“That’s what she said” hahah channeling your Michael Scott haha!
2 года назад+56
For reference her name is Dana K. White and she wrote Decluttering at the speed of life and Organizing your home without loosing your mind. Both books worth reading, more than once.
I am a minimalist however I do have hobbies that require numerous items to engage in them (baking for example) and I felt that "Let me organize my stuff in peace" mood. Some people can so easily forget that everyone comes from a different place, nothing is one size fits all.
For the toilet brush, i keep my canister filled with pine sol (which I dump out and refill every once in a while. After I use the brush I flush a couple times and let the clean water rinse my brush off so that it's somewhat cleaner before placing back into the pine sol. I also pour a little bit of the pine sol into the toilet bowl when cleaning and it works amazingly! It smells so good, my brush/canister never even remotely smells bad, and no gross things grow on it since the pine sol is itself a cleaner =)
Yes I have 3 dogs that go up on the sofas, I bought those covers and they helped, but found I need to wash them weekly, sometimes mire often, it was headache, so what I use now in between washings is King or Queen size flat bedsheets,, they work great and I can fold them and store them under the sofa cushions for a quick change when needed. Ten once a week, I wash all the dog bedding, and sheets tigether,,tat was a game changer on keeping he smells gone. I buy them at thrift stores very cheap, and I can Chang the patter and color to fit my mood.
I live for a clean sink. I also like putting a few essential oil drops in my sink in the evenings after the kitchen is closed. Makes it smell great and feel fresh in the morning!
The “picking up and putting away part” is especially important, when coming home with the kids or with groceries. I have everyone take off their shoes, jackets, hats, mittens,… and put them to where they actually belong (prevents piles in the hall) plus I force myself to unpack all the groceries before sitting down or doing everything else. This way, when dinner time rolls around I am not unpleasantly surprised by piles of groceries lingering in the kitchen. It does take a LOT of discipline though…so to all the moms out there: have some grace with yourself, when your house is not picked up ALL the time. As Angie said: let’s aim for 80% :) Pareto Principle.
@@anahash3221 I used some in my fiberglass tub and my waterpik before realizing this. It etched the plastic on the waterpik and etched and discolored my tub. They are strong.
I keep things picked up, clean and always cleaning up my kitchen. Makes my days feel less chaotic. I am also very visually stimulated, so if my house if together... my brain feels more together :)
just a suggestion, toilet holders and brushes puts me off too so try the disposable ones u can buy from costco and sams, they are great u dispose off the disc after every use , just keep a container with water and rinse the plastic stick and put it back after drying with toilet paper and i dont have a container for it so i just put it in a plastic bag and that goes in my cabinet that i use only for cleaning my restroom and i have these sticks in multiples in every restroom cabinet and even one separate one that i use to clean my wash basins and shower when they need an extra scrub. I am on the lookout for a container so that i can keep it or hold it near the toilet seat.
I have 4 children & one pregnant maltipoo Dog and can’t keep anything at all tidy they make it their mission to mess stuff up. Theses tips are definitely needed. Thank you ❤
Yes, Shining my Sink is a game changer, not only how the kitchen looks, more importantly how I feel, it makes me smile when I see a clean sink in the morning,, great way to start the day! And throughout the day, I feel like cooking more when my sink and kitchen are clean.
I'm down with a chest infection at the moment and feeling dreadful with it. My house is a mess and it highlights how much I just go around picking up after everyone. I think I need to get my family on board with some of these tips
We had charcoal for our fish tank filter, I’ve put some of that in containers in our bin under the bin bag. Works a treat without covering one smell with another. Absorbs the smells
I keep falling behind in a message I want to convey. This is re heartfelt changes you want to make going forward re content and new phases in life you are entering especially re adopting and raising human beings. I have watched you since you started filming. I watched because you were such a bright light. And admired your skills to get things done, and frankly, all family members looked well taken care of. I watch 5 or 6 families because they raise my hopes that good people in all walks of life still exist. I am particularly pleased to see parents that are raising smart, well tempered, and good citizens. I also enjoy homesteaders, full time sailors, and animal lovers. You are a good person, a thoughtful person, like these others. And I love your kindness and forthrightness. You have much to share. I think your photography is a great way to keep us in touch with those great kids, if that is suitable. The design and look of your site and emails is like you, easy on the eyes.
