Everything looks beautiful, wow!! And I'm really enjoying your "counter-clockwise" method, it makes great sense to me! I'm heading into my crafts room soon to try it out! 😊
I've completed one wall of cubbies and have two of the big outdoor trash bags full of stuff I thought I'd use "someday" - ha! I eliminated 5 11x11 cubbies full of stuff. My trash bag for actual trash is getting full. I'm cleaning as I go, counter- clockwise, and will eventually re-arrange the entire room. I have half the room left to go, including my closet. Thank you so much, Cory.... I'll never deep clean a room any other way 😊
I didn't think I would be interested in a cleaning and decluttering video but I was !! I think it's your voice that makes it calm and interesting ! Thanks !! P.S. I love the mantel and beams
Cory, amazing, I like how u said to put like things together when decluttering and then take them to where they belong. Ur living room looks so nice. U did good. 😊
You are amazing! Cleaning, painting, caulking, washing!!!! Dang girl you literally did it all 💕💕💕and also you inspired me to do lots of jobs today. Keep it going your the best ❤️
Never put polish Ona TV SCREEN you can buy the correct spray for TV Computer’s iPads etc polish will damage your screen also do NOT use window cleaner or a damp cloth
Haha yes. He has become my shadow now that he does not have anyone to play with. It's been really nice having him wanting to hang out with me more. Before he was very independent, more like a cat than a dog haha but now he asks me to play with him several times a day 😄
I really like this idea of cleaning by area. My problem is that, when I set about to clean a room, I will start with one thing, get pulled into another cleaning task (often migrating into another room), and have to go back to the first cleaning task, which -- after all the other cleaning that I got pulled into -- then seems monumental and overwhelming. I'm going to try this method and see how it goes. Thank you! ETA: Here's a visual motivator ... watching you throw stuff! I just find that very satisfying.
@@coryshome OK, I'm sold on the cleaning by area strategy. I made a huge dent in a rearranging/reorganizing project in my dining area. I just focused on that one area, and worked on what I had in front of me. It's not completely done yet (I had to go to work), but I'm going to finish it today (my day off). It's amazing how, when I tackle one thing, I get that wow!-I-can-do-this feeling; I don't feel so overwhelmed, and then I am better able to get other stuff done. Thank you!
I like it when it has tons of storage cabinets in the living room, yet the color is way too dark with the brown color sofa. I would suggest adding the sliding door for it instead of the “regular door” Love your channel and it is such a fresh start for 2025. 🎉
Vinegar and water in a spray bottle is all you need for regular cleaning and floors. Jude’s Miracle Cloth is amazing for all glass, all you do is soak it in water and ring it out and happy cleaning. Great video.
It was so great to watch your new video! I too am preparing for an operation (hernia repair) and I am so stressed out. I clean, declutter, and organize all the time, and will until my operation next week. I feel awful, but to do these things truly helps.
You got this! Keeping busy helps keep your mind from worrying. I am in the recovery room after my surgery right now as I type this and thankfully everything went well. Hospitals are so advanced compared to the last time I had surgery and I hope you find that comforting to know that. Everything is so thorough now. You will do great in your surgery.
When buying a house, always ask the sellers to pay for the fireplace inspection because usually, especially in older homes, the inspector will find repairs that are needed. Or pay for your own inspection during your under contract period and then ask the sellers to pay for the repairs.
So enjoyable! Appreciate the suggestions and learning about your Early Education background.... So many good tips, explanations and possible solutions. Impressed by your organizational skills and creativity: hope to do more of this in my own home. Thank you for sharing! new subscriber tonight
I just bought a clorox mop that lets you put whatever you want in it to clean. You can use natural stuff, too. I dont like the ready-made stuff, I feel it makes floor kind of sticky.
Enjoyed this video. Sorry that things haven’t been good for you lately but glad to see you putting out videos again. Wishing you good luck on your goals. Just don’t work yourself too hard. Loved the tip about counter-clockwise cleaning.
