any ideas on what i should do to spruce up the big blank wall in the playroom?! i cannot decide for the life of me 😅

Leave it blank and see how you feel in a few months. Blank open un-decorated walls are like margins around text on a page. They let you focus on the other focal points without too much busy stuff.

I love all the episodes in this series! There is nothing more satisfying than finally clearing all the clutter that we hide in cabinets which constantly stress us when we are reminded of them.

All the paper towel and toilet paper packaging can be recycled with grocery bags for drop off at your grocery store. Great job. Sheets can go to a dog shelter as well as old towels.

I've watched a few of your minimizing videos, and I want to say how much I enjoy them. I've watched so many videos where people aren't actually minimizing anything, which isn't motivating at all. The goal in my house is open empty spaces. It's reduced cleaning time. It's lesser things TO organize and clean. I love that your motivation style is along those same lines. Keep doing what you're doing! :-)

I am here for a good decluttering, don’t get me wrong, but something I’ve noticed in the community is a lot of people struggle with what to keep vs get rid of aspect. You did not seem to struggle with those decisions or we weren’t aware of them as you filmed. People want to sympathize and know they’re not the only one. By all means keeps up the great work and I hope after the whole process is finished you feel light as a feather and can breathe easier. Good luck!
Absolutely love the way you filmed this video!! You did sooo good!!! 👏

I would leave the wall as it is. As for the plaids, I would use sturdy clothes hangers and hang the ones you dont use in the closet. Put the extra pillows in a basket underneath and you have gained 2 more empty baskets 😊
Well done! It looked so daunting, but you went in and conquered it all! It will be so much easier to keep tidy now, plus make it more fun for the kids to play. 🙌🏻

The large, framed photos of your kids might actually fit better on that large wall instead of where they are now, scale-wise. As a senior on a fixed income, toys are expensive. Check with the grandparents (and family and friends) before getting rid of toys. Grandparents need toys at their house for the kids to play with when they're there. Animal shelters need towels, sheets, blankets. Check with them. Donate to women's shelters or boys/girls clubs. Too much ends up in the landfull at Goodwill. Everything looks wonderful.
