Hello all!!! It’s frosty here in Ireland today! Hope you are all well and happy... For anyone concerned about charging batteries in the drawer. In Ireland we have different plugs, sockets and regulations than in other countries so it is safe. Check out any links to other videos above in the description box! Have a magical week and thanks for watching! 🎈🌹❤️

Sorry but I think boys should do what they are drawn to, which is more rugged pursuits than sewing. The Rockefellers funded 2nd wave feminism to undermine the traditional family unit for their own nefarious purposes. I used to be a feminist but not anymore. I believe traditional gender roles should be honored as much as possible. Of course everyone should have choices but pushing boys into activities that are traditionally feminine is creating weaklings among our men.

i really like that this doesn’t involve getting rid of anything to declutter, or putting it away in storage and making it less accessible. everything is still just as convenient to access when you need them, it just makes everything look better and less overwhelming. i find tips like this much more useful than ones that talk about how to just get rid of things, since there’s a lot of things that you use and need every day but still might be overwhelming to look at !

yes l agree, we can learn so much from the elderly. you could always adopt a grandparent, and listen to the stories about riding 11-12 hours in a buggy drawn by a horse. Going to town once a month and getting supplies. The millennium generation do not use their imagination and they are entertained all the time. what are they going to do when the Comet gets close enough to cause a EMP? The Corina is really man made virus from the flu virus. It how the NWO is coming in control. In China the 1 millions of people that died, it was nothing to corina. The 5-G network had just been put in that city, and they used it a a bio weapon. If you crank up the 5G, it will deplete the oxygen in your organs and when he gets to your brain it will cause people to fall down dead. Don't get tested for the covid, on the end of the swab is a Nano chip. it can track you, and it will change your DNA, and everything a Microchip can do. This is the Mark of the beast. when it first came out Bill Gated had it patent and its HR 060606. Now they are not mad in the image of our creator. The false prophet is Pope Francis. The Rapture is suppose to happen in Spring of 2021. Repent and know Jesus, he is my only hope. he loves us and he came to set us free. Shalom

So many minimalists and frugal bloggers just get rid of EVERYTHING, and it just makes me a little sick that stuff that you paid good money for, and you know will have a use sometime, they just toss out! You have an uncluttered abode, yet still keep things. I love this, and kudos to you. P.S. I noticed at the end that you brought that candle into your bedroom, that I was afraid you'd just gotten rid of...appreciate that too. It just seems that some people's ideas of minimalism borders on waste and filling up landfills! Like, you know they aren't going to "pass on" a half-used candle, they would just toss it. I really appreciate your aesthetic.

Try vitamin B1 for anxiety. Also magnesium. Try an Epsom salts bath before bed. And B6 for better focus if you need that. Niacin can also help with depression. Get outside and get some sun and fresh air daily. Nature is very calming. If you stay busy it helps. Fix things around your house, maintain the things you own. There is still barter, volunteering, and making things for yourself that you need. Learn a skill like a hobby, like: sewing, knitting, cooking from scratch, baking sourdough bread, sprouting seeds, fermenting sauerkraut or Kim chi, making soap, making candles, creating some artwork that you like, plant a garden, grow some fresh cut flowers for flower arrangements, go foraging for local plants, learn to fish, learn to hunt. Learn carpentry and build a shelf, or chair or table or wooden toys. Learn to play an instrument, to sing, to whistle, to play the mouth harp (very tiny instrument you can just keep in your pocket.) You can learn to cut your family's hair, how to groom a dog, how to detail a car, how to change your own oil and air filters, how to give a manicure to someone in your household. Get all your learning curve done during the lockdowns, make your mistakes, have fun with it. When this is all over, you can earn some money right away doing any of these things, instead of waiting for some big company to get their act together.

