02:18An open-plan kitchen and place for the last couple of years.
02:19For the last couple of years, the clutter has just taken over.
02:21And he's really, really struggling to find his way out.
02:22So that's why we're here.

02:30Lovely.
02:31The family are out, so we can have a rummage round to see what needs
02:37sorting.
02:38In the Victorian home, there's a large living room on the ground floor.
02:42planned kitchen and playroom on the lower level and upstairs there's two bedrooms and an office
02:49oh my goodness oh it's not it can't be that what i like the way they've built a room divide with
02:56stuff yeah that is the room device is that a bike bmx to be precise camping gear do you know it's
03:03such a shame though because look how big this face is and look how beautiful this is by the way
03:08a library of books and you can't get to any of it oh look mama how cute is that what is that oh my
03:18god it's actually the lamp oh it's from selfridges now she likes it oh snobby over it exactly i think
03:27it's just a classic overwhelm situation you come in and you're like i don't know where to start with
03:31this you've got no systems so it's like well even if i wanted to put it away where would i
03:36put it you reckon that's the story there might be storage under there oh wouldn't that be good if
03:40it's a seat box you broke it now you're gonna have to fix it now he's gonna fix it at last
03:52as rob and you and head upstairs to explore down in the basement me and dilly check out the open
03:58plan kitchen and playroom oh wow i don't know what i expected but i didn't expect this i feel
04:06like it's an amazing space but what is it is this where they all chill out is this a playroom is it
04:12supposed to be a lounge area then what are the rooms upstairs i just don't think it's been thought
04:16through properly no oh my god is that you look at me yeah what did you say oh my god oh my god
04:27next to inspect is dad craig's bedroom
04:30oh right clothes so i'm guessing this is craig's room we've got this lovely big wardrobe that can't
04:39be used because they're using it as a they've got a floor drobe in front of it this is nice he must be
04:45pretty into his guitar if he's got it mounted on the wall like this by the dust you can tell this hasn't
04:50been pulled out in a while oh yeah we are dealing with a snowboarding rock star i think by looks things
04:56who does not know how to use a wardrobe look at this kitchen i mean that is a dream kitchen it's so
05:02pretty so much work surface space which doesn't happen often like they're always lacking surface
05:08space i mean this is the surface space is covered but it's there nonetheless underneath the nail varnishes
05:15and the wheatabix being a single parent is sometimes impossible often the last thing you do is tidy
05:23the house however if your house is full of clutter and you don't know where to start find one tiny
05:29space focus on that remove everything from that space and put back what you love it works oh the
05:39office this is definitely hq in here wow oh this is just stressful i would not want to work in here
05:50this just feels a little claustrophobic yeah it might be an office where you just throw
05:55paperwork just shut the door and forget about it this whole room is one giant filing cabinet yeah yeah
06:02and it's all getting quite dusty yeah you know what you can do with these post-it notes got a keyboard
06:07you can pop these in between the keys to get all like the crumbs out no way the sticky bit just gets
06:13rid of all the crumbs or any bits that have dropped in you see you see all this yeah i wonder how much
06:19bacteria there is hidden away keyboards have more bacteria on them than your toilet seat typically
06:25you're joking dearly last room in the house come on coming oh very colorful oh my very bright what
06:35where's the floor space do you know what this this upsets me yeah this is so impractical strange
06:42configuration no wonder that it feels like there's toys everywhere because there's such narrow areas
06:47to play on there is a toy box though but you can't open it seems like the theme in this house doesn't
06:52get some storage but cover it in other stuff this whole house i think all i can keep saying in my
07:00head is what a shame because it's big there is space there is storage there could be so much done with
07:07this to help them as a family a lot and i do think that craig is obviously struggling being on his own
07:13yeah and there's a it's overwhelming yeah we need to bring the love back to this house
07:17yeah oh they're coming oh hello hello hello hi good night you're gorgeous girl is there a cuddle is
07:28there a high five you can have a high five high five craig it's so nice to meet you how are you feeling
07:35excited yeah that's what we want to hear
07:38i'm a single dad of two wonderful little girls called mary and wren i'm a boo-boo hat
07:53they are the light of my life i love you dad i love you bunny my daddy is quite funny and quite silly he
08:01lets us have piggybacks do these fit you uh no life with the three of us is chaotic things get lost
08:10all the time where is it somewhere around okay the mess it clutters my mind as well as the house i just
08:19get overwhelmed by how much is here it's grown to the point that it's too much i need help with it now
08:27the hardest thing is doing it on my own 11 years ago craig married the love of his life lois lois was
