Donate old towels to local animal shelter. Use that borax and washing soda in your everyday laundry-one small scoop in each load. Also, they are good for general cleaning solutions.
I love videos you do with Haley; you two are like besties hanging out having a blast! She definitely has your sense of humor and you two make me smile. Thank you so much for making my day, Christine.
I agree with you both! A cluttered space gives me cluttered brain. And once things are tidy, it does feel like you’ve been holding your breath for such a long time and can finally exhale. These are valuable lessons we teach our children. It’s easier to take a bit and tidy up, but overwhelming to let it go for “just one more day”.
One good rule of thumb that i like to follow is the "one-in-one-out". And I do that for everything in the house. I have however much I need, and some things I just buy once they're either worn out or empty, and if I buy one thing, another has to go. Like that it never gets cluttered and everything always has a place
I need to hit up Dollar Tree for baskets and I need a label maker to keep it all together. Love seeing you and Haley together. You are such a fun pair!
Such a simple moment when you asked "honey, what is this, why do you have so many half-bottles." I get the sense some people were never 'confronted' in a space where they feel open to acknowledge and change. It's later in life for many when they have never been challenged on their behavior when someone yells at them, they get defensive and only crawl deeper into "I can do what I want because everyone's so mean to me."
I don’t like lotion on body (prefer the thicker body cream) BUT I need lotion on my hands to get my wedding rings on and off. I had one nice bottle of lotion pump out on counter and was sad that I was running low. However when I was decluttering one day I took all the hotel lotion bottles and squirted them into my lotion pump. Now I have a “new” lotion bottle AND I used all the small lotion bottles (except for one for travel) AND I freed up space. I love seeing you with your children. Enjoy these beautiful days!!
I love your daughter's take on things towards then end. She's very pleasant and expresses herself well. I hope the newly reorganized space helps her out 😊
I recently got new bathroom cabinets ( 50 year old ones are now gone) so I did a purge. I had so many things I didn't realize I didn't need or use. It is so nice to open those cabinets now.
Those bins are so cute! I’ll definitely have to go to my dollar tree to see if they have bins that are the right size. Don’t forget to measure, people!
This is on my list of things to do! My girls share a bathroom and they are young but my 5-year-old is very much a (play) makeup girl with hair chalk, and all the accessories. They need a good reorganization. Also I love Dollar Tree and it always makes me want to visit mine and brew up some new ideas.
Christine, I LOVE you! I’ve watched your videos for years now and you’ve taught me a lot and entertained me endlessly. Watching you go through the cabinet with Hailey is like watching a video of me going through stuff with my mother, even down to the “you touch you deal with it” 🤣 Thoroughly enjoyed these organizing videos! Thanks for sharing with us 😊
Great job! I have a linen closet that is skinny and deep ... really frustrating. I have to have baskets but it's still difficult just with the depth. However, I'm also a "prepare for everything" person, so I need to pare down & go through the bottles & stuff. I loathe waste ... that's an Achilles Heel of mine! Ugh! Thank you for sharing!
A little tip to help, for those small organizers in the drawer, to keep them from sliding in the drawer dollar tree sells putty near like the teacher section and it’s good to put a bit under them to keep them still.
I just bought a second home and it’s a small place. This video was super helpful in helping me brainstorm ideas of how to organize the bathrooms. As always, great content!
I feel this! About every year I have to go through my bathroom stuff and get rid of stuff. I'm almost there where I only have stuff I use but I still get random stuff.
So glad it didn't end up as a argument - sometimes when peoples spaces get invaded (mom) it can lead to a LOT of NOOOOO you cant do that ...you have taught your daughter well my friend ...glenda
just so you know I haven’t watched one of your videos that I didn’t like. Great content on all fronts! Educational, relatable, useful tips, not over the top, just great! Keep doing a wonderful job! Thanks again!
I'm starting to watch you. It's nice to see your husband too. Thank you for your Dollar Tree tip in a previous video about the rice cake? treats. I bought some and they are delicious and low in calorie. I happen to go to an appointment yesterday and was told I was 30 lb lighter than the last time I was there. I'm working on it. I forgot to look for the ice cream. You reminded me of it in this video.
First of all, so jealous of Haley having her own bathroom (I think we could fit ours twice in hers), and second, very impressed with the decluttering. Wish you were a professional and could help me with my home. I'm a hoarder. Not stacks of newspaper kind, but a hoarder nonetheless.
