As an emergency nurse who is both hospital & helicopter based, PLEASE label every cleaner regardless of how "natural” it is!! Should Baby A (God forbid) get into those bottles, I can 100% confirm that you, Josh, grandparents, whoever is there will not have the right frame of mind to tell us what was in the bottles when we are demanding to know. At minimum, label the bottoms & behind the silicone sleeve where they are barely visible, but can be found. The bamboo bag & roll organizer drawer turned out great, but the lids for your spices are absolutely my favorite! All the leftover chilies from your enchilada sauce would look great on your pantry shelf in jars with some of the your extra lids too (vs the bags)! The kitchen is really coming together 🤗💜!
All my cleaning supplies were in high cupboards till kids were grown. ❤
I was coming to the comments to say this.
Great idea about the labelling others in the household wouldn’t necessarily know what’s in the decanted bottles even a small notebook would be better than nothing
Great organization!
As someone who misted seedlings with a natural kitchen cleaner instead of water and killed them, I completely agree. Don’t assume even with color coding and keeping them in different spots that you won’t mix them up on a busy day.
Becky, I love your channel! Your passion, kindness and expertise really shine through. I’m always amazed how you’ll have thousands of views less than an hour after posting- we’re all excited to see what you’re up to next! You don’t have to do any fancy editing tricks or extensive lighting, you just bring us into your daily adventures and we’re happy to be here with you. You’ve grown such a great community here so authentically, and as someone who watches RUclips all the time I think it’s pretty incredible the way you create these videos so often, with seemingly effortless connection and genuine warmth. It’s been so fun watching you and your family grow, thanks for bringing us along for the ride!!
Spoken so true. I love the all natural. That’s how I try to be on my channel.
Maybe to help Josh you could put the label on the bottom of the bottle so he could look to see what he is using and you don't have to see it when you look in the cabinet. Just a way to make everyone happy. Enjoy you!
For the silicone bags my sister uses those wooden "magazine files" and she turned them on the front with the long side down in the pull out shelf. She loves it.
Clever!
Yeah i was gonna come suggest a magazine organizer! Put the thin long side down and it should fit in the pull out shelf and take only third of the horizontal space!
I was coming to say magazine file as well. Just fyi, they also work well for keeping all the snap on lids to bowls corralled too
That is what I keep mine in as well. 😊
I’ve noticed in several of your videos that you don’t recap your vanilla bottle. Is there a reason why? I would think leaving it open would allow for evaporation?
I just want to tell you how much me and my daughter (she's 14) love and enjoy you. Every time you say "hi friend" of "by friend" we say it right back. When you do the voice overs and we hear baby acre, my heart melts. (all moms can relate). You are such an amazing person and we as viewers are blessed to have you to watch.
Yes, my husband and I put your videos up on our TV and watch them together!
I talk about Becky so often my husband thinks of her as our long lost daughter! 😂
@@mlee7037 I love that so sweet, Becky and family really lightens my day she and the comments threads make me feel less alone as nuts as that sounds
I've stopped saying "a RUclipsr I follow" and just say Becky 🤣🤣
Becky did you ever find the egg your chicken laid in the garage the other day, when you were up potting your seedlings? Your very own Easter egg hunt! I am at the age where I can both hide and find my own Easter eggs.
I wondered about the egg myself! A cliffhanger!😊
😂
Me 3.... Wondering
Love your new organized kitchen. It’s not silly to keep your kitchen organized in a way that makes you WANT to keep your kitchen organized. Kudos to you.
You remind me of my daughter SO MUCH! Even about the same age! She’s a little Miss Go-Getter, even with a husband & 3 young children she just never stops. (Got that from me haha!) It’s how you drop stuff & get that great look on your face -adorable! You just don’t let stuff bother you. God bless you & your family & your channel! I love your channel! (No skimpy outfits, no foul language, no inappropriate comments…) Just plain good stuff!
Hey Becky, try keeping the open bottles of oil in your kitchen cupboard still so you can refill the sml bottles.
And just keep unopened bottles of oil in your food storage room.