08:34a force of nature we brightened up our worlds and it was just great to be around it but when youngest
08:41santa rem was born four years ago she is very cute isn't she life turned upside down for all of them
08:49lois was just still exhausted she went to the doctors and that's when they found cancer and they
08:56said that it is stage four we were hoping that we'd get 18 months and we got eight
09:06my mother-in-law and sister-in-law are one of the main reasons why i've managed to cope
09:10lois and i were really close when she died i had to get to know craig as a person without lois there
09:18yeah we're really close now it's like a brother to me he's he's amazing craig is an incredible
09:23gracious human being the one negative as far as i can see it's the state of his house is that
09:29dreadful to say that lois and craig enabled each other in terms of their organization but now it's
09:36become very difficult since part of the cog is missing i want to go in there and clean and reorder
09:42everything but i don't want it to seem as if i'm interfering in his life do you know where that
09:51silver vest thing's gone no if i had a magic wand i could change the mess to nothing no mess i want
10:02the house to be calm and serene and a haven for the girls what it is currently is none of those
10:13me and the team know this family are going to need all our support this week
10:18i know it's been a really difficult last few years for you guys and we've been having a look
10:22around and you've got the most incredible house so much potential it just looks like you're time
10:28poor and it's all got on top of you would you say that's fair oh 100 yeah daddy's the messiest by
10:35the way oh my gosh daddy you are being out oh i'm being just like strung up for this
10:41that are the absolute message straight under the bus and the big pile of doom the big pile of doom
10:47no this is why big pile of doom is the living room i mean it's literally everything everything i
10:52haven't dealt with it really is the big pile of yeah yeah oh yeah for us to be able to help you
10:57reorganize we would need you to let go of at least 50 percent of what's in the house really yeah
11:04there's just so much stuff there's no time like the present i feel like we should just get in there
11:09and you girls should we start packing up the house and make it all completely clear yeah let's go
11:16all right let's get the ball rolling guys
11:22should we pack all of this up yes when that's what we're talking about yeah
11:30we've just 12 hours to help the buffton family pack up all their belongings
11:35there you go mary you are doing a fantastic job
11:38everyone needs to chip in let's get all of this out of here
11:44what has happened in here craig um this was my storage that was in storage and now
11:52why did you take it out of storage because it's just too expensive to keep it and then
11:57obviously like lois got ill and once she died it was i don't have time for this because i've got
12:04the girls to look after i mean i don't even know what's in there anymore because there might
12:07be bits that are sentimental there might be bits of something of lois's that i've forgotten is in
12:13there and does that scare you it's not scary it's just it's hard to look back at it again
12:20that because there's just so much sentimental stuff and so much of our plans
12:24that aren't aren't gonna happen anymore yeah yeah it's really difficult i think we are really gonna
12:33have to support craig because there will be things inside all of that clutter that will be very
12:39difficult to process i think the reason he hasn't seen a lot of it for years is because he hasn't
12:44wanted to face it lois will be with us in this fresh start but we just need to build again
12:50you can do it go on that's it
12:55go all the toys in the box what we've got underneath there guys
13:01um a lot of stuff do you think you've got too many toys in this room yeah yeah i was thinking we could
13:07have a bunk bed so we could like save space very clever idea oh i forgot completely about that
13:18mommy's that sketch mommy seemed like she was an amazing lady she was she was a teacher she was
13:24a teacher she was a teacher i'm gonna follow in her footsteps and be a teacher like her oh that'd be
13:30lovely the way the girls are handling this situation is just unbelievably brave they're so
13:38strong and they're so lovely and you know i'm recovering from cancer myself and this all feels
13:44very very close to home but i just need to focus on the family and just make sure that this is
13:49the best possible makeover i can give them
13:51there are whole rooms still to box up so craig calls in reinforcements we need all hands on deck
14:03come and help come pack we need everybody on this
14:09right what's next what should we do next paperwork i don't even want to look at that no
14:15what about this massage chair hmm what's that
14:18what was the home like when lois was here um um busy yeah cluttered oh so it was cluttered already
14:28oh yeah right but she always said she wanted her house to be really busy and and warm and full of
14:35collectibles but like it just didn't quite feel like this organized chaos it was organized yeah exactly
14:42it was organized chaos so now it's just chaos you look where you're going well done
