Alejandra, don't be discouraged by all the rude comments people leave you. Do not convince yourself that your videos are unwanted. I thoroughly enjoy your videos; in fact, my husband and I have implemented many of your ideas in our own home. I am obsessed with office supplies; Staples and Office Depot are like a toy store to me! I also get made fun of for being organized, but I also have people asking me for help, so just remember why you do what you do--it's to help those in need! Just thought I would take the time to encourage you since people were taking the time to talk you down. God bless you and Ed and all your hard work.
Yes, I love learning this. She is great.
Yes I agree. I have learnt a lot from her videos. I am a business women and I never paid attention to these organising ideas, but I realised that it's so important to have a very organised home.
Thank you for so many wonderful tips.
Victoria Morris that was so kind
Well said Victoria! ❤️
I've only first seen a video by this youtuber now and I totally agree.
I have watched this video so many times, I find something new to learn. I love to organize , but I don't have imagination to do it my self. Thanks to your videos and your program I don't go insane every time I open a drawer or enter a room.
I've watched Alejandra's videos more times than I count count and they always inspire me to organise and be more productive :)
me too
Me too. I hope she comes back to do more videos
a n j a organize
@@adisdip4657 I'm from New Zealand. We spell organise with an s not a z.
please ignore the hurtful and idiotic comments. you provide a nice service!
this makes me happy watching everything perfectly in place and thought out x
Sarah Christie you’re on about perfection when your likes were 50 I made them 51 😂😂😂
Maybe instead of using water bottles, I use a stainless steel re-usable bottle next to the bed for water. Then you don't have to recycle them. Love your videos anyway.
Wan Jones good idea
Love love love all her videos, She helps me manage my household and go to bed and wake up less stressed, knowing i live in a clutter free home!!!
You're awesome! I'm highly neat and organized also. It is a useful trait. I get teased sometimes😄, but it gives me confidence and a sense of peace to have a clean orderly home . Ignore nasty comments, they are motivated by jealousy. I enjoy your videos and wish you continued success.
Sheila Hunter your comment was too cute lol 😊 yes people can be mean and nasty for no reason I rather enjoy her videos too!
I'm very sick. Despite my effort to stay vertical, I spend a lot of time in bed. I really need to organize my nightstand like this! Thank you!
I have a tip for the cord problem! At Christmas time they sell little sticky clips that you can use to put up Christmas lights. Well I had a lamp like that and I used the sticky clips to hold the cord against the back of the shelf leg so it wasn't just hanging there.You could use these to run the cord down the leg into your cord box or the closest electrical outlet!
I hope this tip helps!
I just read a few of the comments (nasty) and thought I should tell you that I appreciate your suggestions, Museum putty to keep containers from sliding is brilliant and storing bottled water is also an idea I never thought of. I will use these two suggestions. I don't know why people have to be mean.
It's not the suggestions I have a problem with. It's the fact that she goes on and on about those cords and hiding the contents of the baskets. I clicked on this video for tips on how to organize a nightstand, not for a seemingly neverending rant about how much she hates seeing cords and the contents of the baskets.
um could this person be nicer?? refreshing!
I have watched a lot of your video's and each one has helped me to declutter that little bit more so thank you very much Alejandra for all your help xxx
I want her to organize my house
yes
I want her to come and organize my bedroom and ready for crafts lol
I want her to organize my appartment, and most the closet
Joy Liu
I was wondering where you found the clip for the phone charger on the back of your night stand. Love that idea.
We are two then.
Cords really annoy me too! Thanks for the clip- you have thought of some great ways to eliminate 'clutter'. Had not thought of blue tacking the containers! (That's what 'musuem putty' is right?}
I don't even have a nightstand. I have a box with a lamp on it
Ok. No one cares😒
+Angelina Yaldo you don't need to be rude about what they said.
😂😂😂
that so rude. i nightstand
Angelina Yaldo we care
I love Your videos.....You inspired me in organizing....Thanks, Alejandra!!! You are my favourite!!!!!!!!
Dust cloth inside a zippered case - GENIUS!!! I keep a stash of microfiber cloths in my nightstand drawer, because once one is dusty, it would contaminate everything else. I never thought of just keeping it in a little zipper case! Truly a "smack my head" moment. I just reclaimed about 1/3 of my drawer space! Thanks!
Great inspiration. Really surprised that people are so negative in the comments. But you know better. Keep up the great work! Love your videos!