That way you dont have to run downstairs when you are out, during a big food cooking day.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Or keep at least one extra or open bottle in your pantry off the kitchen.
I totally agree It would drive me crazy to have to run all the way to the basement everytime I needed to refill bottles. At the very least, keep the open bottles of oil in the pantry.
i was going to say to keep them in her pantry, for the same reason. she uses so much oil because of cooking so often, that she's going to get a workout fetching the oil to refill.
Hi Becky, try using your cookie scoop to make meatballs… Portions them out perfectly so they all cook evenly! Makes such a world of difference when you are batch cooking!!
I have wanted to try making my own meatballs and would have never thought of using a cookie scoop. Thanks for the tip!
She does use the cookie scoop for meatballs
The fact that Josh doesn’t spend as much time in the kitchen is a good reason to have labels. You are the only one who knows what is in your container. Anyone else isn’t aware and that is frustrating when they are trying to help.
Just so you're aware, oils (especially avocado oil) need to be stored in dark glass containers (notice the avocado oil originally came in a dark glass bottle). The light will deteriorate the oil causing it to go rancid. Just a heads up, I know oils can be expensive and I would hate to see yours go bad (like mine did 😑).
Same goes for spices.
I love the way you do your spices on your counter are those widemouth quart jars?
Certain oils do need to be protected from exposure to light.
Same for nuts, seeds, polenta, bouillon powder...etc...
I use my oils/spices in my convient cooking area so quickly they don't have a chance to go bad in the clear containers.
Those jar lids look good. A nice labeling compromise might be to label the bottom of a few items. For example, on the ziptop bag holder, label the inside of the hole (where you look into it when empty). That way when it's empty, it's obvious what to refill it with, without the label being on display. With the spices, you could label the bottom of the jar. That way it's still labeled for the sake of identifying what's inside, but it wouldn't be on display. As for cleaners, you really should label them for safety's sake. Many shouldn't be used together, and labeling prevents accidents.
👍
I love this idea! Whoever needs that info can locate it at the bottom (whether it’s Josh or another family member helping Becky in the kitchen) but from day-to-day there’s not text on the face of the item
Great idea! It would be helpful, also, for anyone who's helping in the kitchen.
Maybe select a Font that you like and label the containers with the name. I agree with it being a safety issue! Might want to get dark colored bottles for the oils since light makes them degrade quicker, though maybe you’ll go through it before that happens. Love the spice jar tops! Thanks for inspiring me to tackle a cupboard or two😀
I found after becoming a mom that clutter, even in closed drawers, added to my stress and anxiety. I have slowly made my way through my house coming up with organizational systems that work for me. The expense was worth it for making me a less stressed momma.
I love how you are making your kitchen feel more aesthetic for yourself. You spend a lot of time in your kitchen and it makes it feel nicer for you.
Remember all the chemicals under the sink will have to be secured when the baby begins to get into things.
You can freeze eggs, in muffin tins then in a bag for baking.
Becky please make sure you label your cleaners and your oils just in case if Josh or someone else comes over to help you out so that they know what's what just to be safe. Those bamboo organizers are to die for!! I love the mason jar lids as well.
Do not forget to get the outlets that have USB ports. And according to code (where I live), there must be outdoor outlets (the ones with the trip buttons) within 4 feet of a water source (like your sink).
Label makers are your friend, especially when you start having babysitters and other helpers.
How nice to have a USB outlet in your kitchen for your phone cord!
@@Katheverett The USB outlets can also be used to run lights, cameras and computers, which I think might make sense for a vlogger.
Becky, loves this video and no you’re not silly for wanting things organized. My kitchen cabinets are driving me crazy and I was going to a complete kitchen remodel, then I was just going to paint the cabinets and now I have decided to just put on new hardware and replace my dining set with an island to give me more storage. This video was so inspiring and when I get home, I’m house sitting and animal sitting g for my daughter and son-in-law who took the kids to Disney, that I’m going to get to work on organization. I would love to do the kitchen but my first step is going to be to get my pantry room organized, which will only take a couple of days and then move onto the kitchen. Thanks for putting out such inspirational videos.