We do online school with 3 of my children. For my son it is mostly homeschool since he is doing kindergarten online (he has an online teacher but it's mostly me doing the teaching) but my older 2 are in middle and highschool and they do it mostly independently now since we have been doing it for so long. My middle schooler is a year ahead now. Hoping to have all my kids graduate high school at least a year early. Not all online schools are good. But some are great!
loved this and i love hearing you talk about stuff, i can just so relate!. i dont have any pillows, they just get thrown on the floor and not used, even though i love the look of pillows, they are not worth the stress to me to have any. hahah. and yes, we had mice in our house one year, and after that, I do all my organizing and cleaning based around if we ever have mice again! so i totally get you organizing and doing things around bugs.
New subscriber I like your shelving unit u have that is nice. I really like color ur painting ur mantel that will make it blend out more nice color happy new year to u n ur family
I like it on the mantle because it looks so good with the bricks. The beams might look better the colour of the built in dark wood nice contrast to the ceiling. Hard to tell how the mantle colour looks on them
Everything is so pretty! You’ve chosen colors that I like and have in my house. I vacuum our fireplace hearth too. lol much easier!! I really enjoyed the video, Cory. Happy New Year to you and yours. 🙏May God bless you and your family in 2025.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Happy New Year to you and your family too! I feel like people are missing out on all the ways we can use our vacuums to make things easier haha.
Just found your channel and love already. Great motivation! I have the Bissell little green machine and as I was looking into other things I found that they had a newer replacement head..its a little bigger AND that plastic piece comes off for easier cleaning. So it's on my list to buy and try (think it's 17)...worth the money to try before buying a whole new machine😂😂. Cause the cleaning that part is currently my online grip with it so far😬
Maybe try putting large book or pictures at the back of shelves to with the black vold Flate baskets work well to Then layer smaller things in front. Balance is very important blue on one side bule on other side hope this helps you.
Great great job!! For ur closet w out a door…have u considered a bifold door? So there’s not too many large doors in a small area? Or a tension curtain rod & curtain? I think the ceiling beams would look really nice if it matched the darker wall & paneling 👍🏻
You should look into the company branch basics. I just recently bought their products because they’re supposed to be a lot cleaner than things like Windex, etc..
I’m going to try your cleaning method. I feel like I have so much to do that I poop out before I get it done & at times I have too many things going but don’t get it all done. I’m sure I’m not the only one! 😂
Looks very nice. I love the traditional style. I do wonder how the two tall shelves would look spaced out instead of pushed together. I think it might look less heavy?
I have seen people do that and it works really well. You just build a wood top onto them. We don't need dog crates anymore, our dog roams freely. He's 14 and well behaved.
Hi Cory! I have ADHD and I absolutely have to clean that way or I get overwhelmed and end up not completing the room. Section by section is the only way I can do it 🤷🏽♀️ Btw, I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos! Thank you for sharing!
Hi my name is vicky im a new subscriber, i hooe you are well. Im watching from england Your living room looks amazing a really great video take care ❤ vicky xx
It is the regular shark plug in model. I get it when it's on sale at costco because they have an excellent return policy and I can return it if I have any issues with it in the future. It's usually around $150-190 and works better than the $400 brands/models
I finished your other video so im finally here now in ur newer one looking forward for more videos can i ask where did u get your side table beside your couches the one with the power outlet or usb plug in on it thankyou❤
Yay I'm so glad you're enjoying the new videos. They are "ashley" brand in the line called bolanberg. They also have a line called raelyn that is similar. You can get them on Amazon sometimes but most local furniture stores will carry them or can order them for you. See if they will price match then to whoever is selling it cheapest. That is what we did.
Yes, I am in houston and have 2 home decor booths that I sell out of. It is inside a painted tree boutique at 1153 kingwood drive 77339. Booths m4 and m8
I’m so happy you are doing this channel along with your other one, thank you! Beautiful home

