Here’s my newest video if you need more ideas! ruclips.net/video/-LEZqG15rF4/видео.html
To remove those stickers on plastic containers, take a hairdryer & heat the sticker & they after maybe 20 secs, they will pull right off
Also for labels, MakeID label maker is so Awesome❤️
Hi I’m from uk 🇬🇧 I like your videos must say we call it a junk draw ✍️ or something to throw your Shxt in 😂 lol I’m suprised that some people don’t call it junk even tho the stuffs useful, keep up with your useful videos they are great thanks 👍
Ps soapy water takes labels off effortlessly as well , also the hairdryer heat will either remove stickers or helps stick the sticky back paper on or off 👍
UV light exposure is why the clear rubber bands turned yellow. It is a chemical reaction as the UV light breaks them down. Clear glass may not be the best storage.
I had to smile and chuckle over your thoughts while going through your little ones. Deciding what to keep, donate, throw away, rethink, dealing with the emotions you feel, we all have felt. I am 72 and there were just a few items believe it or not, that I had to deal finally for the last time two years ago. I had a baby blanket my mom made. It didn’t look pretty, it was one of the first blankets my mom knitted when she was just learning to knit. Over the years there were times I felt guilty even thinking about throwing it away. My mom died in 2010 and my son is not sentimental nor is his wife. I finally did toss it and there are tears as I write and recall the moments. My son had a Raggedy Andy stuffed soft doll that he dragged around with him wherever he went. He got holes which my mom and I sewed to hold the stuffing from falling out. Occasionally I would pull it out to touch it, it was too dirty to display but I could never part with it. One day I mentioned it again to my son and he softly scolded me again for holding on to it, telling me how he sure would never want it. He was 50 at the time and I had to finally come to the understanding that he was right and I should get a “grip” and release it into the trash dumpster. I honestly wish I had just buried him. A year or so later I tossed the blanket. There are just some things that only a mother can understand. Now the continual mission of searching and locating missing socks made me chuckle. I remember my “friend”, the author, Erma Bombeck. Now she could write a whole chapter, AND probably did in one of her books. She ran a daily article in our local paper and there were times I would call my mother to read it to her, laughing so hard the tears would be rolling down my face. She helped get me through many of the teenage years and talking about her husband and the institution of marriage. She might have saved my marriage too, or at least made it a little easier getting through another day. My loving husband is 88 now, and our blended family met 46 years and we married 42 years ago. We have survived and lived through many things, including an ambulance ride where they were using paddles on him while he was going through a heart attack. Those blood clot busting meds they have work wonders and those balloons they install are nothing short of a miracle, AND believe it or not, my husband was just yesterday looking for one of those missing socks!! We lose track of how many grandchildren we have, it gets too complicated with the yours, theirs, and whose? so it’s easier to count great grandchildren! We have 3 of those! Unfortunately they are all scattered in 3 states and as far as we’re concerned, they live too far away! The important thing is that they are all happy and we all love each other very much. I enjoyed your videos and learned some tricks on organizing. It sounds like your home is filled with love. That’s the most important thing. May you have many more years of holding on to those items you cherish, and when you decide to toss something, take a picture of it so you can always look back on it with glassy eyes and a smile. ❤❤
Some of us just have to hold onto thing u til we’re sure we’re ready to let it go. There’s nothing wrong with that. Some people call us hoarders, but it’s not hoarding if it sentimental or really cool stuff 😊
@@MakeuplovecultureThere's always the memory box for very special items. I'm all for that, I guess keeping sentimental stuff just must not turn into an excuse to keep/hoard everything! That's why it's a memory box/bin and not a shed 😅 (I had a very hard time letting things go)
I had some very sentimental things and tried to pass them down but to my regret young people today just don't get it! I think they discarded it after a time I never saw them use the outfits which were expensive! Even to just take a photo of the next generation with that outfit on! Oh well! I should have kept them for myself! One was a beautifuf Christining outfit, never saw it again and of course they bought their own. I once heard them say they could never even wear jewerly from the past (or Dead person) That makes me sad since the pieces I offered where from Great Great Granmothers etc. Beautify pieces very expensive, even if they only kept a piece to sell if times got tough! But no thanks they don't want it! They don't cherish memories like we do!