Becky, you can freeze dry your extra eggs for use during the winter when the hens aren’t laying. 2 Tbls. egg powder + 2 Tbls. of water = 1 egg.
She already does This
She did last yr
My mom did this also. She tried it with cooked eggs and they were just okay when reconstituted. Then freeze dried them raw and boy what a difference! Great suggestion :)
I water glass mine. They're awesome!!
For the silicone bags, try getting a document organizer (the paper-sized boxes you'd find in office supplies, they usually stand in bookcases and similar holding papers).
Stand it on the long side and put the silicone bags in there standing up aswell.
Edit: just found the English word: "magazine holder"
Sometimes it’s the little things that make us feel better. Even if it’s something as simple as door pulls or organizing drawers. Great job Becky!!! Thanks for always bringing us “friends” along with you. Always enjoy hanging out with you. Hope you, Josh, baby, fur babies & family are all doing well. ❤. Tell your Momma I said hello & thank you for letting us hang out in her kitchen with you. Makes my heart happy to see you ladies working together. ❤❤ I didn’t have that type of connection with my Mom & cooking was always more of a chore than joy for me. You are so blessed to have grown up with such a loving, caring, compassionate & patient Mother. Don’t get me wrong I absolutely love my Mom but, with raising a family of 10 & suffering from anxiety/panic attacks it was best for us “kids” to go outside & play. That was just life & we made the best of it. We had a home cooked meal every single night & never went without. Just goes to show every family dynamic can/is different.
L❤VE the new tops for the mason jars.
I love the wooden lids! I haven't seen a pack that big though, that's awesome!!
Hi Becky,
Just wanted to mention that permanent marker can be erased on Mason lids with an alcohol wipe.
Great video!🎉
I don’t even have to use a wipe. I drop them in a sink if soapy water while I’m doing dishes and then scrub the top with whatever scrubby sponge I’m using for dishes and it typically comes right off.
Hand sanitizer works too, no scrubbing or scratches.
@@cynthiafisher9907That's because the main ingredient in sanitizer is alcohol.
@@RTCPhotoWork Yes
Also, loved the wooden/silicone jar lids! I always use plastic screw top lids for any foods I store in mason jars in the fridge or freezer. Recommended for store low sugar strawberry freezer jam. Also, with a little one in the home you need to get locks for your under sink storage doors or move everything up high. Little ones are so curious!
I love that you are making small, cost effective changes to your kitchen.😊 No need to spend a lot of money for updates.
I love doing organization projects and unifying spaces. I'm OCD and to have everything in its own place and look cohesive just makes me calmer. When I'm calmer I want to do more work. I loved watching how excited you got about opening all the packages and putting it all together.
I’m a very laidback person, but in my kitchen it’s like I’m a different person, a place for everything and everything in place. I wish I could get my brain to do that for the rest of my house 😄
I think you use your olive oils fast enough that you don't have to be concerned, but the reason the original bottles are colored is to keep the light from making the oils go rancid. Anyone else who does not cook as often as you do may want to keep their oils in the original colored glass containers.
I would have the same concern in a kitchen with that much natural light.
i was just reading that oils shouldn't be kept near appliances.
The other option is to put a reasonably quick useable amount in a smaller bottle, and leave the colored bottle in a cool, dark place. this way if SOME of the oil goes back, not ALL of it will!
Just keep them in the cabinet. They’ll be fine
I use the silicone bags too. I keep them in IKEA magazine storage boxes. They are white plastic and stand nicely on a shelf.
Yay for good timing, Josh!
I love the new hardware. I'm currently Spring cleaning and now maybe shopping for organization stuff 😅
Your content has improved my life. I'm very grateful to have found you when I did. ❤
People used to use brass for knobs etc as brass is antimicrobial. Great updates in the kitchen with organization etc. Love the wood lids :)
YES! We love organizing and keeping things flowing well at our homestead too! It's so satisfying to see all the things working for you instead of against you!
For parchment paper I go to a restaurant supply store (or on line I suppose) and buy the half sheet pan papers already cut. The box sits in my cabinet and is so convenient to pull out however many I need. Great for ALL kinds of baking.
