One morning I was making the bed while my husband was in the room getting dressed. It suddenly dawned on my dim brain that there's no reason my husband shouldn't also be making the bed! He sleeps in it every night after all. It's not exactly a learned skill to make it. Takes less than 30 seconds to pull up the sheets and fluff the pillows! I didn't make a big fuss I just asked him for help. He did and has every morning since.
That is great! Our rule is last one out makes the bed and that is almost always me LOL. He leaves really early for work everyday =)
It's good to let your bed air out in the morning . Fold the cover down and make it up an hour or so later.
My mom was not a "let the kids do as they please" kinda mom.
We had to tidy our room before bed and before we left for school.
She didn't want us to leave it cluttered for her to have to look at all day. And it was also nice to wake up in the morning in a tidy room.
Your mom is such a treasure. Having her in your life is such a blessing, truly. Mine is halfway across the world and so it makes me happy to see how your ma brings so much love, laughter and beauty into your life. Stay blessed Shannon! Love your videos! ❤
Thank you! I hope you have a nice day.
That picture by Kathy will look beautiful. I'm glad you're a minimalist who appreciates colour and coziness 😊❤️
Oh thank you!
I love these monthly resets. It inspires me to start doing this.🥰🥰🥰 My son recently got engaged and his fiancé has moved in with us. She loves cooking and my son is a chef so they have been enjoying grocery shopping and cooking together. How did I get this lucky????🥰😂
That is awesome! I wish I had someone to cook for me, that sounds amazing. Sometimes my mom will come over and make something delicious, but that is one reason I love Green Chef it allows me to try new meals I wouldn't normally make =)
It’s a really good idea actually to reset at the beginning of the month. I do all my checks too, water softener, fire alarms, etc much easier to remember! Xx
I think like you do when I switch out my clothes for the new season 😊
Sometimes I even don't remember all of the things I stored and am pleasantly surprised.
At the moment it's still quite cold and rainy where I live (south-east Germany) so I'm kind of inbetween winter and spring clothes. I'm looking forward to warmer temperatures for sure.
Love that! It's always a fun surprise to see what is in the box =) We are also having some rain every few days. It makes it hard to get dressed in the morning with extreme weather changes lol.
Your mom’s artwork looks so fresh and beautiful in your kitchen.
Thank you Anna! I hope you are having a good day =)
Hi just want to say I love watching your channel, we are a minimalist family too and it just makes me happy watching you reset your house. Thank you, from Australia. 😊
Oh thank you!
I am doing a reset of our freezer and pantry. Using up all the older stuff before restocking. It's sometimes funny what meals we come up with, to use things up 😂
Hi Michele, that is such a great idea to use everything up by making interesting meals. I feel there is usually one night a week where we just eat a lot of random leftovers lol. I hope you have a nice day.
I’m in Canada and the benefit is that we do get to change our wardrobes according to the seasons. I still would prefer to live where it’s warmer all year round but since I don’t I like to look at things as the glass half filled.😂
I've never been the first comment before! Changing out clothes for the seasons is something I've never done before. It does seem like a good idea to keep the hanging clothes from being too packed in and getting so wrinkled.
Hi Deb, Yay for being first =) I like to switch my clothes because of that exact reason.
I don't have enough clothes to take any out seasonally.
Lovely home reset. It feels so good to have everything in their own places around the home. Loved you mum’s artwork 😊
Hi Melissa, Our bedspread was bought a few years ago from Home Goods and the tablecloths I bought from Amazon.
That tip to cut the flowers was amazing! And I love that painting your mom did.
So lucky you have your mom.. now that im also a mom i appreciate my mom even more..and i love that you include her in your videos.. such a cool mom..
Thank you Annie, I really do feel lucky that she lives so close =)
@@shannontorrens1 i wish my mom was close to where we live.. i call her almost everyday and we talk for hours.. mom therapy is the best therapy in the world..
We still use ice trays also..its my husband's job each morning to fill the bin and refill the trays...
That is awesome!
Totally random but at 2:59 it looks like you are wearing a crown 👑
I love that painting that your mom did!
I reset the house properly every 10 weeks. I am a full time Middle School Teacher and I have 4 kids.
I do quick resets on Sundays but in the holidays I go right through the house. My brain is able to focus when I’m not in term tone so I clean through and de clutter.
The first thing I do when I step out of bed is turn around and start making the bed. I also add a throw & cushions. Then I can use the loo & get dressed etc. It’s literally ingrained into my brain lol
That is exactly what I do! I don't like to leave the room till the bed is made, it literally takes me less than a minute.
Quick zip sheets for hard to make beds! God bless you and yours.
In Europe and Scandinavia we "unmake" our bed each morning.. shake everything out, open the windows and air and let the sun in... this gets rid of moisture you loose in the night into your bedding and reduces bed mites (they don't like dry, cold, light)...the bed should be aired for at least 1hr.. but I leave the house to take kids to school and then on to work.. so we make out beds in the evening before we go in the bathroom to get ready for bed (shower, brush teeth, pjs etc)... it works perfectly... and my unmade bed looks great to me because I know its better for our health.