I raised a family of 4 children. Picking things up as you go and putting them away where they go was my golden rule of survival. Once my husband and myself had to go out of town for a few days. I had an older single lady stay at my house while we were gone. The kids were all teenagers and knew when they had to be home and no friends. The next Monday I saw this lady at work. I asked her how it went. She said the kids were great, but they sure don't pick up after themselves. I replied oh great I at least I know you were at the right house. 😂
Bought the sofa protector and loved it so much I bought one for my daughter (she has 3 dogs)! She loved it and bought one for her sister! Such a life changer for all of us!
For laundry I just use 3 or 4 spoons of washing soda crystals and some drops of lemon or lavender essential oil. It does everything. No need for toxic laundry detergent, fragrance or softeners. Works a treat.
I’m 21 weeks pregnant with my second child and I needed this video for motivation today! I always try to do a deep clean around the house the weekend before any holiday and I was thinking of skipping this one time… but thanks to you… I already have the living room half finished, just vacuuming and mopping left in here now. And I’m feeling accomplished! I’m also going to try that essential oil trick on the toilet brush! NOW essential oils had a candy cane one from last Christmas that I hope they bring back this year because I LOVE my house to smell like candy canes and Christmas trees all of November and December!
hallelujah! love tips! and the one that for me that has made the most sense is the one that you touched on about putting stuff away not down. I have always told my kids and husband it doesn't take any longer to put something away where it belongs as it does to just set it down where you are. thanks for the tips! we are empty nesters now, but I have a husband that makes more messes then all 3 of my kids together did! xoxo
I don't have as many kids as you, I only have 5, but what really helps is no shoes on inside. With 7 of us it really helps! Also, i really dislike purses/bags on my kitchen counter and tables 🤢 Love the essential oil tips- thank you for great tips!! 👍
and i hate people bringing outside shoes on my main area rugs, it just annoys me , it can be vaccumed to remove dust and other particles but what annoys me is that those shoes go everywhere even public restrooms so its making rugs gross with all the filth.
Dana's first book, "Managing Your Home Without Losing Your Mind" was the one thing that helped me SO much. I read her blog before that. Her decluttering book, while also great, is a lot of things from the first book, repeated. But without everything from the first book, and delves so much deeper into actually decluttering.. She has a podcast too (a slob comes clean), where she goes over all of the things. She's my hero lol took my house from crazy pants to calm. ☺️
I was thinking the same .., I do wish she had said who the author was … to give them credit .. but does sound like Dana k white … I can hear her in my head saying her take it ther now x
Synthetic Scented laundry has become so incredibly toxic. The number of people that get sick from it is growing so fast. I can't even visit in anyone's home anymore, and thrifted clothing is almost impossible. In the last 5 years I have found that even washing scented clothes 10 times, does not budge the scent.
I’m with you on that…. Too many scents added to everything. I like my scented laundry detergent because it’s subtle… but not oils in everything or adding scent beads
It’s horrible! I’m still trying to figure out a wash that will get rid of the smell from my Goodwill clothes, I have 4 boys that go through jeans like popsicles, I hate scented anything, I could get a headache just walking by the candles section…
Have you tried borax to get smells out? I think it's decent. Also I found Molly's Suds laundry "detergent" to be truly unscented. It's just minerals that clean your clothes. Even tide free and clear has a chemical smell 😬....
@Lydia Clayton I have, but it's not the best process for some fabrics, especially the gently used high end hunting gear my husband got for a song. 10 washes and 2 months on the clothesline thru several rainstorms with no change.
At 7:00 when you were talking about the brush? In our house I call it "OHIO" = Only Handle It Once. I've also followed FlyLady off and on over the years. I've FINALLY got my husband shining the sink!