Awww!!🥰🫶♥️🫶🥰 thank you for sharing and commenting here!! I felt what you said 😉🫶😉
A lovely touching sad story. You’re right. It’s a mom thing! Prayers and good thoughts for you and your entire family. ❤
Don’t listen to the junk drawer nay-sayers. I have an office and a garage and we still have a junk drawer in the kitchen. My bet is that most people have them than not.
Some people told me they have multiple junk drawers!! 🤣
Love everything
I think some people are against the term 'junk draw' because it encourages people to just leave literal junk there but I think most people do have this concept whether they call it junk draw, utility draw, miscellany draw, etc. Your 'junk draw' doesn't look like a 'junk draw' and you say you use the items all the time so I am sure it would classify more as a utility draw or miscellany draw for the junk draw nay-sayers.
I'm motivated.
Tomorrow I will conquer my kitchen.
I don’t like junk drawers because they stress me out and I can’t see what’s in them unless I actively go in there so might lose stuff. At the very least I don’t like it in the kitchen if we need to have one
But I have misc bins all over for us to throw things in until we can take time to go through them. Especially since my house is full of neurodivergent people lol we don’t always have the drive to put it away
Fantastic job! 👏👏👏👍💞
I'm a Grammy of 8 here! Momma of 5 grown kiddos. Ur so well organized! Makes everyday life go smoother 4 sure! 😉😉😉
Enjoy Ur baby boys, they All grow up way 2 fast! 💨 🥺
For those little button batteries put them in a old child proof medicine bottle that has had the label removed and cleaned. That way kiddos can’t swallow them.
That’s a great idea!
Survival of the fittest. If they swallow, they swallow.
I put shelf risers on top of cookie sheets/jellyroll pans to store things in deep under-counter cabinets. Then, when I need something to the back, I pull the tray out. This especially comes in handy with the bottom shelf.
I so admire the way you are so content even though you are in a smaller home than what you had. That is a lovely quality. You have made it very attractive and welcoming!
Everyone that I have ever known has had a junk drawer or two in their kitchen but you are right it is basically for things that you might need sometime, a screw, nail, batteries, or small flashlight
Haha same I thought everyone had one!!
Careful with batteries and nails. 9V batteries can start a fire
Use electrical/thick tape to cover the sides if it can't be stored separately
YES! Of course! Everyone should have a junk drawer!
You do an amazing job with your space and organization! My hat is off to you! I really doesn't look clutter except the normal things like the dreaded laundry! I have to say I really don't know where you could put another child but perhaps in the future that expansion of your house can take place, just 1 more kids bedroom would do fine! In a year or two your boys will be more independent giving you the time to take on another little one. Carson was a great age when Sutton was born. Prayers for the future and your decision to increase your family!
The "junk" drawer in my tiny place is only 5' wide lol I have always used peanut butter jar lids for the tiny things, and the tiny snack and craft containers from the dollar store work as well. The clear or semi-opaque lids from Bath and Body Works body sprays are great as well. My place is handicapped accessible, which means it has no cupboards or shelves below counter.
A five foot wide drawer?!
My cat Rascal was a Russian Blue and looked exactly like yours. He lived to be 17. I'm glad you kept repeating your boys name. When I see a cat like mine was I keep thinking of Rascal's name. It doesn't matter if they are male or female. It's just bc I miss Rascal so much. It's been 3yrs.
Hey guys! Hope you enjoy this organization marathon 🤗 don’t forget to subscribe if you’re new!! New organization videos weekly!
I added motion detecting LED strip lighting to my under sink cabinets and closets that don't have wired lights. I tend to return items to the correct spot (neatly) in my cabinets if I can see what I'm doing.
That’s a great idea!! We have those in our basement
Yeah, the junk drawer is just the utility drawer, so no biggie.
I had a miscarriage too and then we had our little miracle, then bc of Endo stage 4 I had to have a hysto and that was the end of our family plan. Bc of all this I had a really hard time getting rid of any of my son's things and tried to purge as much as I could, but I still had two huge bins in our garage of clothes at different ages up to the age of 6-7. I had finally decided to give them up and they were all in good selling condition. I also had a drawer at the bottom of his bed that was full of some of the pieces that I wanted to keep, his baby blankets, baby socks and shoes, some of clothes, and all the T-shirts that we had collected along the way and we were on the verge of making into a quilt for his HS grad present. Unfortunately all of it got ruined when Hurricane Harvey hit Houston and our house got hit with 4 feet of water. We were lucky to come out of it ok with our two cats, but the things that hurt the most to lose were my son's momentos, my parents' bible that they passed down, the bottom half of my scrapbook and jewelry workshop room that got washed away. I know things can be replaced, most of my kitchen and bath items were replaced, and some we didn't even need to replace, but my scrapbook and jewelry workshop items I had been collecting for over 15 yrs so some of them were irreplaceable.