14:49i don't know if we could get any more in here no it's really too heavy isn't it do you know what
14:53this is they can put makeup on it or that i was thinking they practiced their hair on it he looks
14:58like you're giving birth it's a hairy one he's a hairy one so it's a 10 pound head
15:05head of bed do you know what i was going to ask you actually because what was he like before
15:12all of this happened well a completely different person you know really interested in loads of
15:18projects planning adventures he's got this deep brown laugh and he did it the other day and i thought oh
15:26he's back because he hasn't laughed in so long not not that laugh oh and also i've never felt
15:33comfortable coming in and clearing up because i didn't want to look like i was judging or interfering
15:37yeah so i'd come down the way it is now and i wouldn't do anything and inside i was like
15:43tidy up and bleach it this could be the beginning of like something fresh it's going to be amazing
15:50i'm hoping there will be lots of happy times ahead for craig but for now there are still two more
15:55rooms to pack up it's absolutely mad oh we've got mary's pregnancy test that's umbilical cord that's
16:03the umbilical cord yeah that's lois's
16:09i think lois put this together for you makes me feel sad
16:15it has been a long day but the buffton's house is finally clear and four van loads of their possessions
16:24head off to the warehouse bye bye bye bye do you remember that and it's huge like it's massive
16:40the family have two big days ahead as they make their way to the warehouse where every single thing

19:09king die every wimpy kid go do you love reading yeah go room on the brooms going what's your favorite
19:17thing about reading the watch go mary yes we can whiz through this whole warehouse mary is brilliant
19:27at making decisions and she knows what she wants and what she doesn't want once children realize
19:31what they get back they realize how much space they've got it then helps them for the next time
19:37you go to do a sort out because they know what they're going to get from it right what are we
19:42getting rid of there's just so many isn't there it's stuff that lois really enjoyed reading that is
19:47not my scene i think this this must have been lois's oh i think that's her storybook is it for the girls
19:56yeah this one's the first one that she wrote i think she wanted it to be published but oh never
20:01really got around to it oh yeah how incredible she wrote a book this one is alvira and the rotten
20:08tooth brats do you mind if i'll show her yeah yeah i don't want to mary have you seen mummy's stories
20:15she wrote no look at this you read it because i you know her writing better than me they came with
20:23pitchforks branded wailing and chanting and scary and yelling she tapped her nose wiggled her
20:31toes and vanished in front of their eyes oh my gosh what a great story how lovely that mummy wrote
20:40that we spent a lot of time talking to bereavement specialists who advised us to focus on what they're
20:47going to keep what they're going to bring home rather than what they're going to have to let go of
20:51and so that's the kind of guidance that we are following well mary i feel like we did your section
20:57really well should we do a one more sprint yeah see who needs the gym when you're sorting your life out
21:12hey i know me yes look at all of this space mary all of this space is going to be back in your house
21:22now isn't that amazing yes come on on the other side of town morning oh hi what time do you call
21:33this i'm already making a start come on chop chop we've got a lot of two the team are planning how to
21:38make the best use of the family's newly cleared rooms oh how amazing is this just delighted we can see
21:44the carpet look at it now i have an idea for this space hit me upstairs craig is squished into this
21:55little office space i'm thinking to bring that office down here office in the living room it is
22:00going to be a hidden office so my plan is to make a large unit here yeah yeah and inside that unit will
22:09be his office so then when he's using his office goes in and then when it's time to turn it back
22:15into the living space and you don't want to see your office there'll be four doors which will bifold
22:21fold together and close away and then it just vanishes so a convertible space wow i mean that's
22:27pretty mega if you can do that i love it better start building while rob starts measuring up
22:34ewan works his magic on the stairs carpet mary and wren have done a very good job of colouring
22:40in the stairs here so i'm gonna have a go at these with some shaving cream you can just use the cheap
22:48stuff this works really well even with permanent pen i just lather it on so the shaving foam can start
22:54to work its magic right i'm just gonna leave that soak in for 10 minutes just keep rinsing it off and
22:59you should see yeah i think that's starting to come away there we go no one would ever know that
23:06these stairs had been drawn on eight nine ten ready or not here i come why is this bed so messy
23:23back at the warehouse i need craig to sort through his pile of doom
23:27i mean what do you want me to be brutal about because there's so much okay this table here
23:32originally this is just sort of a hobby that went too far drone how often do you fly this baby
23:41it's great it's just you sort of you see something on instagram or like youtube and be like oh this will