Oh my gosh I've been wanting a vacuum tool to assist me with grooming Finlee my English cream golden retriever. The shedding with this wonderful breed is real! Thanks!
Great tips, especially about piles. Thats me!! Unfortunately. We use covers made from fleece fabric for our furniture. When it gets dirty, you just whip it off and wash it, dry it, no ironing. Saves wear and tear on the upholstery. Also cozy in the winter.
Great tips! I can’t believe you have 8 kids. You look amazing!! I love your witty personality!!!Your home is beautiful. Maybe you could show us some dinner meal ideas that you make? More videos like the redo of the girls room!
A great advice for the bin.I use essential oil in the burner and candles in my kitchen . I have a lemon scent sanitized near the bin. Clean as you go. Im the same put it where it stays. I tell my 3 kids
We only have 1 kid and these tips are still epic. Why? 1. We also have 2 cats and a dog. 2. We live in the brother at where it rains a lot which means dirt dirt dirt. 3. So many of these are applicable even for single people! Really enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing.
I’m right there with you...somewhere between a museum and horder! I settle on “we live here and it’s going to look like we live here, but I want it to be clean enough so that we want to live here.”
Two things I live by, leave it better than I found it and what’s in this room that needs to go where I’m going and I take it with me. I got the last one from my years in the service industry, no empty hands. 😅
We have 8 kids and we definitely can't leave the mess all day ; we do several pickups a day too. It's funny how many disclaimers you feel you need to make as if it's not normal to have to deal withreal life beings who make messes and live in a world that tends towards entropy!
I keep a plastic packet in my freezer and throw all meat wrappers vegetables peels basically anything that makes ur trash can smell. Then when it is the day the bin trucks come i throw it in the bin.
I've got a sink full of dishes, and I keep putting it off. My dishwasher failed and I've got those dishes to do too. I must get them done! The scent beads are so bad for the environment, but they smell so good! I have to stop myself from using them.
Hi Angela. Happy Holidays. I really glad you showed your dog and the Neabot Pet Vacuum. I have a Great Pyrenees. He's 115lbs. Wil the Vacuum handle that large or a dog or are you finding you have to keep emptying it out?
Soon to have a house Of 10 too and that is why I buy ikea furniture as the entire cover comes off, not only on the cushions but the arms, back etc for washing in the machine. And it dries fast! I do it after the kids go to bed and it’s on by morning and ready to go and take another beating😂 but we live on a farm too and our animals are everywhere. It’s fun but ya…farm smells haha. Gonna put some oils in my toilet brush holder and bottom of trash can so thanks for that tip!
I too have that picky nose. My husband calls me a human bloodhound. Lol my kids are 30 and 26 and I’ve been FlyLady since they were tiny guys. The sink, toilet, and clean bedding make my life so much easier.
Just had a flashback to the “old house” when Benji got hold of the toilet brush after one the boys had replaced without cleaning it and little Benji dragged it around your bedroom floor and bedding 😂😂 the absolute horror on your face. I can honestly say I was crying with laughter. Those where the days 😊
This is great! Is your big white floof a great pyrenees?? I too have a 120lb white polar bear child, along with a few human teens :) the home grooming kit and furniture ideas are super helpful!
Great tips! I would love to know how to scent laundry with essentials rather than commercially prepared mixtures. Since having cancer at 40, I avoid toxins as much as possible. ❤
I have 3 indoor cats and I am super ocd and keep up light cleaning everyday. I have bought every kind of candle and plug ins and all the stuff. I PROMISE you that candle wax warmers and cubes (and again I have bought the wax cubes from so many places-the more expensive I’ve found the less effective and no throw). Go to Walmart and buy a few wax cube warmers-the $10 store brand work perfect but you want a few depending on the size of your house and if it’s two story. I have 2 upstairs and 2.5 downstairs (ones a small wall plug in warmer) and the BEST cubes are at Walmart for $2 for six cubes and ONLY ones worth while is Better Homes and Gardens. I only use the cubes once but some people will use them two days in a row. SO MUCH THROW and far better than any candle. I can’t emphasize that I’ve done it all and they’re the best way to make the house smell amazing and no flame to worry about either with littles and pets and forgetting to put it out👍🏻
Dogs hair is the issue in our house. I have two dark grey thin blankets that match the couch/sofa and I swap them out amd wash them regularly. I also spray with fabric spray. Don’t forget to empty fur out of washing machine filters or you end up with issues there.
