I learned years ago that taking 10 minutes at night prepping for the next day will save me at least 30 minutes the next morning.
🙌 For sure!
I agree. I am long since retired, but before I retired, Sunday through Thursday nights I would choose the clothing I would wear the next day and lay it out. This included all underclothes, outer clothes, shoes, etc. I also laid out my wristwatch and any jewellery I planned to wear. Whilst it does not sound like much, it really did save me about 15 minutes the next morning, and that was significant considering how much I had to do in the mornings before leaving for work. I was up as early as 4:30 a.m. but no later than 5 a.m. for sure. I do not miss ANY of it one bit either. I am so glad to be out of the rat race.
Do NOT make your bed as soon as you get up.Moisture from our bodies needs to evaporate from the bed covers- otherwise you are encouraging the growth of dust mites. This means far more particles making allergies worse.
My mom taught me to never make the bed right away she said it needs to cool off first. And yes keeping your house tidy makes the people feel welcome.
Thanks for sharing!
1) Open shades/make bed
2) Bathroom Wipe-down (pick one thing each day)
*clean shower while showering! Genius.
3) Laundry Related
4) Dishes/Tidy Kitchen
5) General House Tidy
6) Morning Prep -coffee, clothes, lunches
7) Floors
Got my list, trying it tomorrow….❤
Awesome!! ❤
I find the thought of one big clean too overwhelming but what I’ve found that works for me, is to do one area/item at a time, but thoroughly. For example, one day I’ll do all the windows, another time clean the kitchen, another day dust & vacuum living room, and keep rotating. It’s such a lovely feeling that I can say to myself, ok today I just need to clean kitchen cupboards and the cooker rather than the thought of doing the whole house! That way everything gets done, just not all at once! Really helps me keep on top of things.
That’s a great way to do it!
This works nicely with me too.
As someone who has worked in theER during a code ,a minute is a remarkably long time when you're watching that second hand go around. 7 minutes is a long time. ❤️
I can imagine!! Thank you!
I seriously doubt that I could do this in seven minutes. Kudos to those who can. I find it takes me about 30 minutes in the morning to make a clean sweep of my home, tidying where needed, swishing where needed and vacuuming where needed. However, the trick is to do it EVERY day. If you let it go a few days, or even a week, then a big job awaits.
Yes - a little at a time and it never gets too bad!
Make beds, a pick quick up, vacuum, 1 load of laundry, wipe dishes, counters, toilets every day.
Half hour tops if I'm quick. Half assed job, but it looks good and that's all I care about when I have a long day.
It's worth getting up half hour early to have peace when I get home.
For sure! :)
WHEN did cleaning become a race? …I’m 62 years old and have learned that when there is an emergency WE really are in the PRESENT TIME and cleaning is not the very first thing on our mind. People please do what you can ….bc living is the best part of life. There is a quote that l love, “ Have regular hours for work and play, make each day both useful and pleasant and prove that you understand the worth of time by employing it well, then youth will be delightful, old age will bring few regrets and life will become a beautiful success”
By Lou’sce May Alcott , l believe that is who wrote it , it really puts life in a good place.
Thank you for sharing, love the quote!
I make sure my kitchen is clean before I go to bed. That way I only have to clean up the breakfast stuff in the morning.
Love this! So helpful. I find that since decluttering and having less stuff, I can clean and reset so much quicker. I realize a lot of the time I was spending “cleaning” was really finding homes for things, putting things away, etc
So true - having less stuff really helps a ton! 😊
Vinegar and water is a great toilet cleaner. I love vacuuming so I do it every other day. Plus I have carpet. I hardly use my dishwasher. I do dishes as I use them. Kitchen is always tidy. Making my bed- I try but I often have an obstacle - my 17 pound cat.😸
Love your videos.
Aww thank you so much! Your cat sounds sweet!!
What a chunk 😂! 💕🐱
What a kitty loaf 🍞 😂
I love vacuuming too and also vacuum every other day. Always shocked at the amount of fluff it picks up 😲
Washing your dishes as you use them is a waste of water. If you don't have a dish washer , stack the dirty dishes in the sink. Then wash them all at once. I have a dish washer, so I put the dirty dishes in there after I have used them then when it's full. Uses a lot less water. I have a cat. If she is on my bed sleeping I don't make the bed😂. If she is sleeping on the 8:48 couch I don't vacuum the couch that day. If I wake her up, she gets SO crabby.😃. I live alone so I can do this. When our kids were 10 and 11 as the can figure out their play station, they can figure out how to operate a washer and dryer.