Thanks to all your videos ! You have wonderful ideas and I love them! Please keep on making them because it is nice to have an organized home where everything has a place and a purpose to make life easier rather than looking for things all over the house and wasting time.
The pure Monica energy in this video, makes me miss Friends.
I love the sound you bracelet makes
You always remind me of Monica Geller/Bing in Friends!
WITCH IS A COMPLIMENT!!! She is my second favorite caricature (after Chandler)
Which* & character*
+Laynea TheButterfly OMG YESS!! I totally see it.
+sweetheartshawn Thank you! I always spell that wrong I've got dyslexia 😉
I agree. She makes me think of "pre-Mondler" Monica, which is definitely a compliment.
I was honestly thinking that😂 great mind think alike😂😂
I’d add to the nightstand organizing a mini Fire extinguisher ( most people only keep one in garage and in kitchen I keep one in every bedroom) so in case of a fire you can spray your way out towards the door or window maybe keep being nightstand or under bed or behind nightstand
Very smart
I just discovered your videos today and I love them! Lots of great tips. My friends have always chided me about my organized ways but they also always ask me for help with organizing too!
To those who feel the need to post negative, hurtful and rude comments about people's videos etc., I just want to understand how this makes your life better. Only insecure and damaged people lash out at others and try to demean other people in order to build themselves up. Happy, secure people don't do this. Unfortunately, you're making it very obvious which category you belong to. Try building people up instead of tearing them down. It'll end up building you up in the long run and make you feel better about yourself and your life too.
OMG these are the best videos ever. I found you videos last week and have already started implementing many of your practices, and my life has already been changed. Thank you.
Your voice is weirdly relaxing.... and as well watching this kind of videos... #iknowimafreak
Simple tips that I often forget but essential!
An idea for like seeing the wires is to take a nice piece of fabric that matches your room and staple it to the back or your night table with the good side facing the front it will cover up your wires and look nice too
Thank you Alejandra, I really enjoy your video tips. When deciding to organise or reorganise things in my home, I tend to overthink things and try to do it all at once and end up over whelmed . Your organisational tips are inspirational and I have been applying these and just address one area of my house at a time with far better results that are easier to maintain.
i dont know why but i get sleeeepy ever time i see one of your vids 😂😂 maby ASMR ??
i think so haha i get sleepy too lol
for real I was just getting weird tingles
I think its her calming voice.
She makes me very nervous.
Could it be because she goes on and on about things that people really don't care about, like seeing wires and hiding the contents of those baskets?
Besides all the mean comments I read... I find your videos so good and useful! I love it! I'm a perfectionist as well! And I hate having things where they don't belong!
I need everything to be in boxes to keep it organized! Thanks for the videos !
You can take a piece of matching brown fabric and attach it to the back of the nightstand. Then you won't see the chords!
I find watching her vids very relaxing 😎
Alejandra: For the wires hanging down behind the nightstand, you could also use 2 more of those clips like what you have on the back of the nightstand for your phone charger, and use one on the top far corner of the back of the nightstand and the other on the back of one of the legs near the bottom -- and then clip the lamp cord so it runs along the edges of the furniture, and then you won't see the cords! :)
I love your videos. One thing when having a nightstand with an open back. You can take white poster board or flat cardboard cut down to size, and spray-painted to match to finish of the nightstand. Tape it, staple it or use 3M removable backing to connect it. The cords will lie on the other side of that so you'll never see them.
I totally relate to her. I hate seeing wires! it's just a thing. My husband plays video games has a ton of wires from the computer and so on and OMG so annoying but I love him so I let him be lol
A lady who is organized, positive and beautiful. There is a reason you have more than 1M subscribers. Keep up the amazing work.
I’m still obsessed with this video…
same...
I think as you get more organized you see more areas to organize. I love her videos! I have struggled my whole life (I'm 64) with disorganization! I hate being disorganized.....I'm watching video's and really trying again!
Thank you Alejandra! really good ideas, my night stand is mostly out of control so now I have some concrete tips to work from :) thanks again
Those felt pads are awesome! We have hard-wood floors, so we use the felt pads on the bottom of furniture to protect them.
Oh no, I am on her side with this one. I always highlight in books that I have purchased. Never anyone else's or library books. It really is freedom to get away from the Old School Training and highlight what inspires you. Once you start, you'll never go back! You bought the book, you become part of the book and enjoy it. It's not damaging or hurting anyone or anything. You are revealing your age with your comments. We live in 2014 now.