Ok I will keep that in mind
I love how interested and happy Nino is during your declutter/ cleaning/organize/ and finish up Reno video❤
Haha yes. He has become my shadow now that he does not have anyone to play with. It's been really nice having him wanting to hang out with me more. Before he was very independent, more like a cat than a dog haha but now he asks me to play with him several times a day 😄
Love this! You turned chaos into calm so effortlessly, Cory. 😄
I’m so glad you liked it! It was definitely a chaotic day but I’m happy with how it turned out!

Hi Cory!! Good job!!❤ What about putting up a curtain instead of a door in the school closet. Something with a neutral color but a nice print.
Great idea!!
This room looks amazing now! Good job! I clean that way too. I’m adhd so if I clean the traditional way I get overwhelmed and lose focus.
It can be so hard to stay focused sometimes, I understand! Adhd can be a super power if you figure out how to harness that power lol.
Love the color of the mantle. It brightens up the fireplace and you have motivated me to declutter. I, too, clean one section/room at a time
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you like it! Please let me know how your decluttering goes
@coryshome will do 😉 starting in the kitchen
I'm not sure if I watch you're channel before, but I enjoyed your video!!😊
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

Interesting cleaning method! And what a beautiful room! It’s just lovely! ❤
Thanks, I'm happy you liked the room!
Love the color of the walls! Everything looks fabulous!
Thanks so much! 😊
Sometimes I will put up a tension rod and a pretty curtain to use as a "door".
Good idea!

Thank you so very much! I am trying to force myself to not over do it lol.
Maybe bifold or a style like that for the homeschool closet door so you don’t have a swing door in that space. Nice video!
That’s a great idea, I will definitely look into that!
I love the way you got the mantal with flowers mirror
I'm so glad you like it! Can't wait to finish decorating it!
Your counter clockwise method is exactly what I do! I love it! You can see progress as you go!
Yes! Thank you! Seeing the progress keeps you motivated
So excited that you're starting up this channel and being active here! I love this kind of content for while I'm doing stuff in my own house :)
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoy it, I'm really having fun making this content.

You could put up a tension rod and a neutral curtain instead of a door, or a pocket door maybe???
Good idea
Great content cory! Thank you for sharing 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
New subscriber I like your shelving unit u have that is nice. I really like color ur painting ur mantel that will make it blend out more nice color happy new year to u n ur family
Thanks so much! So happy to have you here!
I really like the method of cleaning that you use. I'm going to give it a try, thank you ☺️
I'm happy to help! Let me know how it goes!
As soon as I saw the homeschooling room, I imagined having an office chair there and using the bottom shelf as a desk.
Hey Cory! Happy Nee Year! I’m very sorry to hear about your dog 🙏🏽 However, I’m excited for some cleaning 🧼 motivation!!!! 🧽🧹🧼🧺🏠🎆
Thank you. Happy New Year to you too! I hope you enjoy the cleaning motivation!
I love cleaning in a counter clockwise direction. I didn't realize it was weird! 😁
It makes sense to me! It's all about what works best for you!
I’m really enjoying this channel. Great job on the decluttering.
Yay! Thank you! I'm so glad you are liking it!!!
Or the cast-iron look, I forgot what paint you said that was not pitch black
I clean my house with the same method as you. I finish one area before moving to the next. So it’s DONE by the time I move to the next
Yes! It makes so much more sense this way. Otherwise I'd get distracted and have zero finished spaces
I like it on the mantle because it looks so good with the bricks. The beams might look better the colour of the built in dark wood nice contrast to the ceiling. Hard to tell how the mantle colour looks on them
Good idea about doing the color of the walls on the beams. I'm considering that
Curtain for the closet? Even a sheer one would work and can be shoved aside and take hardly any space
Love your flooring!
Thank you! It's wood tile from floor and decor
Well done good sort out/ clean 😊😊
Thanks! 😊
Its very ambitious great work
Thanks, I'm glad you think so!
Lovely living room. I like what you did with it. BTW, just subscribed to this channel. More things to watch you do.
Thanks so much for subscribing! I'm so glad you liked the living room and the new videos!!!
Some pictures on the wall. Rest is beautfiul. ❤
Good idea! Thank you
I would paint the mantle, black and the beams. You do have a light floor. I think it will look cool and cohesive.
I think that would be nice but my ceilings are low so I think it would make it appear to stand out too much
@ makes sense
You did an amazing job! And I love the color on mantle and the beams!
Thank you so much! I'm really happy with how it turned out!
Ok you helped me yesterday with your bedroom so I’m hoping for more Inspo today 👍🏻
I am so glad to hear that! I'm currently editing another new video that will be going live tomorrow morning
@ great because I just got started and I need to keep going with you 🙌🙌🙌
Everything looks great❤❤❤
Thank you! 🤗