Doing most things the night before saves a lot of time the next day, and starts the day out fresh. I have a wonderful dishwasher, but hand wash dishes through out the day, so whatever we need is clean and ready to use at all times.
Thank you for sharing!
I know this works! 10 minutes at the MOST. If I go slow and walk from one side of my bed to the other and back it literally takes me 90 seconds to make the bed and I have sheets, blankets and several pillows. Everyone must have 90 seconds??? I learned this from a friend who's home was always in order...multi task, set a timer for motivation and you'll be surprised by how much you can get done in your home.
Thank you! 😊
I wonder, every time I watch a cleaning video, why the mother in the home does all the tidying. I was raised with the thinking that, if you live in the home, you have a responsibility to help to keep it tidy and clean. Consequently, when I moved out to my own place, I had the skills I needed to keep it tidy and clean.
If you use the throw blanket, you fold it when you are done. If you dirty a glass, you put it in the dishwasher.
I use an old pillow case for laundry. When it is full, it goes to the laundry room. When the sorted laundry baskets are full, I do laundry.
The reason you see the mother doing the cleaning is because it's probably her TH-cam channel so she films herself showing what she's doing. But absolutely my husband and kids do a lot of the work :)
Also, kids are in school and the husband is at work.
But there should be no kid stuff left in the living after they come back from school. Their school things should be put in their rooms, immediately. There is no reason to leave.shoes, book bags in the living room. But I guess,it is hard to film that. Parents who are,TH-camrs don’t want their kids to be show. In the screen, I get that…
By the way, I love your 7 minute idea. If we all did those cleaning items every morning or whenever is best for each person, our homes would be much much tidier. I make my bed the instant I get up. I get dressed immediately and put away all the dishes out of the dish washer. My husband makes his own bed and puts his dirty laundry in the laundry container himself.
Having a clean kitchen with everything in its place for the rest of the day is wonderful.
@@sherrybendall5817 a lot of women work and also do housework.
@@alicequayle4625 I am one of them.
So doable if your dedicating time daily to avoid hours of cleaning on one day. Every night wipe down my 3 bathrooms and my kitchen, Every morning the bedrooms and vacuuming. clothes are washed every 2 days, this is what works for me and my house hold 🤗🤗🤗
Thank you!
I squeegee my shower every time I get out. I find that I almost never have to clean it when I do this. It takes about 30 seconds and saves me so much scrubbing.
I agree - so much easier to keep it clean this way!
I wash found my shower when I'm in it. Have the cleaner right next to the shampoo. I'm done? Spray spray. Aim the shower head (I have a hand held) , rinse, done
I was about to write that in the comments 😂
I do, too.
Do you have tiles in shower? Do you squeegee those too? Just curious. I squeegee the glass each time.
One of my super quick tips for keeping toilet clean in between the once-a-week deep clean, believe it or not, is denture cleaning tablets ! I toss a pkg. (6 in a pkg) in the toilets. It really helps freshen the toilet.
In between vaccuming, I ran a dustmop around on all the bare floors. Quick & easy....gets the dust bunnies !
Thank you for sharing!! :)
I like to "air" my bed for a hour before making it. Thank you for sharing.
Yep, you just fold back the covers, go get ready for the day, do the school run etc. Then come back and make the bed. That way the air and sunlight get to your bedding and naturally keep it cleaner (rather than it getting all musty with sweat and bacteria 🤢).
My Nanna taught me that, along with a whole host of other (nowadays un)common sense tips 😅
Me too.
Ya right
Or you could just wash your bedding once a week like most people 💁🏼♀️@@hannahpaul1988
I do it too. The worst is if I get distracted and don't return to my bedroom til night-time, then have to make it at the end of day when I'm tired and sick of everything. Luckily that isn't often.
It's good to know that i'm not the only one who likes to time themselves while cleaning. It makes it more fun for me, less of a chore.
For sure!
Me too !
I play 'beat the clock' .
Every minute saved goes in the reward bank 😅
@@jackieann5494 That sounds really fun
@@lilbit2274
☺️
I love that while your talking, you show us in real time that you can do this in 7 minutes
Thank you so much!
What ratio of dish soap, vinegar, and water? Do you use cleaning vinegar which is more acrid than regular vinegar? Nothing I have tried takes off the hard water deposits.
