Cas, please don’t give up on cleaning or organizing…today I was like, “I know I don’t want to clean but I know I need to. I’ll turn on Cas and I bet she’ll motivate me!!” And you TOTALLY did. Thank you so much for showing up and being YOU!!! You really are AWESOME!!!!
I do the same. I turn to Cas or The Minimal Mom and they *always* motivate me. After the program, I'm up and cleaning and organizing. I have used A LOT of Cas's suggestions and tips in my home. And I used to be a fairly lazy and very disorganized person. Not any more, thanks to funny, lovely Cassie.
I was raised by a mom with hoarding tendencies and literally EVERYTHING was piled up in full view all the time…God forbid anything get moved or thrown away😱 So I never understood why I had so much anxiety until I got a place of my own. Even then I didn’t know/understand HOW to organize and store things until I started watching you. Turns out I’m more of a ladybug and need things neat, tidy and organized but all behind closed doors! YOU helped me see that!! Remember these things when you feel you’re in a rut…there are plenty more like me, I’m sure! THANK YOU!
Did we have the same mom? I asked dad the other day why he was OK with living in a house that was made up of newspaper tunnels stacked up 6 ft high and every plastic bag that ever came into the house. I didnt realize how this behavior had rubbed off on me until I started deep decluttering. I’m actually a neat freak as an adult.
@@maggiefletcherscuriouscelt4199 yeah my dad didn't even live through it, he ended up dying at 59 but as I've gotten older and gotten to know my mother on a deeper level it makes sense to me now how great of a man he was for surviving through her and the house as long as he did.
Sometimes I feel tired of cooking and cleaning and doing all the “Mom” things… but, then I get encouraged by people like you to continue to show up and live my life intentionally! ❤️
Vanilla Ice is a great remodeler. He had a show for a couple seasons, where he went and worked with the Amish in PA. We really enjoyed it. He also does million dollar homes down in Fla. Very talented beyond the singing.
My dad was a gold record artist from the late fifties to early sixties. He found newness in the sharing of his songs I know throughout his life. But, just like you said, there were times I know that were harder to get up there and make himself put himself out there. But, he truly loved people (not too unlike you). So that was a big part of why he spoke to the hearts of so many from the stage throughout the decades that he was here on this planet.💖
That life coach was worth it. That one lesson you learned is worth a million bucks! If you didn't show up because you're tired of talking about this subject, you wouldn't have made a difference in our lives! So thank you for showing up and speaking with enthusiasm!
Dryer ironing is a thing! But you don’t have to use ice - a damp rag will do fine. The key is the water vapor from the heat - it’s steaming without having to drag out a steamer. 😁🙌🏻
The song example is so great. And he is always making somebody happy or gets a new fan, even after all those years. :) People are still sharing your stuff, too, and you are saving lives, I'm not kidding. ♥️
I now use a bottle of alcohol, and several droppings of essential oil, usually spearmint, or citrus, and that is my all purpose spray. Cheap and cheerful way to get clean, germ free and the smell of my cleaned area is amazing. So much better than store bought.
@@MultiLisa10 I use alcohol with water. 50/50 to clean my windows . My multi purpose cleaner is diluted dish soap ( mostly water with a few short pumps of dish soap) .
Use caution around acrylic! I like to use it to sanitize in my bathroom but didn't realize that it breaks down acrylic. I had a faucet with an acrylic know that fell apart in my Habs from just trying to turn on the water one day 🙃
I hope you know how much joy you bring, from cleaning and organizing and helping us understand that we're all normal, to your end of video stories that are always my favorite because it makes us all remember that we're all just human and things happen and it's okay. You are awesome, we love you, and we will support you with whatever you want to do
You have no idea how much you've changed my life. I was raised by a mom who loves to clean and she's a cricket so I felt like a housekeeping failure. Now that I understand my style, I can successfully keep my home tidy which keeps my anxiety in check. I would tune into any channel you create. If you want to start making videos of you reacting to stuff I would be in it for the Cass commentary.
I AM ORGANIZINGLY CHALLENGED...I GOT A LOT OUT OF YOUR SHOW, & TUTORIALS....KEEP THE TIPS COMING!! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO TO CURB OUR MESSINESS, & HOARDER TENDENCIES!! YOUR DOING IMPORTANT WORK!! THANK YOU ♡☆♡
I have learned so much from you!! Probably the most important thing was recognizing that we all have individual styles of organizing. I am a natural born organizer (bee/cricket), and I've learned to give grace to my family members who do it differently than me. So thank you for that :). I am a lazy housekeeper so any worthwhile hacks are my go-to. I understand the burnout of doing the sane thing day in and day out working toward curbing resentment or discouragement. I am reading Atomic Habits right now and he talks about the boredom of repetition. The upside is THAT is what separates the amateurs from the professionals; that ability to keep on going despite the boredom. I am so thankful i found you here on TH-cam. Thanks for keeping it real. Makes me love you all the more! As a fellow homebody introvert I feel like I found my tribe! I wish you all the best. You "crack" me up!"🤣
Cass, when I discovered your channel back in 2017/18, I was in desperate need for organizing and cleaning help. Thanks to you, I've been able to manage my anxiety surrounding clutter, cleanliness and making cleaning a day long ordeal. Thank you SO much! You have no idea how much it means 💖
Your life coach really did do her job, Cas! She showed you that you have to show up for life; you said it yourself in your analogy! You obviously learned the lesson and now you are passing it on. We all need to show up, even when we do not feel like it. No excuses. I like the three things a day on the list! I have been doing that steadily and it is working!
You make me smile. I'm a Vermonter living in rural South Australia with an empty nest.... I giggled and learned and pray the Lord blesses you for using your gifts to "shine" and inspire.🇺🇸🇦🇺🇨🇦
Amazing advice! Vanilla Ice is a great example. Just because you love something it doesn’t mean it can’t get monotonous. It’s easy to get in a rut. Sometimes a break is needed and if you need to take one from TH-cam that’s ok! I will always love your content. You really helped me get my life together when I first subscribed years ago!
Hi Cas, thank you for making your videos available on TH-cam. I have been watching so many channels about organizing and decluttering - it was only after finding yours that I understand my own organizing style/preference. I always felt like a failure when I couldn't clear off my desk with the piles of paper whereas my hubby has no problem keeping his desk very clear (no papers at all). Now I know I am a Bee and can proceed to declutter and reorganize in a way that would work for me. I have been decluttering different sections of the house one area at a time. Thank you again for being there for people like me.