Thanks for sharing all of your great ideas!!!
I really like how you remind us to do what is going to work for us and not worry about matching all the organizing bins. I also like seeing that you move stuff around multiple times during the process. I’m trying to get organized and I’ve been feeling like I’m spending too much time because I am moving and removing things. It will be great when I find the right place…. I just have to figure that out.

I'm jelly for all of your kitchen drawer space!
Just an idea you can store your extra makeup in your purses to get them out of your bathroom. I hung up hooks on inside of my bedroom closet door for my dressy purses i got clear vinyl makeup bags and separated makeup so all lipsticks together all eyeshadow and so on then place in the purses. This is perfect for makeup you don't use regularly and purses you dont use often. Make-up safe from steam and germs and more room in the bathroom. You can keep every day Make-up in bathroom or in your every day purse in a makeup bag.
YAY FOR JUNK DRAWERS!!! I have an office and a huge shed and I STILL have my junk drawer! I will always have a junk drawer or basket if I do not have enough drawers someday 👍😂❤️
This was such an inspirational video! Took me 4 days to watch it, but I got so much done during those 4 days! I decluttered, cleaned and organized all my bathroom cabinets, cleaned and organized my cleaning products closet and my small pantry, and I'm about to start cleaning my fridge! 😁
Thank you for the video and greetings from Finland! 🥰❤
Oh my gosh that’s some dedication watching over 4 days!! Thank you! I’m so glad I was able to motivate you to get things done
I love my junk drawer… I call it my quick, clean up every couple months. I go through an organize it, but in between it’s in the junk drawer. 😂😂Love my junk drawer
I LOVE that you have sugar cubes. They are so elegant when serving coffee or tea. Great job!!
Everybody who is Somebody has a junk drawer…..so there!
Can’t live without one!
👍🏼✅🙌🏼
Always have "junk drawers" in my kitchen !! I actually have 2 lol. I love this video. Such great ideas !!
Same! One has batteries, chargers, remotes and the other has tape measure, pens and pencils, a couple of different screw drivers, and other tools we use on an almost daily basis.
Great idea, putting the baking items with the bake ware 💗
I love that out-of-the-magazine look 👀 in my home. If something get out of place, I don’t freak out, but I do get things back in place QUICKLY!!!! That’s just ME!!😂
Everyone needs a junque drawer 💛💙💚
Agreed!
I think everyone has a junk drawer, even if they don’t call it that. Great job as always.
Agreed!
Thank you for addressing the infamous "junk drawer." Everyone has one! If they say they don't, they're in denial. The items aren't junk, they simply don't have dedicated homes.
This is the first time I've seen your channel, and I love it. We have similar thought processes.
Everyone has a drawer and I have a junk drawer also sweetie so no worries about those people that just have to be negative just ignore them lol you’re doing great
Don’t ever worry bout what people’s say . Because you can never please everyone. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing.😊
Tip for fridge: use a dry or wet erase marker on leftover container. If something has a date longer than 1 week ago, I don't even look or smell, I just toss it out and clean the container. Also, use permanent marker to write the date you open condiments. This happens a lot for me with broth. I open it, use half the container, then don't remember how long it's been in there.
Thank you so much for reiterating that the inside of your cupboards don’t have to look perfect and that everything doesn’t have to match… makes you seem more authentic! My kids are grown, but I wanted to let you know when they were little I had a separate cabinet in the kitchen. It was very narrow, I believe called a chimney chest and it contained a lot of the kids bowls cups etc. on the bottom shelves that they could reach and access themselves versus having to always ask mommy or getting on a stool. . I think we purchased it on the side of the road from Amish people and it is beautiful and has been such a great find.
Hold up a minute. This is the first time I'm watching a supposedly budget-friendly organization video which is actually budget friendly. Wow. I likey! Thanks a bunch
The under shelf spice holder is absolutely awesome! They can also be used to store snack bars!
Good afternoon Catherine Elaine. Great video as always - with superb production values...absolutely inspiring and motivating. Thanks for sharing. Your cleaning and organizational skills on a budget are absolutely impeccable. You really know how to get it done. That being said, don't forget to take some time for yourself during your busy day of cleaning and organizing. 😉👍
Thank you!
