hey what's going on it is Steph here from stephjking.com coming to you today
from my kitchen because today I'm conquering my kitchen I'm going to be
decluttering everything that's in here so if you and you welcome my name is
Steph and I'm currently going through a massive declutter of my entire home so
if you like that kind of stuff then you will love all the videos that I've
just been posting recently and there's still some more to come so hit that
subscribe button below and tick that notification bell so you can get
notified next time I upload I'm gonna be doing this one a little bit
differently to the ones that I've done in the past in the previous videos I've
been pulling everything out and putting it into one spot I'm gonna do the same
sort of thing with the kitchen but I'm going to do it in smaller sections so
the first section I'm gonna do is my drawers that has like all my utensils in
it then I'm gonna focus on the cupboards up above here so they have things like
plates and cups and Tupperware and then the cupboards down below which has all
the gadgets and cooking utensils and bits and pieces that we've just bought
and half the stuff we probably don't even use so I'm looking forward to this
one but let's get straight into it now let's go
okay this is everything out of the drawers all the utensils there and then
some plastic clip bags aluminum foil tea towels some table runners and then
batteries and all bits and pieces over here
now that I have everything pulled out of the drawers I'm just going to organize
go through them figure out what we can donate what we want to keep and then I'm
gonna start putting them back into the drawers hopefully with a little bit less
stuff and a little bit more neater and organized
okay I've just finished going through the first top two drawers so the first
one is all like our cutlery so I took those sharp knives out we don't need
them we've already got a block of sharp knives so we're going to get rid of
those I found a number of peelers a few utensils that we're probably not going
to use and all that stuff we're going to donate or give away as well second
drawer this is the stuff that we're going to keep I've just put it in there
at the moment just so I can keep it separate from all the stuff that we're
going to get rid of and then I'll organize that a little bit better later
so now I just need to do the bottom two drawers
the draws have now been completed this is all the stuff that we're getting rid of
or donating I have a couple of details here that are a bit old and scraggy now
so I'm just gonna cut them up and use them as cleaning rags and then over here
just some bits and bobs so like batteries and all the sticky stuff that
you put on your walls that can come off that hopefully don't damage the walls
and yeah all that I think I just need to find a little like fishing tackle box or
like a little compartment box that I can put that stuff into and then I'm going
to move it into the pantry that's in the or the cupboard I should say that's in
the what do you call it laundry and then this stuff is being moved as well these
are going to go into the garage with all the other tools and that's going to go
into my top drawer next to my computer then top drawer so all our cutlery I
didn't really have to go through the cutlery because we've already got a
limit on what we have there and all of that is sufficient we often need to wash
our stuff to use them again so we're pretty good there just a sharp knifes
and scissors some stainless steel straws my tea strainer second drawer this is
all the utensils that we're going to be keeping I am gonna organize some
compartments or drawers something to go in there just to make it look a little
bit more organized but I just wanted to keep it all in one place for now third
drawer so these are our reusable baking sheets we're trying to use up the
element in fall and the cling wrap that we have left over and then we've got
some resealable bags that we're trying to use up because we're trying to get
rid of all the plastic and whatnot from Ohio
and there's some beeswax paper that we use instead of the cling wrap and then
the last drawer just add tea towels some stuff for the barbecue and some big bin
liners for the big bins that are outside so this is the drawer that had like all
the batteries and bits and pieces in it so I'm gonna be not putting them back in
there and instead going into the cupboard into the laundry I'm now going
to be moving on to the cupboards up the top you behind me so one of them has our
plates and our bowls we actually don't need to do anything in there we've got
enough that's actually really good for Tom and I and also when we have some
people over if anything we probably don't have enough but it is sufficient
for now then we have a cupboard of alcohol I obviously don't drink so most
of that is just when Tom's been traveling and he's just picked up some
duty-free alcohol so we just keep those up there won't go through that don't
need to just eventually over the year or so that will get taken care of and the
other two cupboards have our glasses cups and Tupperware and those are the
