to charity. Better yet, volunteer, you won’t h.ave time to shop.

I would never let the designer near my house. Too much unnecessary clutter for useless decorations. I would like my house to be clean and neat, not like some cheap interior shop

Wish we had a program like that in America. They have a hoarders show but they just throw everything in the garbage and the hoarder has such a harder time with that process understandably.

@ERRYKA09 Жыл бұрын

The American show is much better. There's always a psychiatrist working with the hoarder. After the show, hoarders are provided a therapy. And what's more, they don't throw away all good furniture.

I’ve passed on many or the “new “ things in yard sale free boxes. The show needs a new “decorator”. The one they have now seems clueless.

I think that the idea of moving ALL of the hoard to a warehouse is a fantastic idea. It will clearly show the home owner their home empty, as opposed to dangerous clutter. And it displays just how MUCH stuff they actually have accumulated but never use. That is positive, as the home owner will see the potential in their de-cluttered home for once. As for this particular designer, I personally feel that she is not that great a designer; when the program was displaying some of the past things that she had done, I was cringing. So I did worry for this woman. But glad that she was happy in the end, and that is what counts.
