“That’s what she said” hahah channeling your Michael Scott haha!
Can I just say that I love that you are NOT ultra minimalist?
“Let me organized my stuff in peace! Thank you.”
Love it!!! Right there with you 💕💕
I am a minimalist however I do have hobbies that require numerous items to engage in them (baking for example) and I felt that "Let me organize my stuff in peace" mood. Some people can so easily forget that everyone comes from a different place, nothing is one size fits all.
For reference her name is Dana K. White and she wrote Decluttering at the speed of life and Organizing your home without loosing your mind. Both books worth reading, more than once.
Yes. It's called
*"Don't put it down, put it away!"*
Thank you Dana! ♡
The box is called "donatable donationbox"!! 😁
Yes I was hoping she’d give credit to Dana. Her method is 👌👌
Where would I look for this first?!
Dishes math!
All of the things Dana says have had a huge impact on my life.
@@Melshed
Yes! Giving credit where credit is due ❤️
@@Melshed yes. Kind of disapointed she didnt. Her whole method is just life changing and she deserves the recognition
For the toilet brush, i keep my canister filled with pine sol (which I dump out and refill every once in a while. After I use the brush I flush a couple times and let the clean water rinse my brush off so that it's somewhat cleaner before placing back into the pine sol. I also pour a little bit of the pine sol into the toilet bowl when cleaning and it works amazingly! It smells so good, my brush/canister never even remotely smells bad, and no gross things grow on it since the pine sol is itself a cleaner =)
Such a nice tip. I'm gonna apply that in my house. Thank you for sharing.
"Well, lady.. This is my life...and I've got the stuff that I've got" hahah love this quote🥰
When I started watching your videos my immediate thought was "This woman is a saint!" You are so calm and honest and have 8 kids! Inspirational.
I live for a clean sink. I also like putting a few essential oil drops in my sink in the evenings after the kitchen is closed. Makes it smell great and feel fresh in the morning!
I keep things picked up, clean and always cleaning up my kitchen. Makes my days feel less chaotic. I am also very visually stimulated, so if my house if together... my brain feels more together :)
Im the same
"Your house isn't going to smell like a brothel." Classic. I laughed so loud my husband stuck his head in to check on me. 😆
The “picking up and putting away part” is especially important, when coming home with the kids or with groceries. I have everyone take off their shoes, jackets, hats, mittens,… and put them to where they actually belong (prevents piles in the hall) plus I force myself to unpack all the groceries before sitting down or doing everything else. This way, when dinner time rolls around I am not unpleasantly surprised by piles of groceries lingering in the kitchen.
It does take a LOT of discipline though…so to all the moms out there: have some grace with yourself, when your house is not picked up ALL the time. As Angie said: let’s aim for 80% :) Pareto Principle.
Was the book you read Decluttering At The Speed of Life? Dana K White. By far the best book about decluttering I’ve EVER read. It’s totally helped.
I feel like that is the book. I listened to it and it is the best decluttering book I’ve read by far!!
I was wondering the same thing! I love her and Dawn from the Minimal Mom!
I love her!
Dana's first book, "Managing Your Home Without Losing Your Mind" was the one thing that helped me SO much. I read her blog before that.
Her decluttering book, while also great, is a lot of things from the first book, repeated. But without everything from the first book, and delves so much deeper into actually decluttering..
She has a podcast too (a slob comes clean), where she goes over all of the things. She's my hero lol took my house from crazy pants to calm. ☺️
I was thinking the same .., I do wish she had said who the author was … to give them credit .. but does sound like Dana k white … I can hear her in my head saying her take it ther now x
Love these tips!
Side note: Essential oils can slowly break down plastics, especially citrus oils. (Chemists wife)
I was thinking the same
can u please explain further, like what kind of plastic and what does it break down to???
@@anahash3221 I used some in my fiberglass tub and my waterpik before realizing this. It etched the plastic on the waterpik and etched and discolored my tub. They are strong.
I'm down with a chest infection at the moment and feeling dreadful with it. My house is a mess and it highlights how much I just go around picking up after everyone. I think I need to get my family on board with some of these tips
I hope you feel better soon. You could end up with a new life from this discovery!
Saw Ashleigh's post, sorry for your family's loss. Prayers for comfort and peace for all.
