My mother ironed the sheets in the 60’s, she would let me iron the pillow cases, table cloths, dresser scarves, doilies, so I would know how to iron. With the fabrics today you really don’t need to iron these things anymore, but I’m so glad she showed me how. Linen pants, shirts need ironed. I actually enjoy it.
I don't know anyone who irons bedding..... so strange that people tell you that you need to do that. I don't iron anything. If it's clothing and requires ironing or dry cleaning I don't buy it.
In the UK we are brought up to iron our clothes, in ironed clothes are a no no, but the younger generation don't iron as much, I wish I hadn't spent so many hours ironing, but I didn't have a tumble dryer back then, as we dry our Clothes outside on the washing line in good weather, and on a maiden in not nice weather, my Sister and my niece both iron their bedding, I don't and never have done. I don't like to see creased clothes, and men's and boys trousers (not jeans) should always have a crease in them. 💐
Just a tip for your dryer, the dryer vent from the outside usually should be cleaned out yearly. There are companies that can do that, you would be amazed what they pull out of there. It is a fire hazard if not done., and your dryer will function better.😊❤
Hi Catherine! I have been doing some decluttering too and it really is amazing what a difference makes! I definitely have been trying to do it more often. ❤
Ironing sheets is overrated lol...I don't have time to mess with that either! Decluttering is high on my list this year and you're definitely motivating me to do MORE. Your progress is amazing so far, and I definitely see a huge difference already. Less stuff = less stress! ❤
I bought our cat a pet dish from Dollar Tree for her wet food. It’s coated in some sort of silicone, and you can literally wipe the food out with a paper towel. Nothing sticks. I bought a few of them so we always have a clean one. Also, I have never ironed our sheets. We ditched the top sheet years ago. We use a duvet so it’s easy to wash.
I’ve actually been cleaning the bare minimum before parties, I make sure the bathroom is clean, have new towels and that it’s mostly picked up around the house and I might vacuum the kitchen but only if it’s a mess. I prefer to do the cleaning after the party. I’ve never gotten a comment about this strategy och the state of my home.
I don't iron sheets either. What a wonderful way to show your son that his privacy is of importance to the family. They grow up so fast that sometimes it is easy to forget that young ones have to be taught by example how to have respect for others as well as for themselves.
Wow Catherine, Carson has grown so much! He's so handsome!! You don't often show him in your videos and I couldn't believe how big he got when I saw him in this video!! 😃😃❤
❤❤. I have started decluttering my kitchen and bathroom . Wasn't to bad because last year I really started decluttering and got rid of some much!! So this time around so far haven't been so bad. Thank you for the motivation your videos have really helped😊
My mom irons her pretty cotton sheets to this day & it's awesome to look at & on the skin, but then the woman irons almost everything. She grew up during the "you need to be impeccable era". My goal in life is to spend the least amount of time on chores, because it's precious time of my life I'll never get back for something that doesn't even last the blink of an eye. So buying stuff that doesn't need maintenance if I can, & I barely steam some items of clothing to make them wearable. It's such a different view of life
❤ Who has time to iron their sheets? To me, I have way more important things to do, I agree with you, that is just not needed. Loved this video (ok, all of yours!) Happy Day! 😺
Cleaning motivation at its finest! 😄 Watching you deep clean and transform your space is so satisfying. Your dedication is inspiring - keep up the fantastic work! 🧹✨
I always love cleaning and declutter videos. Look forward to more. I don't think I could put pet bowls in my dishwasher either. Happy to hear your husband's car accident wasn't serious. Sending my love as always.❤
Don’t let other people’s opinions bother you. There’s always gonna be someone with a negative comment but there are more people with positive ones! You’re doing great and I love your videos! You do you!❤
I find that the hardest task to do around my toddler is fold clothes. I normally have to wait for Daddy to come home so I can close the bedroom door and do it, otherwise she gets on the bed when I’m folding and throws clothes everywhere 😭 Edit: We go to Aldi for our groceries and we get far higher quality food for so much less than we would at our local stores.
Love the xoxo Garland too! Sooo cute! Iron the sheets?? Absolutely not! I haven't heard of anyone doing that since my mom & grandma used to do that when I was little! You can tell you're so much happier with how your decluttering makes your life easier 😊. Have a great day!❤
Your fireplace looks so beautiful. I was wondering if you ever considered opening up the wall between the living room and dining room so you can put furniture around it.
Hi Catherine, I have a suggestion about your bedroom floor is I would use a Swifter extended handle Duster run across the floor and able to reach underneath the bed and dresser. I enjoyed your video ❤ 28:15
