- If you have a small space or lack of storage, organizing can be extra hard. I'm organizing Emily's small home using some clever small-space storage solutions! I hope you find some inspiration and organizing ideas in this video!

Cas you did an amazing job! But i have to give Joe credit. Im glad he's warmed up to the idea of being on camera and even though he seems like he's not a man of many words, I don't think you could do many of these makeovers without him. So thank you Joe for being a supportive husband and helping Cas bring us this great content! ❤
Yes! Love to see Joe. Not that I expect him to be Mr. entertaining, but that he is exactly who he is- supportive and dependable and cute to look at 🤣
Luv urvideos, Cas! Ur personality is beyond entertaining! SOO glad 2 c Joe! What a nice surprise-- he's a cutie! Luv 2 u both.❤
Thank you, Joe!
Joe’s facial expressions say it all! No words necessary! 😂
I am with you on the family tree stuff! I have been to 2 week long Genealogy Retreats - we event went to Salt Lake City to the big Conference and spent 3 days at the Family Search Library! So much fun! My granddaughter was thrilled to find out we are related to Shirley Temple!
Please do more small space organizing like this video. Thanks.
So refreshing to see a normal size home!
Yeah Cass said it was 'small' but I thought it was a normal size too!
I know! 👍🏼😊
Yes!!!
I think it would be helpful to see really small (UK/Europe sized) because that’s when you see some really interesting solutions/products or furniture that has double functions.
Yes
I miss those types of videos ❤when you go to people’s houses and transform them ❤❤
I love it too. Classy updates on a budget.
Raise your hand if like me you were worried about Josh's StarWars pictures and where they'd end up. 🤚 Great job, to Cas, Joe and Emily for getting it all done. Side note: Loved how well-behaved Lucy was during the whole thing and I did notice the growth between videos. Puppies grow so fast!!! 🐶
Hello Canada
🤚I am a StarWars nerd!! Leave that stuff alone.
🙋🏼♀️Josh might beat Cas & Emily with his light saber. 😂
Agree also on Lucy being well behaved and she’s so cute. Transformation is great!!!! Joe just knows how to do it all.
Cas the ancestry research is awesome!!! I also solved a secret in the family and was able to give someone answers before he died. It was amazing.
🙋🏽♀️
🥺🙋🏻♀️
It's so refreshing to see a real life, real people make over instead of pinterest-perfect. Great job.
Yes I agree. And even though I'd love to live in a Pinterest
looking home that will never happen but what Cas did here I can certainly do for my home!
This is great! Those of us who live in genuinely small spaces with next to no storage holler at TH-cam whenever we're shown a basement or garage WHERE ALL THE STUFF actually is. Working out ways to hide things in plain sight, while still keeping it accessible and leaving space to move around, is an ongoing dilemma. Thanks for the ideas, Cas and Emily.
You're welcome!
Try being in a small spacer as a fashionista and Prepper!
YES! I don't have a garage OR a basement!
Always remember, you cannot organise clutter - the less you have to organise, the easier it is. You need space to organise.
@@americafirst9144What a combination!
I love the canadian/american defintion of "small" 😆. It's so interesting how where we live shapes our life and sense of what normal looks like ❤
Hi! I am with you on that! Definition of small can vary a Lot! From one country to another!
The kitchen there is my dream kitchen! Probably 4 x the size of my kitchen!
One thing I find curious is placing the microwaveoven above the cook top! 🤔
I feel there would be a risk of being burnt by steam from pots on the stove! And could make the microwave too high to reach easily! Often seen in north American kitchens.
@@mika72.-BoisThe microwaves have a range fan on the bottom, so it pulls it elsewhere.
My cousins and family live in Canada. I've never been in a large home....
Would love to see a makeover for a 700 sq ft house
I find this house actually kind of spacious..I’m from the Netherlands 😂
Thanks for inviting us over, Emily! 😄 I love what you and Cas (and Joe!!) did with the available space. Looks fantastic and so functional!
You're welcome!
Joe really deserves praise.... quite a bit of McGivering! You guys both did such a great job. An amazing change to a small space.
Joe is a champ. A real keeper. Let's have more videos with him in it, please. 💜💜
Joe is the MVP in this project. He is a very patient man!
This transformation made me emotional. Seeing how you can change a space to make it more functional is so gratifying!! Wanna come to my house? 😄
My hero Cas! I would love more videos like this , and longer. Love watching you sort and rearrange. Hugs from a fellow ADHD girl
💕
fyi, I was adopted 62 years ago and in 2017 I did ancestory and found my birth father/family. It has been wonderful as the whole family has accepted me and treats me like a daughter/sister. I have not spoken to many others besides this immediate group, but it has been a blessing!