23:49make me happy so i'll buy it and then it turns up and it's a really expensive drone that you can't fly
23:56it took me a really long time to realize that i was buying stuff to just
24:00get the dopamine hit of it it's what's underneath it isn't it it's trying to figure out like
24:06we need to find craig yeah so much of the stuff that's here is
24:11oh this will make me happy and it did for about 20 minutes this is thousands of pounds worth of
24:17equipment yeah i mean for it to just be sitting there is such a waste this is it now craig yeah
24:22let's wipe these tables clean really looking forward to it and we're going to make loads of
24:26blooming money because i've never seen so much expensive equipment in someone's house
24:33this is so great
24:34the team have an idea to transform craig's old office into a magical haven for the girls
24:52what is happening oh i do like i like the color i feel like those girls really deserve some magical
24:57amazing space yeah and we've never done anything like that like a reading room like a dedicated just
25:03to books while ewan starts painting rob has an idea he hopes the girls are gonna love
25:09i'm gonna take off this door and i'm going to turn your normal door into a bookcase but it's not your
25:17average bookcase it's going to be the secret entrance to their magical reading room
25:22using a circular saw rob measures and cuts a hole in the center one door with a really big hole in it
25:33then he places the frame around the bookcase now we're ready to see if this fits
25:40bookcase in a door
25:42i'm a little sunflower sunflower sunflower i'm ready to sound flower
25:57shall i wear this out no oh why not because your your face looks a little small at the warehouse oh my
26:08gosh it's early afternoon and we still have so much to do so i've asked sue and cas to come along
26:18and help look at all the tea towels look they're disgusting oh yeah you're here we start by tackling
26:26the christmas section lois loved christmas did she it was her thing oh she really liked pale colors so
26:35whites and blacks and grays what about you are you color or are you oh color all the way yeah
26:40the more sparkle and color the better i'm more on cassie's side than i am on lois's she would
26:45thoroughly argue against it yeah these ones so low when she found out she was ill she bought
26:51baubles to give to the girls for every year until till they're 18 18. she's full of every single
26:58year for the girls yeah oh how lovely so this was another thing lois would write everything that
27:04happened at christmas for every year oh gosh every christmas is in there oh my gosh oh wow that's
27:10a long one i know yeah that was her last christmas oh that's why any good memories from that one
27:17oh no oh i'm not gonna read that it'll make me cry i'll show you the last bit
27:29so if it was the last one and i sincerely hope it isn't it was the best christmas i've ever had
27:35because it was smothered in love and magic as all christmases should be
27:40it's okay it's okay it's just it's just crap not the plan
27:59even though this is really difficult to deal with at the same time we get to bring christmas back
28:11to what lois loved and every year we celebrate lois and how much she loved christmas but without silver
28:18but none of that with all the color and she'd be looking down going ugh it's disgusting guys
28:26the families start to look forward and decide together which decoration should be donated
28:32i think go okay great yeah yeah i think that's a good shout and now we've just got our favorite
28:38christmas feats and we're gonna have space to put them up right this is it this is the final push

30:08oh this is good yeah really good do you know what i love the most craig i haven't seen you smile like
30:12that since we started this process so that is what we're working towards that is just made my absolute
30:18night i honestly cannot wait to get back to the house i can't wait to be a part of them rebuilding
30:26their life in a space where they can feel they've got a home because the last few years they haven't
30:31felt like they've got a home and i'm honestly i can't tell you how excited i am to do that for them
30:44oh the joyous warehouse craig with the help of sue and cass has just one day left to cut his
30:50possessions by half good morning there is a lot to get through but i know dilly will deal with it
30:57delicately this is our new beginning but you know still bringing everything that matters to us with
31:04us but just some of the stuff that doesn't matter we're going to leave behind okay definitely okay so
31:10maybe we should start with your hobbies craig yeah let's kind of have a little my one or two hobbies
31:15what hobbies do we have actually what hobbies do we have darts we still playing darts yeah oh 100
31:21it can go who buys one weight um me apparently camping let's have a look at what we've got sleeping
31:29bags tents when did you even go last about seven years ago ideally i'd love to keep go camping with
31:37the girls okay and that's going to be useful perfect we'll keep that keep that camping chair
31:44do you want to keep it yeah it's still a good chair
31:48what else can we lose would you say you could sell the snowboard
31:53craig are you really going to keep the snowboard seriously yeah yeah but you're literally i am i am