Hi Becky,
Regarding recycling and compostable garbage...I have one huge garden bed that we built two years ago and we couldn't afford soil. We used it for ALL garbage that is biodegradable to fill the bed as well as yard waste and chicken coop bedding. You could easily throw in all your cardboard to take up some room in the beds rather than send it to recycling. This year we are buying soil and the amount is a fraction of what we would have had to buy.😎
I love how small changes can make a big difference. I love your kitchen! Super functional and beautiful.
I 100% understand having things match and avoid the “visual vomit” of commercial packaging. You’re not alone!!
"visual vomit" LOL great description!
Haha love that comment
I'm glad that I'm not the only one that doesn't like advertisement overload. The minimum about of wording the better.
Yeeeeeeeees, along with the dog gone boxes and boxes and containers, acck! I'm like Becky on this! However, I could only *dream* of a kitchen this big and functional. Trust me when I say we've got a small kitchen but we make it work for us. We do the best with what we've got. I would love to have these organizers but we're being extremely frugal and paying on debts right now. I'm still dreaming of so much, like gardening etc. I can't wait to ever get my hands on some gardening stuff like what she's got. The heating mat, plus her plant tower. Among lots of other things. The organizers she's got too. (The boxes for the baggies and the under the sink organizer.) Sometimes, it just takes being 'simple' to love what you've got even that much more. Tiny baby steps like this really can change your mindset on things. Similar to painting a room a new color.
For your silicone bags, look for file folder organizers in the office supply department.
Baby safe locks on the lower cabinets are so helpful. They give peace of mind and are easily removed when no longer needed.
Some people be nit-picking waaaayyy too much! There's helpful advice and then there's just having something to say about every little thing micro management 😅🤣 chill y'all!
Love, Love, Love organization! I really like to have everything out of their original packaging too! It isn’t silly, it is so pleasing to the eye and easier to do tasks. Great job! Love it Becky!😊
I just discovered your channel and have been enjoying your videos. I really liked this one about organizing because I am adding a walk-in pantry to my fairly small kitchen. So I am looking for good organizational ideas. The one thing I did notice when you were talking about the rings on your home canned produce. I have been canning for many years and I learned through safe canning procedures that you are not supposed to keep the screw tops on the jars. They should be removed when you wipe your jars and store them. Leaving them on can give a false seal. I encourage you to look into that for the safety of your home processed foods. Thanks again for all you share.
Those new lids for the herbs are beautiful! Such fun watching you get organized!
My husband and I just bought a house a month ago and I have never before had so much room in my kitchen and watching this video gave me some very good ideas.
Congrats on your new home 😊
@@theirishcailin333 thank you
@@pennynickels5216 thank you
Becky, I LOVE your wooden Mason jar lids. There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting your kitchen to be esthetically pleasing. You spend a TON of time there. That space should definitely feel inviting for you!
Hello Becky, love watching your videos. I use the spring Clips from 3M to hold my reusable food storage bags. I've attached them to the inside of a cupboard door and they work just like a "chip clip" and I absolutely love them. Plus, hanging them on the inside of the door frees up space inside cabinets and drawers.
great idea!
Your drawer looks amazing! Your new hardware for your cabinets looks great. Love your videos. Your kindness shines through in everything you do.
FYI magic eraser takes the old writing off the mason jar lids
I appreciate you using the things you already have, and donating the knobs to the Restore store. Your a simple type person. Clean lines and color's is the style you like, it's all good. Even a chefs kitchen is set up in a way that makes things have there own placement. Oh by the way, Your very first Mothers Day is next month,the 14🌷🌿..
I totally agree with you on the cookie scoop being a game changer! I absolutely love the ease of use, but I need to upgrade mine to a more durable model like yours as the gears on mine keep jumping teeth, which prevents the swing arm from clearing the entire scoop. If you don't already do this, I suggest using the ice cream scoop size for dishing out muffin & pancake batter. Perfectly sized muffins & pancakes every time!