This house is big compared to mine 😂 I wish I had this much room lol
We had a reunion several years ago, where a few "new" cousins appeared out of the woodwork.
We were all quite happy to meet them.
I had brief contact with one "restored" cousin and was able to pass along a thumb drive containing a spreadsheet of several generations of ancestors.
I don't know what I love more: the pink coat, Joe and you working together(so cute) or the AFTER on this makeover! I can't pick, I won't pick. I LOVE IT ALL> :)
Also to mention, the tall book shelfs also have different optional doors if you don´t want to see your stuff, you can get full covered, half cover and half glass or full glass so it is such a versatile solution.
There's also a removable door that is glass with a panel behind it. You can personalise the panel with photos, pictures, fabric, wallpaper, etc
Or also put labels in that frame together with your preferred decoration so the stuff is hidden but you can still see where it is without opening doors!
Nice! I would like to share my best trick to store shoes in the entry space : the Ikea Billy bookcase. It has changed my life! My shoe size is 10 and it fits over 70 pairs of shoes and boots. You can adjust the height of the shelves and add as many shelves to customize the piece. I added the Oxberg doors half glass, half wood, and for the part that the glass exposes, I used baskets to store sandals, scarves and other for a clean, clutterless look that doesn"t expose the shoes. The shoe organizer from ikea that you showed is nice, but only stores about 8-12 shoes and no knee high boots, so it is not practical. A small Billy with double doors would have stored at the minimum 12 shoes and with additional shelves over 40 shoes! Last tip: put one shoe facing front and the other one facing back to maximize shelf space. Love your channel and your energy, I get so many good organizing ideas, thank you!
Thank you for this tip. I have too many shoes, but I love and wear them all!
I love when you go to someone else's home and transform the space! Emily was thrilled.
I only discovered you today and I have already watched a couple of your videos. To cut a long story short I have been in my flat since June 2019, and have been in and out of work since then with a serious problem with my back. So not only am I physically limited the finances are tough too. This week I've had a bit of good news on the money front (only a couple of hundred pounds about $250) but the difference this has made to my mood (even though though the cheque hasn't arrived yet) is huge. There are lots of videos on You-tube helping with decluttering and that kind of thing - and many of them are excellent - but you have 'clicked' with me. I'm not a copy cat, my flat is totally different and much smaller, but you have made me think. In the matter of a couple of hours I have already thought of solutions to make living here SO much better and on a limited budget. Thank you so much. Sending best wishes from Oswestry in Shropshire, England. Good night (it is 11pm). xxx
So glad Joe joined in! It's nice to "meet" him!
I bet Joe was relieved when those cupboards fit without major modifications! Really enjoyed this video. I might even watch it twice.
Glad you enjoyed it!
My husband had a garage sale over the weekend. It may sound weird but I counted the items that left the garage. I was jumping for joy 175 items left.
That's amazing! Congrats!!
Way to go 👏
The whole trick about putting the key ring right in his face when he walks in. Just changed my entire organizing world and hopes solved some of my organizational problems.
We found out my grandfather had a child that he never knew about..after the shock from all the family members we embraced this new lady into our family. It wasn't her fault.
She is a super nice person. My grandparents had already passed and her mom had already passed on before any of this information was discovered.
Wow!
A few years ago we discovered my husband had a 50 year old son he didn't know about. Our regret is that we didn't know sooner. He and his wife and children are wonderful! So glad they are part of our family now🥰
We found a half-sibling a few years ago. Unfortunately, we're all middle-aged and our father and grandparents have already passed. Learning that this situation is more common than we thought!
When we got married,we moved into my husband's bachelor's flat which was about as big as this kitchen alone. Had to leave 80% of my possessions at my mom's house back home,and moved with 1 suitcase and my special pink embossed dinner plates😂 Thankfully we only lived their for 2 months,but our current place is pretty much the same size at theirs now. Organization is key!!We also have just adopted a doggy❤ This video helps so much as we also both work from home.
Oh Joe just melted my heart. Cass is so excited and Joe is so mild and when Cass asked if she could cheer him on he said yes I could use that. What a gorgeous couple you are. I hate building flat pack furniture. There is always some point where I am on the floor crying I can’t do this. So go Joe and go Cass !!!! ❤
Thanks!