32:00because i'm not going to use it you're not going to take the girls skiing when did he last snowboard
32:05oh he he went snowboarding a few years ago and he absolutely hated it you hated snowboarding you
32:09didn't like because she took me down a blue route on my first goal this is what something that i've
32:16wanted since i was a kid 11 years old and this was i knew that i'd made it if i had my own snowboard
32:23oh so would you rather keep the snowboard in the base yeah
32:28there you go once we got rid of something okay well done cass
32:30yes i think you made some really good choices you've kept all the meaningful things yeah definitely
32:41at the house rob is fitting the desk into craig's new hidden office
32:50fit just like a glove that did while upstairs ewan is tackling more of the girl's artwork
32:55i think this might be a permanent marker pen and what works really well for that
33:01is a little bit of hairspray so you just spray it on
33:06and then quickly whip the pen off this works really good for biro as well
33:11yeah look at that it just whips off
33:17okay
33:19mary we're keeping all of those spiders to scare lauren
33:24oh she hates spiders they're making progress at the warehouse but there's one major section still
33:33to tackle craig's overflowing office and the 373 pieces of unopened mail this is dilly carter
33:41and i am currently surrounded by unopened mail like this magazine which costs
33:47yeah um let me just have a look oh 4.99 there's another magazine that costs 4.99 all of these
33:55magazines are unopened how many craig unopened mail magazines do you have that are costing five pounds
34:03a time there may be 200 magazines in this pile for the love of god open the mail craig
34:11lots of families have subscriptions which they think are saving them time and money but if you're not
34:16using them then it's absolutely a total waste we need to do digital detox yeah so then your mail
34:23doesn't pile up try and make that shift to go online so it gives you all this space back in your
34:29office so you've got clear desks you don't have mounds of paperwork everywhere it's a huge step forward
34:36as craig faces his mountain of mail having dilly here is the kick up the bum that i needed i think
34:42after a massive saw through another section is clear this process is the beginning of a new
34:50healthier year yeah there's not long left to whiz through the final sections let's choose the things
34:56that we know can go go now should i keep these oh my goodness did you think you're a doctor who in
35:04these i like them get to the donate pile craig what are these bears they're like really expensive
35:12apparently they're massive let's go go go go written quick quick quick quick ready there we go well done
35:26after two challenging days the family have successfully managed to cut their belongings by
35:32more than 50 this is an insane amount of stuff and you've done so incredibly well well done you've all been
35:41unbelievable this you know this is going to be space in your house give yourselves a huge clap look at
35:47that pile amazing
35:55it's 9am and just under half of the family's possessions have returned from the warehouse
36:01what time do you call this no it's not my fault it's him who do you think takes longer to get ready
36:06well come on i'm on the clock mate with 122 boxes to unpack and just one day to turn this gorgeous
36:13house into an easy to manage family home i am praying joe's going to be a help and not a hindrance
36:18i've got a really good project for you don't you think it looks so good if you just gave it a little
36:30lick of paint all right go on then i'll do that it's perfect yeah there you go all right let's do this
36:36gang joe and ewan get started on the playhouse joe i can't hear you it's coming is you coming in
36:46you're getting me drenched i couldn't hear you because of the jet wash upstairs dilly's in her
36:51element organizing the girl's new bedroom which we've swapped with craig's room to give them more
36:56space to play kids clothes are just a nightmare to sort and for craig of course he has two young girls
37:03two young girls who have lots of clothes and who have similar ages and this can be a real pain you
37:09know when you're trying to do the washing and you're trying to put the clothes away whose clothes are
37:13who how do we distinguish use a pen by putting a simple dot on anything that is wrens so anything
37:21without a dot is mary's so when those clothes have been handed down then craig can dot them
37:27they've all got their little dots on and craig will be able to find and differentiate wrens to mary's
37:32robbie's getting to work on giving the family some much needed dining space that doesn't take up
37:37any of the girls playroom i'm going to combine a storage unit together with a retractable table
37:46come forward
37:49slide it along this section here and once it hits that point
37:53it's round and locks into position i am currently trying to make a cushion for the top of this toy
38:06box so it's more of a seat on the top then they won't use it to put their toys on that's my hopeful
38:11thinking for this i've got a bit of really cheap fabric and i am using my thumb to dip into some fabric
38:19paint just into the lid dabbing it down and i'm making like little v shapes
38:25but don't judge it yet this is just the beginning the beginning