Really liked this video well done. Excellent 😊😊😊
Thank you so much 😀
Hi new subscriber love cleaning videos im doing my Christmas take down and cleaning to.
Thanks! I hope it's motivating!
That’s good idea for the lamps
Thank you
Good Job! Outstanding! ❤

Thanks! I am so glad you think so.
You should look into the company branch basics. I just recently bought their products because they’re supposed to be a lot cleaner than things like Windex, etc..
I will have to check them out! I’m always looking for new products that are more environmentally friendly and non toxic
Hello you could put a Constantine door up they. Just pull across so easy to fit,love your videos thank you ❤uk😊
Great idea! Thank you!
I’m going to try your cleaning method. I feel like I have so much to do that I poop out before I get it done & at times I have too many things going but don’t get it all done. I’m sure I’m not the only one! 😂
I understand! Sometimes it feels impossible to get it all done. But with a plan it can work!
Wow! Amazing job!
Glad you like it! Thank you
Looks very nice. I love the traditional style. I do wonder how the two tall shelves would look spaced out instead of pushed together. I think it might look less heavy?
I’ll have to think about that, thanks for the tip!
Loved this video. Motivating
Thank you! I'm so glad it was motivating for you.
Looks great!
Thank you so much!
What about putting the dog crates under your tv as the tv stand?
I have seen people do that and it works really well. You just build a wood top onto them. We don't need dog crates anymore, our dog roams freely. He's 14 and well behaved.
Loved this video ❤
Glad you liked it!! Thank you
Please make more Videos 🥰🙏 Jasmin 💜
I sure will 😀
Well done motivational
I'm glad you found it motivating!
Hey Hey from Maine! Thank you for the motivation! What about a curtain on the Homeschool room?
Great idea!! I will show that during this series where I go through and declutter/organize my whole house!
@@coryshome Awesome!! Can't wait to see!! :-) Glad you deciphered Current lol
Also save that little roller it may come in handy 🤣🤣🤣
I clean the same way as you do.
How cool!
Hi Cory! I have ADHD and I absolutely have to clean that way or I get overwhelmed and end up not completing the room.
Section by section is the only way I can do it 🤷🏽♀️
Btw, I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos! Thank you for sharing!
I completely understand! It's the best way to keep your sanity lol thank you so much. I'm so glad you're enjoying it
Beautiful!
Thanks so much!
What about saloon doors or something like that for that closet?
That is what was there originally
Hi my name is vicky im a new subscriber, i hooe you are well. Im watching from england Your living room looks amazing a really great video take care ❤ vicky xx
Thank you so much Vicky! I'm so glad to have you here

Very motivating
Thanks so much, I'm glad it was!
Corey please tell me what vacuum that is?!?!? It looks amazing. TIA❤ Great work by the way. Your LV is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
It is the regular shark plug in model. I get it when it's on sale at costco because they have an excellent return policy and I can return it if I have any issues with it in the future. It's usually around $150-190 and works better than the $400 brands/models
Thank you so much!
@ thank you! 😊 I’ll be in the lookout!
Looks good everything
Thank you
Your fireplace colors are the same palette of my young kitten: brown & champagne
Sounds beautiful!
I have those same end tables 😁
Great minds think alike! They are so convenient too, with the plug ins they have and storage
I finished your other video so im finally here now in ur newer one looking forward for more videos can i ask where did u get your side table beside your couches the one with the power outlet or usb plug in on it thankyou❤

Beautiful room!! May i ask the color of your walls?
Thank you! It is called black fox by sherwinn Williams. Valspar should be able to mix that color for you cheaper as well.
Oh my gosh thanks so very much!!!
I Love It ❤❤❤❤
Yay!
Maybe a pocket door
You have just worn me out watching you, lol. I used to do all of that when I was young. I love the color of your mantle.
Hahaha! Thank you so much for watching
Need to rotated toy boxes so they don’t get board with there toys x
Did I hear you say that you are in Texas? And have a home decor booth… please tell me more
Yes, I am in houston and have 2 home decor booths that I sell out of. It is inside a painted tree boutique at 1153 kingwood drive 77339. Booths m4 and m8
So sad when we lose our pets..when u spend everyday with that animal they become like your child ❤
Yes indeed
@ so hard I feel ya I’m still in grief since Aug