I totally get it, it can feel tiring, but just know that in my home you have 3 fans. My 14 and 5 year old watch your videos with me. They look forward to them, they ask to watch them, they are learning from them and they enjoy them. You are our motivation and inspiration in keeping our home clean and organized. You change people's lives. I will watch any video you make. You are awesome and more importantly the REAL DEAL. Thank you for being YOU! But do please take a break when you need it, its important! But always come back because we will miss you. 🙏💗
Love that we’re all cleaning our Cracks! Lol FYI: bleach if left on too long etches porcelain over time and you end up with dull and easily stained porcelain.
Girl, I just found your chanel this week, in the middle of me and my 3 kids under 2yo having COVID. Right now you are my life coach! Seriously, your videos have been motivating me to just keep up with laundry dishes and cooking when I have been soo tired and feeling crappy and burned out. We are through the worst of it, and I just wanted to say thanks.
I'm hearing more and more TH-camrs talk about being tired of making "the same" videos. I understand. I've gone through all of yours, Erica Lucas, Minimal Mom, Secret Slob, Slice of Light and more, and I should feel like I know it all now. I've been decluttering and cleaning with strategies for a year now, but I look forward to all the new content because I love all the new encouragement, insights, and what you all have gained from what you've been doing so long. In just a year, my house and day is completely different than the cluttered mess it was. Still, if it is best to move on at some point, there are so many great videos to revisit, I'm sure we'd all still enjoy them. Your body of work has been a huge help to so many people!! Thanks!!
I absolutely love you. I am currently working on becoming an organizer and a business. Your amazing and videos are really helpful. God bless you for sharing.
Your timing is impeccable! I woke up today knowing I need to clean and reorganize and all the other stuff I always have to do and just did not want to do it. It is my job, and it does still need to be done... so ice ice baby!
@@Clutterbug please reconsider a few of these hacks. Fabric softener is meant to be rinsed off. It is actually a highly flammable liquid. Not safe to have on the walls. The fumes are also toxic to birds. It can cause respiratory distress. Fyi. Also, peppermint oil is dangerous for cats and dogs. Cats can get very sick just inhaling it from the air and dogs will get sick if they lick it. But the symptoms are vague at first and often don’t get notice until the animal is in liver failure. Cleaning sprays and diffusers with certain essential oils are a no no for people with pets. Peppermint, lavender and tree tea oils are three of the big ones.
Thank you so VERY much for producing these videos. After watching a bunch of them, I began decluttering my house. It's taken about a week to get 90% finished and I can feel how much lighter the energy is in every room. WOW!!! Tomorrow I plan on finishing my craft/sewing room. 😘
The spray mop hack is a game changer for always having clean floors. I keep a chordless vacuum and spray mop in my kitchen pantry and when I am cooking I vacuum if needed then mop. My floors are always clean and it doesn't feel like a chore since I am already in the kitchen cooking and use them in between stirring something that needs to be stirred occasionally.
Cass you are the most authentic and real person on social media, this why i keep coming back to your chanel cuz it feels like listening to a friend who is not afraid to share the downs and the ups. Keep up the good work, love you 😘❤
I've tried so many different "get rid of your clutter" and cleaning hacks and none have worked for me. I ran across your videos last night and you're so relatable! I swear, the Universe guided me to you! I spent three hours last night working on clearing out our spare bedroom and completely emptied the closet....I hadn't opened it in probably two years! My husband came home from work this morning to find four big bags of stuff that is leaving my house today! I think he nearly died of shock..LOL Now I can't wait to get started on the bookshelves in there! Thank you Cassandra!
Cass, thank you so much as always for not just a great video, but for being so transparent!! I can't tell you how good it is to hear that even someone as gifted and well known as you gets sick of your job some times!! And I love the tip, not to mention that song cracks me up. Don't know why, it just does! ❤️
I hear you on your career. I hope you find a good balance of trying new paths that make you happy & maintaining the success with the Clutterbug material. I was just telling my spouse tonight how you're career really took off, yet you've remained true to your channel & down to earth. So, I really appreciate that about you. It's also not the end of the world if you ever rebrand or etc...You're surrounded with love & support.
Thank you, Cas! I've learnt a lot in this video! I didn't know about the Pink Stuff, but I use baking soda for my cooktop. I cover it with a damp cloth for 15 minutes and abracadabra! Everything goes away without rubbing, it's magic! And in the meantime, I can do other things!
Thank you so much for all your videos. They have been wonderful at this time in my life. I am 8 months pregnant with very strong nesting urges, but no where to nest (no baby room). Your videos have helped me to do “nesting” by cleaning, organizing and decluttering so I will be as ready as possible for my new little one coming soon.
Cas, I first started following you a decade ago when I had my first baby. You helped me so much back then and over the years. It's been probably a year since I watched your videos consistently and am so glad TH-cam popped this video up for me today. That was a vulnerable confession you drop at the end and it resonated with me so hard. We're not ungrateful for what we have, but damn is it hard to do day in and day out. I will think of you and vanilla ice everyday from here on out. Thank you for sharing those wise words, and as always for your down to earth, honest and relatable videos. Now I'm off to try pledge on my microwave :)
I'm in my 60's and I'm learning so much. First off I suffer from ADHD. Secondly I was raised by a mother who never made me clean anything!! She was the oldest of 4 kids and was responsible for keeping the house clean. Her parents would regularly beat her for messes her brothers and sister would make. Therefore, my house has always been a mess because keeping it clean was never a priority I was taught. Now I can no longer stand living this way. I'm depressed and want organization and cleanliness!!! Your videos have helped so me how!!! Thank you!!
Love your tips & hacks! FYI please be careful not to get pledge on solid surface floors, ie vinyl, tile, etc. It will make the floors slick and with winter & socks coming you can go down in a heart beat, ask me how I know lol
@Vro The same tip also applies for talcum powder when in the bathroom, much more slippery than grease.. Take care esp when elderly relatives are using the Bathroom.. I learned this as a nurse many moons 🌙 ago..
I remember finding your channel like 3 years ago. Its amazing how far u have come. Both in channel. In your own house and yourself. Just wanna give credit to you bc u deserve it. You inspire me
I have to say thank you so much for what you do. This is my first time coming across your channel and it thought wow this woman's taste in organization is so closed to mine. I feel like I'm going to park it here. There are only a few who's styles I really gravitate towards. So thank you for hanging in there as long as you have. I have so much to learn. And I want so much to do better about the house we are in, I just need a little help. You are truly a blessing.
Hi Cas, I love your videos, and I do wash my curtains, but I don't dry them in the dryer. I wash them using a delicate cycle so they don't wrinkle, then I hang them back up as soon as they're done spin drying. They dry perfectly and the house smells fantastic, especially when I use scent beads. It works on sheers and blackouts too.