One tip I would offer to everyone is to religiously change your HVAC filters every four weeks. If you do it on the first of the month, then you can add it to your list to pay the mortage/rent, give your dog his heart worm/flea preventative, etc. Linking several things to do on the exact same day each month helps you to remember to do them all.
Great tip! Also, I about a 1:5 ration of water and vinegar and then add about 2 teaspoons of dish soap (in a spray bottle)!
To be clear, five times more vinegar than water?
Its all about consistency, doing the quick things on a regular basis. 7 minutes is really a short time but you've got it down. Of course it depends on the size of the home or if it's a 1 story or 2 story home. I always empty my dishwasher while my coffee is brewing. If I don't my whole day is off. I'm a morning person as well and like to get the cleaning out of the way and get on with my day. Its also so much easier if you declutter items you don't need/use. Less stuff to clean around etc.
Thank you for sharing!!
I don't know how I didn't think of spraying my shower BEFORE getting in, lol. I have the spray and I use it while in there and can't stand the smell of the vinegar. I will definitely change up my routine now, thank you!
Awesome, let me know how it works!!
Truth is once I get moving and tidying up I am happy to spend more time to get things done. It’s getting started off my couch is the hardest part. Mind over matter.
This happens to me all the time - I just need to get started! :)
My house became much tinier when I gave myself two rules to follow! First thing in the morning I make the bed right away. Before going to bed at night I wipe down my kitchen sink. Of course, that means that if there’s anything in the sink you have to deal with it wash it or put it in the dishwasher. So wiping down the kitchen sink make sure you look at things that are near the sink and deal with those, too. That way when you wake up in the morning, you will have a clean fresh sink and no dishes hanging around or articles standing on the counter that you need to deal with before you can start your day. You having a house that is at least that tidy gives you the impetus to keep the rest of it clean, too. If you are feeling, super lazy, and don’t do any other cleaning or picking up, at least you have done those two things and your bedroom looks neat, and your kitchen looks tidy.
Thank you for sharing!
I love this idea and I’m going to use it. Today before sitting down on the couch I decided to clean the surfaces in the living room. I quickly cleared everything, then dusted and also disinfected every surface. It took me 5 mins and I felt so much better sitting in the clean room. I like the shower tip and will definitely try it.
Great motivation. Maintaining is definitely much better than having to do big "tackles" often.
For sure! 😊
With dishes, never had one glass inside sink. We always directly put inside dishwasher we are programmed like it so i understand other way too. Is much easier. One what i feel make much easier is pick up things everytime you leave room, glass on table in living room, snack bowl, all around house when i leave room i bring anything what not belong there👌🏼
Yes - love the rule to never leave a room empty handed!
Lovely but what about those of us without a dishwasher. I have no room for one in my small flat.
@@missaj5623 start challenge with yourself, before bed all dishes need to be washed, with every cooking go wash dishes and see how nice is to wake up in clean kitchen. We also didn’t had 2 years, but for us is no more obligations it become habit to have clean kitchen.
@@missaj5623 and small apartment reason more to have clean kitchen👌🏼
Dust🤣🤣 We have ten birds. Birds are SO dusty and always little feathers and food on the floor under the cages. We also have several other animals, most of which were rescues.
I do everything you mentioned in your wonderful video, but it takes me quite a bit longer than 7 minutes. But I'm ok with that. The animals are worth the time it takes to clean everyday.
I agree, animals are so worth it!
I love how you show us your home ❤
Aw thank you!! ❤
* I open my lounge and dining room curtains before going to bed to get the full effect of the sun and in case I get up late.
*You must air your bed well before making it to get rid of sweat etc...
*Toilet seat/ cover must also be cleaned
* A feather duster in your hand also comes in handy.
* Clearing the kitchen before you sleep is a good idea.
■Get every member of the family to clean/tidy after themselves
■No wonder we....women....should be called ' Domestic Engineers ' .
■ ' Salaries for housewives '..... this will make the value of housework equal to the value
of jobs outside the home.
● Thanks for some invaluable advice 😊
Thank you for sharing! And I love the idea of opening the curtains before bed!
I love your helpful suggestions.
I'm so glad!
Yep, I clean the shower in it! Usually in that “shampoo/lather 2 minutes “ bit.
After a shower the steamed up mirror gets a wipe. Etc.
Ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure (or cleaning!)