You have 8 kids?!? Woah. God bless you!
Yes I have 3 dogs that go up on the sofas, I bought those covers and they helped, but found I need to wash them weekly, sometimes mire often, it was headache, so what I use now in between washings is King or Queen size flat bedsheets,, they work great and I can fold them and store them under the sofa cushions for a quick change when needed. Ten once a week, I wash all the dog bedding, and sheets tigether,,tat was a game changer on keeping he smells gone. I buy them at thrift stores very cheap, and I can Chang the patter and color to fit my mood.
Great idea!
I love your attitude, -this is it, we can make it as pleasant as possible!
Love Dana K White. Take it there now
Sofa protectors = game changer! Makes my life so much easier & I’m much more relaxed.
As an owner of a big dog (alongside toddler) I agree about grooming & sofa cover - savers for sure !!
Oh my gosh I've been wanting a vacuum tool to assist me with grooming Finlee my English cream golden retriever. The shedding with this wonderful breed is real! Thanks!
Your dog is such a cutie pie just sitting there like ahh that feels so good
That dog grooming vacuum is life changing I have 2 German shepherds and the hair is insane!!
Yes, Shining my Sink is a game changer, not only how the kitchen looks, more importantly how I feel, it makes me smile when I see a clean sink in the morning,, great way to start the day! And throughout the day, I feel like cooking more when my sink and kitchen are clean.
Great tips! I can’t believe you have 8 kids. You look amazing!! I love your witty personality!!!Your home is beautiful. Maybe you could show us some dinner meal ideas that you make? More videos like the redo of the girls room!
Enjoyed these tips very much and thank you for keeping it real. Life happens.
hallelujah! love tips! and the one that for me that has made the most sense is the one that you touched on about putting stuff away not down. I have always told my kids and husband it doesn't take any longer to put something away where it belongs as it does to just set it down where you are. thanks for the tips! we are empty nesters now, but I have a husband that makes more messes then all 3 of my kids together did! xoxo
Oh how I needed this today!! ❤
The donation bin is a killer idea, thank you for sharing!
I bought that pet grooming vaccum during the Amazon prime deal. It really works!!
I finally broke down and bought the beach scent! Thank you, I'm a mama of 6 and lots of farm animals
My greatest wish: a Christmas planning video like last year, loved it so much!🥰
Just rewatched all the videos.
Haha! Yes, to the nose! That was my first pregnancy symptom with my 3rd that made me go buy a pregnancy test. Love the tips!
Love the ceiling book shelf
We have 6 kids, 5 are teenagers. When you said this is for those with a bunch of kids. All of what you said hit home 🙌 the fact that 5 are teenagers is like living with 5 other roommates. When they were little it was easier everything was organized because it was up to me 😅thank you for your content!!
Incorporated most of these ideas. Life changers ❤thank you for sharing
What ?!?! The pet thing is amazing - it’s now part of my Christmas list thanks 😁
I really enjoy watching you, you are down to earth and funny!
"Between hoarders and museum" 😂❤ I can remember that. Thank you!
I don't have as many kids as you, I only have 5, but what really helps is no shoes on inside. With 7 of us it really helps!
Also, i really dislike purses/bags on my kitchen counter and tables 🤢
Love the essential oil tips- thank you for great tips!! 👍
and i hate people bringing outside shoes on my main area rugs, it just annoys me , it can be vaccumed to remove dust and other particles but what annoys me is that those shoes go everywhere even public restrooms so its making rugs gross with all the filth.
Not wearing shoes in doors is a game changer. So much cleaner.
I use inexpensive quilts and blankets on all my sofas, it's easy to find colors that match.
Woot woot- you mentioned Flylady the OG! Her methods, tips and teachings are great for side tracked homemakers 👋
Look for the Downy rainforest scent beads! Amazing
Great tips! We have 3 kids, and we are always home. It's hared to keep up!
Great tips Angie. I like to put some of the toilet bowl cleaner in the bottom of the toilet brush holder just a bit.
A great advice for the bin.I use essential oil in the burner and candles in my kitchen . I have a lemon scent sanitized near the bin. Clean as you go. Im the same put it where it stays. I tell my 3 kids
Bought the sofa protector and loved it so much I bought one for my daughter (she has 3 dogs)! She loved it and bought one for her sister! Such a life changer for all of us!