Real house, real people, real jobs and I believe you did a great job. Excellent in all ways. ❤👍👍
Procrasticlutter... OMG! I love that ❤️
I think that might be one of Dana's words...?? Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.
@@MusedeMented I think you're right!
From my little French eyes, this place is big. You did a wonderful work ! Hope to see even small space so I can get some inspiration
Noted!
Yes, I’m from the Netherlands and this space is huge to me 😂
I was hoping to also see in the OFFICE CLOSET? No reveal of that?
I could feel the relief of opening up the space that I'm sure they were feeling. Good job helping their life be better on a daily basis.
My husband and I are both bees too! And we live in a SMALL house. This was so refreshing to see how you helped them!!
This was up there on one of the best I’ve seen. Thank you to Emily for allowing us to be a part of this too. I could definitely relate to this! Thank you Cas❣️
I don’t know what it is but your last video had me cleaning a cabinet and today I just cleaned out my snack station area. Something about you get me up and moving. I am going to binge watch your channel and get this house ready for a big party I’m prepping for. Thanks again. Enjoy the day.
LITERALLY LOL WHEN YOU SHOWED YOUR SLIPPERS! I LOVE YOUR REALATABILITY AND HONESTY ALWAYS!! ❤❤❤
I just want to say, I'm so glad we're seeing more of Joe on screen. He's no longer "behind the scenes Joe". Hello Joe, glad to finally get to know you! I wanted to see Josh's reaction.
My parents were police officers and taught me to never keep your keys by the door, always next to your bed! Someone coming into your home could walk away with them! Loved the rest! ❤
What a fantastic transformation! Storage is important. Hidden storage is what I like best.😊
For the record - Joe is adorable!
Cas, you hit this one out of the park! Thanks to Emily for offering her home and to Joe for the problem solving on the fly. I need one of the cabinets for my vacuum and cleaning supplies. A couple of the acrylic file organizers would work wonders solve a few issues in our office.
Loved this video! It was nice to see Emily onscreen for more than a quick view. The space looks fantastic! And I just love the way you and Joe interact! He is so cute and so willing to help you! It is refreshing to see! I am also very much into genealogy! I can't believe you have made your way back that far so quickly!! And those skeletons do not stay in the closet very long when you work your tree! Haha!
Love this !! Hope
To see more videos like this!! So helpful!!❤
I think this may be one of your best episodes ever!!! Excellent, excellent, excellent!!! God bless each of you!!!
Lucy is so well behaved, well done on her training. Love the way you talk about shifting and organizing. Wow what a difference.
I Heart Lucy! (My dog's name is also Lucy!) Your little Lucy is super sweet.
Dogs have so much stuff, don't they? but never declutter the puppy!! So cute!! I am amazed at what you were able to accomplish in a short time!! It takes an eye for it.
In a small home, armoires are lifesavers. They are tall, have lots of shelves and you can close the doors on it! I loved this client-she is so cool and open to suggestions. Her smile was everything! Hopefully Josh loved the makeover and he is happy too. What a beautiful home they have and an adorable puppy! This is one of my favorite videos on this channel. Warning to headphone/earbuds using viewers, loud, shrill volume at times -keep the column low or you'll blow out your ears!
I had to pause when you pointed out your slippers. We grew up on a farm in Wales so school was a couple of miles away by car. One day our Mother dropped us off and drove away. HORROR! I realised I was wearing my slippers, I was mortified, knowing that my fellow pupils would make fun of me (the entire school was a total of 22 pupils - four to eleven years) - being so small we all knew each other and siblings, parents etc. An entire parish would know that Gaynor had forgotten her shoes. By the end of the day they ALL believed it was a deliberate decision on my part. "I wanted to be comfy", I said!! Sorry for a long story. 😆🤣🤣
Fellow Louisianian? The word parish gave it away! 😊

I am definitely obsessed with family history. I don't give up til I learn more. I have found that you "get to know" ancestors and develop a sense of what an ancestor's personality was like. Talk to your oldest relatives NOW to learn more about ancestors. I wish I had asked my Grandma more questions. I have been researching for over 10 years.
This is why I haven't started family history... it sucks you in. Lol.
I really love your energy! Motivates me to immediately get started in some long forgotten corner or cabinet 🥰
I need a "Joe" to assemble my furniture! That shoe rack is amazing, so slim yet holds so many shoes!
I wish I had a friend like Cas, and a Joe of my own. Great video, Cas, Emily, Joe, and Lucy pup.
Thanks!