Speaking as someone with ocd, I totally understand wanting even the small things to be aesthetically calming and nice to look at. And by adding these small changes to your most used space, you really are creating a calm and enjoyable space for yourself by reducing all the things that you don't like to look at that may trigger any unpleasant feelings (such as text, visible advertising etc) and there's so many products out there to choose from that cater to this goal so it's nice to know we can do this to improve our spaces. I love the look of the bamboo!
I just started watching this channel a few months before Becky surprised Josh with a baby.
Every time I get a notification, I drop everything to watch!
You're inspiring me to think about meal prep differently and you're a little peaceful spot on the Internet.
Thank you.❤❤❤
Girl, you are not silly in any way! It's funny how updating hardware can make such a difference. I've been thinking about under the sink organization. Just had the outside of my cabinets painted and it gets crusty under there. Have leftover paint, so going to paint first.
{Becky starting seeds} "I need to be much better about labeling things"
{Becky in the garden} "Why didn't I label these😢"
{Becky in the kitchen} "I'm not going to label this because I'll remember"
I love you girl, but when there's a tiny bit of oil at the bottom of both bottles they are going to look veeerrryyy similar. Speaking from experience.
My sister had the crapy plastic scoop, and cloth oven mitts that had holes in them. I got her a new metal scoop and a pair of those silicone oven mitts, she absolutely loved them.I also have made her a cookbook with all my best recipies, with lots of room for her to add her own favorite ones too. We used to laugh, she said if the house ever caught fire, those are the things she would grab first,
It's your home! You get to make it how you want, I do the same thing a little bit at a time😊 luckily we bought our home the home builders everything matches 😊
Use a standing lid organizer for the bags. You can stand them up and it is much easier to get to them.
Professional organizer here. Please label your containers! It will make your and everyone else's life (if they are helping you out in your kitchen) so much easier! You did a great job at organizing!!
Agreed! I'm not a professional, but I am a very organized person who went through a similar "get rid of all the words in my cabinets" phase a few years ago. Surprisingly enough, it can be difficult to tell the difference between Avocado oil an olive oil after awhile! (I wound up with labels that just said "A" and "O" on them, fyi)
I love my bamboo ziploc and drawer organizers too! Always remember to measure your spaces folks... buying to your house's specifications is a game changer!
You could put Velcro dots or blutack under the bamboo organisers to make sure they really stay put! 😊
I absolutely love long videos!!!! The longer the better!!! 😊❤😊❤
Wow I love those things for the mason jars that is awesome didn't know they even had anything like that thanks Becky
Love, love, love this type of content so thank you! I've been on an organizing mission for the past couple of years and every time I get one spot sorted, I sigh in relief. The under bathroom and kitchen sinks were heavenly to me. I bought a bronzy metal mesh 2 drawer unit for under the bathroom sink to organize my hair appliances (large bottom drawer), and for storing q-tips boxes, extra dental floss, etc (smaller top drawer)--it was like choirs of angels sang for me at that moment!!! The under kitchen sink was also transformational for both me and my love--we absolutely love it. The other project that brought great joy was when I purchased a metal sliding pull out drawer for a lower cabinet--this now houses all of our food storage containers and lids and has made our lives so much better. My husband thought I was spending too much on all of this until he helped me put it all together and now he is a convert to my OCD ways.🤣
I love all the little updates, Becky! ❤. I recently replaced all the hinges and door knobs in my house. I have slowly been switching everything over to an oil rubbed bronze; light fixtures, lamps, cabinet door pulls, etc. It’s so nice to look around and feel like it’s becoming a cohesive space.
Love the new lids on the spice jars & easier to use as well as pleasing to the eye. Great organization & motivation for us. Thank you.
I get the same anxiety if things get to cluttered. I am still organizing my kitchen but that is on hold until we have garden planted and chicks a coop. Hopefully by the end of this weekend we have that all accomplished. I started to break down boxes the first time you mentioned this in your former home. Thank you for sharing all you get done.
Hint: Magic eraser will take Sharpie off the tops of your used canning lids so when you reused they are not labeled incorrectly. I LOVE the wooden lids - they look a bit classy. Wondering how you feel about a Ratan hamper - it could pull the woods together for a little extra texture in the room.