We have 7 degrees Fahrenheit and a nor'easter hitting us - snowing for 17 hours straight and we have 11 hours more to go - it comes with the territory, so I am not complaining - gives one time to bing watch your channel - which I love. Clutter - I have several sheds in the back and I took down everything that was not of use in my house and put them in the shed; after 6 months, if I didn't go after them - gave them away. Go shopping with a list so you don't "pick" up more clutter for the house and if you really want it, wait two days and if you still "need" it, buy it. In the summer, take what you can out of your house, make the house empty (minus stove and refrigerators and such) and bring back in only the necessities and at the same time rearrange things, don't put things back where you got them from, try to look for new/better locations. The things you don't bring back in the house, leave outside for a tag/garage/yard sale.

Hi 🙋🏻‍♀️. Just wanted to tell you that bench you have all the chargers in now is called a Telephone bench. Back when telephones were popular inside the home in the USA they had one phone installed in the home and would set it up on a table and chair but then someone designed a telephone table and it was a all in one bench like you’ve got. A place for the telephone a place to sit and chat and a drawer for the phone book and pen and paper to take down messages with. So I think it’s neat you taking yours and turning it into a charging station.

Totally agree with the comments section about simply removing many fridge magnets except for maybe three, the eye likes taking in less too. It makes the kitchen look less busy.

I like all your ideas and do many myself. I like to use baskets and have side tables or end stands with storage. I also like to put my produce in or on cute plates or bowls. I also hate cords and love that you are recharging as far from your bedroom as you can. I have a lot of neutral tones too but I do have little splashes of color here and there, but I am putting out less decor than I used to yet still enjoying changing things up for the seasons. I like to put dish soap in a glass soap dispenser so it looks better than the plastic bottles. I keep my nail polishes and make up in baskets, so I can always put them away but not have to drag out a bunch of items. Your home feels very relaxing. Thanks for sharing.

I need to take a lesson on discipline and realise I don’t need that much wool near at hand !!. I really look forward to your calming videos you make it all so serene.

Lovely video. That hack for hiding all the charging cables was excellent. I actually think a little pop of colour does not necessarily create visual clutter. I know you like a neutral palette in your home (as I do myself) but I think colourful cushions, or a colourful throw, could still look good on your sofa.

That's called an 'accent' colour, I believe. So my living room is charcoal grey with wood/browns/taupe and my 'pop of colour' is burnt orange - cushions, candles, some dried Chinese lanterns flowers. Thing is not to overdo it!

I have been watching your videos for a couple hours now and just wanted to tell you how lovely your home is. I can not believe anyone lives in a home that looks straight from a magazine or ad for Pinterest. How long did it take you to get it so perfect without buying anything new? Simply lovely. Your voice would be amazing on a meditation soundtrack. Have you thought of making a meditation video?

Thank you so much for that tip of keeping things in sets of THREE! That idea really excited me, I'm going to try it when I clean my room soon. Also liked the tip of putting whatever you can in trays or baskets etc to make them look more organized or to conceal them, and the tip of keeping countertops as clear as possible. I'm going to implement those 3 things in my room! Love this video.

Great tips! I need to find more baskets for storage. They're a bit hard to come by where I live, but I collect as I can. I am not a naturally neat person and I have so many hobbies and interests, which all come with 'stuff'. This inspires me to go through my house and try to contain things in pretty baskets and boxes. God bless!

Wood trunks, with a lid, hide a ton of clutter. Closed, can be used as a bench or a coffee table, bedside table. Use baskets on top of closed trunk for even more storage. Easy to move around with swivel wheels on bottom. Put plastic bins inside, and even messy items can be stored inside. My wood trunks are painted to match my decor, and are beautiful. I even used a big old trunk to stack my firewood inside.

Many great tips but I agree with everyone concerned about fire safety. I live in Sweden and we have great regulations when it comes to plugs etc but you still hear about chargers becoming overheated and setting houses on fire. Just seems like two unnecessary risks putting them in a drawer and charging them over night just so that it looks tidy...

Ah! I think there's been fairy action again in Fairyland Cottage...anyone else see the jar move back at 4.50min. Might have been if you edited the footage but that's not half as magical as fairy action!! I love uncluttered spaces. I too live in an old cottage with very little storage space so there's an art to creating calming spaces that are soothing to the senses and not chaotic. You achieve this so well Niamh. x
