For the scent booster wouldn’t it be better to use those little silk/ nylon bags instead of a bowl? Anyway, your videos are fun! And I adore your clean house 🌺🌸🌼
For the drawer hack, my husband uses corks from wine bottles to stop dividers from moving around. However,, the pool noodles are good because you can cut them to size in case you needed longer stops. I enjoy your videos.
Pool Noodle Hack I use a slightly thicker pool noodle. It fills the gap between my bed and the headboard which keeps my pillows from sliding back down in the gap. A complete length noodle works for my full size bed. You could glue gun two to make it longer and cut to size.
Love the hacks. Scent boosters/dryer sheets are very toxic to you, your children and pets. Getting headaches easily may be a sign your body isn't tolerating them
Hey, what about a knee high stocking opposed to putting the beads in a small bowl ? I would place them in a knee high and make a knot especially for the closet cuz I know ( I would forget it’s in there and those little beads would be all over the place ). Preferably a white stocking cuz it’s less of an “ eye sore “ over typical beige or black. I take whole cloves as a hack for now to deter closet moths. Supposedly moths despise it’s aromatic sent. Thank you for your video, big hugs from New York.
I tend to forget stuff like I placed a dish of scent beads up high and I could see myself knocking it off when using a swiffer and being showered with scent beads. So I like the idea of using a knee high ! Thanks 😊
@@katherinekelly5380 Awesome ! I thought purchasing my knee high hack at the local Dollar Tree would be cheaper than ordering special sachets. Happy Easter if you do celebrate the holiday 🥰
@@pumpkinpie7254 yeah - goodness knows I don’t wear kneehighs anymore so Dollar Tree will be just the ticket ! Yes, I am enjoying this holiday weekend and I hope you are too 🍫❣️🇨🇦
Good tips! However, I prefer a natural scent so I use 100% percent organic essential oils mixed with water for spraying my pillows, vacuuming, Etc. so that’s what I use. Love your channel! 😀
Good Morning Ashley! Love that Dawn and vinegar scrub brush hack. I have a huge tub that I hate to clean so this is a perfect idea for cleaning it. Thank you!! I have used a lot of the hack that you share and love them. It has inspired me to be a better housekeeper. Thank you for your willingness to share your ideas!! Have a great week!!
Hi Ashley! I’ve always thought being in Australia, I can’t get Dawn, but have just discovered that’s it’s sold under the brand name ‘Fairy’. I had no idea!! I’ll be using these hacks for sure! Thanks so much💗
Is it the fairy platinum I wonder? I knew it was the same manufacturer, but there's so many different types of fairy! There is a fairy power spray also but they have changed the formula and it's not as good! The fairy platinum washing up liquid has also changed, it was blue and a very good product however it's now green and not as good as when it came on the market at first. Has anyone else noticed this?
I got so tired of throwing away toilet brushes mostly bc they would get rusty from the wiring in the brush head. Home Depot sells a toilet brush called Unger ( kinda pricey ) $ 15.00 but it’s amazing as the brush doesn’t sit in it’s own cup after use. After cleaning the brush it’s somewhat suspended by a small latch and this method allows the brush to dry out. Check it out guy’s, our landfills will thank us !
Dryer sheets I'm thinking was if you don't clean the traps, so don't be lazy and I'm not putting Downy unstopables in my fish tank so I'm sure that's okay. Going out on the limb to say it's probably not any worse than any perfume that gives lots a headache ,as long as your light handed with it it's not like you're taking it like a crayon and rubbing it everywhere. Hairspray is toxic what you cook with this toxic everything is toxic your water has fluoride in it which is not good for adults 🤯 we can pick a part anything ,your carpet your fabrics that are already on your couch. The soda you drink if you drink mountain dew it has fire retardant in it so does Gatorade. We could go on and on.
Instead of vacuuming the beads just wrap a drying sheet on the filter and when it heat up it makes the vacuum air come out smelling good also it saves more your filter. But cleaning your vacuum before helps with bad smell
Love these ideas, especially the scent booster spray and the pool noodles for the back of drawers! My silverware tray is always sliding to the back so I'm trying this today! Also, if you don't like the color of your pool noodle you can cover it with contact paper. I've done that before and it actually sticks really well! 😊
FYI synthetic fragrances are endocrine disruptors. If you have thyroid, adrenal or hormone issues (PCOS, endometriosis, infertility) you should be avoiding synthetic fragrances at all costs. Also, look at scented dryer sheet packages. There is a warning that says not to touch to skin. What the?...that stuff gets all over your clothes which touches your skin. I'm not bashing these hacks I only say this to help women with these problems.
