Put your gift wrap supplies on the top shelf out of sight since this is not used daily. Keep all the boxes for games. You can resale them them much easier, and I think it is more pleasing to the eye and also easier for your kids to choose than to use those plastic containers. Also, the games are better stacked horizontally. That way, the pieces don't fall out or get messed up on the inside.
My mom kept the gift bags in a box. It made it very easy to flip through. Small bags in the front. Largest in the back. Worked for us. Great job working in your home!
Try getting a wrapping paper storage organizer! That’s what I have for our wrapping paper, tissue paper and gift bags! It would probably fit right on the shelf you have it on now to even an over the door hanger kind!
It's 9.23 pm here in Spain and I want to declutter right now 3 drawers of my kitchen. My husband is looking at me like 🤔🤔 hahaha. I don't keep bags or present papers or tissue paper, all goes to recycle bins. Big kiss and happy 2024.
For an inexpensive fix for your gift bags - chose a larger size & store all the other bags inside...you could even categorize them by holiday if you want to get that particular.
the DUVET COVER! If nobody has told you yet, I'm about to make your day! I used to do it just like you. Such a pain. Then a cleaning lady taught me: Lay out your duvet. Turn the cover INSIDE OUT. Then put your arms INSIDE the cover and reach all the way until you find and grab the two FAR CORNERS. Now hold the corners as you also grab two corners of the duvet. (So now you have a corner of duvet and a corner of cover in each hand) Now hold on for DEAR LIFE and shake shake shake until the cover turns rightside out. Now you'll only have to straighten out one short end. LIFE CHANGING 😁😁😁😁😁😁
Wait, what, not everyone is doing it this way? I live in Germany and every mother teaches this to their children and for once in my life I feel ahead of other countries 😅😅😅
For the gift bags I kinda have a closet like that and what I do is get the hangers with the clips and sort them in categories like birthday anniversary baby shower and clip them other with the clips on the hanger and hang them or you can even throw them over the hook on the hanger and do it that way … with the clips they lay flat and not as bulky .
So happy for your family going to Disney! I haven’t been in ages! I store by gift bags and tissue in a big paper bag with handles. It’s still easy enough to thumb through to find a bag you want. 😊
I also started decluttering my kitchen cabinets and drawers. Only gave away few things because last year I gave so much away. I plan on decluttering my bathroom closet and under the sink. Thank you for the motivation!😊
Hi aleah 🎉 Am so excited for you. You're going to have a great time. Happy for you guys that are taking time with the family. Take lots of pictures we want to see 😊 have a great week
Your duvet is quite big so I'm not sure if this would work, but I turn the duvet cover around, put my hands in to the farthes corners, grab two duvet corners and flip the cover over. Hopefully it makes sense and you find it useful. Have a nice day :)
You could try storing the gift bags the same way that they do in the store. Hanging them up the possibility’s of what to use are endless. I have a pants hanger with four hanging rods on it , lots of room to store multiple kinds of bags.
I hope that you and your family enjoy your trip to Disney! Thank you for an amazing cleaning motivational video! I hope that you and your family have a wonderful new year ❤
I store my gift bags in a tote. I have one for Christmas and another for all other occasions. I put them together in size categories the large ones I fold in half they all fit great. You have a lot of tissue to manage I found I keep one bag full and throw away the rest it’s a cheap replacement if need more
I have one of those longer bins on wheels that could go in your closet or under your bed. That is my decorating short long bin that I keep wrapping paper, tape, scissors, tags, bows etc. boxes and bags too.
Hey, if you put your duvet cover inside out then hold the to two corners of it with the top two corners of your duvet then just flip it over onto itself it goes on much easier x
I use Target baskets, the ones with the rounded tops, for my gift bags. One for Christmas bags, and one for other bags. I keep the containers in the top of my coat closet with a third container for winter scarves. Three containers fit the top shelf perfectly. I have tried so many different things, and this works the best for me. I don't like hauling out an organizer for gift wrap. Also, I have a tall skinny box for gift wrap in the bottom of the same closet. If I have more than this system will hold, I need to get rid of something. I just don't want to give up major space in my house for it.
hiiii, OMG I share the overwhelming feeling when the mess is so much that one just doesn't know how to start. That was me and it took me several days to get a catch it all room to finally get organised. Disney!!! what a wonderful trip to look forward to!
The easiest way to insert your duvet is to lay the cover out on your bed inside out. Then lay the duvet on top and button/tie it to the cover, then flip it inside out starting at the bottom.
I have seen so many junk drawers on RUclips, but I was past 40 years old before I saw one in real life. I have spesific areas for the things usually in those drawers. Just wanted to mention it. I alwaysnwantntomsay something when people say: "we all..." 😉This time, I actually did. I love decluttering and organising videos. 😊
Happy New year. Everyone is getting so big. They way you put on your duvet is the same way I put on mine and I’ve found that it’s fast and easy that way. The only issue that I have now is a possible torn rotator cuff, so shaking the covers are painful…
This video came out at the perfect time - my wife and I are in an organising mood and have been decluttering the whole house so this was a good one to have on the TV tonight! Thanks for another awesome video, Aleah! ❤
I always ask myself this question, if I have a junk drawer in my kitchen where I keep a lot of office supplies, why do I also have a office? Why keep a huge supply of pens in the kitchen drawer? Take out half and store in the office. Some times you have to keep in mind the purpose of the room. Is it a kitchen or an office? And limit stuff to that purpose.😉
I so badly want to clean along wirh you like I do EVERY SINGLE Friday but, I just had a Nevro Spinal Stimulator trail and permanent implant next week. I have restrictions for 4-6 weeks. On the flip this could be life changing for my pain levels and then I could get my channel more consistent 😊
Happy new year from UK, when I wash my bedding I change it to new clean bedding straight away don't wait for it to wash then dry. As my bedding is king size I don't put my duvet in the cover I put cover then duvet on top with blankets.
@@AleahMartins it's so much easier. Replace right away so you don't end up trying to go to bed and facepalm because you forgot to grab them from the dryer and make the bed, then realise they didn't fully dry so you now have to wait on them.
lol those new cartons at bath and body works - went there a few wks ago and my Daughter thought it was milk hahahaha😂 She goes why are they selling milk here? She’s 8 hah! Everyone laughed and even the worker did too!😊
I’m in the process of decluttering my kitchen but it’s so hard because it’s a tiny apartment kitchen that I’m already utilizing every single possible space. So I trying to go to minimal but I also know there are things I will regret getting rid of. Also, your puppy is so stinking adorable! I’d love to know what kind of dog he is, it was kind of hard to tell in the video without a longer direct view of him. He looks like he has Great Dane or mastiff in him.

