I turned 65 in December and retired. Now, I’m going through my house, room by room, closet by closet, and drawer by drawer to downsize and organize so I can simplify my life and travel. This was a great video. I love to organize!
Good for you Petra… it feels good doesn’t it 🙌🏻💪🏻👍🏻 RR
As soon as i turn 65 im doing swedish death cleaning or whatever its called so im not a burden when i pass
I'm 68 and doing the same.
Ditto! I don’t want my children to have to deal with my stuff😊
We have the same idea 😊
Now it's not a Junk Drawer anymore, Rebecca: It's a Utility Drawer! It got promoted!👍
Was coming here to comment this. 😂
Secret to drying pillows is to use tennis balls in the dryer to fluff them up. Also, I agreed that vinegar and baking soda are a must to add to your laundry plus laundry detergent.
I was going to say the same thing. Also with down jackets.
I use 8 laundry wool balls from New Zealand. No static cling on any clothes, no wrinkles, and no film on the towels that Bounce leaves. Reusable, you lose one to a pj drawer once in awhile lol which is why I need 8. And of course they work great for the pillows!! 😀
Thanks for the tip 👍🏻
That was great! Very motivational! Thanks! 😊
I would love to see your remodel of your laundry room. Many of us have one that is starkly functional like yours and need inspiration !
Oml yes!
Surprised to see it wasn't a beautiful space like the rest of her home. Looks like mine - Functional
Yes a laundry room remodel would be super!
I was suprised to see your laundry machines are not installed properly, I guess someone else takes care of your clothes. And that’s ok because everything else you touch is fabulous and look magical. So it means your a normal person with an extra positive attitude, I thank you for that. I like watching your makeover room and especially your Christmas decoration. It makes me feel good and dream a lot.
Love it! You are a "real" person in addition to my favorite designer of all time. Thanks for the human touches that are so helpful. Yes, more please!
Omg!!! Rebecca, I thought you were a neat freak! After seeing your storage, I’m feeling normal:) thanks!
Great inspiring video! Thanks for taking us along 😊.
We've always washed down...pillows, jackets, sleeping bags,,,wash temp usually determined by color. I would always use hot for white and kill germs. Try throwing tennis balls, wool balls, even a clean tennis shoe, in the dryer to break up the feathers.
Spring cleaning is always so much fun when someone else is doing it hehe
Thank you for sharing all of your tips for a more organized home.
Ramon
OMG I just love love love that you decorate your storage closet. Of course we are so special that we deserve to see the beauty in everything we do.
Rebecca, I would love to see you remodel your laundry room!
Yes!
Yes!!!
Yessssssssss!!! We al need the inspo !!!
I wash my down pillows frequently and dry them with tennis balls, works great to re-fluff.
Get yourself a battery box organizer! They’re fabulous. You know just what you have and where they are!!
Laundry ProTip: Use White Vinegar and Baking Soda instead of toxic chemicals that also come with massive plastic waste. The active ingredient in OxyClean is Baking Soda. Put the baking soda in the powder container, and the vinegar in the softener. Your clothes will be cleaned better than ever and the washer is also clean. You can use this process for stains, put on the vinegar shake BS over the top it bubbles and cleans the stains, cooktops, bathtub, anything!
Thanks for the tips Kimberly! Such great advice Thank You! RR
Thanks for sharing. .Will definetly try it.
Have a Blessed Easter
Omg...
I have one of those too.
I have 10 scissors ✂️
A box of Boraxo works great too!
THANK YOU for showing a real junk drawer! But 13 scissors - hilarious. I love the way your pantry closet ended up and the drawer is great.
I now need those lutron shades!
In your utility pantry, I might suggest putting those heavy kitchen appliances at counter top level so they are easier to move. After someone I knew broke their jaw when a large peanut butter fell on them in their pantry, I also put only light weight items on higher shelves.
Take care!
Organization is everything, Makes your life less stressful. A place for everything, and everything in it's place.
Hi Rebecca. if you want to make your pillows airy again, use a few tennis balls when drying. Your pillows will be soft again . Greetings from the Netherlands
Absolutely love todays video and how you’re featuring some of the more mundane aspects of keeping a home looking good. You always make it fun and inspiring!
Fab vlog Rebecca! You took the words out of my mouth when you said ‘what a productive day!’ How satisfying to tackle those jobs we all put off doing especially the junk drawer! Love the organising tips ❤
Well, I think you could not only be a professional interior designer but also a professional organizer! LOL! Couldn't believe how much your junk drawer look like mine! Great job on that closet especially! Looks wonderful!