I don’t see the link for the sofa protector? I know I’m a few weeks late but am I missing something?
I raised a family of 4 children. Picking things up as you go and putting them away where they go was my golden rule of survival. Once my husband and myself had to go out of town for a few days. I had an older single lady stay at my house while we were gone. The kids were all teenagers and knew when they had to be home and no friends. The next Monday I saw this lady at work. I asked her how it went. She said the kids were great, but they sure don't pick up after themselves. I replied oh great I at least I know you were at the right house. 😂
just a suggestion, toilet holders and brushes puts me off too so try the disposable ones u can buy from costco and sams, they are great u dispose off the disc after every use , just keep a container with water and rinse the plastic stick and put it back after drying with toilet paper and i dont have a container for it so i just put it in a plastic bag and that goes in my cabinet that i use only for cleaning my restroom and i have these sticks in multiples in every restroom cabinet and even one separate one that i use to clean my wash basins and shower when they need an extra scrub. I am on the lookout for a container so that i can keep it or hold it near the toilet seat.
For laundry I just use 3 or 4 spoons of washing soda crystals and some drops of lemon or lavender essential oil. It does everything. No need for toxic laundry detergent, fragrance or softeners. Works a treat.
Just had a flashback to the “old house” when Benji got hold of the toilet brush after one the boys had replaced without cleaning it and little Benji dragged it around your bedroom floor and bedding 😂😂 the absolute horror on your face. I can honestly say I was crying with laughter. Those where the days 😊
I'm first! So happy to see a video from you! 💐
Two things I live by, leave it better than I found it and what’s in this room that needs to go where I’m going and I take it with me. I got the last one from my years in the service industry, no empty hands. 😅
I try to follow the "touch it only once" philosophy to try and keep things tidy!
Great tips, especially about piles. Thats me!! Unfortunately.
We use covers made from fleece fabric for our furniture. When it gets dirty, you just whip it off and wash it, dry it, no ironing. Saves wear and tear on the upholstery. Also cozy in the winter.
You home is gorgeous! You have great taste!
Thank you for your advice 😊
I’m 21 weeks pregnant with my second child and I needed this video for motivation today! I always try to do a deep clean around the house the weekend before any holiday and I was thinking of skipping this one time… but thanks to you… I already have the living room half finished, just vacuuming and mopping left in here now. And I’m feeling accomplished! I’m also going to try that essential oil trick on the toilet brush! NOW essential oils had a candy cane one from last Christmas that I hope they bring back this year because I LOVE my house to smell like candy canes and Christmas trees all of November and December!
Ne pas prendre pour modèle une mise en scène de la famille parfaite, restez dans la vraie vie faite d imperfections ! 🙂
We had charcoal for our fish tank filter, I’ve put some of that in containers in our bin under the bin bag. Works a treat without covering one smell with another. Absorbs the smells
Charcoal can be reinvigorated by sitting it in the sun, so it's reusable and not landfilling.
Lots of great tips. Thank you
Thank you for the tips..love the cleaning, shopping and homeschool videos you make 😊
Helpful ideas. Thanks, Angela!
Glad it was helpful!
Girl… I need links to all your rugs. They’re all so different and colorful. I need more color in my life 😍
I do pine sol in my garbage bin and toilet brush thing. It kills the bacteria and smells so nice!
Good Tuesday morning Angela. What can I say? These videos just keep getting better and better. Your deep cleaning and organizational skills are impeccable. TYFS and don't forget to take some time for yourself. 😊😊
Great video!! :) Thanks for the tips!
Great video. Thank you
I keep falling behind in a message I want to convey. This is re heartfelt changes you want to make going forward re content and new phases in life you are entering especially re adopting and raising human beings. I have watched you since you started filming. I watched because you were such a bright light. And admired your skills to get things done, and frankly, all family members looked well taken care of. I watch 5 or 6 families because they raise my hopes that good people in all walks of life still exist. I am particularly pleased to see parents that are raising smart, well tempered, and good citizens. I also enjoy homesteaders, full time sailors, and animal lovers. You are a good person, a thoughtful person, like these others. And I love your kindness and forthrightness. You have much to share. I think your photography is a great way to keep us in touch with those great kids, if that is suitable. The design and look of your site and emails is like you, easy on the eyes.