For your gift bags: a file folder system? That way you can flip through them. You could do this by season, event, size, etc. or all of the above!
Try getting a wrapping paper storage organizer! That’s what I have for our wrapping paper, tissue paper and gift bags! It would probably fit right on the shelf you have it on now to even an over the door hanger kind!

I hope y’all have SO much fun at Disney!!! I’ve never been before but would love to go when it’s decorated for Christmas!!! ❤
Thank you, we are so excited and CANNOT WAIT!! Christmas time would be amazing, or Halloween 😍
I had to chuckle at the 42 pens you left in junk drawer!
Oh man, there was a ridiculous amount. I ended up sending half of them with my husband to work 🤣
the DUVET COVER! If nobody has told you yet, I'm about to make your day! I used to do it just like you. Such a pain. Then a cleaning lady taught me: Lay out your duvet. Turn the cover INSIDE OUT.

For the gift bags I use a large container and put it on the bottom of my closet and group then by category. That way they stay nice and organized.

How about a large clear rectangular bin or box to store the gift bags vertically? You could sort them by size if required.
Or, just keeping the gift bags. You buy a bin. That’s not declutterring. That’s adding to the problem, not the solution.
I think this would be a good way to clean them up!!
You could try storing the gift bags the same way that they do in the store. Hanging them up the possibility’s of what to use are endless. I have a pants hanger with four hanging rods on it , lots of room to store multiple kinds of bags.