Our island is the biggest catch all in the house! I try to stick to the rule of 4 on flat surfaces. Only 4 things at a time but it gets really difficult to stay on top of.
What?! Iron sheets? Holy cow, no way. I am older, 58 years old, and I don't think anyone in my family has ever ironed sheets. 😳I cannot imagine wrestling those things onto the ironing board.
I just want to know why you wash your dishes before you put them in your dishwasher? I get a quick rinse to remove food or grease but when you add soap to your sponge, wash, rinse and then load in dishwasher just doesn't make sense to me.
Mine is also emptying the dishwasher. My baby also climbs on the door and one time when I turned around to put a coffee mug away on the opposite side of the kitchen, he was hanging off of the 2nd rack 😳
Catherine I do have time to iron sheets but why would I, as you say the next day they are wrinkled. Also the whole idea of linen sheets is to give that casual look. I totally agree with you, why waste your valuable time x
I didn't think anyone has ironed sheets since 1975. Lol and i feel you on those cat dishes. The pate, i think it's called, turns to cement. I feel like it's made out of the same stuff as oatmeal. Lol
❤❤❤❤❤ thanks for a wonderful video ! And good luck with Sutton's picky eating - I have the same problem with my 5-year old daughter - so I'm with you ! 👍🏻👍🏻
Good luck with the therapy !! Wish we had something like that here in South Africa.... but please keep me posted !! And thank you SO much for all the great video's !! Oh - and ironing sheets ???? Uhm - NO...!!
Suggestion for the cats' food. I definitely understand not putting fish-stinky dishes in your dishwasher but I'm wondering if tuna for the cats is a good idea especially if that's what they eat most of the time. Tuna is not their natural diet (doesn't have the right nutrition profile), it's supposedly highly addictive (they won't want anything else) but mainly i would be concerned about the amount of mercury that they are consuming.
They literally will not eat any other type of wet food, it’s wild, they won’t even touch anything else. They like dry food so we try to get a really good quality dry food. But so far they’re all very healthy and we haven’t seen any issues! Our vet was ok with the brand of tuna we use
Catherine, best of luck with Sutton and his resistance to eating various foods. My nephew was like that of course this goes back 20 years but they used a reward program with him, every food he tried and ate a certain amount they rewarded him. He also was away for about 2 weeks at Children's hospital due to the fact that they said he was too bonded to Mom and would never eat for her so they took him out of the home setting. Now I don't this they do that anymore but in those 2 weeks he came home eating a more various diet, after about a year it was a non issue. So many things trigger eating for little ones, it is a complex issue. I know once he gets to a physician it will happen. I know you mentioned it take a while for these appointments with specialists.. Many kids have this issue in their toddler stage. Great video! Iron Sheets NEVER!
Thank you!! Yeah it’s a struggle for sure, we haven’t made much progress yet but we’re trying! I hope someday he and I can look back on it and laugh together once he realizes how much good food he’s been missing out on!
I totally know what you mean about the microfiber cloths giving you the creeps! I might need to check out the ones you got from Walmart! and NO WAY do I iron my sheets! Who has time for that??! ❤
I do iron my sheets. I find ironing my fitted sheets assist in folding them very square. I can press them into submission 😂😂. I However would never judge someone who doesn't.
When my grandson was around 2-3 he wouldn’t eat hardly anything but like the Dr said when they get hungry they will eat. He’s 13 now and he eats fine, he doesn’t like vegetables but his mother doesn’t either so she didn’t push them
Honestly, i wouldn't wash my cats bowls in our sink, yet in dishwasher , so you're not alone 😂 And for the sheets, there is like a softner spray that you can spray on the sheets and just straight it with hands! I do it and works wonders 😊 but wouldn't iron it ever, i have a hard time ironing my clothes, where would i be if id iron the sheets too 😬
Rolling folding them in half then in half again and rolling them up really tight helps keep them from wrinkling. I learned that from a hotel I worked at.
I wouldn't feel comfortable washing my pet dishes in my dishwasher either.🤢 I don't iron my sheets, I have better things to do than iron!! Great video, I think I'll go de-clutter something!!! lol
I’ve seen a lot of videos where ppl’s bed making skills should not be filmed. The beds look horrible. I love when my sheets & pillowcases look crisp. I’m a very neat person that’s just me. So I’m on board with the sheet ironing. At the least the pillowcases.
My mother ironed the sheets in the 60’s, she would let me iron the pillow cases, table cloths, dresser scarves, doilies, so I would know how to iron. With the fabrics today you really don’t need to iron these things anymore, but I’m so glad she showed me how. Linen pants, shirts need ironed. I actually enjoy it.