I have a newborn and was just thinking this morning about how I am going to manage keeping things so clean with our 6 pets. I see pet hair on her things and it gives me anxiety. I was needing this video today. ◡̈
When I started watching your videos my immediate thought was "This woman is a saint!" You are so calm and honest and have 8 kids! Inspirational.
"Between hoarders and museum" 😂❤ I can remember that. Thank you!
“That’s what she said” hahah channeling your Michael Scott haha!
For reference her name is Dana K. White and she wrote Decluttering at the speed of life and Organizing your home without loosing your mind. Both books worth reading, more than once.
Yes. It's called
*"Don't put it down, put it away!"*
Thank you Dana! ♡
The box is called "donatable donationbox"!! 😁
Yes I was hoping she’d give credit to Dana. Her method is 👌👌
Where would I look for this first?!
Dishes math!
All of the things Dana says have had a huge impact on my life.
@@Melshed
Yes! Giving credit where credit is due ❤️
@@Melshed yes. Kind of disapointed she didnt. Her whole method is just life changing and she deserves the recognition
Can I just say that I love that you are NOT ultra minimalist?
“Let me organized my stuff in peace! Thank you.”
Love it!!! Right there with you 💕💕
I am a minimalist however I do have hobbies that require numerous items to engage in them (baking for example) and I felt that "Let me organize my stuff in peace" mood. Some people can so easily forget that everyone comes from a different place, nothing is one size fits all.

Saw Ashleigh's post, sorry for your family's loss. Prayers for comfort and peace for all.
"Well, lady.. This is my life...and I've got the stuff that I've got" hahah love this quote🥰
Love these tips!
Side note: Essential oils can slowly break down plastics, especially citrus oils. (Chemists wife)
I was thinking the same
can u please explain further, like what kind of plastic and what does it break down to???
@@anahash3221 I used some in my fiberglass tub and my waterpik before realizing this. It etched the plastic on the waterpik and etched and discolored my tub. They are strong.
I keep things picked up, clean and always cleaning up my kitchen. Makes my days feel less chaotic. I am also very visually stimulated, so if my house if together... my brain feels more together :)
Im the same

"Your house isn't going to smell like a brothel." Classic. I laughed so loud my husband stuck his head in to check on me. 😆
You have 8 kids?!? Woah. God bless you!
I have 4 children & one pregnant maltipoo Dog and can’t keep anything at all tidy they make it their mission to mess stuff up.

I hope you feel better soon. You could end up with a new life from this discovery!
We had charcoal for our fish tank filter, I’ve put some of that in containers in our bin under the bin bag. Works a treat without covering one smell with another. Absorbs the smells
Charcoal can be reinvigorated by sitting it in the sun, so it's reusable and not landfilling.
Love Dana K White. Take it there now

Not wearing shoes in doors is a game changer. So much cleaner.
Was the book you read Decluttering At The Speed of Life? Dana K White. By far the best book about decluttering I’ve EVER read. It’s totally helped.
I feel like that is the book. I listened to it and it is the best decluttering book I’ve read by far!!
I was wondering the same thing! I love her and Dawn from the Minimal Mom!
I love her!
Dana's first book, "Managing Your Home Without Losing Your Mind" was the one thing that helped me SO much. I read her blog before that.
Her decluttering book, while also great, is a lot of things from the first book, repeated. But without everything from the first book, and delves so much deeper into actually decluttering..

Have you tried borax to get smells out? I think it's decent. Also I found Molly's Suds laundry "detergent" to be truly unscented. It's just minerals that clean your clothes. Even tide free and clear has a chemical smell 😬....
@Lydia Clayton I have, but it's not the best process for some fabrics, especially the gently used high end hunting gear my husband got for a song. 10 washes and 2 months on the clothesline thru several rainstorms with no change.