Hi Shannon,loved your video ,you made everything looks nice and cozy,love seeing you with your family,please tell your mom hi and you both are fun to watch together ❤️May God bless you both and your family.🙏
Doing a simple reset every month is a great idea!
I don’t have a dishwasher or ice maker in my new house. I don’t miss them. Love your shows
Thank you for this realistic and encouraging reset!!! 🥰 Being a wife and mom along with keeping a beautiful home…such a blessing to see!💗
You were on fire, you did so much. I love the picture your mum did.
"Reset" our bedroom a couple of weeks ago after painting it. It feels so good to know there are no dust bunnies behind and under the bed anymore! I wish it was permanent 😊 In the process, I realized that we never used the light fixture on our ceiling fan so we removed it. I was full of dust 🙄 I'm hungry after seeing the veggies on the grill - yum! Brown sugar - I just finished making some this morning by whisking molasses into regular sugar. It's so easy and I can make a smaller amount and store it in a mason jar. Thanks for a great video!
I freeze my bread too
I put mine in fridge 😊 have been doing it quite a while since bread really gets moldy so easily.
Stripped down the bed and washed everything. Aired out the mattress earlier today and sprinkled baking soda on top and then vacuum.
Good morning Shannon. What a haul. I love that perfectly organized fridge - particularly the way you've organized all the condiments . Thanks so much for sharing a look at your morning reset routine. 😉👍
My fridge is the funniest thing ever, I will organize it, clean it out and I turn around and the whole thing looks like a disaster again. I guess I pick my battles around here hahaha
@@shannontorrens1 Yes, well, we all have to pick out battles. 😉😊
I love your dining room tablecloth. It was a perfect choice, as it ties all of the colors together in the room. I really look forward to watching your video each week. ☺️🙋♀️
Thanks so much Kathleen! 😊 So happy to have you here.
Another helpful and inspiring video. Thanks. And I LOVE your mom’s artwork. 😍
Thank you so much!
Loved this reset video. The 🖼️ art is so nice - you are both so talented. Well done on finishing all you wanted to do 👏🏼❤️😘
Thanks so much! 😊
Good morning, Shannon. Did you get new bedsheets? Those are really pretty! Your sons room looks really good. Levi is growing up so fast! What a cutie. I love your blue tablecloth. It looks so pretty with your pictures. And I love the painting your mom did for you in the kitchen. I always love a pop of color. Enjoy your day!
Thank you for being here! About a year ago I did get new bedsheets because our actually ripped lol. These are working great. I hope you have a wonderful day =)
I’m totally in the same stage as you, and funny to see what’s inside your fridge cause I buy the same items 😂 I have my washer and dryer in the kitchen 😩so I do laundry everyday but Sunday, it’ll be fun to see your method
Thank you Monie, I am excited to share what I learn with this laundry experiment =)
I really enjoy your videos! Great inspiration. I'm continuing my Swedish death cleaning & minimalist journey. All your ideas are so helpful❤
Thank you Toni, I am happy to have you here. =)
I love the reset idea! The boys room looked amazing! Love the pic your mom painted for you! 🌟🥰💓
Thank you so much!!
Great video. The boys room looks wonderful.❤
Your Mom is so talented! I love your new artwork. Enjoy your videos! I’m new to your channel.
Thank you for being here Vickie!
Crikey you got so much done!
Yous both do gorgeous art work
Thank you so much 😀
Love your channel hope you get to 100k soon!!!
Maybe one day! =)
I've been watching for a new video!
Thank you! I am so happy to have you here.
Great job Shannon! 💕
You motivated me again... I'm going to reset today too❤
I'm so glad!
I like your videos very much. Thanks for encouraging me❤
I have that same tablecloth ❤
Yay! I love it =) Its also surprising how well it holds up!
Being minimalist is the best way to have a balanced environment.🙂
I make my own ice too! Love the boys bedroom! And how nice your mom is also an artist!
Thank you! 😊
Love watching. You are very inspirational. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much!
You’re really pretty and I love your voice
Hola Shannon...I love your kids room its lovely. I like the desk they have. Where is it available?
Hello, that desk is from Ikea =) Very affordable too.
So motivating
Library bag would be handy
Well now I'm curious since you mentioned the new laundry routine. Hope your weather calms down so we can continue the garage organization project.
Hi Linda, the laundry video will be up next week and I am really excited to share how it's going. I have been thinking about that garage project everyday LOL. It is coming soon =)
I know we all do things differently as parents, and no judgment here, just something that worked for me: I "trained" (what's the right word here, they aren't pets) to put away their own toys - they played with it, they get to clean it up and put it away properly (in the box it came in, in the bin labeled with the item (or picture of the item) on it, etc. If they did not put away their toys/belongings, then if Mom or Dad had to take care of it, then Mom or Dad would be taking those items to the donation center "where another kid would love it and take better care of it". I tell you this bc I felt bad that you were stressing out cleaning out the boys' room before they came home with Grandma. You are the Mom, not the Maid, and you have enough to do in a day 💝
I am not offended, but like I said in the video they normally do their room all themselves but I wanted to do it because I had an extra minute and I again WANTED to do it myself. I wanted to get it cleaner than they do. I wasn't stressed I just wanted to finish cleaning the whole house before everyone came home =)
Love your tablecloth! It’s beautiful. ❤
Thank you! 😊
I’m also strangely early to the comment party this time. Lol.