@@CatherineElaine You're quite welcome of course. 😊
I enjoyed your video. I like your "junk" drawer!
2:05:44 Go gurl!! Glad you're putting people in check!
Everything is so neat, I plan to try some of your ideas, my home is very small and I have too much junk. I do have aproublem, walking, can’t bend down on my knees,my back gives out quickly so I’m trying any ideas I can find. Thank you so much for sharing.👍👍♥️
This video brought me so much joy. Everything looks so …organized.😂 I think I’m ready to tackle my kitchen. Thanks for sharing. Blessed be!🙏🏿
Regarding labeling your stored cords, save the clips from your bread bags. They clip around the cods snugly and you can write on them with a sharpie
Looks great and like u say it’s for ur benefit and comfort!
Every person needs a “junk” drawer!!!❤
I call my junk drawer the drunk drawer 😂😂
Aw I feel you Kim, I don't think I'll ever feel like I'm doing enough🤦♀️🇮🇪🇮🇪
Thanks a lot. I declutter nearly all my flat. Need to clean now :)
I agree with you I have junk drawer but it’s all needed.i don’t have garage either .your doing a great job .😊
Lovely!
You’re doing a beautiful job! Great videos❤️Regarding the snarky viewer comment about too much makeup, they need to keep their rude comments to themselves. Their comments accomplish nothing but display how nasty they are. I’ve seen videos where women have large closets full of overflow makeup. Thanks for sharing so many wonderful helpful ideas! Great job!❤
Fantastic ideas and love the way you put it all together in a video - very comprehensible.
Beautiful technique of organizing.
Everyone has a junk drawer. Thanks for all the tips.
wow loved all the ideas and suggestions it looks fantastic thank you👍👍
Omg ! That lazy Susan is worth it. Love the back shield that keeps it all from falling out which is my current situation. My kitchen is tiny a nook really. I'm Italian and love to cook . So it's challenging but ty for so many great ideas .My bathroom is awful i bought an over the door shelf system that is really for a pantry and it helps alot as i dont even have a medical cabinet. I also purged and only buy as needed now.
Thank you so much for your video.
You can donate cleaning supplies at your local food pantry. Even if they are used😊
My mother had a junk draw my sisters and I have one lol. When my kids were looking for something I would say check the junk draw and there it was.
Girl, I am from Georgia so I have a junk drawer in my house and my office in our shop. Junk drawers are a must 😂😂😂
WOW Love everything it will help me
Great ideas
You do a really good job and you are so awesome, keep up the great work coolcat dan ❤
Will love seeing videos of you going into other peoples homes to help them get organized. I live in Oklahoma and would pay for an experienced organizer! ❤
I love this video. I had to subscribe. I loved so many ideas that you shared. ❤️
I have a junk drawer as well. Always had and always will! People will always have something to say. Anyways...enjoying your video!
Haha yes they sure will!! Thank you!
The junk drawer is pretty much a utility drawer. It's a drawer of useful items and things that may bot have a home yet. Every functional home has one.
Swanson chicken ala king canned great quick item from dollar tree.
Lady I don’t know you but you said something important do what works for you and your family . It doesn’t have to look like a magazine . Well said . It have to be practical for you and your family . 👏🏾 you real 💕
I think everyone has a junk drawer. I even have a garage and a office space and I have one 😂 Thank you for this I just moved from Texas (huge house) to Colorado Springs (smaller house) and this helps so much.
Haha yes it sounds like that’s the case!! I’ve had a lot of comments like that 🤣 but yay I’m so glad this helped!!
He I’lly🎉
Everyone has a junk drawer, they just don’t want to admit it!!! But then again they are perfect people remember! So…. If they are perfect why are they even watching! LOL love the one “cheese it on the floor”!!!! KIDS are Messy!!
Junk drawer regular term for me 😊 Thanks for your tips
I just want to say TFS Have a great day and week to you and your family 🙏👊👋
Thank you for watching 🤗
❤❤❤thank you sow much
Your video tips are the BEST EVER😂😂😂😂❤
Thank you 😊 ❤
These videos make me want to do the same thing
I haven’t found a cabinet door organizer that wouldn’t damage it or leave marks. Command Strips can cause damage! I made the mistake of thinking they don’t. So if you have super expensive custom cabinets, I’d not use those products. Hopefully if you have custom made, your cabinets have built in organization! 😊
I clean while organizing too. If I'm alrdy working on an area I'm not gonna half ass it lol
Haha yes! Exactly!