I loved the idea of using the felt tabs for essential oils! Most of the unstoppable hacks I already use, especially vacuuming them up to make the vaccuum smell good. Can't wait to put the Dawn and vinegar solution in all of my bathrooms and kitchen. Love the video!!! Thanks for the hacks... keep em coming!
Hi Ashley! These are great! I already have done the pine sol in the toilet brush cup but also instead of pine sol sometimes I use Dawn dish soap. So there’s another hack. I really like using the Dawn and vinegar too. But the one I’m going to try is the unstoppable spray to freshen up the home! Thank you for sharing! 🤗
I love the idea of the placing the scented beads around the house !! I love using dawn and vinegar as a cleanser !! It works so great !! Better than some of the store bought products .
yes I use the dawn and vinigar and a tad of baking soda in a spray bottle works great on stains doggy accidents takes out pee smells kills mold! amazing❤️
Nice noodles hacks!!! I place some in the legs of the mattress frame to avoid accidents with my little toes 😢 and…..those mattress frame legs are really hard, OUTCH!!!!
I make my own as well I just got water running alcohol fabric softener and sometimes half a tablespoon of scent boosters depending on the softener… I’m so addicted to laundry products I have 76 bottles of scent beads I couldn’t imagine just throwing them on the floor to vacuum up and throw away … lol pine sol I have moments I hate it and then love it you can wash your cloths with it also ..
Thank you so much for posting this hacks, my favorites are those downy laundry booster beads, which I use in my car, I filled out coffee filters and secure them with a rubber band. I also use pool noodles between the driver seat and passenger seat between those gaps so dirt or debris won’t go there.
Love the hacks! Will have to try the Dawn and vinegar one in my shower! Another hack for the pool noodles if you have a trampoline: You can cut them down to size to cover the springs on the side. That way little fingers don't get caught in there either! You can also use different colors and make it fun!
Hello Ashley, I love all of these ideas. I still use the toilet paper stamp in every single one of my bathrooms. Lol. I just want to say how much I love your channel and your beautiful family. You give me SO much inspiration. I guarantee that you could walk through my house and recognize so many things. Lol. Please, please, please don't leave us here like some other TH-camrs are. You, YOU are my very most favorite TH-camr on all social media. God bless you and your family. XOXO'S
Love the idea of placing the scents throughout the house, but these chemical filled beads made me cringe-especially since you mentioned you got a headache filming this for us. An alternative could be what I do, which is to use essential oils on cotton balls and put them in little glass votives in different places in the house to help get a clean scent throughout.
I pray no one ever has to use this hack but if you have a loved one who has to be in a hospital bed you can wrap the legs of the bed with pool noodles so don't stump your toes. I live in the country and we still have water pumps and I wrap my pipes with pool noodles in the winter to protect them as well as outside faucets. I like the Unstoppables on the carpet. I will be trying that one.
If your vaccum smells you need to clean it... Most of them state on the machine to clean after every use.. Take it apart and wash it. Scent beads will not take away the dirt and bacteria that tends to coats the inside of the machine and filters.
I use Dawn and vinegar for everything in rinse cycle cleaning , my mom told me her towels smelled musty and I told her to rinse them in vinegar and they came out fresh ! Thanks for your tips Ashley ! 😊🌼🌷
Hi Ashley, Your channel is simply the BEST! You give such great motivation and tips galore. All at pretty affordable prices too. You are the sweetest and you have such a pretty home and your dogs are cute too. Great content!!!! Watching from Michigan…Kim
For the deodorizers….try buying Dollar Tree plastic storage containers with the flip lock tops (3 pack for $1.25). Drill tons of holes in the lids then add your scented beads and lock it on. Can also use a sponge soaked in white vinegar if those beads give you a pounding headache.
I would be afraid to use the scent buster beads to spray on fabrics and rugs. It's formulated to go through the wash and rinse cycle in the washer. I would be worried about build up.