Great video ladies! I'm usually the one I'm our house that ends up doing the decluttering. We haven't been in our current house a year yet and I'm noticing that things are starting to get out of control, so this was right on time.
I love videos like this, makes me feel much more normal at the mountain of crap I have hiding all over the place! ... but also reminds me that I really should do a clear out too!
My son and I used the 5 quarter store bins to organize our "snack" cabinet a few months ago. SOOOO much better! Yesterday, I did the same with my fridge for all the jars of jams, pickled things, mustards, hot sauce, etc. Dollar tree had long, sturdy bins with a rubber mat on the bottom. Now I can just pull one out to pick which jam I want, instead of searching. 😁 I guess I'll have to do my bathroom now lol. Thanks for another great video!
Because of one of your previous DT videos when you first discovered the KIND Ice Cream, we found some at our DT and IT IS DELICIOUS. My husband loves it and we have already gone back there for him to grab a bunch! That is saying a lot if HE enjoys ice cream that isn't dairy based!!!!! He can be a snob about things sometimes... LOL!
Thank you for the organizing motivation! The whole bathroom looks so functional and cute now. Plus, It’s nice to know that I’m not the only one who picks up something and asks “why do we have this?!” 😂
You guys did a great job, but I’d recommend a lazy Susan for under the sink for her more frequently used items. I use one in my bathroom and rarely have to tidy up because its easier to find what I want and put it away after use.
Side note: Get a curved rod for the shower curtain (like in the fancy hotels)!! Target has them. It gives you so much extra space for singing and dancing!!
I'm so so jealous. My Dollar Tree looks nothing like yours. It a total mess with delivery carts in front of shelves, etc. Ugh. Glad you & your kids are able to organize. Looks fantastic! Be well.
thank you for the motivation to do something with my linen closet. it's a jumbled mess. lol so when my Jeep gets out of the shop, i will be going to dollar tree for some bins.
I actually have really been loving the plus side on the Dollar Tree too! I love how your guy's bathroom cabinets and drawers are a reflection of what mine looked like. I was like,"Whoa! This looks familiar, doesn't it?!" 🤔🤔🤣🤣
Ohhhh my word... I'm TOTALLY the same when it comes to the almost empty ANYTHING containers!! Makes me 🤪🤪💯!! I am guilty of random products hanging out without trying them, tried once or twice etc... I'll add tossing those to my long to do list. 👍
Do you have a Blessing Box in your area? It’s a place to put groceries for the underprivileged or people going through hard times. Just a suggestion if you do, as this economy gets worse, put in the baby powder, lotions, etc instead of throwing away. I’m sure people would appreciate it ☺️😉 Continue having FUN!
I went to my "5 quarters" store yesterday and they had restocked the Kind Ice cream also. I bought every container of the almond/sea salt that my store had. SO SO SO GOOD!!!!! (And way cheaper then any other store.)
Great video! I’m so jealous of your large closets and amount of cabinets. I really think whoever built our house said “what is the least amount of storage areas we can put into a house” 😂
Oh lord, I can relate. 😂 The inside storage here is absolutely atrocious. Or maybe i just have too much stuff but there's no hall/coat closet for storing outside jackets or brooms and instead, whoever built this house thought we needed a bunch of random decorative cutouts in the walls for large vases or something? I honestly would have preferred a closet or two!
I love how you randomly call one of your kids and give them a chore to do instead of asking if they WANT to do it. Seen this with a lot if parents. Especially funny if the kid just says “No” 🤣
I love the Dollar Tree baskets! That's what we use to organize our bathrooms as well. I also have the problem with the teenager leaving empty bottles lol 🙄
When it comes to anything like shampoo, Laundry soap, hand soap, window cleaner, any product that cleans basically, donate it. Even if the area doesn't allow opened bottles to be sold, they often times can use it in house to reduce costs!
I use those blue baskets that she picked up and said we're flexible to organize stuff in my lazy susan rather than just sitting stuff in the lazy Susan. I have each one for specific reasons like one has all my baking stuff cupcake liners, chocolate chips icing. One for like grains for serving packets of rice stuff that comes in multipack boxes like asian noodles or ready rice so I don't have to store a half empty box things like that
Donate old towels to local animal shelter. Use that borax and washing soda in your everyday laundry-one small scoop in each load. Also, they are good for general cleaning solutions.
Haley makes me smile. She’s so sweet and really growing into a fantastic future woman. I know you’re so proud by that Christine.
I love videos you do with Haley; you two are like besties hanging out having a blast! She definitely has your sense of humor and you two make me smile. Thank you so much for making my day, Christine.