For sure! 😊
I think it is truly impossible to do that much in only 7 minutes. Only washing your hands multiple times between those activities takes more than 7 minutes...
All of this probably 30 minutes at least if you are quick.
@@ines4242 Maybe for some very efficient people 😀
Honestly try it! You'd be shocked how fast you can do things when you set a timer and do it fast. Going for better not perfect here :)
Try doing 1 minute challenge, and do 7 task daily, can be vary by days.
Take your time to build that muscle, at the beginning of course it might take longer than 1 minute, but as we progress it will become easier to do it faster 😁 good luck
Ps: I put 5 minutes timer to fold and store my laundry, once the timer start I’ll only focus on the task and I manage to do it in only 3 minutes.
Usually it would took longer as I was distracted by TH-cam.
I agree with the seven minutes. Doing random house tasks every day makes it so much easier. Cleaning the shower before getting out or d cleaning the used dishes as you wait for something to boil cuts down on cleanup after meals . It's amazing!
I think that’s a great way to clean the shower.
Thank you, Cheryl!
I think the best message is routine, routine, routine. Time is not really the issue. 7 vs 30 is going to depend on circumstances, but doing something everyday is the key.
Laughing that you set the timer to try and beat yourself…sounds like my kind of crazy, just hadn’t thought of it yet 😂
Haha love it!
Tip: I put sheets x 2 on bed top and bottom then the duvet with cover and I have spare sheets and pillowcases then I do a mini bed change once or twice then a major full bed change. The mini involves stripping and changing top and bottom sheet but I leave the duvet cover in place and I change the top pillowcases. As I am elderly this makes bed change easier especially as I have a Super King size bed.
Great idea!
Thank you for making this quick! I appreciated what you shared!
Thank you Annie! 😊
I like all the practical tips you mentioned. Thanks🥰
You are so welcome!
Good tips! Your dog is adorable!😊❤
Oh my gosh thank you, we were pet sitting her! ❤️
I looooove this!!!! ❤ I get overwhelmed so easily but this seems simple enough to actually do it. Thank you for sharing and showing it. I’m also a visual person so this helps a lot.
You are so welcome, Monica! 😊❤️
WOW! You've got some really useful tips! Thank you so much❤
You're so welcome! ❤
Thank you! Great ideas and your enthusiasm is motivational. God bless ❤
Thank you so much!
I can't imagine having to fumble making coffee set up in the morning. I do it the day/night before and so just a plug in when morning comes. To multi task, do the coffee switch first, then so those things, and by the time your done, so is your coffee. In that order makes more sense to me.
Thank you for sharing!
Taryn, you certainly are a wonder woman.....
I love this video and just wanted to let you know .. thanks for all the tips ..
Thank you so much!! ☺
Agree 30 sec to make bed (we have top sheet and blanket)
Clean as you go, when cooking. I set up tomorrow’s coffee, wipe cabinets, refill pet water, wash pots, etc. I run dishwasher at night and empty first thing. Keeps sink clear.
Thank you for sharing!
Brilliant inspirational video!
Thank you so much!
Heads up: vinegar will, over time, dull the shine on tiles
I do same for shower but add lavender or eucalyptus essential oil so my shower experience is a really pleasant one.
Yum, love the smell of eucalyptus oil!
The sheets on your bed do not have all the wrinkles out, I also clean my shower while I am in the shower. I do a batch of laundry every day, I usually do it in night I also run the dishwasher at night. Before I go to bed I tidy the house. I vacuum and damp mop daily, it’s quick and easy if you do it daily.
Thank you for sharing!
I always enjoy the laundry taco that you make with a towel! There are just 2 problems with these minute tasks: I'm a slowa55 and I can't do anything half-a55ed! I totally adopt this mindset of doing small cleaning tasks here and there though. Like you suggested, I do a little bit in the bathroom each day so it's fully cleaned by the weekend.
For sure, I think the key is breaking everything up into small tasks! I'm laughing about the "taco!" I should probably get a laundry basket for upstairs too but I don't even know where I'd keep it! :)
Dust in the bathroom is fluff from the toilet paper. Makes you feel a little better about the dust.
Yes!! I’ve been researching dust for a video and recently learned that!!!
Also if your towels shed a lot. Bought a newer type of bamboo towels and there's grey dust added to the mix now. Also, if you have air returns like we do in our house, it might accumulate more in the rooms close to the air return.
Helpful informations. Thanks dear. ❤
You are so welcome!