I completely agree! It's formulated to break down in many gallons of water and then gets rinsed away. It's not formulated for you to breathe it in at full strength for hours at a time. Copied from their safety data sheet Potential Health Effects (Acute and Chronic): (See Section 11 for more information) Ingestion: May cause mild gastrointestinal irritation. Eye Contact: May cause mild eye irritation. Skin Contact: Prolonged or repeated exposures to perfume oils may cause slight skin irritation. Inhalation: Prolonged or repeated exposures to perfume oils may cause respiratory tract irritation Prolonged or repeated exposure is concerning for people (especially young children) and pets One should not alter chemicals and only use them for their intended purpose. That being said Unstobbables makes a fabric spray that is formulated for fabric use.
Great ideas & tips. I can relate to the dog 🐕 odor in the vacuum. Definitely going to try the scent beads tip & the other helpful tips. Thanks Ashley. 😊
I am so glad you shared the tip with protecting the counter tops and coffee tables, I work in childcare and have used this for a a few years easy and so effective.. such a fabulous video xx
Ashley, I saw where another person said to heat the vinegar and dish soap when your refilling the brush, she said it mixes better, called it marrying them x
Great ideas!!! I need to try the shower brush with my teenagers. I have a comment regarding the first and last hack. For the first hack, instead of bowls I use dollar store sugar or salt shakers. This way, if it gets knocked over the beads are contained but the holes allow for it to freshen the room. With the last hack, I like the idea but I can also see kids taking it off to play with it too.
I really enjoyed your video. I will definitely be using the dawn and vinegar. I also want to try the room spray with the beads laundry. Thanks so much for shaing!❤
Grey pool noodles can be found in your plumbing area of Home Depot. Pre sliced and different depths. It’s called pipe insulation. They can also be covered pretty easily with fabric…wrap and tuck the ends into the slice fold over the ends and straight pin the ends to hold.
I have an inventors mind. I’m always thinking of new ideas! When I was a young mom, I (1988) I would dilute my downy in a spray bottle and spray my couches, beds, carpets, everything!!
Great ideas. I have seen some videos where they say to heat the vinegar first before adding to the Dawn. Do you know why? Also, some people have questioned using it on tiles (because of the grout) because of the acidic nature of vinegar. Do you know if it affects the grout at all?
Great video !!! 😉🌸🌸💖 Another cool thing to do is place those scent boosters in those little mesh jewelry bags and then u can hang them in your closets or wherever really . Done that little hack for years now .
Can I just say (I'm sure y'all already know, just my personal opinion) the scent booster powder packs work just as well/better....I especially love it for the wrinkle releaser, freshener 😁 Thanks for sharing such great tips 🥰
Here is a tip if your vacuum has a filter apply some scented oil on the filter I HAVE A SHARK VACUUM CORDLESS AND IT HAS BEEN A LIFE CHANGER EVEN IF YOU HAVE A HANDHELD ONE YOU CAN ALSO APPLY SCENTED OIL ON THE FILTER I HAD BEEN DOING THAT FOR YEARS..
What kind of dog do you have? What is his/her name? How long have you had him/her? Is she your dog or the family dog? When I was a kid, we had a dog and it was mostly my sister's dog, Kalah, pronounced Kayla, and sort of my dad's dog, too. We also had cats - first we only had one cat, named Kitty, who was my mom's baby. Then, shortly after he passed, we had two cats, calico twins, and one, Ally, the short-haired, darker-colored, was my mom's baby, the other named Amber, lighter-colored, slightly longer-furred, was mine. We also had a mouse named Pinky who was my sister's, a couple Guinea pigs, mine named Cotton, Michelle's named Star, and a bunch of hamsters, un-named all of them, plus we had a fish or two over the years. Right now, we have a dog, a yellow lab, named Kahlua. She's the sweetest dog, very lovey, very goofy, very silly, very hyper, very silly, she's two years old and she is mine.
Is it safe to spray that laundry Unstoppable beads/water solution on things that your pet would get on the bottoms of their paws and lick it off constantly? If it's not a problem, I REALLY wanna do it, cuz man I am a SUCKER for Unstoppables!
So many great ideas...some I knew but others are new. For your tall, floppy boots-what about clippy pants hangers? I don't have this but it came to mind while watching. There are some that are shorter and I can't remember what they come on. Thanks for all the great hacks. How does the shower cleaner work on 'scummy/cloudy' glass shower doors?