Hailey is so cute. You are a blessed momma.

I have however much I need, and some things I just buy once they're either worn out or empty, and if I buy one thing, another has to go. Like that it never gets cluttered and everything always has a place
Cut up old towels for rags! Best for wiping mirrors or grotty corners. Just throw in a wash load and go again!
That is quite a big first aid box. Can you do a "what's in my first aid box" and suggest purchasing name brand vs dollar store first aid items
the random sock....thumbs up for that!
Oh I love kind yet bossy and motivated moms you are such a gem
That's awesome 👍I love the feeling after organizing 😊 we can stop looking at it lol 😆 when before we don't want to not even open the doors 🙂!
I would be so happy if my Dollar Tree had a storage container section like the one in this video.
Love a good decluttering session. Teenagers and empty containers. Why is it so hard for them to find the trash can/recycle bin. Thanks for sharing 💞
Baby powder works well in the beach bag - good for getting sand off of feet before putting sandals back on

PERFECT TIMING!!! I just did every drawer in my kitchen yesterday! On to my bathroom cabinetry!
Your daughter seems like a good sport. Y'all made a good team working on the bathroom. The finished product is lovely.
I recently got new bathroom cabinets ( 50 year old ones are now gone) so I did a purge. I had so many things I didn't realize I didn't need or use. It is so nice to open those cabinets now.
Those bins are so cute! I’ll definitely have to go to my dollar tree to see if they have bins that are the right size. Don’t forget to measure, people!
Best mom hack ever 😆 “TYLER!… Go dust something”
5 quarter store - love it!

When you talked about teenagers leaving empty containers ( or just about empty) instead of throwing them away, I laughed out loud! I can relate!
Great video, the extra basket could be used for the products no longer wanted so you can find them new homes 💕
Christine, I LOVE you! I’ve watched your videos for years now and you’ve taught me a lot and entertained me endlessly.
Watching you go through the cabinet with Hailey is like watching a video of me going through stuff with my mother, even down to the “you touch you deal with it” 🤣

A very mother and daughter moment…….
Aw Haley is adorable!!! And yes, clutter makes your mind a little crazy.
I just bought a second home and it’s a small place. This video was super helpful in helping me brainstorm ideas of how to organize the bathrooms. As always, great content!
Christine and family have a great week have fun thanks from Oklahoma
I like that green color on the walls.
Haha!! I’ve been going through my entire house right now doing this as well!! So nice to see that I am not the only one that accumulates “ stuff”
I'd love to see a video where you paint the brown cabinetry white in Haley's bathroom.
Your organization videos lately have been so motivating. 😄 good job.
Thank you so much 😊
Organizing and decluttering is such a great feeling!
You and Haily did a great job with decluttering and organizing her bathroom. Great video as always.
I feel this! About every year I have to go through my bathroom stuff and get rid of stuff. I'm almost there where I only have stuff I use but I still get random stuff.
I came to the same conclusion about towels a few months back. Everyone has 2, that’s plenty. Gave away the others. It’s a win-win.
Your dollar store is so much nicer and better stocked than the ones near me.
So glad it didn't end up as a argument - sometimes when peoples spaces get invaded (mom) it can lead to a LOT of NOOOOO you cant do that ...you have taught your daughter well my friend ...glenda
I love that you renamed it the 5 quarter store !
Maybe your intention for visiting the dollar
store was always for the Kind ice cream 😜
just so you know I haven’t watched one of your videos that I didn’t like. Great content on all fronts! Educational, relatable, useful tips, not over the top, just great! Keep doing a wonderful job! Thanks again!
I bought a lot of kitchen stuff for cooking 🧑🍳 🥘 in past and organizing and birthday items at dollar store Blessings to all ❤️🙏🥥☕️🍳🌽🌮🌹🌹🌹
I'm starting to watch you. It's nice to see your husband too. Thank you for your Dollar Tree tip in a previous video about the rice cake? treats. I bought some and they are delicious and low in calorie. I happen to go to an appointment yesterday and was told I was 30 lb lighter than the last time I was there. I'm working on it.

Everything looks so nice and organized now 🙂
Thank you 😊
I enjoy bright fun colors of organizer containers too! Thanks for the suggestion.
I love videos like this, makes me feel much more normal at the mountain of crap I have hiding all over the place! ... but also reminds me that I really should do a clear out too!