I'm worn out, I tidied the bedside locker too. Now has baskets filled with essentials and lots of paper now in recycling bin. Already I feel calmer and I've only spent a morning organising different areas in my home. Thanks again.
I hate wires!!! I used double sided tape from Lowes to run them along the back of our furniture so you can't see them- works really well!
I just want to say that I apologize for any comments I made last year that were out of line. I really do like your ideas, and I look forward to seeing more of your videos.
Have a great week!
You are doing a very good job.....watched many of your videos, they are very helpful and inspiring, thank you so much!!!!!!
This is a great video! This simple preparation of corralling all the items next to you, avoids waking yourself up and not being able to go back to sleep 😴 as well as not waking up your spouse. Thank you!
Love the putty suggestion, I'm definitely going to start using that for my desk and bedside table. Thank you for making these videos!
Great ideas, I also have issues with wires showing in any room. The funny thing is that I have almost the exact same things as you do in one of your drawers. Stickies are a must! and my flashlight always come in handy but I use mine when I get under my bed storage items.Great ideas, great video!
Tip for your socks. To keep them from losing shape, put the two socks together and roll them. You won't stretch the neck of the socks.
I have never even thought about the bottles of water. Good idea.
What bedside table do you have!? And also your work desk! I love them
Your ideas inspire me and help me. You point out things I have not thought of before. I think that you are a natural at this and are in the right business! Thanks, Alejandra. If you have kids, tho, things may be a bit more difficult for you.
This lady is flipping amazing. If she looked at my place she'd flip. Where do you find ppl like her and how much do they charge? I only see this sort of thing on TV but honestly where do these professional organiser ppl hang out? lol.. is this a thing? Or do only rich ppl and lucky randoms on homeware and talk shows get home makeovers? I live in Australia.
+June Fletcher Hahaha Thank you June!! Yeah honestly I think my brains a mess!! I envy ppl like you who are on the ball all the time!! It'd certainly save a lot of time looking for things!! Some storage is so pricey too but just have to hunt around.. and chuck out stuff
+June Fletcher want to visit south texas!!!! im organizing my room right now but idk wjat to do with things i will use i. the winter but not now. and i hate seeing yhings. i like them concealed. i need halllp
I have the same issues with unsightly cords. I love those command cord keepers. Same removable adhesive as typical command hooks, so no future damage. Add them to the back and/or leg of your nightstand to feed the cords down to your cord box at the bottom. No more pesky bistable cords :) love ALL your videos. Thanks for everything!
thank you Alejandra,your tips are improving my personal organization ;)
I love watching all your videos. Thank you for taking the time to share. I learned so much from you. You are my inspiration when it comes to organizing.
I have NEVER seen a lamp with a dangling cord. Who does that?
greeniiz13 I do. I have a lamp with a dangling cord and it’s annoying
My lamp has a dangling cord
Too. And she’s right, it gets in the way all the time.
What the heck?
Your mom
A lot of people you hating ass bitch
well being like this is good... is better to reach things find things and at the end of the day or week you are not going crazy about what a mess you have and how you going to clean it up... plus sometimes un expected visitors can pop by and see your house very nice and organize.... i love her!!
i bet she has nightmares about dust and wires and chords
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
milana surova cords not chords
@@aidennealon8788 Maybe she plays guitar and has a few nightmare chords to learn.
I've watched all your videos got a book and lebelled it home organizing and it worked a treat me and my husband and my kids and also working to it and its now a GOOD habit for us
Alejandra where do keep your books at night that you read in bed?
@@erikachristensen2217 Nope, she doesn't say, I've watched it twice. Time stamp please.
Another amazing, helpful video. Having a cluttered bedroom is stressful and yours looks very relaxing!
Girl if you saw my room.. 😂
She clicks her "ing" words. "organizinguh" "goinguh" Hee.
If she saw my room, she'd be horrified.
This was exactly what I needed. I never thought about felt on the things on top of the nightstand, or organizers in the drawers for that matter, nice.
I think its better to have a big box of kleenex on the nightstand instead of a travel size pouch in the drawer. The tissue boxes come in really cool designs nowadays too, will add to the decor, just saying...
but the box might scratch the nightstand and it causes dust with each tissue you pull out
i don't think the tissue boxes are that hard so as to scratch the wood of the night stand. you anyways have to dust the night stand at least once a month. the kleenex tissues which have lotion in them don't seem to cause as much dust.