I am SO SO happy for you! We passed our final inspection today! Only 1 week behind you! We still have some small things to do but are going to start staying here right now!
All those artificial scents are HORRIBLE for hormones, please do not follow that "hack". I do not mean anything mean I love most of these types of videos I know she means well, but please do research for yourself and you will learn how chemical fragrances are hormone disruptors and can cause chronic issues when used repeatedly.
Great hacks I have been doing the spray bottle but I have been using liquid fabric softener as opposed to buying febreze or some other sprays. You are Brave my friend having all white with kids I am a boy mom I would never have white anything lol
Y'all, stop using laundry scents, whether beads or softener in spray bottles. The product isn't formulated for it to be used that way. It will cause a waxy type build up on whatever you spray it on. Also, not great for pets.
The artificial scents are awful! They linger and are obnoxious. I do not want my house to smell like that. Essential oils are much easier on my nose and on my migraines. I got a free sample of the beads and couldn’t get rid of it fast enough. I mistakenly bought scented washing machine soap and dishwasher soap. Never again.
If you haven’t discovered the drill brush attachment . Oh my goodness. I cleaned my whole shower in like 20 minutes. It was so nasty. I sprayed it with dawn, let it sit, then used the drill brush and attach it to my drill..
20 years ago I cut a 45 degree angle into pool noodles, sprayed them with fabric glue, placed fabric over them and hot glued them around the hearth in front the fireplace. Once it was all in place I sprayed them with some fire retardant. We lived there for 5 years and when we moved I was able to pull it up with ease. Just an idea for those moms with kids who love to run from room to room. It kept my rambunctious kids from some serious head trauma, it hurt when they fell into it, but we never had to have any stitches. It was also much more pleasing to the eye than the blue and green pool noodles I had.
Definitely going to try the dawn and vinegar! Also, pool noodles, can you use it in-between the stove and counter to avoid the food falling in-between?
Hi Ashley ! I had already planned in trying the Dawn & Vinegar hack that I heard from another you tuber who learned it from you ! I definitely will be trying the tube noodle to fill up a bucket of water ! Thanks for sharing and have a great week!
The scent boosters have a lot of chemicals in them, even diluted, spraying on bedding, sofas and pillows can cause skin irritation and allergy and breathing issues.
I made the air freshener with unstoppables. It left a residue. I tried using less. Still left residue. I do use them as you showed in small bowls everywhere. Mom always put baking soda or baking powder in her vacuum. The unstoppables smell a lot better. I use mouthwash in the toilet brush holder.
I love your home hack videos! Your videos always make me want to clean and do home projects. 😊I use the shower cleaner like you do and it works great. I love the scent booster ideas and the pool noodle in the back of the drawers. I use a “sticky” drawer liner and things still slide around.
stop using such harsh chemicals around your home, it's going to poison you and your children. not to mention the horrible effects on our environment. also pro tip: try to live more plastic free. all of this crap is extremely unnecessary
Just a heads up as someone with asthma, I'm going to have breathing problems if someone uses fragrances such as scent beads all over their house. please consider switching to natural solutions instead, and even then know a little goes a long way.
👍Hi Ashley!🌼 I love the hacks! They are really helpful and practical for use in home! Definitely going to use the beads around home and in closets! If you get those small nylon bags you can place the beads in there and they will not spill out of bowl. I will use the Dawn with vinegar for grout!👍 ⭐️Thank you so much!⭐️
You could use a sticky felt thing with some essential oils on it and stick it on the inside of your vacuum bin thingy where all the dirt goes 🥴 what’s it called? Brain fart here 😂😂
Good morning and welcome to my New Home Hacks video! I hope you find some of these useful and can implement in your home!
For the scent booster wouldn’t it be better to use those little silk/ nylon bags instead of a bowl? Anyway, your videos are fun! And I adore your clean house 🌺🌸🌼
P
i use pool noodles to put even folds and sheers on my curtains instead of tissue cardboard. ☺️
For the drawer hack, my husband uses corks from wine bottles to stop dividers from moving around. However,, the pool noodles are good because you can cut them to size in case you needed longer stops. I enjoy your videos.
Pool Noodle Hack
I use a slightly thicker pool noodle. It fills the gap between my bed and the headboard which keeps my pillows from sliding back down in the gap.
A complete length noodle works for my full size bed. You could glue gun two to make it longer and cut to size.