I finally broke down and bought the beach scent! Thank you, I'm a mama of 6 and lots of farm animals
Incorporated most of these ideas. Life changers ❤thank you for sharing
Oh my gosh I've been wanting a vacuum tool to assist me with grooming Finlee my English cream golden retriever. The shedding with this wonderful breed is real! Thanks!
Woot woot- you mentioned Flylady the OG! Her methods, tips and teachings are great for side tracked homemakers 👋
Love the ceiling book shelf
Great tips, especially about piles. Thats me!! Unfortunately.
We use covers made from fleece fabric for our furniture. When it gets dirty, you just whip it off and wash it, dry it, no ironing. Saves wear and tear on the upholstery. Also cozy in the winter.
Great tips! I can’t believe you have 8 kids. You look amazing!! I love your witty personality!!!Your home is beautiful. Maybe you could show us some dinner meal ideas that you make? More videos like the redo of the girls room!
“That’s what she said”
That killed me 😂
A great advice for the bin.I use essential oil in the burner and candles in my kitchen . I have a lemon scent sanitized near the bin. Clean as you go. Im the same put it where it stays. I tell my 3 kids
Look for the Downy rainforest scent beads! Amazing
We only have 1 kid and these tips are still epic. Why? 1. We also have 2 cats and a dog. 2. We live in the brother at where it rains a lot which means dirt dirt dirt. 3. So many of these are applicable even for single people!
Really enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing.
I’m right there with you...somewhere between a museum and horder! I settle on “we live here and it’s going to look like we live here, but I want it to be clean enough so that we want to live here.”
I use inexpensive quilts and blankets on all my sofas, it's easy to find colors that match.
Haha! Yes, to the nose! That was my first pregnancy symptom with my 3rd that made me go buy a pregnancy test. Love the tips!
Girl… I need links to all your rugs. They’re all so different and colorful. I need more color in my life 😍
My greatest wish: a Christmas planning video like last year, loved it so much!🥰
Just rewatched all the videos.
Two things I live by, leave it better than I found it and what’s in this room that needs to go where I’m going and I take it with me. I got the last one from my years in the service industry, no empty hands. 😅
I do pine sol in my garbage bin and toilet brush thing. It kills the bacteria and smells so nice!
We have 8 kids and we definitely can't leave the mess all day ; we do several pickups a day too.
It's funny how many disclaimers you feel you need to make as if it's not normal to have to deal withreal life beings who make messes and live in a world that tends towards entropy!
I keep a plastic packet in my freezer and throw all meat wrappers vegetables peels basically anything that makes ur trash can smell. Then when it is the day the bin trucks come i throw it in the bin.
I do the same especially in Summer!
Do you have a link for the lid organizer for pots n pans?? Mine have been bothering me forever!
I want a link too!
Hi, what is the book that said tip #5 “put it away”? Thank you!
I just stopped the video and went to the bathroom and put some essential oil on that bathroom brush ✌️ great idea!
I've got a sink full of dishes, and I keep putting it off. My dishwasher failed and I've got those dishes to do too. I must get them done!
The scent beads are so bad for the environment, but they smell so good! I have to stop myself from using them.
Hi Angela.
Happy Holidays.
I really glad you showed your dog and the Neabot Pet Vacuum.
I have a Great Pyrenees. He's 115lbs.
Wil the Vacuum handle that large or a dog or are you finding you have to keep emptying it out?
I try to follow the "touch it only once" philosophy to try and keep things tidy!
That’s such a rad kitchen sink! I’ve never seen it before I don’t think 🤔
I was thinking the same thing!! what is that small middle sink for??
Very helpful tips! I only have 3 boys, but I feel like there are 10 in the house! Thank you
Soon to have a house Of 10 too and that is why I buy ikea furniture as the entire cover comes off, not only on the cushions but the arms, back etc for washing in the machine. And it dries fast! I do it after the kids go to bed and it’s on by morning and ready to go and take another beating😂 but we live on a farm too and our animals are everywhere. It’s fun but ya…farm smells haha. Gonna put some oils in my toilet brush holder and bottom of trash can so thanks for that tip!