@@Clutterbug I am so Very Thankful for You and All the Wonderful things, knowledge you share with us, Thank you. Sending you prayers. We all get exhausted and board of our everyday again and again. Maybe doing our routine backwards 🤔 😕 🙃. I am thankful for You. You bring Joy to many.
Thanks for that last bit… I feel exactly the same way sometimes and it couldn’t have come at a better moment. I appreciate your candidness …💗 back to the hustle we love 💃🏻🕺🏻
Please don't stop, Cas! I love your videos. You inspire me, you have helped me so much in transforming my issues with organization. You are really making a difference in my life.
When I was a child my Mom would give us rag towels that we put under our feet and then go back and forth on the floors to dust mop. I'm sure we missed places but we got a lot of the floor cleaned and even buffed. I even had my kids do it when they were little. If your floor had enough space (ours were small but it still worked) it became a game to see how far you could slide.
Me too, we had hard wood floors. My mom would rub them with mineral oil and us kids skated around in our socks to polish it. We had fun and got the job done. Great memory. 😊
Thank you for sharing your coach advise. I was feeling so overwhelmed and tired today with all the mom duties. You made me smile. You are funny! Keep up with the good work one day at a time!
You inspire so many...especially newbies. I get it tho...like cleaning, or laundry, or grocery shopping it's never "done"...every day it's "rinse and repeat"
The Pink Stuff is very, very similar to Australian Gumption and has been around for 60 years and still going strong. You will find that they both contain bi-carb soda/baking soda and that's why they work so well. Also neither contain toxic chemicals. We're on tank water and septic tanks so bleach is a big no for us so I use vinegar instead. Vanilla Ice now has a home improvement tv show called The Vanilla Ice Project. Don't think he's singing that song much anymore!
Cas, thank you for the free life coach advice! It really did help me today. As a teacher, I can relate to that feeling of loving my job (and my students) most of the time, but…some days…😜🤪😩
Vanilla ice is a great example. Even though he was a one hit wonder which literally turned him into a laughing stock, he still performs with so much pride. Also he's been very successful with other projects. You have a great platform but maybe it can slowly transition into something you have more passion for. You just know I could never get tired of you talking about cleaning & organizing.
I've seen him in concert and between Ice Ice Baby and "Go Ninja, Go Ninja, Go!" From the abysmal TMNT movie, he really brought it hard 🤣 he did more songs than that but hell if I remember any!
Haha...except the hook was legit lifted right off Under Pressure written by Queen and David Bowie. His one thing is actually Freddie Mercury's thing (who had many things).
I've been subscribed, but just recently decided I was going to dive in and change a lot of my lazy habits. Your videos have inspired me how to get started, and easy ways to keep it up! Thank you!
Cas, I'm sure people have said this before... Glove up, lovely, the chemicals in all these products really affect your organism, particularly your liver and when your liver struggles, your mental health suffers as a result. Also, you're so amazing at what you're doing and you help so many people... I hope on those days when you're fed up you remember that. ☀️
Cas, thank you for beeing so honest! Yes, no matter which job... There are times when you get bored of it... I hope that will pass - you are touching so many people with your videos and your personality... We would miss you! But who knows, perhaps you will 'spark' up your content with other themes... How ever, we will be there with you!
Cass, just like any caregiver, you have to take care of yourself in order to have enough energy to take care of others or to take care of your own business. If that means cutting back and saying "screw the algorithms" just take the day off! Do something that invigorates your soul and puts a smile on your face. 😃 And get professional help if you know you have ADHD or a tendency towards depression. You deserve the best! You truly have helped so many. We'll understand if you don't put out a video from time to time. 🥰
I am so glad you’re still at it because I look forward to your videos and I am a lazy one but when I look at your videos it motivates & inspire me to get up off my butt & take care of home. We Love you & you should know how you change peoples life’s including mine.
Greetings from Uganda! Just listened to your latest podcast this morning. Just what I needed! You inspire and motivate me all the time. Thanks for being relatable.
I found this so funny to hear that you get sick of talking about organizing & cleaning. Lol. I think everyone reaches a wall at different points. I think the good thing about organizing with people in their home is it’s different spaces & no one is exactly the same so there will be different energy, style, personality & the ability to impact people positively. Thank you for all the wisdom you impart, even when you don’t feel like it!
Going to try the Pledge on everything, i just got a bottle last month on clearance and haven't even used it yet. Never heard of the Pink Stuff but ill try to find it. For the ice in dryer hack, I've always just got a washcloth wet and rung it out and threw it in with the clothes, perfect every time! My sink is right in the laundry area and the freezer is upstairs.
Really want to try the lint roll trick. What a great idea! Especially for lampshades which do tend to get smeary when you dust them. Also peppermint oil. I already use it to keep ants out of the kitchen but dusting with it is truly an inspired thought.
Your advice at the end is gold. I have the best job ever but it's 7 days a week. That gets tiring add trying to manage life and family in between gets hard. But I am so blessed to do what I do and so thankful! We do have to show up as our best.. Go baby ice ice baby! It's a favorite!!!
@@Clutterbug I take care of pets when people travel. I play I don't work for a living. Lol busier than one might think. But it's love love all day long!!!
Definitely will use the knife and wipe trick! Spray and walk away is my favourite one I currently use. Worried about using bicarb and vinegar together after people were saying please don't do both for sink blockages. For me though, sprinkling the bicarb on my carpet and adding vinegar removed an old stain that dedicated carpet cleaning products couldn't do.
I was just researching the use of sodium bicarbonate and vinegar. It is not dangerous unless put into an enclosed bottle or jar. This is because the chemical reaction that will ensue causes a gas release that does the same thing that happens when shaking a bottle or can of soda: a possible explosion. In my experience with a white stovetop and a Hubby without the concept of burnt on stains, using bicarb with vinegar and a little time is easier than other products.
Hi!!! In the middle of changing my life! Thanks to you and the minimal mom! Thank you. Hey FYI. Give that baking soda a second chance, but this time, add a tiny bit of water. Like to make a thin paste out of the baking soda. Paint it on the gross stuck stuff and wait. Go back and wife it off. Real stubborn stuff, I'll use my finger, and it comes off . All of it. The pink stuff was wetter than ur soda. It was not comparable. Thanks again!