Rebecca! Use that Folex carpet cleaner on your fabrics! Great spot remover and it doesn't have any bad stuff! I learned this from a surgeon who uses it on his scrubs.
Yes, I have never dry cleaned any of my feather pillows or feather comforters! Always have taken them to the laundermat and low heat dry in the tumble dryer. My thought years ago....ummmm...ducks live in the water, I think it will be alright!! HUGE SAVINGS and always clean!!!
Thanks for the inspiration. I find an organized space so calming.
Hi Rebecca,
I thoroughly enjoyed this. The way you organise and style is aligned to the way you design: aesthetically beautiful and functional.
My favorite pillow was a feather pillow, I used it until it was as flat as a pancake! I read that if you can fold your pillow in half it’s time to toss it, well I folded it in half, then fourths, and then eights! My heart broke as I threw it out. And for the first time for as long as I can remember, I have no junk drawer! 🤗
Wow. Great job. That laundry room needs some love.😂😂😂😂
FYI you should never use laundry soap to wash down. Soap will strip the oils from the down. There are special cleaners you use to clean them and help keep the down fluffy. If you have stains on the fabric spray well with peroxide. Then use a small strainer to sprinkle baking soda; rub into the peroxide to make a paste, if necessary stry more peroxide, and let dry overnight. Hope that helps! I live what you do!
First I want to say you have a beautiful singing voice. My junk drawers look like your finished project and my husband thinks that’s messy! He also steams our pillows every week…sanitizes them.
Ok Rebecca, you inspired me, I cleaned out my 2 junk drawers in the kitchen! Thanks.
👏👏👏 that's terrific!
Your closet 'after ' is beautiful , elegant and functional! Love it! A suggestion for the pillow wash, especially with biological stains - use liquid Oxyclean. Everything (but rust) comes out! Other enzyme-based products marketed for pet stains work well, too. Thank you for your channel and your elegant but down to earth content! ❤
Pillows- I wash every 2 weeks. Bedroom pillow I replace every year and decorative every couple of years.
You accomplish so much, wish I had a touch of your energy ❣️
For safety’s sake, store the heavy mixer and anything else heavy onto the waist level shelf to preserve your back and head!
Time for champagne 🍾🥂
I’ve never seen so many scissors in one spot! Great video!
I love that your laundry has a very industrial vibe. Lol. It’s awesome that you have an older washer and dryer. Very humbling. It’s functional and that’s all you need. 👍🏻
I use a tip you shared when you helped decorate your son's condo a few years ago. I have a decorative box on a shelf on a coat rack near my door that has small tools like a screwdriver, measuring tape, box cutters, etc. I do have a toolbox I keep elsewhere, but for the small repairs, I can quickly find most items I need there. TY.
That article is true! There's many about microscopic bugs and dead skin cells in our pillows and beds. I only use the "My Pillow"brand, and I wash it every month. I buy a new one every yr.
I buy new pillows for my bed at the end of every summer; I also change my pillow cases every 3 days.
If you put covers and protectors on your down pillows you won’t have to wash the actual pillows.(couch pillows)
I think all junk drawers are a love and hate relationship 😆
Truly Nancy !!! :-) RR
Love it! I need to start all my kitchen drawers. Dryer tip…. I put tennis balls in the dryer with pillows to help fluff them back out.
I did the same to my Junk Drawer a few years ago and it's still working.
I have renamed it The Useful Drawer!
Fun video. How about a laundry room make-over some time soon ;) ?
Great video, I love the way you change from one project to the other, keeps me engaged! Can't wait for more! declutter
I have a junk drawer. Oh yes! I love this declutter! More please!
YES! You’ve inspired me to clean my junk drawer and get the organizers. It’s incredible how much stuff accumulates in there🤦🏻♀️. Love your end results!!
I agree on the Betty Crocker scissors! Threw mine out! Fiskars are the best!
You are a scream!! 💜 I love your energy 💜
I love these type of advices, pls teach us more. Thanks! And many commentators have many tips to add. Perfect way to learn.
I'm loving watching you organize pencils, and then I start wondering about my sanity. However, when you started designing your storage area. I knew, you complete me! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
A great reality video. Thank you!
I wash all our sofa and bed pillows in the washer, no matter what the filling is, then I put them in the dryer with a couple of tennis balls. The tennis balls in there can be pretty loud but the pillows come out good as new.
Omg I’m not only in love with your decor home now I’m in love with the ORGANIZATION on every closet and drawer. Wow!!! I’m organizing my apartment TODAY! So inspired by my favorite designer Becky!!!
I spent 3 hours on one massive junk drawer at my in-laws house. They’ve been in the house for 20+ years. I’d say it was yours times two. We even found stuff from the 90’s. But I got it down to nothing but essentials.