38:31dearly's got a clever idea to help craig keep the surfaces clear in the kitchen
38:36what i thought we could do is use a bar under here and hang some of the mugs craig uses all the time
38:42what we're going to use are these really inexpensive s hooks now these s hooks i'm going to attach to some
38:48imitation leather so i'm going to use this trusty little belt punch
38:54just like that and then i'm going to glue just a tiny bit there
39:01put my hook there and then this is the magic this bar you get them any diy shop hardware store
39:09really cheap and look at that so let me take this mug oh that is going to be so handy just to
39:18have that extra bit of storage space
39:24job yellow line down here i'm only here for a certain amount of time today get up here
39:31let's chat more doing listen don't spread me thin you want to come and help me stick these on
39:37oh you know i'm not very good at this how cool are these ones though wow cool right i want to start
39:42with the biggest ones and spread them across the wall as best we can oh so the biggest biggest
39:47the biggest biggest ones all right and choose a corner and then spread them sporadically around
39:53the wall then we'll go in with the smaller ones so basically let's just be creative with it yeah no no
39:58listen to what i'm saying this is a clear pattern here there's no pattern you just said stick them
40:03sporadically sporadically not a pattern however think of the spacing in between try and spread
40:09them across the whole wall because we've only got a certain amount of big ones is that enough space
40:12just mirror me kind of yeah yeah all right then don't you think adult bedrooms are so boring
40:18and i don't know why like why when you're in your 30s could you not have this as your wall
40:22it's nice to go to a nice adult bedroom you know to do adult stuff we don't want kids stickers
40:28everywhere well i don't really want to do adult stuff listen i can have adult time with or without
40:33you well then have it without and stop pestering me right you go carry on the wendy house i'll try and
40:39fix this all right it definitely looks like two go on you finish it off you're an idiot joe slash
40:45orange peel is actually a good deterrent for spiders and bugs they really don't like this so
40:53you can wipe a little bit of this around your window frames and the oil
40:58in the orange peel will deter the spiders with the paint dry i'm finishing the girl's bee print seat
41:06cushion oh look how cute that is can i put one on yours oh sure i mean how cute is this though it's
41:13so sweet it's going to be so lovely to have all these little memories of their mum everywhere
41:17how were you how did you find it my god the warehouse was so hard i was thinking about you
41:21all day just because i know what you're going through and i just thought oh dilly's going to
41:25be finding this really tough oh it was tough you are allowed to say say that actually we can't cope
41:30with this it's very difficult and we'll just go out and get away from it for a bit because it's hard
41:36i think it's just been i think it was a i knew it was always going to be a tough week for me but
41:40i think it's also a lovely thing you know to be part of this process to help them you're strong
41:44for everybody else and you put yourself forward to do for everybody else but i don't think actually
41:49a lot of the time you consider yourself yeah and how difficult it might be for you we find it don't
41:53we all find a bit of strength within us at some point i don't know if we all do i think some of us
41:58find more than others and you've got it in abundance deal just take it easy for god's sake
42:02plants are scientifically proven to make you more relaxed and i think a terrarium is a good thing
42:17for craig because they don't take much looking after you can make these with things that you can
42:21find in the garden or you can buy terrarium kits i'm just throwing in some of these these are like
42:27clay balls so at the bottom you want to put some like gravel or stone just help with drainage then
42:32add the soil on top dig some little holes and just position them into place give them a little
42:39spritz once a month is plenty don't be over watering these and that's it how good does that look
42:49what are you doing i am making a reward chart you know how we've got for um for me the one you got for
42:57me at home yeah the one we have to color in the hearts every time i do one of your jobs you put
43:02down there right just just so you i hadn't even told just so you know i know right i have not even
43:07said that to anyone if this is i know that's less of a reward chart and more of a to-do list imagine
43:13right if i if i went to work and said stacy stace i've done a list of chores on there on that board i
43:19want you to do and every time you do a chore i want you to color it in with a little heart
43:22no you tell me to do one but for me i'm sitting there coloring little hearts done the dishes
43:27coloring my heart but at the end of it every time i've done a heart i was so proud of myself i was
43:31like it's just it works see it works it works on joe's wash it will work on the four and six year old

45:07to be able to go on these camping trips with the girls i tell you what i can help test if this is
45:11clean enough you know what's good for this what is that vodka yeah vodka is really good to neutralize

46:34Good.