I *love* (!) your dry humour. ☆
Lots of great tips. Thank you
Sofa protectors = game changer! Makes my life so much easier & I’m much more relaxed.
I really enjoy watching you, you are down to earth and funny!
Oh how I needed this today!! ❤
I too have that picky nose. My husband calls me a human bloodhound. Lol my kids are 30 and 26 and I’ve been FlyLady since they were tiny guys. The sink, toilet, and clean bedding make my life so much easier.
I bought that pet grooming vaccum during the Amazon prime deal. It really works!!
I'm first! So happy to see a video from you! 💐
Just had a flashback to the “old house” when Benji got hold of the toilet brush after one the boys had replaced without cleaning it and little Benji dragged it around your bedroom floor and bedding 😂😂 the absolute horror on your face. I can honestly say I was crying with laughter. Those where the days 😊
That dog grooming vacuum is life changing I have 2 German shepherds and the hair is insane!!
I'm crying with the toilet brush, IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW! 😂
I saw a tiktok for somebody with adhd "don't put it down. Put it away." I use that all the time now
Where is a link for the sofa protectors?
This is great! Is your big white floof a great pyrenees?? I too have a 120lb white polar bear child, along with a few human teens :) the home grooming kit and furniture ideas are super helpful!
Yes, it is!
Enjoyed these tips very much and thank you for keeping it real. Life happens.
Clorox toilet wand is a game changer!
Great tips! I would love to know how to scent laundry with essentials rather than commercially prepared mixtures. Since having cancer at 40, I avoid toxins as much as possible. ❤
What's the name of the book you read? I love books and I'm interested in the one you referenced. 📚
The tips she’s sharing sound like Dana K White from A slob comes clean. She’s got several books. They’re really great especially on audiobook.
I love your attitude, -this is it, we can make it as pleasant as possible!
I have 3 indoor cats and I am super ocd and keep up light cleaning everyday. I have bought every kind of candle and plug ins and all the stuff. I PROMISE you that candle wax warmers and cubes (and again I have bought the wax cubes from so many places-the more expensive I’ve found the less effective and no throw). Go to Walmart and buy a few wax cube warmers-the $10 store brand work perfect but you want a few depending on the size of your house and if it’s two story. I have 2 upstairs and 2.5 downstairs (ones a small wall plug in warmer) and the BEST cubes are at Walmart for $2 for six cubes and ONLY ones worth while is Better Homes and Gardens. I only use the cubes once but some people will use them two days in a row. SO MUCH THROW and far better than any candle. I can’t emphasize that I’ve done it all and they’re the best way to make the house smell amazing and no flame to worry about either with littles and pets and forgetting to put it out👍🏻
What ?!?! The pet thing is amazing - it’s now part of my Christmas list thanks 😁
As an owner of a big dog (alongside toddler) I agree about grooming & sofa cover - savers for sure !!
Great vide o - thanks!
Helpful ideas. Thanks, Angela!
Glad it was helpful!
Clorox toilet wand has changed my life!!!!
Great tips! We have 3 kids, and we are always home. It's hared to keep up!
Dogs hair is the issue in our house. I have two dark grey thin blankets that match the couch/sofa and I swap them out amd wash them regularly. I also spray with fabric spray. Don’t forget to empty fur out of washing machine filters or you end up with issues there.
Great tip!
I love the intro 😂 smell like u have children and pets 😂 that’s a stunner ❤
Tip number 5 sounds like a Dana K White tip.
Do you have a link to the sofa protector you use? ❤️
I have a newborn and was just thinking this morning about how I am going to manage keeping things so clean with our 6 pets. I see pet hair on her things and it gives me anxiety. I was needing this video today. ◡̈
Constantly fighting the kid/pet stink. So thank you for this video lol
Enjoyed.
"You take this tool, and vacuum your pet." lol

Not sure if I missed it, but may I ask what the book is called? For tidying up?