Good for you... kind of therapeutic don't you think!? :-) RR
@@rebeccarobeson1 Heck ya!
when adding down or feathers pillows or duvets to the dryer use dryer balls they help keep the down from clumping
I just can’t believe your laundry room please get it updated 😂😂😂🥰🥰
So you're normal Rebecca. Just like all of us. Love it
What an awesome video! I loved watching and never lost interest! Thank you for all the fantastic tips and ideas, Rebecca ❤
I love what you have achieved, Rebecca.
It's a lovely feeling being organised and looks gorgeous. 😍
I just cleaned out my junk drawer two days ago! I can’t stop opening it just to look at how organized and pretty it is! Your pantry closet looks great, the baskets and brass-so beautiful-I think I’m going to emulate the look in my linen closet.
Oh!! That’s the closet I’ve been waiting to see how you fix it!!!
When you first moved into your house and you gave us a tour of it and you said you had big plans for that closet.
I Love Your Channel! Your Sense of REALNESS (is that a Word?) combined with your Sense of Humor is really a Fun Way to Approach Alot of Things in Life! Rmbr "Martha Stewart" started out with similar subjects, but we have so much more Available to Us Now! By watching your useful suggestions & your Fun Style, I'm Inspired! Thanks! 🌷😃🌷
I'm 73 & have just recovered from a 2 1/2 yr illness! (during that time we had a water leak & had a Construction Crew in here off & on for about 8mos!) After we redecorated, once the Construction was done & I continued to recover from my illness, I became aware that I needed a "Sense of Purpose" in Life! Since our Sons & their Families are in another State & my Husband & I can only take so many Limited Mobility walks on the River Walk or Nat Forest, I've gotten into the Home Organization/"Swedish Death Cleaning"! I am going thru Every Room, Bathroom & Closet in my House & Trashing, Selling, Donating all of the Things we once thought we "Needed" or Wanted to Keep! Including LOTS of Clothes,(I'm 63lbs smaller, too) Jewelry & Shoes went with the Clothes! There is ALOT! (we've lived here 22yrs) I'm making use of Amazon to get all my Pretty Containers! Since we're not Traveling right now, we're using that Money to Purchase the Right & Serviceable Items that we Need for Today's Needs & Life Style! Every Month I'm purchasing the Well Planned Out Items I need for the Projects we'll do for the Month! My Husband is Inspired! Our Oldest Son purchased a Nice Sized Shed for us for Christmas & helped to put it Together for us, so Hubby is out there Sawing & Making Shelves & Work Bench for the Inside! Then he'll clean out our Garage! It's Contagious! 🤭🤭🥰
Love this video! I love everything that you recommend and your ideas align with what I would do or would like to do. I have never seen this in any other how to videos that I have watched on TH-cam. Your the best!
Love you! Thank you! Just the inspiration and motivation needed to kick start my spring cleaning.
We store all our batteries in a clear “fishing” tackle box. It works. Sits on a shelf in my laundry room.
Love BASKETS ! So great for organizing !
Dear Rebecca i didnt check if someone in the comments section mentioned it but if you wash feathers pillows put to tumble dryer 3 tennis balls. It will help to spreed the feathers evenly. Love your work and sending regards from Poland❤❤❤
Good video! Can’t wait to be home after this mess of the tornado to organize and clean my home too!
I keep a set of clean tennis balls in my laundry room just to fluff pillows. Sunlight is the best sanitizer for feathers and/or down. Spread out your comforter or pillows and leave them in the sun for a couple hours.
Lol😅, funny. The junk drawer 😂. Tip- store markers standing up with tip down. Flow of ink works better.
Rebecca,
I once saw in the newspaper that daughter Heloise said if you have a ring around the collar to use shampoo. The reasoning is it cuts body oils. That might be worth a try. A spray bottle with shampoo, enough water to allow her to spray.
When I need to use it, I just wet the item and scrub shampoo into it.
I've been washing my feather pillows for years. When possible, I dry them on the deck in the sun to help brighten and kill bacteria. Then finish by fluffing for a little while in the dryer to be sure it's dry and comfy.
I really enjoyed this video. It showed a homemaker in a famous interior designer doing the typical housekeeping chore. Well done Rebecca 👍
oh my gosh, who knew! thanks so much!
Down to earth, that's what you are Rebecca. Enjoyed this video. Thanks for keeping it real.
When you were making the totes for your items - hammers, hangers, ties- I was thinking…”and then I took the tote out and it got tipped over and everything spilled everywhere. Or, I took it with me in the car and then it tipped over on the floor and everything spilled out. “
So I would make my totes ( assuming they need to be portable) in zip top or Velcro topped totes .