You’re the most amazing inspirational person ever Cas! So glad you pressed on through and made this video a couple of days ago. Thank you!! I discovered I was a ladybug a few months back and have already made so many changes - my girls can’t believe the transformation coz I’ve struggled with ‘stuff’ all my life and have bought your organisation course. I’m in isolation at the mo (Covid) and your videos are like a good friend. I love your sparkly personality and cheekiness, when I’m better I’ll be cleaning my crack 😂😂
You didn’t get much from your life coach because you didn’t need what she was giving. Yes, you have your idiosyncrasies, as do we all, but you are a reader and a class act. The one thing you got from her is what you needed most, and it has stuck with you. 💖
After seeing this video this morning I immediately went to the store to buy a spray mop, and it's the answer to all my mopping problems. I absolutely resent vacuuming and mopping, I've been using a swiffer instead of a vacuum cleaner for years, and now this spray mop has made my lazy cleaning life complete.
I discovered the wall cleaning property of fabric softener when using it to remove wallpaper. Fabric softener cleans the walls and also make your house smell nice. Don't use it on wallpaper walls.
I use the spray and leave for my stove top too! I'm not sure how normal this is but my (adult) daughter pulls out her oven regularly and takes her door off her oven and scrubs it by hand at least twice a month. I'm leaning from her but not that over the top, Im happy with my self cleaning oven. lol. She makes me proud in every way ❤️.
Love your videos have gone back and watched them all. I really enjoy the comments at the end for those who have stayed until the end. They make me smile and even think a bit :-) Thanks so much for being you and doing what you do!
Cas, I just so appreciate your honesty. So true , know matter how much we like or love doing something sometimes we don’t want to do it. Thank you for keep doing it for us, We love it
One of your best videos! Great hacks, always fun to watch your special brand of humor, restful beautiful autumn decor, great encouraging words. Thank you for continuing to do what you do, even when you're weary!
Tbh I don't want to spend my free time watching another cleaning video, but I do it because it's you! And when I do need a kick in the right direction I've relied on you to do it, so thanks x
I’ve just realised at the age of 51 that I have ADHD. I always get distracted when going into another room with stuff and never get a room finished. The stuff to leave the room bag is an amazing idea!
Oh wonderful Cass! Sometimes I don't feel like showing up for my job as a nurse. But, I also plow though those thoughts and talk to myself, "You know you really love helping others!", "Get out of bed! Those patients don't want to be in the hospital any more than you!" (Well, most of them...lol) I usually find these shifts to be my best. It isn't that a patient is any less sick or family less demanding. It is because I gave myself a pep talk and went into the shift with determination to do what needs to be done. Maybe we should each start our day with a self pep talk! 😃
I have been feeling that way lately. I love my job. I get to work from home and work w/patients over the phone. It is literally the best job for me. I'm grateful. But I have been feeling the monotony of it. And of course it is rainy season so I'm sure that is lending to my feeling. I will definitely use Vanilla Ice. lol. I love him. :)
Thank you for showing up, even when you might not feel like it. I love the personal stories you share are how honest and real you are. I always learn something from you and you always motivate me to go clean or organize something. I also love your Canadian accent, since I grew up in Ontario, Canada, eh.
These tips are SO helpful, exactly what I need. If you want to try something different, I really enjoyed the video where you introduced me to chalk paint.
I love the ice ice baby reference! As a stay at home mom of school aged kids I feel ya! I'm so DONE with the cleaning and meal planning and the caring of the home that some days I just want to run away! But this is my JOB and I just pick myself up, turn on some good music and just get 'er done!
Yes, thank you so much for showing up. This was a very refreshing overview of things that I may have heard before but you sunk them into my head with your basic logic about you’ve got olive oil, you’ve got furniture polish, just use it! I love you girl keep it up you’re not Vanilla IceBut thanks for the life coach moment! I love you
One thumbs down….. looks like your life coach was here after all. Great tips and hacks as always! Thanks for showing up and shaking your duster for us 😁
#3 1:34 Sticky tape leaves behind a slight residue of glue. Therefore, in the long run it’s attracting more lint/dust to the surface. As such, adhesive tape rollers should only be used on items that can be laundered. Most of the other hacks are great!
Love your tips and advice - sometimes when we are tired of doing what we are doing- it’s growing pains Like a seed pushing through soil, a seed breaks through to doing something a little different and changes step by step
We have a lot of carpet in our home. I put peppermint oil (and eucalyptus sometimes) in baking soda to use as carpet freshener. The whole house smells fresh and no perfumes. I also do plain baking soda too. I’m totally using the knife/towel trick today. I pull my stove out periodically to clean the cracks. I too have a stove like yours but luckily it’s black on top. Baking soda and scratch free sponge does wonders. I use vinegar to clean the soda residue. Might have to get that pink stuff though.
Hi cas , your videos are helping me so much as a newlywed almost 25 year old today I binge cleaned my house and its because I found one of your old videos. Dont give up your channel helps me so much and you give awsome advice -fellow ADHD gal here . Anyway thanks keep going :)
Cas, please don’t give up on cleaning or organizing…today I was like, “I know I don’t want to clean but I know I need to. I’ll turn on Cas and I bet she’ll motivate me!!” And you TOTALLY did. Thank you so much for showing up and being YOU!!! You really are AWESOME!!!!
Ditto! Same! She’s a miracle motivator!
I do the same. I turn to Cas or The Minimal Mom and they *always* motivate me. After the program, I'm up and cleaning and organizing. I have used A LOT of Cas's suggestions and tips in my home. And I used to be a fairly lazy and very disorganized person. Not any more, thanks to funny, lovely Cassie.
I was raised by a mom with hoarding tendencies and literally EVERYTHING was piled up in full view all the time…God forbid anything get moved or thrown away😱 So I never understood why I had so much anxiety until I got a place of my own. Even then I didn’t know/understand HOW to organize and store things until I started watching you. Turns out I’m more of a ladybug and need things neat, tidy and organized but all behind closed doors! YOU helped me see that!! Remember these things when you feel you’re in a rut…there are plenty more like me, I’m sure! THANK YOU!
Omg. Same!
Did we have the same mom? I asked dad the other day why he was OK with living in a house that was made up of newspaper tunnels stacked up 6 ft high and every plastic bag that ever came into the house. I didnt realize how this behavior had rubbed off on me until I started deep decluttering. I’m actually a neat freak as an adult.
@@maggiefletcherscuriouscelt4199 yeah my dad didn't even live through it, he ended up dying at 59 but as I've gotten older and gotten to know my mother on a deeper level it makes sense to me now how great of a man he was for surviving through her and the house as long as he did.
Yes yes and yes! Ditto here!
@@sarahbliss8417 that IS really sad about your Dad passing. Is your Mom still hoarding? Just wondering. It must be especially hard on kids…
Sometimes I feel tired of cooking and cleaning and doing all the “Mom” things… but, then I get encouraged by people like you to continue to show up and live my life intentionally! ❤️
This hit so close to home!! Thank you for this comment. You encouraged me to keep showing up!