I have a weird closet. Or should I say closets. 😅😅 It’s set up with a little nook between 2 super small closet spaces (each is little more than 2 feet of space). I use the middle nook also tho for some hanging stuff with a tension rod and I keep my super small hamper in there. It’s pretty easy I guess to switch out the seasons by just switching where I hang things. Also I have a shelf in the main one so I can only hang “short” things there. The middle is mostly just pants , skirts and a couple of dresses. I finally got my all seasons wardrobe down to about 75 hanging items (including coats, jackets, etc lol).
Also now use an armoire with a tv inside so it’s not “drawers” anymore. It’s just a shelf and a bottom. So top shelf is in season and bottom shelf is 2 bins in the bottom. So I just put the in season on top and the off season on the bottom. Socks and undies are to the left in tiny internal drawers (it was originally made for a desk setup 😅😅).
Thank you for sharing your set up it sounds really organized =)
I would like to get my closet down to only enough for all seasons to fit in it so things don't have to be transferred to another place.
I can actually fit everything, but I had pulled these clothes out because they didn't fit (from having a baby last year). =)
Love the NZ top!
Hey, Shannon. The part where you mentioned your kitchen being a disaster, made me laugh because it reminded me of the other youtubers' kitchens REALLY being a disaster. 😂
haha! Hi Alice, that is funny. I guess this is a disaster to me lol. I hope you have a nice day.
@@shannontorrens1 I'm the same, lol. 😁 Minimalist for two and a half years now. You?
Hi there sweetie pie hope you are well just take one day at time great job with your decluttering and cleaning maybe a suggestion place mats on your table love from Eugenie your friend xxx 🏡🌞💓
Where is the fan above the stove?
The fan is in the microwave =)
Loved the video..I'm also resetting my clothes as well..i also shop one to 2times amonth and i always get..wow this is alot of food...lol
Afew yrs ago cashier's wldnt even say that to a customer
Hi Denise, I thought it was a funny question from a cashier because all they do is ring up people buying food. Maybe a lot of people go shopping everyday instead of once a week. =)
@@shannontorrens1 yeah pple shop alot often now adays..or they shop online and have it delivered..I'm old school like hunting for sales on stuff i need LOL
Very smart table cloth❤❤
Love this! Have you posted somewhere else where you got your bed spread and table cloths? I love them!
Thank you! I found the bed spread at Home Goods and the tablecloths are from Amazon. I will look for the link to that. =)
Reseat home ❤ that term
I don’t have ice machine either.
Love your hair❣️Jannike ❤️🇸🇪
Thank you, it's a new look for now =)
Make the bed so it is a flat surface
Yep =)
I love your table cloths. They look like our Turkish towels. Where are they from?
These are from Amazon. =)
very nice
I love your comforter. Can you please tell me where you purchased?😊 2
I found that at Home Goods =)
Where did you purchase the rack in your boys room with the hooks?
Hello Jessalyn, I found that at Ikea =)
I don't know about you, but I would need to rest for a week after doing all that! What a trouper!!
Haha I definitely can't keep my home looking great all the time it would be a never ending job lol. This is why I try to stay more minimal and do these reset days at least once a month. =)
Changing sheets on bunk beds is such a pain.
Hi Christy, I thought changing sheets on a normal bed was a pain lol, bunkbeds are a whole different story. It's a full workout!
We have such an ant problem I will not allow any food to drop anywhere in our yard.
Oh wow! That must be terrible, we have a lot of squirrels so I don't think any food sits out there for long.
shuting the door hahahaha
I would of had the laundry going from the start
You may have said it and I missed it, but what day of the week do you typically do this on?
The day usually depends on if I get some free time or how bad the house looks. I probably should be on more of a schedule, but usually I find a weekend day works better for me because then I have more help watching kids and free time =)
Waaaw,,kereen,,amazing👍👍
🌺 Wonderful and VERY helpful and useful video I loved watching AND LIKED IT SO VERY MUCH ✨ Happy to visit AGAIN ✨ love and greetings from INDIA ✨ I SUBSCRIBED for more amazing videos 🙏 BLESSINGS always to you and your lovely family with All the happiness and goodness and family well-being ✨✨
Thank you so much!
Where’d you find those tablecloths?
I found those on Amazon =)

LED lights emit significant radiation.
The amount of radiation you are exposed to while using LED lights is nothing compared to the radiation produced by the sun, TV remote controls, cell phones, etc.
Hello, I looked that up after I read your comment Mary since I know almost nothing about LED lights. As Susan mentioned I read that the radiation is coming at us from all angles. =) I guess we just have to enjoy life while we are living.