This ain't small space at all.... it's quite big ... and good job 👍🏻💝🇮🇳💝
All the Clutterbees bee 🐝 say Woo Hoo!! Love all the bright white bookcase/cabinets 😍😍
This was such a great video- so helpful to rethink my trouble spaces🤔. Emily is so sweet- thank you, Emily, for sharing your home!
I too have dropped down the ancestory hole!🙃😳😂😑😁😉 so much fun!!!
Wow!!! I would've never thought of rearranging a small space like this. Awesome!!! So different, yet same but much, much better. Good job!!!
Thank you for allowing to see your process. It was most helpful to me, especially when I heard in one of your TH-cam videos that you can do a room in a day with this process. I’m going to try your technique and I hope to be out of my cluttered situation soon, thanks to you and all of your wonderful tips and advice that you always offer us. You have no idea how much your help means to me and probably to so many others!
Researching ancestors is mind boggling. My niece did this and she found out so much. Amazing people, amazing times, great achievements we didn’t know about.
I loved the closets, Joe is a talented, smart guy and you two are so cute together. I am the one putting things together in my marriage and if there is a glitch I can never figure it out.😃
Thank you for this video.😘
You're welcome!
I think it is so funny when Cass is being super goofy and Joe is just so serious😆
There is balance in the universe!
That’s my husband and I. Lol I’m the goofy jokester one also ADHDer and he’s too serious he doesn’t get my goofiness.
Please do NY sized style apartments. I appreciate your small space video but this would be a very small space, more of a challenge.
Thank you. I would love you to do a video on tiny, tiny kitchen organization. My kitchen is about the size of their little entryway.
I have watched you for years and love your videos. This is one of your best :-) love seeing Joe in the videos as well. I remember when he was too shy to be on camera. This is great. I’ve learned so much from you being an organizer myself. Your categories helped me to understand peoples, organizing techniques more clearly.
Cas, your pink raincoat is so cheery and pretty.
Enjoyed this very much 😃 I also did Ancestry for hours until 2.00 in the morning a lot of nights during the pandemic....absolutely fascinating what I was able to find out through my mother’s side...I managed to get right the way back to the vikings through a super unexpected royal line. It was a real wow moment xx keep these vids coming xx
Thank you for showing us how to organize small spaces. It's greatly appreciated.
Love all the shelves!!! Love this cute makeover! Great job, ladies and Joe!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
THAT COAT IS SO CUTE!!! Ok, back to the video 😄
Yes I LOVE the color! Beautiful
You did a really great job with Emily's home! Love it! 😇
What an amazing and refreshing transformation and a shout out to Joe! What a great guy!!
I love it! Their home looks so cozy and well lived in now 🥰
I call the mess before it gets better, "the storm before the calm."
Yes!
💕Thank you Cass for this video! And thanks to Joe for his brain power and knowledge of woodworking and figuring things out with the shelving in the entry way! It has given me ideas for our little apartment. I have always heard of using the vertical space of your home especially if you do not have a lot of floor or storage/closet space. It is just the figuring out of what will work just right for that vertical space. In addition, our home is 80+ years old and I am hate putting holes into the walls as they are plaster and lattice-built walls. I need to pray to find just the right shelving with a built-in desk for my bedroom now that my brother has moved into the front office/guess/sunroom space. However, I would like to get a desk and shelving that could easily transition into that space if he moves out of that space or moves completely. And thank you Emily for sharing your homes transformation and sharing with us Lucy, so cute. Love it!💕
This is such an amazing transformation. Everything looks wonderful. So great to hear Emily describe the organization as ‘crazy pants’. Joe did a wonderful job as well. That was a lot of building cupboards, shelves and bookshelves.
Glad you like it!
GREAT transformation. It just looks so much more open.
As a fellow geek, I greatly appreciate all the wonderful geeky stuff in their house!!!
Fantastic vlog loved it really wish I could have this done in my home 💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍 this was great the finished result was amazing
I didn't realize that I still had my slippers on until I got to work. I had to call my husband to bring me my shoes!😂
Oh no!
I feel for you I've been there
One time I put my pants on inside out with seams showing, had a coworker ask if that was the case or I was following the fashion fad of outer seams....I said it was unplanned but just don't say anything....lol😂
When I was a teenager and worked at mcdonalds I wore two quite different shoes (one had a platform sole 😅) to a shift 😂😂
HA HA That’s funny 🤣😂😆 🥰 🐾
I love your organization video❤. Your research of family is hilarious 😂. Good luck. So refreshing.
I've been doing genealogy for 50 years and I'm never going to be done. The research for all the collateral people, friends and neighbors sometimes proves who the unknown parents are! Have fun. It's great to find the new relatives and learn their stories.