Love dollar tree bins. Just got a small haul of them to organize my toddlers toys.
Because of one of your previous DT videos when you first discovered the KIND Ice Cream, we found some at our DT and IT IS DELICIOUS. My husband loves it and we have already gone back there for him to grab a bunch! That is saying a lot if HE enjoys ice cream that isn't dairy based!!!!! He can be a snob about things sometimes... LOL!
I'm so motivated to clean out my bathroom!
Thank you for the organizing motivation! The whole bathroom looks so functional and cute now. Plus, It’s nice to know that I’m not the only one who picks up something and asks “why do we have this?!” 😂
Each bin needs to be labeled.
Your Dollar Tree is amazing! Thanks for the great ideas for organizing the bathroom stuff!!
You guys did a great job, but I’d recommend a lazy Susan for under the sink for her more frequently used items. I use one in my bathroom and rarely have to tidy up because its easier to find what I want and put it away after use.
The taper candles in the trash made me flinch. I use those as a light source when the electricity is out
Tell me about it. By melting the tapered candles into the empty candle jar she could have made a big 3-wick candle.
I love watching y'all. You keep it real 💯.
Thank you so much 🤗
Your daughter is so adorable. ❤
Amazing! Closet cleaning is slated for my day off next weekend! Starting with the front closet! But I need to get to my cosmetics too!
Dollar Tree & a Branch. Legit.
I need to that under my kitchen and bathroom sinks.
It looks really good.
Your Dollar tree sure is more stocked than ours is. We don't have that large of sollection in our store for storage containers.
Oh the motivation this just gave me. Now I need will power to throw it all away! 😂❤️
You’ve inspired me! It’s off to the DT & time to clean & organize my bathroom.
I needed that video!
Your daughter is the sweetest and so beautiful 😍 I hope my 5 year old turns out as sweet as your girl 🥰🥰
That's something I have to get done. I need to go to DT to grab some bins for organizing the bathroom!!
Side note: Get a curved rod for the shower curtain (like in the fancy hotels)!! Target has them. It gives you so much extra space for singing and dancing!!
I'm so so jealous. My Dollar Tree looks nothing like yours. It a total mess with delivery carts in front of shelves, etc. Ugh. Glad you & your kids are able to organize. Looks fantastic! Be well.

Love the video. I wish my dollar tree would add the over the dollar stuff.
Ohhhh my word... I'm TOTALLY the same when it comes to the almost empty ANYTHING containers!! Makes me 🤪🤪💯!! I am guilty of random products hanging out without trying them, tried once or twice etc... I'll add tossing those to my long to do list. 👍
My grandmother called toiletries smelly things too 😊
Borax and washing soda get used every week in my laundry.
You should have kept the candles just in case of a power outage. Love this video!!

Hayley is the sweetest! That bathroom closet is huge compared to what I have. I’m so jealous! 🥰
I went to my "5 quarters" store yesterday and they had restocked the Kind Ice cream also. I bought every container of the almond/sea salt that my store had. SO SO SO GOOD!!!!! (And way cheaper then any other store.)
This was a great video. Very entertaining and soothing. Thank you
Hayley is so pretty and such a sweet young lady 💛
Yes confess!...I hate dusting!!! 5 quarter store, XD, love it!!!
Square containers usually work best space wise , uses the space more efficiently.
Great video! I’m so jealous of your large closets and amount of cabinets. I really think whoever built our house said “what is the least amount of storage areas we can put into a house” 😂

Baby powder makes great dry shampoo!
Love the organization videos you've been doing. It is definitely motivating me to do some organizing :)
I'm so glad!
Right?!? Also, the fact that its approachable organization...not idealistic pinterest/instagram perfect/ unattainable "organization".
When it comes to anything like shampoo, Laundry soap, hand soap, window cleaner, any product that cleans basically, donate it. Even if the area doesn't allow opened bottles to be sold, they often times can use it in house to reduce costs!
Loving the decluttering videos!
Oh my goodness Hayley has grown up so much!
I like the bins and baskets. I would have two towels per person personally but I agree I don't understand why people have so many extra towels
So much like my house;) Tfs…
Good job! It’s amazing what we find when we decluttering!
Great job, ladies!!
I use those blue baskets that she picked up and said we're flexible to organize stuff in my lazy susan rather than just sitting stuff in the lazy Susan.