Love the hacks.
Scent boosters/dryer sheets are very toxic to you, your children and pets. Getting headaches easily may be a sign your body isn't tolerating them

Ooohhhh - like the ideas of using cloves or cinnamon- i find unstoppables a bit to intense and get a headache from it
@@katherinekelly5380 Awesome ! I thought purchasing my knee high hack at the local Dollar Tree would be cheaper than ordering special sachets. Happy Easter if you do celebrate the holiday 🥰
@@pumpkinpie7254 yeah - goodness knows I don’t wear kneehighs anymore so Dollar Tree will be just the ticket !
Yes, I am enjoying this holiday weekend and I hope you are too 🍫❣️🇨🇦
I bought some little wedding organza bag's and put mine in. Just an idea I had.
Good tips! However, I prefer a natural scent so I use 100% percent organic essential oils mixed with water for spraying my pillows, vacuuming, Etc. so that’s what I use. Love your channel! 😀
Good idea!
The scent booster spray is flammable. It's supposed to be rinsed out.
Good Morning Ashley! Love that Dawn and vinegar scrub brush hack. I have a huge tub that I hate to clean so this is a perfect idea for cleaning it. Thank you!! I have used a lot of the hack that you share and love them. It has inspired me to be a better housekeeper. Thank you for your willingness to share your ideas!! Have a great week!!
I have a big tub and I use a toilet boil brush for it ,,just for tub lol
I’m gonna try adding vinegar to my Dawn brush too!
same here, I will got today to buy them, 😊
Hi Ashley! I’ve always thought being in Australia, I can’t get Dawn, but have just discovered that’s it’s sold under the brand name ‘Fairy’. I had no idea!! I’ll be using these hacks for sure! Thanks so much💗

Been using the dish soap/vinegar scrubbers in my showers since last summer and I LOVE this tip!! No icky shower doors and floors!! 🙂
!!!! I’m going to use this for my new shared bathroom in college!

The vinegar will deteriorate grout over time. You should only use neutral pH cleanser on tile with grout.
Scent beads and any other fabric softener or dryer sheet are HIGHLY Flammable and HIGHLY TOXIC.
And I find they stink too lol
Was just coming here to say this. Yikes.
Life is toxic. Live!
Dryer sheets I'm thinking was if you don't clean the traps, so don't be lazy and I'm not putting Downy unstopables in my fish tank so I'm sure that's okay. Going out on the limb to say it's probably not any worse than any perfume that gives lots a headache ,as long as your light handed with it it's not like you're taking it like a crayon and rubbing it everywhere.

The pool noodle on the faucet is great! Been doing the shower dawn vinegar mixture in the brush and that works great!
Hi Ashley, how often would they need to be changed as you'd get used of the scent so wouldn't know if it had lost the scent or not.
Put a small piece of nettiNg over the top secure with tape or glue then they will not spill accidentally
I use Dawn and vinegar for everything in rinse cycle cleaning , my mom told me her towels smelled musty and I told her to rinse them in vinegar and they came out fresh ! Thanks for your tips Ashley ! 😊🌼🌷
That’s a great way to get that musty smell out
Hi Ashley, Your channel is simply the BEST! You give such great motivation and tips galore. All at pretty affordable prices too. You are the sweetest and you have such a pretty home and your dogs are cute too. Great content!!!!
Watching from Michigan…Kim
Those scent beads are really terrible for your respiratory health so please just be careful.
Great ideas! Been doing the boot thing for a while. Love protecting the counter edges. Also love the pine sol in the toilet brush holder!
Do the laundry beads really smell the room? I tried sachets and it didn’t smell like anything to me. I’m going to try the felt pads trick, thank you!
Gonna try that dawn n vinegar. I hav a terrible time with my bathroom tile♥️
For the deodorizers….try buying Dollar Tree plastic storage containers with the flip lock tops (3 pack for $1.25). Drill tons of holes in the lids then add your scented beads and lock it on. Can also use a sponge soaked in white vinegar if those beads give you a pounding headache.
I’ll try the unstoppables inside the A/C vent .
Totally trying the noodle on door trick! 🎉
I think grandsons compete on who can slam the loudest ---!!!😮
Thank you for posting!