I was surprised how your new cabinet knobs and pulls made the kitchen look so nice. I also love the spice lids. Everything looks so nice 😍
I just bought those bamboo lids as well. They look so nice on my dried fruits and snack jars. I love your station.
I've never really cared to make things match or look pretty as long as it functions. Old boxes and strips or cardboard are what I tend to use for organization, and a small reusable meijer bag they gave me with an order is what holds my reusable silicon bags as well as those stretch lid things
I'm so glad to see you "washed" the silicone lids before use. I've seen so many people just use the containers, etc, without washing them first. I really loved this video. 😊
I recently did the same...purchased the ziploc bag organizer and the one for foil, etc. The one I bought had a 15 inch compartment for parchment paper...I love it! I have a spice pull out cabinet and hated all the different shapes, colors and styles of spice jars so I bought all matching spice jars. I love that all my spices look the same, but mine are labeled with the labels that I received with them! Definitely makes a big difference with organization! Next up is my pantry. Love all your content Becky! Cannot wait to watch all the gardening videos you'll be posting soon! ❤
Becky for my entire life I thought I was the only OCD person about my kitchen to this degree well my friend I have met my match!! You give us the real deal and I love it you show people exactly the way life is as it should be. You are truly an angel you are so kind and you are so real I suppose that's why I enjoy your channel you are truly aunique. Keep up the blessings in life in speaking truth and wisdom into other people's ears.
Have a blessed day
just last month I found your channel and I love watching you and all your great fix ahead ideas. Wish you had been around when I raised 4 kiddos. Your so organized so that piece of foil that has been in our wall oven for some time makes me giggle that you havn't taken it out yet!! Keep up the great work, encouraging more young people to plan meals and hopefully grown and use real food
That piece of foil gets to me every time too. LOL
I am the same way I love having things match it brings a high to your day to see everything matching and organized, your are so right, it makes you want to to get in there and cook and experiment in the kitchen. Everything looks beautiful, it is the little touches that make the difference. I love all of the windows in your kitchen, the views are beautiful and once your garden space is finished it will be a WOW! Great video! God Bless!
You inspired me to be more organized. I’m looking at changing my kitchen knobs as well as more organization. I have a very small kitchen, but lots of items which are stored downstairs. It’s always a great feeling to clean refresh & organize. Thx!😊
I am a Greek from Kalamata, where we produce one of the best olive oils. Our olive oil has a deep green color, definitely not that yellowish one in your bottle. It also has a nice smell, kinda like grass with flowers. The one you have is either way too much processed or mixed with low quality oil.
An oleologist told me Costco Organic Olive oil is good - that's what we use.
Where I live in the Western Cape South Africa we have quite a few olive farms that produce olive oil (Greek immigrants) and good quality olive oil is green in colour with a clean aroma and taste. Once a year there is an olive feast a couple of towns away where you can taste test olive oils and all things olive oil.
My salt cellar is made from old olive trees that was made into various products for the kitchen. The salt cellar has a swivel lid that pivots at the back and closes with a sunken magnet.
I will be ordering me some of those wooden lids for my spices as it will complement the salt cellar and my wood cabinets (unpainted).
I lined the bottom of sink cabinet with peel and stick floor tiles. So easy to keep clean.
I have done the same thing in my kitchen and bathroom. works great
Great tip!
I did the same! Works great
I’m a professional organizer. Organizing makes all the difference for flow, productivity, and less stress.
You could put a wall file folder holder on the inside of one of your cabinet doors for your reusable silicon bags
That was brilliant, Becky! When I was making my Holiday cookies for the freezer, 2 of my recipes needed chilling. It was so hard to scoop portions. Yep, you are brilliant. Organizing is so much fun...when it works, haha.