Vanilla Ice is a great remodeler. He had a show for a couple seasons, where he went and worked with the Amish in PA. We really enjoyed it. He also does million dollar homes down in Fla. Very talented beyond the singing.
My dad was a gold record artist from the late fifties to early sixties. He found newness in the sharing of his songs I know throughout his life.

So that was a big part of why he spoke to the hearts of so many from the stage throughout the decades that he was here on this planet.💖

So true!
Dryer ironing is a thing! But you don’t have to use ice - a damp rag will do fine. The key is the water vapor from the heat - it’s steaming without having to drag out a steamer. 😁🙌🏻
The song example is so great. And he is always making somebody happy or gets a new fan, even after all those years. :) People are still sharing your stuff, too, and you are saving lives, I'm not kidding. ♥️

Use caution around acrylic! I like to use it to sanitize in my bathroom but didn't realize that it breaks down acrylic. I had a faucet with an acrylic know that fell apart in my Habs from just trying to turn on the water one day 🙃
I hope you know how much joy you bring, from cleaning and organizing and helping us understand that we're all normal, to your end of video stories that are always my favorite because it makes us all remember that we're all just human and things happen and it's okay. You are awesome, we love you, and we will support you with whatever you want to do
You have no idea how much you've changed my life. I was raised by a mom who loves to clean and she's a cricket so I felt like a housekeeping failure. Now that I understand my style, I can successfully keep my home tidy which keeps my anxiety in check.
I would tune into any channel you create. If you want to start making videos of you reacting to stuff I would be in it for the Cass commentary.
Ha ha lol 😂 right C! 🤣
I AM ORGANIZINGLY CHALLENGED...I GOT A LOT OUT OF YOUR SHOW, & TUTORIALS....KEEP THE TIPS COMING!! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO TO CURB OUR MESSINESS, & HOARDER TENDENCIES!! YOUR DOING IMPORTANT WORK!! THANK YOU ♡☆♡
I have learned so much from you!! Probably the most important thing was recognizing that we all have individual styles of organizing. I am a natural born organizer (bee/cricket), and I've learned to give grace to my family members who do it differently than me. So thank you for that :).
I am a lazy housekeeper so any worthwhile hacks are my go-to. I understand the burnout of doing the sane thing day in and day out working toward curbing resentment or discouragement. I am reading Atomic Habits right now and he talks about the boredom of repetition. The upside is THAT is what separates the amateurs from the professionals; that ability to keep on going despite the boredom.
I am so thankful i found you here on TH-cam. Thanks for keeping it real. Makes me love you all the more! As a fellow homebody introvert I feel like I found my tribe!
I wish you all the best. You "crack" me up!"🤣
I love your end of the video stories and the honesty. 👏
Cass, when I discovered your channel back in 2017/18, I was in desperate need for organizing and cleaning help. Thanks to you, I've been able to manage my anxiety surrounding clutter, cleanliness and making cleaning a day long ordeal. Thank you SO much! You have no idea how much it means 💖
Your life coach really did do her job, Cas! She showed you that you have to show up for life; you said it yourself in your analogy! You obviously learned the lesson and now you are passing it on. We all need to show up, even when we do not feel like it. No excuses. I like the three things a day on the list! I have been doing that steadily and it is working!
I absolutely LOVE her honesty!
You make me smile.
I'm a Vermonter living in rural South Australia with an empty nest....
I giggled and learned and pray the Lord blesses you for using your gifts to "shine" and inspire.🇺🇸🇦🇺🇨🇦
Amazing advice! Vanilla Ice is a great example. Just because you love something it doesn’t mean it can’t get monotonous. It’s easy to get in a rut. Sometimes a break is needed and if you need to take one from TH-cam that’s ok! I will always love your content. You really helped me get my life together when I first subscribed years ago!
Hi Cas, thank you for making your videos available on TH-cam. I have been watching so many channels about organizing and decluttering - it was only after finding yours that I understand my own organizing style/preference. I always felt like a failure when I couldn't clear off my desk with the piles of paper whereas my hubby has no problem keeping his desk very clear (no papers at all). Now I know I am a Bee and can proceed to declutter and reorganize in a way that would work for me. I have been decluttering different sections of the house one area at a time. Thank you again for being there for people like me.
I totally get it, it can feel tiring, but just know that in my home you have 3 fans. My 14 and 5 year old watch your videos with me. They look forward to them, they ask to watch them, they are learning from them and they enjoy them. You are our motivation and inspiration in keeping our home clean and organized. You change people's lives. I will watch any video you make. You are awesome and more importantly the REAL DEAL. Thank you for being YOU! But do please take a break when you need it, its important! But always come back because we will miss you. 🙏💗
Aw, thank you! Hello kids!! Thanks for watching!
They say, "Hello! " with giggles and smiles! Thank you, you made their day! Have a good night ! 🤗☺️
Furniture polish on white appliances... trying that! Whoever designed textured white plastic handles that hang onto all the dirt was evil.
LOL
Love that we’re all cleaning our Cracks! Lol
FYI: bleach if left on too long etches porcelain over time and you end up with dull and easily stained porcelain.
Wow! Good to know!
#truth
Vinegar can as well. I totally screwed up a good faucet that way.
Thank you!! Telling my husband this who loves bleach 😬
Girl, I just found your chanel this week, in the middle of me and my 3 kids under 2yo having COVID. Right now you are my life coach! Seriously, your videos have been motivating me to just keep up with laundry dishes and cooking when I have been soo tired and feeling crappy and burned out. We are through the worst of it, and I just wanted to say thanks.
I'm hearing more and more TH-camrs talk about being tired of making "the same" videos. I understand. I've gone through all of yours, Erica Lucas, Minimal Mom, Secret Slob, Slice of Light and more, and I should feel like I know it all now. I've been decluttering and cleaning with strategies for a year now, but I look forward to all the new content because I love all the new encouragement, insights, and what you all have gained from what you've been doing so long. In just a year, my house and day is completely different than the cluttered mess it was. Still, if it is best to move on at some point, there are so many great videos to revisit, I'm sure we'd all still enjoy them. Your body of work has been a huge help to so many people!! Thanks!!
I'm not going anywhere! I was just venting ;P
@@Clutterbug 😁😁😁
I absolutely love you. I am currently working on becoming an organizer and a business. Your amazing and videos are really helpful. God bless you for sharing.
You're welcome!