46:35What are we?
46:36Look at this room.
46:37What a family.
46:38Seven days ago, this was literally a pile of doom.
46:41I hope they love it.
46:43We've smashed this.
46:44Yes, we have.
46:44Yep.
46:45Woo-hoo!
46:51This time last week, the Buftons family home was in chaos
46:55after their world was turned upside down
46:57when they lost mum and wife, Lois.
47:01Four years on, and they were finally able to face the challenge.
47:04And now it's time to see if all their hard work
47:07letting go of over half their possessions has paid off.
47:11Great.
47:11Hey.
47:13How are you feeling?
47:14Really excited.
47:15Yeah?
47:16Nervous as well.
47:16Shall we go and see what we've done?
47:18Oh, yeah.
47:19Shall we?
47:19Yay!
47:20Come with it.
47:21Let's go.
47:25Welcome home.
47:27Oh, wow.
47:28Oh, wow.
47:30Welcome to your new living room.
47:32Oh, my God.
47:32It's amazing.
47:33Oh, my gosh.
47:36Seven days ago, the living room was a glorified storage space
47:40filled to the brim with things Craig hadn't seen in years.
47:44Now it's clear from clutter, given a calm and relaxing space
47:49that Craig so desperately needed.
47:52Oh, this is beautiful.
47:53Oh, my gosh.
47:54Oh, my gosh.
47:55This is like a real room for a real grown-up.
47:57Wow.
47:58It's so lovely.
47:59So lovely.
47:59And it's the green that I really like as well.
48:01Do you love this colour?
48:02I think I might have thought Lois about having it green,
48:05but she wanted, she assisted on blue.
48:07So, yeah, it's gorgeous.
48:07That's so nice.
48:08Oh, it's stunning.
48:09Oh, it's lovely.
48:10This is a proper grown-up area now.
48:12Yes.
48:12Now, what are you going to be?
48:14Proper real grown-up.
48:15Yay!
48:17I'll try.
48:18There is no longer a pile of dough.
48:21Oh.
48:22Where have you put it all?
48:24No, where have you put it all?
48:25You guys did so well in the warehouse.
48:28We've put all of your favourite books out now,
48:30so you've got a proper adult area to read in.
48:33I've not been able to come up this end of the room for,
48:35I mean, years, really, to like, sit in it.
48:38And most importantly, you can actually have
48:40a proper family Christmas in here now.
48:43Craig, we know that you work from home
48:45and your office was upstairs and it wasn't working out.
48:48So, Rob decided to make you a secret office.
48:54Oh, wow.
48:56It is stunning.
48:58It opens up all the way.
48:59Oh, wow.
49:00Oh, my God.
49:02Ta-da.
49:04Oh.
49:05That's amazing.
49:06Wow.
49:07Beautiful.
49:08The colour is perfect.
49:09Yeah.
49:10Well, this was Lois's colour, wasn't it,
49:13that she wanted the room,
49:14so we thought we'd have a little nod to her in here.
49:16That is absolutely unbelievable.
49:19Oh.
49:20Great idea.
49:21And let me tell you something, Craig, OK?
49:22Because Dilly spent a lot of time organising...
49:25Oh, wow.
49:26Oh, that is...
49:27Absolutely stunning.
49:28That is absolutely stunning.
49:30...everything.
49:31This.
49:32Yeah.
49:33This is a basket of unopened mail.
49:35Oh, my God.
49:36There's no getting away from it any more.
49:38No.
49:39You have to face it.
49:40Yeah.