Love the shower tip!! I love to time chores as well and am always shocked by finding out that they usually don't take as long as I thought.
Right?! ☺
Queen of cleaning; I just subscribed, thank you for all great tips yeah ☮️🙋🏼♀️🌴
Welcome, I am so glad you are here!!
No windows in your bedroom? What in the world!! I love sunlight so a window(s) in my bedroom and bathroom are a must.
Haha I love my dark sleeping cave! Our windows are in the addition next to the room (bathroom/closet)!
I found you tips useful. I’m a 71 year old widow. I often stop videos because they are for homes with families. That’s fine but not helpful for me. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
I like to vacuum everyday as well. Just a quick one. And a deep clean vacuum twice a week 😊
Same - our house seems to need a quick daily vacuum!
I also clean my clean shower while I’m in it. Everyone in my home will squeegee the shower door after they shower. I hang a dish wand with half and half vinegar and dish soap (I use Dawn) in the shower and will give everything a scrub down when needed and then rinse with the hand held shower head. I will buff off the shower door with my towel as well
Love it, so much easier this way!
I have been doing this sort of cleaning for years.
Shower cleaned before I get out taps and sinks wiped over each use,tidy as you go,see a small job, just do it.
It is now so automatic that I don't realise I am doing it!!!
I so agree about it being automatic - I feel like that too!
Agree it takes 15 sec to squeegee shower glass and I have Toto toilet seat that automatically cleans toilet bowl with each flush
How cool!
Hi Taryn, I ❤ your channel.
May I ask if you really have no window in your bedroom?
Yes! I realize that probably sounds weird - a long time ago (maybe 50 years ago) they installed an addition onto the back of our house and it ended up going over the windows so now we have a large master closet and bathroom there with the windows :)
Brilliant! ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🏆
Thank you!! ☺❤
Add tea tree oil one any essential oil…it’s wonderful!
Thanks for the tip!
Great tips...... but there is no way they can be done in one minute. Folding laundry ? vacuuming ? cleaning shower ? even making the bed takes longer than one minute! It takes me more than one minute just to get the vacuum cleaner from the closet, bring it to the area I want to clean and plug it !
I live in Germany, we usually have two separate blankets and no additional pillows which are only there for style. Some people add a decorative blanket over the two blankets which doesn’t take long, but honestly - takes me 20 seconds to make our bed because there’s really only things on the bed that are being used on the bed
Scotland here. Fitted bottom sheet, one downie (eiderdown) and 1 or 2 pillows according to preference. No blankets , unless its an extra cold night, which it usually isn't these days, what with central heating !
Bed made in less than 30 seconds !!
Even though some of these may take a little longer (take into account age, health, etc) I feel the “spirit “ of the message is that even small chunks of time make a big difference. See the big picture and please put positive vibes out there. 😉
Yes, getting out the vacuumer is an exercise all on it's own. But I have a stick vacuum like the one in the video, only not as fancy. You keep it plugged in all the time, which charges the battery, then you just whip around quickly, and put it back on the charger when you're done. Life changing! I'm also getting a roomba, which vacuums on it's own with no effort from us!
@@thatswhatisaid8908 I love my Roomba! It saves time, effort and my back 😃
These make sense except I would clean the toilet more thoroughly and skip doing the skirting boards. I only do those monthly on their own scheduled appointment. I put away my washed dishes from the night before in the morning coz I don’t have a dishwasher. I’ve a cupboard dirty dishes “live in” till the evening when I hand wash the lot🥴
Thank you for sharing!
Making bed straight away it makes dust mites flourish 🤣
Living in Arizona I need a lot of help getting used to keeping the house dust free.😊
So much dust! I have a video on dust free hacks I’m putting up in June!!
A 1/2 hr in morning and evening in itself makes a great impact.
For sure!
Would you mind sharing the exact measurements that go in to your shower mixture cleaner? I really love this idea!!
Yes for sure!!! Here is a good recipe but I usually just wing it so no need to be super precise: 1 cup of water, 1/4 cup of vinegar and 2 teaspoons of dish soap! Then shake it up and I usually use about the whole thing but if you have leftovers you can use that to clean other things too!
Thank you! I’m going to try this and keep my shower much more cleaner!
4:06 not fully true, you forgot that the dish soap dissolves oils... and dirt from humans is mostly oil - sebum! :) That's why this solution works even better than all of the bathroom cleaners because they all target mainly hard water stains.