Okay so your house is one of my favorites! Every room is so beautiful!!! Love your nails too!❤

I really enjoyed your video. I will definitely be using the dawn and vinegar. I also want to try the room spray with the beads laundry. Thanks so much for shaing!❤
Thanks so much for watching! See you in the next one!
Grey pool noodles can be found in your plumbing area of Home Depot. Pre sliced and different depths. It’s called pipe insulation. They can also be covered pretty easily with fabric…wrap and tuck the ends into the slice fold over the ends and straight pin the ends to hold.
I have an inventors mind. I’m always thinking of new ideas!
When I was a young mom, I (1988) I would dilute my downy in a spray bottle and spray my couches, beds, carpets, everything!!
I use bleach in my toilet bowl brush holder.
I use fabric softener mixed with water for my “Febreze”.
Hi Ashley, I love the idea of pine sol in the toilet brush
It would make my bathroom smell much better ❤️ and using the washing scent needs spray too!
Fatter noodles work better in boots.
I like spraying the scent booster spray on heat/air register vents, that way when the heater/air comes on, it pushes the scent around. :)
Great ideas. I have seen some videos where they say to heat the vinegar first before adding to the Dawn. Do you know why? Also, some people have questioned using it on tiles (because of the grout) because of the acidic nature of vinegar. Do you know if it affects the grout at all?
I would suggest covering the entire top of the key. I did mine and now after years the only spot left is about the size of what you did.
What a beautiful home! I liked that the white dog matched the bed. I matched my carpet to my dog”s hair once, it worked!
Great video !!! 😉🌸🌸💖
Another cool thing to do is place those scent boosters in those little mesh jewelry bags and then u can hang them in your closets or wherever really . Done that little hack for years now .
Happy Sunday hun! I have some time to watch before church!❤
Happy Sunday girl, thanks for watching and enjoy church today
Can I just say (I'm sure y'all already know, just my personal opinion) the scent booster powder packs work just as well/better....I especially love it for the wrinkle releaser, freshener 😁
Thanks for sharing such great tips 🥰
Here is a tip if your vacuum has a filter apply some scented oil on the filter I HAVE A SHARK VACUUM CORDLESS AND IT HAS BEEN A LIFE CHANGER EVEN IF YOU HAVE A HANDHELD ONE YOU CAN ALSO APPLY SCENTED OIL ON THE FILTER I HAD BEEN DOING THAT FOR YEARS..
I loved your scented beads idea and also the Dawn w/vinegar. I loved your ideas! Thank you!
What kind of dog do you have? What is his/her name? How long have you had him/her? Is she your dog or the family dog? When I was a kid, we had a dog and it was mostly my sister's dog, Kalah, pronounced Kayla, and sort of my dad's dog, too. We also had cats - first we only had one cat, named Kitty, who was my mom's baby. Then, shortly after he passed, we had two cats, calico twins, and one, Ally, the short-haired, darker-colored, was my mom's baby, the other named Amber, lighter-colored, slightly longer-furred, was mine. We also had a mouse named Pinky who was my sister's, a couple Guinea pigs, mine named Cotton, Michelle's named Star, and a bunch of hamsters, un-named all of them, plus we had a fish or two over the years. Right now, we have a dog, a yellow lab, named Kahlua. She's the sweetest dog, very lovey, very goofy, very silly, very hyper, very silly, she's two years old and she is mine.
Is it safe to spray that laundry Unstoppable beads/water solution on things that your pet would get on the bottoms of their paws and lick it off constantly? If it's not a problem, I REALLY wanna do it, cuz man I am a SUCKER for Unstoppables!
So glad ya left the falling boot in..... that was so funny and natural. Girl, loved the knowledge
So many great ideas...some I knew but others are new. For your tall, floppy boots-what about clippy pants hangers? I don't have this but it came to mind while watching. There are some that are shorter and I can't remember what they come on. Thanks for all the great hacks. How does the shower cleaner work on 'scummy/cloudy' glass shower doors?
I am SO SO happy for you! We passed our final inspection today! Only 1 week behind you! We still have some small things to do but are going to start staying here right now!
All those artificial scents are HORRIBLE for hormones, please do not follow that "hack". I do not mean anything mean I love most of these types of videos I know she means well, but please do research for yourself and you will learn how chemical fragrances are hormone disruptors and can cause chronic issues when used repeatedly.