Your timing is impeccable! I woke up today knowing I need to clean and reorganize and all the other stuff I always have to do and just did not want to do it. It is my job, and it does still need to be done... so ice ice baby!
Love it!
@@Clutterbug please reconsider a few of these hacks. Fabric softener is meant to be rinsed off. It is actually a highly flammable liquid. Not safe to have on the walls. The fumes are also toxic to birds. It can cause respiratory distress. Fyi.
Also, peppermint oil is dangerous for cats and dogs. Cats can get very sick just inhaling it from the air and dogs will get sick if they lick it. But the symptoms are vague at first and often don’t get notice until the animal is in liver failure. Cleaning sprays and diffusers with certain essential oils are a no no for people with pets. Peppermint, lavender and tree tea oils are three of the big ones.
Thank you so VERY much for producing these videos. After watching a bunch of them, I began decluttering my house. It's taken about a week to get 90% finished and I can feel how much lighter the energy is in every room. WOW!!! Tomorrow I plan on finishing my craft/sewing room. 😘
The spray mop hack is a game changer for always having clean floors. I keep a chordless vacuum and spray mop in my kitchen pantry and when I am cooking I vacuum if needed then mop. My floors are always clean and it doesn't feel like a chore since I am already in the kitchen cooking and use them in between stirring something that needs to be stirred occasionally.
Cass you are the most authentic and real person on social media, this why i keep coming back to your chanel cuz it feels like listening to a friend who is not afraid to share the downs and the ups. Keep up the good work, love you 😘❤
Thank you!
We appericiate you showing up for us on You Tube you help inspire us with each and every video!
I've tried so many different "get rid of your clutter" and cleaning hacks and none have worked for me. I ran across your videos last night and you're so relatable! I swear, the Universe guided me to you! I spent three hours last night working on clearing out our spare bedroom and completely emptied the closet....I hadn't opened it in probably two years! My husband came home from work this morning to find four big bags of stuff that is leaving my house today! I think he nearly died of shock..LOL Now I can't wait to get started on the bookshelves in there! Thank you Cassandra!
Yay! You are so welcome!
Cass, thank you so much as always for not just a great video, but for being so transparent!! I can't tell you how good it is to hear that even someone as gifted and well known as you gets sick of your job some times!! And I love the tip, not to mention that song cracks me up. Don't know why, it just does! ❤️
I hear you on your career. I hope you find a good balance of trying new paths that make you happy & maintaining the success with the Clutterbug material. I was just telling my spouse tonight how you're career really took off, yet you've remained true to your channel & down to earth. So, I really appreciate that about you. It's also not the end of the world if you ever rebrand or etc...You're surrounded with love & support.
Thank you, Cas! I've learnt a lot in this video! I didn't know about the Pink Stuff, but I use baking soda for my cooktop. I cover it with a damp cloth for 15 minutes and abracadabra! Everything goes away without rubbing, it's magic! And in the meantime, I can do other things!
That's awesome!
Thank you so much for all your videos. They have been wonderful at this time in my life. I am 8 months pregnant with very strong nesting urges, but no where to nest (no baby room). Your videos have helped me to do “nesting” by cleaning, organizing and decluttering so I will be as ready as possible for my new little one coming soon.
Cas, I first started following you a decade ago when I had my first baby. You helped me so much back then and over the years. It's been probably a year since I watched your videos consistently and am so glad TH-cam popped this video up for me today. That was a vulnerable confession you drop at the end and it resonated with me so hard. We're not ungrateful for what we have, but damn is it hard to do day in and day out. I will think of you and vanilla ice everyday from here on out. Thank you for sharing those wise words, and as always for your down to earth, honest and relatable videos. Now I'm off to try pledge on my microwave :)
Did you pledge your microwave?! Were you as shocked as I was that it ACTUALLY makes it streak free?!!
@@Clutterbug it's some kinda witch craft! It totally worked.
I'm in my 60's and I'm learning so much. First off I suffer from ADHD. Secondly I was raised by a mother who never made me clean anything!! She was the oldest of 4 kids and was responsible for keeping the house clean. Her parents would regularly beat her for messes her brothers and sister would make. Therefore, my house has always been a mess because keeping it clean was never a priority I was taught. Now I can no longer stand living this way. I'm depressed and want organization and cleanliness!!!
Your videos have helped so me how!!! Thank you!!
Love your tips & hacks! FYI please be careful not to get pledge on solid surface floors, ie vinyl, tile, etc. It will make the floors slick and with winter & socks coming you can go down in a heart beat, ask me how I know lol
@Vro
The same tip also applies for talcum powder when in the bathroom, much more slippery than grease..
Take care esp when elderly relatives are using the Bathroom..
I learned this as a nurse many moons 🌙 ago..
I remember finding your channel like 3 years ago. Its amazing how far u have come. Both in channel. In your own house and yourself. Just wanna give credit to you bc u deserve it. You inspire me
I have to say thank you so much for what you do. This is my first time coming across your channel and it thought wow this woman's taste in organization is so closed to mine. I feel like I'm going to park it here. There are only a few who's styles I really gravitate towards. So thank you for hanging in there as long as you have. I have so much to learn. And I want so much to do better about the house we are in, I just need a little help. You are truly a blessing.
Hi Cas, I love your videos, and I do wash my curtains, but I don't dry them in the dryer. I wash them using a delicate cycle so they don't wrinkle, then I hang them back up as soon as they're done spin drying. They dry perfectly and the house smells fantastic, especially when I use scent beads. It works on sheers and blackouts too.
Awesome!
I will keep this last story near my heart to keep me going when I feel like giving up.
Thank you. Please keep going. Alot of us Need you.
I'm not going anywhere!
@@Clutterbug I am so Very Thankful for You and All the Wonderful things, knowledge you share with us, Thank you. Sending you prayers. We all get exhausted and board of our everyday again and again. Maybe doing our routine backwards 🤔 😕 🙃. I am thankful for You. You bring Joy to many.
Thanks for that last bit… I feel exactly the same way sometimes and it couldn’t have come at a better moment. I appreciate your candidness …💗 back to the hustle we love 💃🏻🕺🏻
You're welcome!
Please don't stop, Cas! I love your videos. You inspire me, you have helped me so much in transforming my issues with organization. You are really making a difference in my life.
When I was a child my Mom would give us rag towels that we put under our feet and then go back and forth on the floors to dust mop. I'm sure we missed places but we got a lot of the floor cleaned and even buffed. I even had my kids do it when they were little. If your floor had enough space (ours were small but it still worked) it became a game to see how far you could slide.
