I think putting 2 baskets on the top shelf of the skincare tower labeled 'donate' and 'expired' will help her keep from cluttering the shelf and motivate her to keep up on that. Eventually things won't expire and she can donate even more to those who can use it. Great series!!!!

Good idea 👍 placing a dustbin in the room may work too ,to throw away empty cartons immediately.

Yesss the hoarders heart channel uses this by having a declutter/donate box and trash bin readily available. I definitely think this is useful especially if you have lot that comes in and out of the house constantly. That way whenever you come across an item that no longer serves you you can donate or trash/recycle the empty’s and such.

April, I am an organizer too and what I have learned over the years is that if you stand in the middle of a long hanging rack, it's easier for the client if you make an invisible dividing line in the middle of the rack and all the clothes on either side of that line face the middle. In other words, face all the clothes to the left of the line facing right and vice versa. that way you are always looking at the front of the garment. Just an idea.

I get overwhelmed with the amount of stuff that Eunice has but I love watching you organise it. And hopefully with Eunice being able to see how much she has will make it easier for not to buy more or at least be a lot more selective. I can't imagine trying to work out what to wear/use with so many options available. ADDED : I watched some more of the vlog and see that Eunice has already started letting go of more items.

Hi April, hope you are doing well. I have a quick comment about color coordinating clothes. I personally have never done this because I have very few clothes. But, for a "collection" like this person has, I can see where that will enable her to see how many of each type of clothing she has. And, IF she wants to do a cleanout, it will really simplify things. However, the first time she does laundry and goes to put stuff away, I think you can say goodbye to the color coding, but I could be wrong. Good job wither way and she is lucky to have your help!!!

I’m really curious on how you’re going to “fix” all her extra PR products that she needs to try. The only thing I can come up with is like a vending machine type deal. When new products come in they get inserted in the back and the older products get pushed forward for her to use hopefully before they expire. 🤷‍♀️ just spitting out ideas lol

It's looking so good!!! She does well with the open shelving. I wonder if you used the tall shelf with the blankets on it, would it fit where the drawer cubbies are in the skincare room? To continue the open shelving theme. Then the extra shorter shelf you showed at the end could be used for the blankets? Just a thought to utilize that vertical space in the skincare room.

Eunice’s closet is looking good, so glad that she’s able to see everything, same for her skin care room. When I was younger working retail, we organized clothes L to R. I do my closet like this still. Start on left with sleeveless, light to dark, then short sleeve, light to dark, etc.

@lindaroyal8161 Жыл бұрын

I like Eunice, she has a great personality. I think if she was able to downsize her clothes, it would be easier to keep organized. She has so many of each category; I dont see the need for that many sweaters, that many pants, etc. Its nice she has a separate room just for her skin care products. Someone in a previous skin care video suggested dating the bottom of a product as it comes in, would help to keep up with expired ones. I like thd idea of colored dots indicating a different color per month, to keep on top of it. I also think a few nice photos or art on the walls in the SC rooom would like nice, definitely a mirror.

@marieortiz158 Жыл бұрын

I like Eunice too, but I know she likes clothes too. I don't think she is organized but that's her personality.

19:07 actually, bending sharp curves in cords like that breaks the wires inside. You’ll be better off looping them into a circle that follows the natural curve of the wire and then taking the end length and looping it in and out around the curve which holds the loops together without stressing the wires. About as long as three loops of the natural curve. (I used to build wire harnesses and have a lot of experience with electrical and data cables.)

Hi April An idea for the skin care room. Would it makes sense to move the tall large gray container with reflection door on it to the far right corner of the room. And then move the two shelves that are currently on the right to the wall straight ahead as you walk in? I’m wondering if that would make things feel more open? 😊

One of the corners to the right makes sense! Back right or front right… what is that thing anyway?

@MrCatification Жыл бұрын

It's called a 'styler' I think- seems to become more prevalent in Korea, I've even seen other videos where rentals, even studios, come with it included, as an appliance. You put clothes in there to deodorize, sanitize and even de-wrinkle, in about 30 minute cycles. I guess it comes in super handy, especially in Korea, where if you eat at a mom and pops place or a barbecue place, it can take days of airing out clothes to remove the food smell...and even then the smell will still linger on the clothes.

@olivemaycards Жыл бұрын

I was just watching a Clutterbug video about organizing styles and there is one (I forget if it’s butterfly?) that she said most children are, and I wonder if it’s the same organizing style as Eunice is. (Not being mean, as I’m sure you weren’t either!) Very visual and organized into broad macro categories, quick and easy to put away, everything labeled. No style is better or worse than any others but trying to organize hidden and micro for a visual and macro person is a recipe for failure.

@Styledandorganized Жыл бұрын

My thing about all that skin care is that there’s no way that anyone will be able to use it. I understand that she’s an influencer and that her job is to review different products BUT, in order to review a product accurately you have to use it for an extended period of time, during the time you’re working on one product, the next one on the shelves already expired! Plus, some of those products might be counterproductive to use together so a review would be totally inaccurate. The reality is that most of those products will not get used at all before they expire and it’s just soo so so wasteful. Influencers should filter the amount of PR packages they receive, or if your plan is to donate them then you have to be extremely proactive and on top of things and donate it as soon as you receive them. No one can convince me that this amount of products make sense “for some people”. It just doesnt.

Hey, as someone who works with tech (and deals with lots of cord and cable management) I would probably not recommend storing cables like that (18:45) as it can lead to damage within the cable itself. Most cords have a "natural coil" which is better for storing and maximising their lifespan. Short term it should be ok but it's not ideal if you can avoid it :)

Is it the case or I misunderstood it? If so, wouldn't be dangerous to store things there that prevent people to get into it?

Hi! This is her new place! Maybe the confusion is because the video you saw was a different video from this series. And Eunice was actually living in 2 apartments for a short time so we were going back and forth while they were waiting to find renters for the old place. Now she's all moved, but I had started this space before the rest of the home was moved. All of the videos should be in the playlist section or will have the # part on the thumbnails and titles. Hope that helps!