two that I'm pretty much going to be focusing on I can definitely get in
there pull everything out go through it see what we can donate and what we
actually only need to keep
so there was a few shot passes so I'm going to move that up with the alcohol
and these are our coffee mugs so Tom and I pretty much have our favorites
he loves the ones that we got from New Zealand and the big one at the back
there one of them is a little bit cracked so I don't know if you can see
that but we're going to get rid of that one because he's already got one there
so we're gonna give that one away see if anyone wants it and then my two favorite
ones are my minions and a or and then I have these two that I whip out at
Christmas this penguin one does make me happy so I don't know but I only use it
around Christmas so it's kind of feel like it's a bit of a waste only having a
coffee cup of Christmas but poor Santa I'm gonna give him away and then we've
got these four here which is good for when we have guests over but I don't
know we've kind of got enough I think I don't know I'm tossing up about that but
if anything we're not keeping the fall we'll probably get rid of two of them
moving on to our glasses so those ones are going to keep these small ones we're
going to keep because when we have guests over they're the ones that we
normally drink out of these medium ones we never drink out of so they are all
going this one is going never gets used this one I actually use every single day
although it has Center on it I bought it a couple of years ago and it is plastic
so I don't know if I should just get rid of it and just start using like one of
these other bigger ones don't know tossing up about that one too
so
alright decision made they're gonna go a little bit sad so this is what we are
left with that's it nothing on the top shelf so we've got six months and seven
glasses which kind of my OCD gets super frustrated about that but oh well
I've just finished sorting through the Tupperware this is the keep pile so had
like six of these ones are the purple lids so I just reduced that to fall
these little red ones can't remember when we use them last so I'm just gonna
keep them for now and then if we don't use them again shortly then I'm gonna
get rid of them these little ones we do use those little round things I use as
well those ones at the back definitely use and these ones as well had four of
those so I'm just gonna keep two of them oh I like we had five of them anyway
this is the donation pile so what I'm thinking is because of reduced fat and
reduced all the cups and glasses I'm going to be able to fit it up here
instead of putting it into a separate cupboard in the corner there winning
drawers done top cupboards done now the bottom cupboards and there's quite a bit
of stuff in the back corners of these cupboards and most of it we don't even
use so I feel like I'm just gonna put it into the donut path straight away but
I'll pull everything out anyway and we'll see how I go because the donate
pile is yes taking up a lot of room on my kitchen bench so I'll pull it out and
hopefully it will all fit on the other sides of the bench
we will see that just has our rubbish bin in it so you don't need to worry
about that this cupboard it goes all the way back in there and there's lots of
stuff in there look more top away awesome so I need to clean all that out
then under this side we've got a few bits and pieces some of this stuff like
I said don't use so is going to go straight into the donation pile
I just finished wiping it out so I'm ready to put everything back in so I'm
getting rid of that keeping the kettle keeping these pots this little pin I
like but I'm probably going to buy a new one because it's about to break that I'm
selling keeping the toaster keeping this pot getting rid of the extra lids
keeping the toaster getting rid of this getting rid of this getting rid of this
a couple waffle makers in the back there I'm getting rid of and also this cutting
board because I know over in that cupboard which I'm yet to pull out
there's other there's one other cutting board that we just always use so we're
just going to keep one
okay so out of that whole pile this is or we're keeping
don't have it I've finally gotten through the kitchen actually don't think
the before-and-afters or really do it that much justice it's not until that
you see the donation pile that you realize just how much stuff there
actually was I don't know how it all fit in there and to be honest actually I do
it was that corner cupboard that big black hole that I swear would just hide
everything away but it's all done now I'm really happy I hope this is
motivated you to get stuck in and get into the kitchen and just get rid of the
stuff that you know well be using and yeah now I just need to get rid of
office staff if you are new here then I would love it if you did subscribe I
will leave a link for you here and until my next video which is another massive
decluttering one I'm moving upstairs to the linen cupboard I will leave a couple
of other videos on this side for you to check out take care and I will see you
next time bye