Me too, we had hard wood floors. My mom would rub them with mineral oil and us kids skated around in our socks to polish it. We had fun and got the job done. Great memory. 😊
Wish I had known about that as a young mom!!
Thank you for sharing your coach advise. I was feeling so overwhelmed and tired today with all the mom duties. You made me smile. You are funny! Keep up with the good work one day at a time!
You inspire so many...especially newbies. I get it tho...like cleaning, or laundry, or grocery shopping it's never "done"...every day it's "rinse and repeat"
The Pink Stuff is very, very similar to Australian Gumption and has been around for 60 years and still going strong. You will find that they both contain bi-carb soda/baking soda and that's why they work so well. Also neither contain toxic chemicals. We're on tank water and septic tanks so bleach is a big no for us so I use vinegar instead. Vanilla Ice now has a home improvement tv show called The Vanilla Ice Project. Don't think he's singing that song much anymore!
Cas, thank you for the free life coach advice! It really did help me today. As a teacher, I can relate to that feeling of loving my job (and my students) most of the time, but…some days…😜🤪😩
I definitely had the same thought. I'm off for veterans day today and I'm stuck grading tons of papers, but that's really good advice to think of. ❤
Ditto to both of you, Beth and Kristina!! Good luck ladies! Go rock tomorrow and take some time for yourselves this weekend!!!
This advice could not have come at a better time. I am a teacher of high school freshman but considering a change.
Vanilla ice is a great example. Even though he was a one hit wonder which literally turned him into a laughing stock, he still performs with so much pride. Also he's been very successful with other projects. You have a great platform but maybe it can slowly transition into something you have more passion for. You just know I could never get tired of you talking about cleaning & organizing.
I've seen him in concert and between Ice Ice Baby and "Go Ninja, Go Ninja, Go!" From the abysmal TMNT movie, he really brought it hard 🤣 he did more songs than that but hell if I remember any!
Even my 16 year old son knows the words to Ice, Ice Baby! Never tire of that song.
Haha...except the hook was legit lifted right off Under Pressure written by Queen and David Bowie. His one thing is actually Freddie Mercury's thing (who had many things).
It wasn't just the 1 hit wonder thing , it was illegally using Queen's 'Under Pressure" for it.
Love Vanilla Ice to this day.
I've been subscribed, but just recently decided I was going to dive in and change a lot of my lazy habits. Your videos have inspired me how to get started, and easy ways to keep it up! Thank you!
Cas, I'm sure people have said this before... Glove up, lovely, the chemicals in all these products really affect your organism, particularly your liver and when your liver struggles, your mental health suffers as a result. Also, you're so amazing at what you're doing and you help so many people... I hope on those days when you're fed up you remember that. ☀️
Cas, thank you for beeing so honest! Yes, no matter which job... There are times when you get bored of it... I hope that will pass - you are touching so many people with your videos and your personality... We would miss you! But who knows, perhaps you will 'spark' up your content with other themes... How ever, we will be there with you!
I'm not going anywhere ;)
Cass, just like any caregiver, you have to take care of yourself in order to have enough energy to take care of others or to take care of your own business. If that means cutting back and saying "screw the algorithms" just take the day off! Do something that invigorates your soul and puts a smile on your face. 😃 And get professional help if you know you have ADHD or a tendency towards depression. You deserve the best! You truly have helped so many. We'll understand if you don't put out a video from time to time. 🥰
I heart you! “Brush & flush…”. You speak to me! Keep ‘em coming.
I am so glad you’re still at it because I look forward to your videos and I am a lazy one but when I look at your videos it motivates & inspire me to get up off my butt & take care of home. We Love you & you should know how you change peoples life’s including mine.
Love, love, love your sense of humor. I get to learn new things, be entertained and have a good laugh all at the same time.
Glad you enjoy it!
Greetings from Uganda! Just listened to your latest podcast this morning. Just what I needed! You inspire and motivate me all the time. Thanks for being relatable.
I found this so funny to hear that you get sick of talking about organizing & cleaning. Lol. I think everyone reaches a wall at different points. I think the good thing about organizing with people in their home is it’s different spaces & no one is exactly the same so there will be different energy, style, personality & the ability to impact people positively. Thank you for all the wisdom you impart, even when you don’t feel like it!
Going to try the Pledge on everything, i just got a bottle last month on clearance and haven't even used it yet. Never heard of the Pink Stuff but ill try to find it.
For the ice in dryer hack, I've always just got a washcloth wet and rung it out and threw it in with the clothes, perfect every time! My sink is right in the laundry area and the freezer is upstairs.
You can get The Pink Stuff on Amazon here: amzn.to/3wHzL6C
You can also try Pink Solution! It is at London Drugs and Costco
The Dollar Tree duster attached to slippers are really awesome 🤩 👍🏻
Really want to try the lint roll trick. What a great idea! Especially for lampshades which do tend to get smeary when you dust them. Also peppermint oil. I already use it to keep ants out of the kitchen but dusting with it is truly an inspired thought.
Your advice at the end is gold. I have the best job ever but it's 7 days a week. That gets tiring add trying to manage life and family in between gets hard. But I am so blessed to do what I do and so thankful! We do have to show up as our best.. Go baby ice ice baby! It's a favorite!!!
Wow, 7 days would be hard.
@@Clutterbug I take care of pets when people travel. I play I don't work for a living. Lol busier than one might think. But it's love love all day long!!!
Definitely will use the knife and wipe trick! Spray and walk away is my favourite one I currently use. Worried about using bicarb and vinegar together after people were saying please don't do both for sink blockages. For me though, sprinkling the bicarb on my carpet and adding vinegar removed an old stain that dedicated carpet cleaning products couldn't do.
I was just researching the use of sodium bicarbonate and vinegar. It is not dangerous unless put into an enclosed bottle or jar. This is because the chemical reaction that will ensue causes a gas release that does the same thing that happens when shaking a bottle or can of soda: a possible explosion.
In my experience with a white stovetop and a Hubby without the concept of burnt on stains, using bicarb with vinegar and a little time is easier than other products.
@@judytaylor819 thank you! That may be why there was warnings about the putting in pipes.
Hi!!! In the middle of changing my life! Thanks to you and the minimal mom! Thank you. Hey FYI. Give that baking soda a second chance, but this time, add a tiny bit of water. Like to make a thin paste out of the baking soda. Paint it on the gross stuck stuff and wait. Go back and wife it off. Real stubborn stuff, I'll use my finger, and it comes off . All of it. The pink stuff was wetter than ur soda. It was not comparable.
Thanks again!
OMG, I need to have this LIST!!! I'll have to watch it again several times!