Great hacks I have been doing the spray bottle but I have been using liquid fabric softener as opposed to buying febreze or some other sprays. You are Brave my friend having all white with kids I am a boy mom I would never have white anything lol
#11 my parents would of loved when I was a kid bc when ever I got mad I always slammed my bedroom door 🤣 great hacks, Ashley! Have a blessed week! 🖤🤍
Y'all, stop using laundry scents, whether beads or softener in spray bottles.
The product isn't formulated for it to be used that way. It will cause a waxy type build up on whatever you spray it on. Also, not great for pets.
Do you have a link for the brushes that you filled with Dawn and vinegar, please? Thank you!
The artificial scents are awful! They linger and are obnoxious. I do not want my house to smell like that. Essential oils are much easier on my nose and on my migraines. I got a free sample of the beads and couldn’t get rid of it fast enough. I mistakenly bought scented washing machine soap and dishwasher soap. Never again.
Great video. 👍 watching you from work but on the way home, I'm stopping to pick up some blue Dawn and using that hack in our shower.
If you haven’t discovered the drill brush attachment . Oh my goodness. I cleaned my whole shower in like 20 minutes. It was so nasty. I sprayed it with dawn, let it sit, then used the drill brush and attach it to my drill..
20 years ago I cut a 45 degree angle into pool noodles, sprayed them with fabric glue, placed fabric over them and hot glued them around the hearth in front the fireplace. Once it was all in place I sprayed them with some fire retardant. We lived there for 5 years and when we moved I was able to pull it up with ease. Just an idea for those moms with kids who love to run from room to room. It kept my rambunctious kids from some serious head trauma, it hurt when they fell into it, but we never had to have any stitches. It was also much more pleasing to the eye than the blue and green pool noodles I had.
Definitely going to try the dawn and vinegar! Also, pool noodles, can you use it in-between the stove and counter to avoid the food falling in-between?
Great havks...except the pinesol...it is so caustic and if your dog would get into it, it would be dead...there are other liquids to use...
Wow! you are amazing, your house is definitely sparkling clean and beautiful. Thanks for sharing
Hi Ashley ! I had already planned in trying the Dawn & Vinegar hack that I heard from another you tuber who learned it from you ! I definitely will be trying the tube noodle to fill up a bucket of water ! Thanks for sharing and have a great week!
you can paint the pool noodles
Be careful with those scent beads. Especially with animals . They are also endocrine disruptors 😢
Yes👏🏻👏🏻. Why do people put the clean clothes back into a dirty hamper?🤦🏻♀️
The scent boosters have a lot of chemicals in them, even diluted, spraying on bedding, sofas and pillows can cause skin irritation and allergy and breathing issues.
I made the air freshener with unstoppables. It left a residue. I tried using less. Still left residue. I do use them as you showed in small bowls everywhere. Mom always put baking soda or baking powder in her vacuum. The unstoppables smell a lot better. I use mouthwash in the toilet brush holder.
Any ideas or hacks for bathroom plungers? How to store them, clean and sanitized? Thanks
I love the smell of pinesol. You can also use dawn mixed with vinegar to shampoo your dog's. This is a nontoxic flea and tick killer.
I love your videos but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD fix the volume of the music in them!
I love your home hack videos! Your videos always make me want to clean and do home projects. 😊I use the shower cleaner like you do and it works great. I love the scent booster ideas and the pool noodle in the back of the drawers. I use a “sticky” drawer liner and things still slide around.
stop using such harsh chemicals around your home, it's going to poison you and your children.
not to mention the horrible effects on our environment. also pro tip:
try to live more plastic free. all of this crap is extremely unnecessary
Just a heads up as someone with asthma, I'm going to have breathing problems if someone uses fragrances such as scent beads all over their house. please consider switching to natural solutions instead, and even then know a little goes a long way.
👍Hi Ashley!🌼 I love the hacks! They are really helpful and practical for use in home! Definitely going to use the beads around home and in closets! If you get those small nylon bags you can place the beads in there and they will not spill out of bowl. I will use the Dawn with vinegar for grout!👍
⭐️Thank you so much!⭐️
Great tips but very toxic and dangerous chemicals. Consider therapeutic grade essential oils instead.
You could use a sticky felt thing with some essential oils on it and stick it on the inside of your vacuum bin thingy where all the dirt goes 🥴 what’s it called? Brain fart here 😂😂