Thanks for sharing!
Cass you changed my life!! 💙💙💙 I am a Bee/Butterfly. 🐝🦋
I recommend you to all of my friends and family members and I also like to brag that you are a fellow Canadian!!! Love and thanks from the rest of us Canucks 🥰❤ 🇨🇦 🍁
Amazing transformation as usual! Thank you to Emily & Josh for letting us into your home ❤
Gorgeous! I need this for my apartment! Thanks for sharing.
I'm a genealogist and been researching since I was 12. It it is very very addicitve! In my research I found my Dads Half nieces and nephews in Scotland! And I found that my great grandfather from Nova Scotia, is one of 13! He told his daughter he was an only child. Oh and he had 6 children before coming to the US that we didn't know about!!
We need to find the documents, and realize that family lore is what people felt was ok to tell. There was such punishment for out of wedlock babies. Now we , or at least many of us, don't care about that .💗
I’ve been obsessed with researching my family since 2011! It has changed my life. For real. Now I go to Ireland every year to visit my newfound cousins!
Great job on Emily's place, what a difference. Would like to see Josh's reaction too though.
So awesome! The mama is so cute!
I’m finding that unknown siblings from a generation or two back is quite common. My father was raised as an only child but found out when he was 68 that he had 3 brothers!
I've done a lot of ancestry research and have been doing it for about 30 years!!! It is ADDICTIVE!!
this was the best make over. you two did wonderful job. like the shelving verticle space use. closet hanging the brooms and vaccume . Joe you are amazing love how helpful and kind you are
Your hubby is so cute, Cass. He seems so meek & gentle. A perfect compliment to your energy.
That is an amazing transformation in each area. Thanks for sharing your home Emily, it’s beautiful. Yer dog is so cute. I’d to laugh when Joe said is this the last thing before the last thing 🤭😂🤣 Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 👏👏👏💪👍🙏💐🐶
It was so nice!!! I wanted to see the closet on the office. I'm too obsesed with my ansestry. ❤
You and I have a very different idea of what a “small space” looks like. That kitchen is 2x bigger than mine haha. Possibly more…
Would love to see your ideas for even smaller spaces
You and Joe are so great together!🎉❤
Thank you!
Hahaha! I saw the Maize and Blue accents tucked in everywhere! Shout out to these Michigan Wolverines! 😁
Thanks Emily for sharing your home. Fun to see you on the other side of the camera! I have a small home also. And one closet for main area and one bedroom closet. And a tiny bathroom closet.
Love the look from Joe when you said last thing and handed him the shelf❤
I love this video. I am trying to decluter from years of my husband and myself as well as my now grown children who have moved out. But I now have grandchildren who live with me. I am so overwhelmed. I am just taking one box at a time . But there are days I feel like I am just not getting anywhere.
I love this, thank you so much for posting this!! It’s my first time seeing your how to post video. I have a room that I need organizing big time. Its my Computer, Crafting, and Sewing room. All in a good size room. The bad thing is that I am 70 years old and I have what they call crippling arthritis. It’s just hard for me to lift and move on a lot of things. I have no help since my husband passed away.
Thank You. 🥰 🐾
Emily is delightful! I love the transformation!! But also, super love your blouse, Cas, and where on earth do you come up with phrases like "cuckoo banana pants" and "holy doodle magical" ???! 😂😂😂 Joe is a keeper! Great job, one and all!!
This is the type of video I adore! Practical, reasonable ways to straighten a cluttered space and you guys did it! Thanks!
I'm glad you liked it!
Well done with the reorganizing and giving them better visual storage. It looked pretty cluttery. The minimalist in me wants them to get rid of a lot of their stuff, but organizing things helps as long as they can keep up with the organization!
Congratulations on your secret aunt/uncle that you now have. I hope you guys have been okay with that. I took a DNA test to see if I could find my dad's father's side, as we never knew who his father was (his mom took it to her grave), but we found his family about four and a half years ago now and it has been great (I live a street away from one of my "new" aunts). You guys really do have a lot of "skeletons" in your family's closets. I am thankful I have been able to find a big portion of my family tree that I had never known before. I can trace my mom's family back to the 900s.
What DNA source(s) and ancestry sources have you found most helpful
@@sydmckenzie788 I feel Ancestry is good for learning your tree and 23 and Me is good for your health, genetics, and ethnic background being more precise. I have both. There are others our there too like My Heritage.
This is ace, so nice to see a space I can relate to, it looks amazing!