My husband and I went to Disneyworld 20 years ago. It's just so much fun. I hope you have a wonderful trip
We are so excited! Thank you so much. I can’t wait ❤️
We have a low profile rectangular bin from dollar tree that holds all our gift supplies! Bags, tissue paper, cards, bows!
I am definitely grabbing one like that. It will make it look so much more organized!!
How were you able to clean the rooms with the dog? He was so hilarious.
Hey, if you put your duvet cover inside out then hold the to two corners of it with the top two corners of your duvet then just flip it over onto itself it goes on much easier x
For the gift bags, what about one of those drop down hangers that are space saving in the wardrobe? You could hang the bags in size category 🤔
I store all of my gift bags in a milk crate in a closet. They are easy to flip through & find what I need.
Hi Aleah I hope you and your family have a wonderful time in Disney . Thanks for another great video and all the motivation!
For the gift bags in the cupboard- put hooks on the inside of the doors & hang them up
Great video, Aleah.Your game closet looks great.
Thank you!! I hope your having a great start to your new year ❤️

We don’t have Target in Canada 😭🥲
But I will look to see if I can find a similar option!
I must be a weirdo, I keep like 2 gift bags! My small supply of wrapping paper is in a shallow container that zips. I have it under guest bed.
No weird at all! I just keep all the gift bags we have received over the years. I don’t think I have ever purchased one myself 😅
@@AleahMartins Do the kids not get into them?
I just buy one when I buy the card as needed. Not willing to store a million bags!
Thank you for posting this. I used it for working along in house work.
hiiii, OMG I share the overwhelming feeling when the mess is so much that one just doesn't know how to start. That was me and it took me several days to get a catch it all room to finally get organised.
Disney!!! what a wonderful trip to look forward to!
We are so excited and cannot wait to go!
Thank you so much for watching! I’m glad I’m not the only one feeling the urge to get rid of everything 🤣❤️
The easiest way to insert your duvet is to lay the cover out on your bed inside out. Then lay the duvet on top and button/tie it to the cover, then flip it inside out starting at the bottom.
fire extinguisher, flashlight, batteries, backup phone charger, extra food/water, first aid kit