49:41It's right there in front of you and all organised.
49:42And, yes, I've put some of the most important ones.
49:45I made this notice board.
49:46Oh, it's really cute.
49:47Yeah.
49:48So you can have your most important mail on there.
49:49That's amazing.
49:51Go through it.
49:52Get rid.
49:53Just...
49:54Oh.
49:55All my things.
49:56And just neat.
49:57And then I can close the door and it be done.
50:00Exactly.
50:01I'm so happy for you.
50:02Me too.
50:03I'm so happy for you.
50:04We've still got to go downstairs.
50:06Yeah.
50:07Are you ready?
50:08Oh, yeah, please.
50:09We're ready.
50:10Oh.
50:11Welcome.
50:12Oh, wow.
50:13To your kitchen slash playroom.
50:16Oh, my gosh.
50:17Oh, wow.
50:18It's amazing.
50:19Oh, wow.
50:20Oh, my God.
50:21Oh, wow.
50:22Oh, my God.
50:23Oh, wow.
50:25Just a week ago, the kitchen had no clear surfaces
50:28and the playroom was disorganised and overrun with toys.
50:34We've decluttered the area to create a multifunctional space
50:37for the whole family.
50:39Your kitchen was already so marvellous.
50:42What we've done is completely reorganised and re-systemised the entire space.
50:48All of your cooking equipment is now organised.
50:51You got more space back.
50:52I mean, this was a big space.
50:54It's stunning.
50:55It's great.
50:56Storage was the big issue.
50:58But what we tried to do is create big storage in here
51:01so that the girls can have as many toys as they can.
51:04More storage space down here, which is, like, what we need.
51:08Oh, we've got a little chart for the girls.
51:11So, I've called it the Chippin' In Chart.
51:14Basically, I've put a couple of little things on there
51:17that I'm hoping, Craig, the girls might be excited to do.
51:20Yeah.
51:21And then there's some magnetic stars on the bottom there.
51:23When they do it, they can get a star.
51:25Just trying to put little things around the house
51:26where they can get involved in helping you a bit
51:29so that you don't feel like you're on your own.
51:31Yeah, that's fantastic.
51:32That's great.
51:33There's one last thing I want to show you in here.
51:35So, this amazing toy storage also doubles up
51:38as something else very special.
51:40Oh!
51:41This top of the storage turns into...
51:45A table!
51:46A dining table.
51:47Oh!
51:48Oh, my word!
51:49That is so important.
51:51Wow.
51:52That's amazing.
51:53It's fantastic.
51:54That is so cool.
51:55I know.
51:56He's so smart.
51:57Also, it's great because the girls can do painting and crafts.
52:00Homework, dinner, everything on here.
52:03Isn't it good?
52:04That is amazing.
52:05Incredible.
52:06That really is.
52:07So, so good.
52:08It's the best thing.
52:09I mean, it's all been great, but this is amazing.
52:11It's fantastic.
52:12It's, yeah.
52:13Amazing.
52:15Upstairs.
52:16Come on, come on.
52:18Come on, come on.
52:20I can't wait to show the girls their new bedroom.
52:23It's that way.
52:24No.
52:25It's not this room anymore.
52:26Do you know why?
52:27Because we thought Mary and Wren should have the biggest room in the house.
52:32So...
52:33Okay.
52:34Come in.
52:42We've swapped the rooms around to give the girls more space, so what was once Craig's bedroom,
52:47full of clutter, is now a bright inviting space with plenty of room for the girls to rest
52:53and play.
52:54What?
52:55What do you think, girls?
52:56White shape.
52:57Do you love it?
52:58Yeah.
52:59I'm already getting in the house now.
53:00Oh my gosh, Mary.
53:01That is fantastic.
53:02You're putting your shoes away straight away.
53:03Oh, wow.
53:04Oh my gosh.
53:05Come and see.
53:06Oh my goodness, girls.
53:07Oh, it's so good.
53:08And they've got so much floor space.
53:09Do you know what?
53:10I think the most important thing for kids in their room is to have space to actually play.
53:14So getting the bunk beds in and letting go of some of their staff has made a massive difference.
53:21This is gorgeous.
53:22Across the landing.
53:23Across the landing.
53:24Welcome to your bedroom.
53:25Oh, this, this is amazing.
53:26This is funny.