Same here! I don't have time for ironing
I think it’s strange when ppl don’t iron things & just look unkempt. It makes a difference.
There’s always time for ironing.
Just a tip for your dryer, the dryer vent from the outside usually should be cleaned out yearly. There are companies that can do that, you would be amazed what they pull out of there. It is a fire hazard if not done., and your dryer will function better.😊❤
❤ my name is Pat Smith and I’m a new subscriber. I’m enjoying you videos very much. Keep up the great work.
Hi Catherine! I have been doing some decluttering too and it really is amazing what a difference makes! I definitely have been trying to do it more often. ❤
It’s crazy, I feel like our house can actually breathe for once with less stuff!
I don’t like feeling microfiber cloths either. ❄️ I don’t iron my sheets. Too much work ❄️ very productive day of cleaning! ❤
Gentle Reminder
Put a container or laundry bag just keep your used Microfibre cloths.
Save your time, search thru among your other laundry.
❤Thank you for the content. I needed to watch this again, because it was that motivating.

I always did special things when they napped…usually to Mr Rodger’s neighborhood! Fast asleep in the first 5 minutes!!
You have a very pleasant voice. Decluttering and reorganizing as well as shopping videos once in a while are all nice.
Another great video. Pray you get Casterly to sponsor you I think their modular sofa will look great in front of your fireplace 🙏🏼
Aw, I wish! I have actually reached out to them a couple times but they aren’t interested at the moment
Wow Catherine, Carson has grown so much! He's so handsome!! You don't often show him in your videos and I couldn't believe how big he got when I saw him in this video!! 😃😃❤
OMG girl I totally know what you are talking about the microfiber cloths and I do iron my sheets!!! Lol
Yes I am proud!! 😃 much less clutter! You are doing great!!
108k , you are moving up fast. ❤😊👏🏻
I can’t even believe it!
Happy Wednesday! 😃❤
♥ Carter was so cute in that video clip! I hate that my sheets get wrinkly but I would never in a million years iron them lol

Our babies sound so similar! My son is 15 months old and loves the dishwasher and the roomba!!
Fab fit fun boxes are so much fun!❤. However I found that they were undoing my decluttering efforts!!!! Loved your cleaning motivation ❤❤
I use to iron my bedsheets but not anymore but I iron my pillowcases all the time. Thank you for sharing
Don’t let other people’s opinions bother you. There’s always gonna be someone with a negative comment but there are more people with positive ones! You’re doing great and I love your videos! You do you!❤
Catherine, 82.50 on your groceries??!😉 In an ideal world I would iron pillowcases but sheets…. that’s crazy talk! Love your content!! Watched it all!❤
Suggestion - washout the paw patrol tubs and refill with less expensive yogurt. I hope it works but always worth a try to get the little one to eat.
I love Grocery Hauls!
I find that the hardest task to do around my toddler is fold clothes. I normally have to wait for Daddy to come home so I can close the bedroom door and do it, otherwise she gets on the bed when I’m folding and throws clothes everywhere 😭
Edit: We go to Aldi for our groceries and we get far higher quality food for so much less than we would at our local stores.
Awesome Pantry Organization! Just love it!
Good job for being considerate of your son’s privacy! And I wouldn’t ever iron my sheet either. Like, EVER. 😊
What do you use to clean for your kitchen sink? I was impressed by how clean. Thank you.
Love the xoxo Garland too! Sooo cute!
Iron the sheets?? Absolutely not! I haven't heard of anyone doing that since my mom & grandma used to do that when I was little!
You can tell you're so much happier with how your decluttering makes your life easier 😊.