For your labels when peeling them off just heat with blow dryer and they come off super easy.
Yes good idea!
I love having a junk drawer lol❤
New subbie as of today
Thank you!!! Welcome!
Great job
Thank you!
Greetings from Poland :)
Great video - I think the magnet FYI for children was great I would add those pods underneath the sink might t be something to think about moving.. little friend s n come over .. anyway j hate telling people things = You're great - thank you
A Junk drawer is in most normal busy mom kitchens! I had a junk drawer 2.0 in my old house! 😂
@CatherineElain THANK YOU! I’m adding everything to my Amazon cart! I so NEEDED this I have the tiniest pantry ever! 😂 and I have almost no counter space in my kitchen so the paper towel holder and all the under shelf storage will change the game for me and my family. Can’t to get started! 💜🦋
A shelving system behind your toilet would be helpful
Very nice sharing zabdast new friend
Just wondering if anyone has ever tried lining refrigerator shelves and drawers with Glad Stick and Seal. I’m thinking it could be removed and shelves relined when time for clean up - saving steps (and energy) where possible. Maybe it’s a more appealing idea as I've gotten older and the “gymnastics” of this project is harder to perform.
I tried the press n seal, it didn't stick to the glass shelves. Maybe it's bcs they are cold. And yes it was gymnastics getting it in. I left it for now, but won't use it again 😢
@@ccdm515 that's a great idea, also $tree clear cutting mats.
I line my fridge shelves and drawers w Viva paper towel.looks great and absorbs spills..and extra moisture inbhumid summers.have also used those absorbent felt like cloths from homegoods.
Great video but you clearly have a large kitchen. My apartment has only 2 rather small drawers. I wish I could use some of your ideas, I just don’t have the space.
The size of my kitchen has nothing to do with the video itself, I’m just sharing ideas and you can take what works and leave what doesn’t.
Plastic yellows when the polymers react to either light or moisture. If you are keeping the elastics in a bright space or in natural light, start storing them somewhere darker. Or if the space has a lot of moisture like a bathroom keep them in an airtight container.
How ridiculous anyone would ever comment on a junk drawer!
I just don't understand what has happened to people?!?
I'm so jealous of your drawers...
I'm living in a retirement community and our apartment is a two room with a kitchenette.
I have One drawer! A few smaller cabinets, no stove and a tiny refrigerator!
I thought it would be great, because they serve food three times a day.
NOPE
The food is terrible
It's very unhealthy
It's terrible
So
I'm trying to cook without a kitchen!!!
It sucks
We're trying to move
Finding a place we can afford isn't going well 😰
Some things that have helped me is
I reuse containers for other things.
Like the large top from a cake purchased from a store, flip it over and you have a container!
I've made small garbage cans from thicker white paper bags from the pharmacy!! They are perfect for the bathroom and bedroom.. just put in a plastic bag... Boom it works... And no one has know lol
I did give in a bit box's with handles for the one deep cabinet because I just couldn't get stuff out of it!
I have a junk draw it needs to be sorted lol but sometimes I'll just clise and an other day Annmarie UK xx 😊
Hi Catherine, I was wondering where did you get the silicones liners that you have in you door bins. Great Videos I really enjoy them. Im about to get my kitchen redone an as your it is small so organization is the key. Thanks
I have only 2 drawers (both small) and I have a junk drawer. It has candles, light bulbs and corn on the cob holders in it right now. The other drawer has my cutlery in the front and plastic cutlery in the back of it. I use 3 plastic skinny baskets from the dollar tree because the drawers are so small width that no tray will fit! I have my small spoons with my coffee maker & accessories.
I think 9/10 homes have a junk drawer. Mine included. And I consider myself an organized person.
WHERE IS THE CANVAS PAN LID HOLDER? Sorry to yell. that is beautiful and useful
It came with my caraway pots and pans set!
You should make a video trying temu organization and seeing what they have and the prices and if you liked it or not.
I have small rooms and I use bandage options all of the time I rent
Yes, please
🙂
Hey Catherine! Long time follower here, love to see more videos from you now also on the second channel! :) is there another kitchen that you are organizing in the works already? Have a great day! 😊
I have plans for one, yes! Still trying to plan and coordinate it though!