Yay! I’m so glad, thank you both so much for watching 🥰
I hope you got an area tackled ❤️
Happy new year!
Same to you!! 🤗
My daughter and I were in Disneyland in Paris last summer and enjoyed it to the max.
So much fun! 😍
I would store all the gift bags in a clear bin at the bottom so you can still see what you have and easy to get to.
Great video Aleah ❤ I hear you’re getting some -40 weather out there. Stay warm ❤️❤️
Thanks Aleah, really enjoyed the deck uttering video best wishes from New Zealand. ❤️💜
Nice video. I keep most of my bags and tissue paper in a long gift box container. It came from Amazon.
I always ask myself this question, if I have a junk drawer in my kitchen where I keep a lot of office supplies, why do I also have a office?
Why keep a huge supply of pens in the kitchen drawer?
Take out half and store in the office.
Some times you have to keep in mind the purpose of the room.
Is it a kitchen or an office?
And limit stuff to that purpose.😉
I so badly want to clean along wirh you like I do EVERY SINGLE Friday but, I just had a Nevro Spinal Stimulator trail and permanent implant next week. I have restrictions for 4-6 weeks.
On the flip this could be life changing for my pain levels and then I could get my channel more consistent 😊
Oh wow! Sending you so much love for your implant surgery next week. ❤️
I hope it is life changing for you! Please let me know how it all goes ❤️❤️❤️
I have three sets of bedding I do the rolling method as it’s king size it hard work doing it any other way.❤❤love your videos.❤❤❤❤
With the party bags put all of the smaller ones in the biggest bag you have ☺️
Hi Aleah would you ever think of painting your kitchen cupboards another colour a make over ? X
I want to paint them white SO badly!! I’m hoping to maybe get them done this year 🤗
@@AleahMartins would look so bright and fresh 😍 love your channel x
Your fomal dining room looks so much better and clean now. ❤❤❤❤ Nina in USA
Yes! It’s coming along! I am trying to find a hutch and some decor for the back wall. That’s my goal for the year ❤️
I was given a gift basket for Christmas and I used the basket to organize my gift bags like files. Hope this helps
Great job
Happy new year from UK, when I wash my bedding I change it to new clean bedding straight away don't wait for it to wash then dry. As my bedding is king size I don't put my duvet in the cover I put cover then duvet on top with blankets.
I really need to get a second set of bedding! So much easier 😅
@@AleahMartins it will be,I have about 6 different designs.
So smart! I will definitely be getting another set.
@@AleahMartins it's so much easier. Replace right away so you don't end up trying to go to bed and facepalm because you forgot to grab them from the dryer and make the bed, then realise they didn't fully dry so you now have to wait on them.
I believe there is a rolling method to put duvet covers back on! Great video as always!💗
I need to give that another shot. I have tried it in the past and I was too impatient when I didn’t get it the first time 🤣
@@AleahMartins 😂💗
I have a tall kitchen garbage can..holds wrapping paper and bags
I keep gift bags and tissue papers in a large gift bag.
Amazon sell wrapping paper/gift bag storage 😊 x
lol those new cartons at bath and body works - went there a few wks ago and my
Daughter thought it was milk hahahaha😂
She goes why are they selling milk here? She’s 8 hah! Everyone laughed and even the worker did too!😊
Just pick different seasons and store your gift bags and that season of a bag.
Oh yes I agree with that
Love Your Dogs 🐶
So cool that you are from Canada! I am in Alberta.
No way! Where in Alberta are you? I’m an Alberta girl too! 🤗
I’d just get a long plastic container from Walmart and put those gift bags in and a smaller container for the paper
Yes! I think this would be a good way to just make it look “nicer”
Love your videos ! I wanted to ask , are you originally from Canada?
Hi! Yes I am! I am in Alberta ❤️
Do you have family in the states ?
I’m in the process of decluttering my kitchen but it’s so hard because it’s a tiny apartment kitchen that I’m already utilizing every single possible space.

He is a mastiff! A Boerboel, which is a South African mastiff 🤗🤗 thank you so much!!
I know the breed, very cool dogs.
@@BullyBreeds4Life Thank you! He's such a sweetie!
Get a small to medium under the bed box
Oh my 😂 you have pens for a life time
HAHA 🤣💀 I knoooow. My husband keeps accidentally bringing them home in his pockets from work. I made him take a huge bag back 😅
Hopefully you kept everything you wanted to keep
My mom keeps gift bags in a under bed tote in her guest room. So it’s all laid out but out of site
Good idea!!
Great Video ❤
Thank you so much for watching!
💖💖💖
Love getting rid of anything and everything 😂
Yessss! I just feel like we have wayyyyy to much.
❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Never noticed you wearing earrings. They look great
Thank you! I’m trying to remember to wear more jewelry ❤️ since I work from home, it’s easy to forget that I can still dress nice 😅
@AleahMartins I took notice enough that I, too, must do the same. Thanks for the incentive.
Hey❤
❤️🙏❤️🙏
I hear you, I refuse to buy Duvets.
We have the same washer and dryer 😂
They are great! Ours are going 12 years old! 🤯
U should use glass. It’s much healthier
For the containers? We do have glass ones too, but I agree!
Love ur channel does ur dog like to bite at the vacuum
Thank you so much! He’s not biting it, he likes to get down low and bark at it 🤣
@@AleahMartins welcome and yeah dog's are funny
I am surprised that you save used tissue paper.
😍👣❤️👣❤️👣
For the size of that shelf and gift bags, I would say a long clear bin with a lid would do the trick!
Again?
You need to ask yourself how many pens you actually need.
It would concern me to have under 3 year olds, playing with small game pieces.