Made it to the end. Your thoughts on microfiber cloths was interesting.
love watching you ❤
I do not iron sheets. I do make it a point to fold them while they are warm from the dryer.
Nice video ❤ really liked it
THANK YOU. ❤
Our island is the biggest catch all in the house! I try to stick to the rule of 4 on flat surfaces. Only 4 things at a time but it gets really difficult to stay on top of.
I am proud of you!
Your commentary during the grocery haul was so good - my kid went through that picky stage and it was so frustrating 😅😂
love the tray boards at the end! ❤
Yes…I’m one of those too with the microfiber cloths! I’ll have to check out the Walmart ones.
Great video today! 😊
I think they’re out of stock now which stinks! Hopefully they bring them back soon
We LOVE Bob Evans mashed potatoes! I use them exclusively now just because I don't have time with a toddler to make homemade anymore
They’re so good!!
What?! Iron sheets? Holy cow, no way. I am older, 58 years old, and I don't think anyone in my family has ever ironed sheets. 😳I cannot imagine wrestling those things onto the ironing board.
Thank you for the motivation! ❤
Like the music. Could you tell me who performed the music you played? Really like it, nice.
My daughter was super picky like sutton. It does get better my daughters 10 now.
Thank you for the encouragement!!

I always enjoy your content. But i wondered if you were gonna put that little blue football in the dishwasher 😂😂

I completely understand about the microfiber cloths , I hate the feeling of them
Glad to know it’s not just me. I don’t like how they feel on the tips of my fingers.
Happy Wednesday!!! 💕
Happy Wednesday!
Olá...boa noite!
Amei o vídeo ❤👏🏻👏🏻

❤❤❤❤❤ thanks for a wonderful video ! And good luck with Sutton's picky eating - I have the same problem with my 5-year old daughter - so I'm with you ! 👍🏻👍🏻
Not much luck yet, no! He’s a stubborn little guy. He starts food therapy soon so I’m hopeful that’ll help!
Good luck with the therapy !! Wish we had something like that here in South Africa.... but please keep me posted !! And thank you SO much for all the great video's !!
Oh - and ironing sheets ???? Uhm - NO...!!

Always iron my sheets. Just the thought of not doing it is ridiculous. See how I did that 😊
@@vibe2248you must have a lot of time on your hands then. Once my sheets are out of dryer and put on bed, there’s no wrinkles! 😊
I would tell those people that iron their sheets…..God Bless you!😂
Hahaha 😆

What color is your fireplace? I love it!

Whoever has time to iron there bed sheets has way too much time on their hands 😂 love your videos ❤
And whoever doesn’t probably is a frumpy mess…hahaha 😒
Your 2yo can help you put the dishes away 🙂 he can pass them to you. He'd probably love it
He’s not ready yet! Haha I’m sure in a few months we can work on it but for now, there would be a lot of broken dishes and nonsense 😂
I can not do the dishwasher or vacuum when my toddler is around.❤
Another great video ❤
Thank you 🤗
Life is too short to iron your sheets in the old days that was required do to the type of material available not now
Rolling folding them in half then in half again and rolling them up really tight helps keep them from wrinkling. I learned that from a hotel I worked at.
I don’t and will never iron sheets!
Thankyou❤

Don't put yourself with ironing your sheets. Way to much trouble for nothing. Great video. Sincerely, Kat from Kentucky.
Agreed!! Haha thank you for watching!
Do you also check your dryer vent to see if it is clogged?
I have to! I haven’t checked in a bit