Thank you Cass love you I watch you everyday while driving to work and before go to bed . You inspired me
You’re the most amazing inspirational person ever Cas! So glad you pressed on through and made this video a couple of days ago. Thank you!! I discovered I was a ladybug a few months back and have already made so many changes - my girls can’t believe the transformation coz I’ve struggled with ‘stuff’ all my life and have bought your organisation course. I’m in isolation at the mo (Covid) and your videos are like a good friend. I love your sparkly personality and cheekiness, when I’m better I’ll be cleaning my crack 😂😂
I'm an adhd human and you make my life easier. THANK YOUUUUUU
YOU'RE WELCOMEEEEEEEEEE!
You didn’t get much from your life coach because you didn’t need what she was giving. Yes, you have your idiosyncrasies, as do we all, but you are a reader and a class act. The one thing you got from her is what you needed most, and it has stuck with you. 💖
Wise you are.
After seeing this video this morning I immediately went to the store to buy a spray mop, and it's the answer to all my mopping problems. I absolutely resent vacuuming and mopping, I've been using a swiffer instead of a vacuum cleaner for years, and now this spray mop has made my lazy cleaning life complete.
Glad I could help!
I discovered the wall cleaning property of fabric softener when using it to remove wallpaper. Fabric softener cleans the walls and also make your house smell nice. Don't use it on wallpaper walls.
I use the spray and leave for my stove top too! I'm not sure how normal this is but my (adult) daughter pulls out her oven regularly and takes her door off her oven and scrubs it by hand at least twice a month. I'm leaning from her but not that over the top, Im happy with my self cleaning oven. lol. She makes me proud in every way ❤️.
Love your videos have gone back and watched them all. I really enjoy the comments at the end for those who have stayed until the end. They make me smile and even think a bit :-) Thanks so much for being you and doing what you do!
That ending is my favorite part! You never know what she'll say this time, but I usually laugh 😉
Cas, I just so appreciate your honesty. So true , know matter how much we like or love doing something sometimes we don’t want to do it. Thank you for keep doing it for us, We love it
I'm so glad!
One of your best videos! Great hacks, always fun to watch your special brand of humor, restful beautiful autumn decor, great encouraging words. Thank you for continuing to do what you do, even when you're weary!
You're welcome!
I tried that Pink Stuff...INCREDIBLE.... Totally cleaned my stove top! Thanks Cas!
You're welcome!!
Tbh I don't want to spend my free time watching another cleaning video, but I do it because it's you! And when I do need a kick in the right direction I've relied on you to do it, so thanks x
Thanks Cas for showing up to work today. Thanks for being just the motivation to keep doing what needs to be done.
You're welcome!
Great tips! Heads up, olive oil goes rancid rather quickly compared to other oils. Mineral oil might be a better cleaning agent 💙
Thanks for sharing!
I’ve just realised at the age of 51 that I have ADHD. I always get distracted when going into another room with stuff and never get a room finished. The stuff to leave the room bag is an amazing idea!
Love you Cass and love your channel. Keep doing your thing girl!
Oh wonderful Cass! Sometimes I don't feel like showing up for my job as a nurse. But, I also plow though those thoughts and talk to myself, "You know you really love helping others!", "Get out of bed! Those patients don't want to be in the hospital any more than you!" (Well, most of them...lol) I usually find these shifts to be my best. It isn't that a patient is any less sick or family less demanding. It is because I gave myself a pep talk and went into the shift with determination to do what needs to be done. Maybe we should each start our day with a self pep talk! 😃
Sounds good!
I have been feeling that way lately. I love my job. I get to work from home and work w/patients over the phone. It is literally the best job for me. I'm grateful. But I have been feeling the monotony of it. And of course it is rainy season so I'm sure that is lending to my feeling. I will definitely use Vanilla Ice. lol. I love him. :)
Thank you for showing up, even when you might not feel like it. I love the personal stories you share are how honest and real you are. I always learn something from you and you always motivate me to go clean or organize something. I also love your Canadian accent, since I grew up in Ontario, Canada, eh.
These tips are SO helpful, exactly what I need. If you want to try something different, I really enjoyed the video where you introduced me to chalk paint.
I love the ice ice baby reference! As a stay at home mom of school aged kids I feel ya! I'm so DONE with the cleaning and meal planning and the caring of the home that some days I just want to run away! But this is my JOB and I just pick myself up, turn on some good music and just get 'er done!
Exactly!
You are such a beautiful sweet lady. Thanks for all you share with us and God bless you.
Yes, thank you so much for showing up. This was a very refreshing overview of things that I may have heard before but you sunk them into my head with your basic logic about you’ve got olive oil, you’ve got furniture polish, just use it! I love you girl keep it up you’re not Vanilla IceBut thanks for the life coach moment! I love you
One thumbs down….. looks like your life coach was here after all.
Great tips and hacks as always! Thanks for showing up and shaking your duster for us 😁
Love these! I need to find a cleaning hack for the oven.
#3 1:34 Sticky tape leaves behind a slight residue of glue. Therefore, in the long run it’s attracting more lint/dust to the surface. As such, adhesive tape rollers should only be used on items that can be laundered.
Most of the other hacks are great!
That's good to know.
Love your tips and advice - sometimes when we are tired of doing what we are doing- it’s growing pains
Like a seed pushing through soil, a seed breaks through to doing something a little different and changes step by step
The flower that blooms in adversity is the rarest and most beautiful of all.
Thank you for the reminder. 🌻🌺🌸
We have a lot of carpet in our home. I put peppermint oil (and eucalyptus sometimes) in baking soda to use as carpet freshener. The whole house smells fresh and no perfumes. I also do plain baking soda too.
I’m totally using the knife/towel trick today. I pull my stove out periodically to clean the cracks. I too have a stove like yours but luckily it’s black on top. Baking soda and scratch free sponge does wonders. I use vinegar to clean the soda residue. Might have to get that pink stuff though.
Hi cas , your videos are helping me so much as a newlywed almost 25 year old today I binge cleaned my house and its because I found one of your old videos. Dont give up your channel helps me so much and you give awsome advice -fellow ADHD gal here . Anyway thanks keep going :)
Your the best! Always laughing at my phone like a weirdo when I watch you 😂. All I got from you today was “clean your crack!” 😂😂😂. Love it!
I know I kept snickering thru the whole video like a twelve year old.😂😅😉
Excellent down to earth tips. Loved the personalised feature at the end. Thank you for being real and all the fantastic hacks.
I use my lint roller to clean my echos. It gets the dust out of the speakers perfectly
genius!!
Great tip! I used to work at a hotel where we used industrial size lint rollers to clean the bathroom floors.