Also, I have a duck down feather pillow, covered in heavy tickung. It was made from feathers from ducks my grandfather hunted in the 1920’s. I washed and dried it and it is lovely.
I would love a video going over everything you have connected to an Alexa and how you did it. When your battery operated shades worked I thought you must be a magician!
Great job, as always, Rebecca! Very inspiring/motivating for spring cleaning season.
Also, I feel like an interior design pro now that I know what the electrical innards of a Lutron automatic shade look like. Fascinating! Lol
And side note, the Pentel Energels are my favorite pens too!
Yes, I wash our sleeping pillows every 3 months or so and once a year the throw pillows that we actually rest on. I use Borax in my wash, it’s a natural deodorizer along with baking soda and vinegar in the rinse. The pillows come out very clean and fresh smelling. My mom would partially dry them in the dryer and then hang them up on the wash line. I still remember the smell. 😁
Thank you 😊 as you were doing that yes I was doing my billy book shelf transferring books 💃🤸
For a quicker drying get the “tennis balls” they come in three you put them in the dryer with the pillow they will fluff it as it dries . They are originally used for drying winter coats they contain feathers . Only a Canadian knows what I am talking about
Yea I’m Canadian so I know what you’re talking about lol. Cheers from Kelowna
Thank you, some great ideas
I think you have successfully motivated me to organize my kitchen drawers! It’s just the getting stared part that’s the hardest. New year, new motivation. Love your videos!
Thanks for being so real.
FROM ONE ORGANIZER TO ANOTHER, YOU GET A 10 THAT WAS FUN
It does look amazing!
Absolutely love this video.
p.s. ABOUT THE PILLOWS: for the first 30 minutes, put some dryer balls in with the pillow. The kind with the little "spikes" on them is best. Then after 30 minutes, take out the pillow and fluff/redistribute the feathers. Then do another 15 minutes and then fluff again. Then do a last 30 minutes (or however long you still need) but DO NOT use dryer balls, just let it fluff itself in the dryer. Should come out good as new! I have a down QUILT, and it just takes time and patience to get everything re-fluffed up again, that's all! 😁👍
What do you do when your down comforter is too big for dryer?
I draped mine outside over the patio table and chairs. The sun will whiten places the washing machine didn't. Refluff and turn over from time to time. @@szee8588
Love all you do!
I don't have a kitchen closet, so I maximized my cabinet space by putting inside my cabinets wire shelves where I can stack things. Your closet looks great!
Absolutely loved this video! ❤
This video is so spot on. Who doesn't have that drawer or closet that we hope that no one but ourself ever sees? I have been going through cabinets and drawers and this video gave me that extra spark of inspiration to get the job completed. Yes please, a bedroom organizing video will be fabulous and I can't wait to see what you do there!
Those fly chasers absolutely work!
I call it my utility drawer and I put what I use often then, I have a container I put extra stuff in, and if it clutters up I weed it out into the extra container. Works for me!
Thank you for the motivation. Love the down to earth visit.
I had a junk drawer but now I have two junk jars. Large Mason jars I can see through them and everything in it. I keep them in the bottom cupboard and it gave me a whole other large drawer to organize my kitchen tools in.
Wash my down comforter when you put it in the dryer put your somewhat clean tennis shoes or some new tennis balls into a clean white sock, zip it closed, at least two shoes and they will beat up, move around the feathers (inside) to dry easier (and shorter time) and plump up the pillow or comforter Learned that a long time ago hope it helps someone! Oh my got to edit here! My electrician told me NOT TO USE extension cords but to get a good STRIP with multiple plugs because they will stop any fire and TRIP to stop the electricity. Another tip, because I know please do not ask! :) ha ha Edit duck tape all tapes fit nicely on a paper towel holder you know the one with the pole in the center! Love mine less room!
Thanks for being wonderful you. So much fun learning from you...
Everything turned out great! ❤❤❤
I did learn years ago when I use to take my down comforter to the dry cleaners that it could be washed and yes it does take a long time to dry. Love this! Thank you 👏❤️
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 BAR NONE, my favorite thing I’ve heard you say in awhile, “I think it’s quite impressive that I was able to fit THAT much stuff in this drawer”. BWAHAHA! GIRL! You and I are so much alike!!! 🤣🤣 Love your videos. Can’t wait to meet you one day. I need some HELP in this house! Ha!
You inspired me to keep things orderly and neat!
Thank you for showing your real life messy spots , helps to know I'm not the only one who collects paper bags and drawer clutter 😂
I love this so much!! So much motivation and super satisfying. Thank you! ❤️
Love the Positivity & Inspiration