At 7:00 when you were talking about the brush? In our house I call it "OHIO" = Only Handle It Once. I've also followed FlyLady off and on over the years. I've FINALLY got my husband shining the sink!
Great tips! Love the rug in your family room! Would you share a link where to buy?
Constantly fighting the kid/pet stink. So thank you for this video lol
Enjoyed.
I *love* (!) your dry humour. ☆
Hi there sweetie pie hope you are well great ideas I always to a 10 minute walk around before I go to bed lounge room Kitchen and bathroom before I go to bed it is good start to the day love from Eugenie your friend xxx 🐕🍁🌻💕
Loved the low key "twss" joke 😂 so unexpected and you never lost a beat
Great advice
Soon to have a house Of 10 too and that is why I buy ikea furniture as the entire cover comes off, not only on the cushions but the arms, back etc for washing in the machine. And it dries fast! I do it after the kids go to bed and it’s on by morning and ready to go and take another beating😂 but we live on a farm too and our animals are everywhere. It’s fun but ya…farm smells haha. Gonna put some oils in my toilet brush holder and bottom of trash can so thanks for that tip!
All great tips😊
Ok I’m getting it , 👍👍we have Great Pyrenees and dog hair covers my life pretty much
Great vide o - thanks!
In the past, I've tried putting things in a bin as I go around, then when I get the chance, I take them to where they belong, but it's as if they are calling out to me or mocking me somehow(brain matter). Therefore, I went back to putting things in their spot right away, even if I'm collecting them in a bin to make it easier. I really love the tip for the garbage bins, I was using paper towels for that purpose. Also love the toilet brush tip. I'll give them a try.
That’s such a rad kitchen sink! I’ve never seen it before I don’t think 🤔
I was thinking the same thing!! what is that small middle sink for??
I love all the information !!!thanks Angela! Question: what kind of coffee is the best for you?
We need your motivation! And energy too! Jajaj!
I'm looking or more information about weight loss + routine for mom's busy like us! 🙏 thanks! Blessings 😊
I’m right there with you...somewhere between a museum and horder! I settle on “we live here and it’s going to look like we live here, but I want it to be clean enough so that we want to live here.”
Love your tips and videos! I enjoy listening to you. What’s the name of the book you were referring to
thank you
We only have 1 kid and these tips are still epic. Why? 1. We also have 2 cats and a dog. 2. We live in the brother at where it rains a lot which means dirt dirt dirt. 3. So many of these are applicable even for single people!
Really enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing.
Put it away is definitely a game changer! I’m really bad about not doing that with important papers. Instead I leave huge piles in a few places. Then I stress out when I need something or when I go to file them. 😬🤦♀️
Great tips! I would love to know how to scent laundry with essentials rather than commercially prepared mixtures. Since having cancer at 40, I avoid toxins as much as possible. ❤
Which pot lid storage container do u have on your cabinet doors? Thank u for the video , I just didn’t see this !
Hi, what is the book that said tip #5 “put it away”? Thank you!
Great advice! We have the pet grooming kit and the sofa cover already!
Where did you get the sofa cover?
@@merjoy85 I got it from Walmart.
Hi Angela.
Happy Holidays.
I really glad you showed your dog and the Neabot Pet Vacuum.
I have a Great Pyrenees. He's 115lbs.
Wil the Vacuum handle that large or a dog or are you finding you have to keep emptying it out?
Clorox toilet wand is a game changer!
I just stopped the video and went to the bathroom and put some essential oil on that bathroom brush ✌️ great idea!
I keep a plastic packet in my freezer and throw all meat wrappers vegetables peels basically anything that makes ur trash can smell. Then when it is the day the bin trucks come i throw it in the bin.
I do the same especially in Summer!
You are doing a good job
I read that essential oils and plug ins were very hazardous for pets. Has anyone else read this online? It wasn't about the animals eating them, it was about using them around pets.
Pro housekeeper switch to the Clorox toilet wand. LOVE them :)
Can you link the sofa covers and the pot lid organizer?
I subscribed just now ..because I have 8 kids like you😇👍🤗..and because you are soo amazing 🌹