Funny, I got those organizers for my daughters kitchens for Christmas this year. My old house doesnt have enough drawer space so I have mine hanging in the pantry. We all love them
A good middle ground between you and Josh on the label issue would be to cut the labels down bit and put them on the bottom. That way he can check what they are and you don't have to see them
Becky, I love your kitchen! You have that wonderful island with so many drawers to keep small appliances & flour in, etc. I love your flour & sugar drawer! And I love your white cabinets & counters. They look so clean & also make the kitchen look large & airy! I also love the narrow shelf that you put your spice bottles on! Handy & very attractive with the new lids. I know what you mean about all the organizational things you bought & installed in your kitchen. It DOES make a difference on how you feel when your kitchen is organized in a pretty way. And, since your kitchen is actually in the same room as your dining area & your office, it makes sense to have nicer soap dispensers, rather than plastic ones with the labels on them. 😊
I got those under cabinet for my bathroom and love it. Then a pull out spice rack I save so much space with.
I wish there was a "love" button because I loved this video. So many ideas and inspiration which makes me motivated to get organized. Keep up the good work, Becky, you are the best!!
Put you silicone bags in pocket organizers on the door of the bottom shelf. Like file folder hang storage.
Awesome! You are a great encouragement to all wives, grandmas and moms to keep on trekking to create a warm and organized home for our families. Thank you!
Hi Becky ❤
You go through a lot of cooking oils in your weekly videos. Why don’t you keep the opened bottles in the lazy Susan, or in your pantry so you can refill quickly. Keep unopened bottles downstairs in your inventory.
I always double bag my garbage bags. That way when I pull out the trash, another one is waiting for me. It also keeps the spare stack at the bottom of the can clean in case I have trash leakage.
I keep my silicone reusabl e bags in acrylic shelving baskets I attached to the inside of my doors to make them easy access.
I like the new look of your kitchen and I think it’s great that you want to personalize it to what you like. In fact, I would replace the knobs and handles on the island and office are so they would all be the same, not just the same metal. Although Josh’s surprised “Brass?!” was funny. I hope he’s not upset.
The wooden lids on your jars look great! 😊
I love your videos Becky! Everytime you upload a new one my whole family and I sit and watch right after dinner together. My youngest calls it her bedtime story. From my family to yours we are sending big hugs. ❤️
For the silicone bags try a magazine/file holder. If the height can fit in one of your drawers that might work. That way it'll be upright instead of laying down. 😊❤️ Thank you for sharing your life with us! You're a blessing Becky! Have a great day!🌻🌻🌻
I love the wooden tops on the jars. I've been thinking about something other than the regular lid and ring for my jars because sometimes it can be a hassle. It will have to wait until next month because this month I just bought the silicone bags and reusable paper towels. You have inspired me to create less waste! Thank you for all your inspirations.
You got some really cute things. It's so nice seeing you get some things that'll help you & you'll enjoy also. You work hard it's so good to see you do this for yourself. Another great Video girly. Thank you!😊❤
Becky. I truly enjoy watching you. You are a great inspiration.
I like my cleancult dish soap dispenser, and I've had it over a year. It has a gray silicone sleeve at the bottom, like your new spray bottles for cleaners. The dispenser puts out a smaller amount of soap, which I like for less waste, and it is easy to grab and nice and neutral.
Your kitchen is lovely!❤
I have those lids you put on your jars and I love them. Love your home and especially your kitchen. I have a very small kitchen and use mason jars a lot for storage even the refrigerator. You are one energetic gal. Always busy.
I love those wooden lids for the quart jars . Having an organized kitchen feels wonderful. I'm sure most women can relate. You go girl... 😊
Hey Becky, I went through the same under-sink - proceess last weekend. Do NOT be ashamed :o) ! Sopa dispenser: There are soap - pumps that fit on Mason jars... maybe and idea that matches that corner? Keep doing what you are doing!!!
Love the bamboo organizers. I bought some that are separate, which works great for me. I have only 3 drawers in my kitchen and I can't lay them down. They stand up in the drawer and I can still access the holes. With mine, it says to roll them then insert, works great.
I totally understand what you mean about getting excited over the pretty containers and Mason lids. I redid my whole spice cabinet with matching jars and redid my laundry room shelf and use glass jars for my detergent and labeled everything all pretty and just makes me smile now when using them.