Thanks for sharing!
Also the light on the vaccum reveal more dust !
Yes!
I make my bed while I’m still in it lol. I sit up pull up the comforter and give it a fluff and fold over the top. Done.
Awesome!
Oh man some of these comments are wild haha. Ive never timed myself or set timers but girl when that coffee hits i feel like stuffs getting sone quick. Or if im irritated nothings better than a rage cleaning haha
Ah the good old rage clean ha!
I write a job list and put an estimated time by each job, as I work through my job list I set the timer for the time I’ve written down.I always make sure I do the job in the time or less time , if for any reason it takes slightly longer ,I write that time ,so I know for next time!
It’s such a great feeling working my way through the list and crossing everything off .I always use a highlighter to cross off , as it shows up well !🙂
That's a great idea!
I like doing the minutes a room.
Thank you!
I absolutely think that the things you do every day or a great idea but I think more like 20 to 30 would be more reasonable. It takes me about four minutes to make my bed and I have one throw pillow on it. You’re a little carried away with your time and your young.
I do think things take less time than you think and if you can simplify your spaces you can clean them even faster. Thank you for commenting!
When I was 24, my brother drew my name for Christmas so the coffee pot I received had an alarm didget which was set for 6:00 A.M.

Thank you for sharing, Sharen!
I use 7th generation unscented all purpose cleaner. I leave it out on the counter so I can clean up without a big production. I'm not into crunchy products but 7th generation and Method work better than anything else, work on almost everything, and are safer than many cleaners for fabrics and food areas
Thanks for sharing!!
I love 7th Generation unscented All Purpose Cleaner! I mostly use half vinegar/half water spray, but that doesn’t always cut it if there’s grimey spots. Then I bring out the 7th Generation.
I'd call it 7 to Heaven !!!😁
Ha!
I just can't clean the shower when im naked it feels weird
It's funny, I'm so used to it and now I hate cleaning it with clothing on because my clothes get all wet!
I think it’s a perfect time to clean the shower….naked.
When I read this things to hurry up with all the chores I wonder which husband/men would do this.... I am not a fan to get myself stressed with a timer. Be nice to yourself ❤
I like to make it into a game or challenge for some reason :)
There's a few reasons that bathrooms get dusty:
1 - If you have hard water in the area and it gets steamy, the mineral deposits will accumulate on the surfaces the steam touches
2 - Flushing the toilet with the lid down to minimize the spread of where the aerosolized particulate will settle, lid up spreads it further
3 - Towels, bath mats, and shower curtains, like other textiles, will break down over time, especially if they're in direct sunlight
4 - Brushing your hair will dislodge dead skin cells in minute amounts; dust is largely dead skin cells
Thank you for sharing!!
👏👏👏
Thank you!
I use a Brillo pad on my shower walls. Gets rid of soap scum and shines it.
Thank you for sharing!
7 MIN? ME? NO WAY....LOL
It stressed me out! No way can o do this. I have anxiety. This would drive me crazy. 😅
Sorry! Don’t get stressed!
I can’t get the dust off of the baseboards that easily. It sticks to the caulking like it’s superglue
I know what you mean!
i clean my shower while i am in it too...maybe do a little different...i sqeegee it,,,which takes aminute,,,then spray anwipe with diy solution ,,,basiclly its a daily shower spray...try to do that in a minute also ,,, so literally it only takes 2 to three minutes ,,, and its not hard ,,, doesnt get built up ..
so im weird like you lol... i havebeen doing that for years now
i likw your idea of just wipe baseboards with toilet paper for quick clean ...
Love it! Thank you for sharing!
❤️❤️
Thank you!! ❤
Dust on the bathroom comes mostly from toilet paper, then towels.
I'd heard that, so interesting!
🎉
Thank you!
Sounds very much like the fly lady
I have to check that out - I am familiar with her but haven't ever tried the system.
It is so weird that your dishwasher is across the kitchen from your sink. I bet you end up wiping the floors constantly
Oh yeah - the people who lived here before us did a number of questionable renovations!
I find that dust in bathrooms comes from soft toilet paper---dustiest place in around the holder!!!!
YES! I recently learned this - I have it in an upcoming video about dust - so crazy!
I thought I was the only one that looked at baseboards in other peoples bathroom 😂
Ha! It's not our fault - what else are we supposed to look at while sitting in there?! :)