I have a box of tissues in a zebra print holder that you but your tissue box in and it works perfectly fine and doesn't scratch my nightstand and my nightstand is white and even if I didn't have the holder it doesn't scratch my nightstand
Sorry, tissue boxes don't "add" to decor (although at least they can make themselves acceptable or pleasant.) Besides, then Alejandra would have to DUST the tissue box every day too! ;o ;-D
TriX is this a joke bc it’s funny af😂
All these tips are so useful can not wait to move to my new apartment and out all these ideas and tips into practice
Thanks for this video. Can u do one on how to organize your car? Thank you.
Thank you Alejandra! I am on a budget to organize my house & these free videos are a big help to learn how to... Again, Thanks! :-)
this was so helpful
I love the idea of keeping water there! I’m trying to drink more water, especially when on waking, so I love it!
I love how your so organized How dose she do it I clean like that also
You are my organizer queen… your organization have helped me so much… I appreciate you videos so much.
This might be a little tmi, but do you have somewhere to organize your toys? Mine seem to always get misplaced, lost, etc. in the deep bin. Need to gather an organizing system. Also, is it okay to put labels on their plastic material?
I know I'm 3 years too late but O.M.G.
I don't know how I didn't die laughing? LMAO!!!!!!!
For the wiring that shows in the back, using the same little grabber that you used for your phone you could add it to the back legs of the nightstand. Attach the extra wire to the little grabber and the wires would be out of sight.
Why do I feel like a slob when I watch this lol
I love how perfect you are with organization! So many ideas:))
I think if you see my nightstand drawers, you'd faint! Everything is all over the place its just.. horrible ;-;
Jacqueline Almazan same
Jacqueline Almazan I have just done this
LOVE this! Thank you! (Yes, cords ARE extremely bothersome to the eye... and they're EVERYWHERE! Cord-box cord-box cord-box cord-box... cord-box
I have used painters tape to run the courts behind the leg of furniture that doesn't have backing.
+HolisticHomemaker And if painter's tape upsets your sensibilities (it doesn't upset mine) you can use the same adhesive cord clips as from the phone charger. :D
Your so clever you think of ideas I wouldn't even dream of. I'm not organised at all but your videos are really helping
does anyone know where i can find a similar bedside table?
MatthewW IKEA
Hi! Your videos got me to be organizing all i have! Thanks!😄
Can I cut triangles, instead of circles or squares, out of the felt? I need to ask, for as someone who needs to be told how to organise a drawer, I'm not sure I can be trusted on the shapes thing.
yes lol
I know right?? You can't just go and decide it all by yourself
Lol,
I used command strips and hooks to hide the cords behind the leg. I alternate wires so they are all individually held in place. and it doesn't damage the furniture.
Who's watching in 2016
Me 😂
me
me
me
me😄😄😄Lol
Please don't change! Just stay yourself xx mucho love
When I first started watching her I thought she was soooo annoying now I think she amazing she has my life so much easier
Thank you Alejandra for you're great ideas on organizing . I love to be organized , my life feels more in order .
ODC is a serious mental illness, that many people mistake for just being organized. It downplays how hard it can actually be to live with for those who actually have it.
hahaha! OCD… please stop judging others without even knowing what's going on in their lives.
luissy7 I actually wasn't judging anyone, My comment is pretty old if you go back and look there was a lot of negative comments that made light of OCD. My point is that OCD isn't something to be ashamed of, but taking the stigma of any mental illness is to not stereotype systems.
I love these videos, I think she does a great job of helping people get ideas for their homes.
love your videos honestly im a very disorganized person and your videos have helped me A LOT it makes it very easy fo me to be organized without having to take everything appart whenever i need something
i need u to organize my house badly !!!!!!!!!!!
Tfs. I have to get a cord box. Great idea
I like your ideas, but what's with the water bottles?. It's not like you're camping and there's no where else to store them.
She gets really thirsty therefore she needs a bottle of water
A bottle, yes, as in singular.
Yes true I see your point
:)
Dimi GT Well I keep maybe 10 bottles in my night stand. Like for a week, so tht I dont forget to refill every day. My husband needs one and I need one. Maybe, she as well does it for the same reason!!
Thank you for great tips and inspiration as always! 😊🌹🌺💗🌈🐬
can you do a video on how to organize your school bag
I love your attention to details; it helps people like me who over look things. Thanks! :)
OMG people leave her alone. How do you know she Has ocd? She likes to organise just like you like to do other things
The water bottles next to the bed are GENIUS.
