I just want to say thank you. I have anxiety, and I've had a recent flare up.

My house got so overwhelmingly disgusting that I just didn't know where to start, which made my anxiety worse. I came across your awesome videos, some of which I binge watched multiple times - so thanks to you, I got my home back to a pristine level, and am finally feeling so much better again.

This is why I’m here. My husband gets so frustrated with me. But I totally give him the right to be. He’s not a dirty man, he is very clean and puts everything where it goes, and I just throw things everywhere. I’ve been putting things off because I’m so anxious about where to start or what to do.

Lol seriously

[@SunflowerSpotlight]

As a writer, this is key for me. Perfectionism is the death of all writing. I’m trying to not shoot for perfect, but perfectly acceptable, and I can go from there. An idea is of no use if it lives only between my ears. I could have the next huge book in my head and no one, including me, would know if it never escapes onto the page. Perfectionism is a horrible trait for so many reasons. 😖

[@KathyHussey063]

@@SunflowerSpotlight Jeez, I'm a writer too and your comment, if I didn't know better, I would think I'd written it. Same problem here; how do I relax enough to concentrate on writing, to let my mind get into and stay in that flow state it gets into when I'm into writing, when my to do list is NEVER EVER finished or even close to finished? I used to think when my kids all left home I'd finally have time to do some of the things I wanted to do. But now, although I've a lot less work to do, my age, health and being slower all around mean I'm still up to my neck in it. I try to force myself to keep some kind of schedule for writing but that ability appears to have gone the same route my quickness did ....away from me. lol. I need to figure this out .

I had white towels for years but I added some darker colors - olive green and medium gray - for times when someone (guests) would feel better wiping hands on a darker colored hand towel. That has saved me from soaking and bleaching.

[@EmailgroupieESLEducation]

Yea I did that years ago. I also stopped buying red clothes as it used to bleed on things. Makes life so much easier and darker clothes easier to clean with kids. My son only wears black socks. At camp kids took his white socks and he alsl came home with dirty socks so then I got black socks (gold toe) no one has those and I never had to keep buying socks.

[@staceykersting705]

I stopped buying anything white. Give up that highly toxic cancer-causing bleach. Wash in cold water. No need to sort colors. Rarely use my dryer...clothes stay so 'brand new' when u put them right on the hangers to dry. I'm tall, so I can't afford any shrinkage.

I’ve worked as a maid for the past 5 years and I can clean any of our hotel rooms in 10 minutes. That includes stripping the bed, making it, setting out fresh towels and amenities, wiping all the surfaces, taking out the garbage and replacing the bag and sweeping. All that in 10 minutes. The key is that the rooms are rarely that dirty to begin with and there is no clutter. Whenever their are spills that have hardened on or forgotten items we have to put away it takes twice as long

[@Devilishka7]

That's just time for one room though. For a while I worked in cleaning summer houses and 3 people were sent to clean one house spotless within 1hr. Cleaning own house where there are many more stuff not just basics, would take way longer.

[@edennis3202]

You must have a better quality clientele than the average motel. I worked as maid in a local motel; the mess people make is astonishing, but they do it because they don't care. Pizza boxes and used condoms under the bed, hair everywhere, women dying their hair in the bathroom, old guys leaving toilets full of blood and poop splashes. I could do a 2-bed room in 15 to 20 minutes, but that included a full cleaning of the bathtub and tiles and a deep clean of the toilet. I still missed a used condom under a bed once, but we weren't issued flashlights.

My mother taught me how to iron. She ironed everything; I toned that down a bit. Still, it's a lot of work. When I got really ill, I wasn't able to do any ironing at all. So things were just folded and put in the closests. To my amazement, almost all the wrinkles would be out of clothes after 15 minutes of wearing them! The body warmth and movement did the trick. Never ironed a T-Shirt or jeans again. Saved me tons of work. Sharing to help you save time too.

That's why there's such a big meth problem among working wives and mothers. Unless you're very young, and energetic, too, you can't do it if you have a family AND a job. The Flylady method helps, but even she isn't mentally geared for people who have too little time and/or energy and she has no sympathy for it. I was rather shocked at her response to a lady on Facebook; Flylady has zero interest in anyone but stay-at-home women who are just too depressed or discouraged to clean. She says she just wants people to get out of their chairs and move, but what about those of us who do too MUCH moving? We're left twisting in the wind.

This is the first cleaning video where I actually felt it was practical & realistic & you actually understand the stress & difficulty of keeping things clean. I appreciate the different outlook you offered as well. I do have a very beautifully designed home & you're right, so many ppl don't get to live in the style & beauty that I get to live in. So many ppl don't even know how to decorate their home like I can & I should feel blessed to be able to clean it & enjoy it rather than take it for granted. I really appreciate you offering that mindset. That's big for me. I had the idea to get into a habit of cleaning of doing 5 mins of cleaning for every hour that Im home. I work from home so it would be a nice break from the computer for me & I could make it fun with music for the kids too. Like a quick Cleaning Party every hour. I'm the worst at cleaning up after myself so maybe this will be a good start. We'll see. 😊 Thx!

8:36 what a wonderful and grateful way of thinking

[@zzevonplant]

Gratefulness goes such a long way. Like, I used to have really bad mental health issues (I mean, I still have them I just manage it much better and feel much better these days) and addiction and things. And I found that making lists of what you're grateful for every day (or week, as much as needed) or thanking God - if you believe, I do, but I know not everyone does - for things every day can REALLY make a massive difference in how you feel. I even thank God and add to those lists things that wouldn't seem like good things. Like, certain struggles and challenges I still put on the list because, most of those things make you stronger or teach you something, so you can even find ways to be grateful for hard stuff. Maybe you don't need this advice, but maybe you do, so I thought I'd put it here in case it would help you out, or anyone else that reads it. :) Merry Christmas.

I’ve always done most of this naturally, but not to that extent. Your place is very cute! Good for you for teaching your kids!

[@TheSundayStylist]

Thank you!!! I am definitely going to make sure my boys will never be a man-child 😅

[@brittanylee4279]

Just the tips/hacks I needed. Will be rewatching many times until I master these. Thank You!!

[@anoushkaarmstrong7673]

"don't put it down, put it away" !!!! i read this 30 years ago in a hospitality book ( an elderly lady giving advise to a messy newlywed ) and you are the first person i hear saying it since then- i haven't all that much implemented it over the years, getting better !!

[@sarahjensen4793]

Realising I prefer to do things before they need to be done and also prefer doing a little bit every day instead of weekend chores has changed my life.

[@sarahjensen4793]

Something you want to do, rather than have to do! So true!

[@TheSundayStylist]

Yes don;t let things build up until they become an off-putting and overwhelming chore 🙌

[@campervanchick8916]

Thank you for this awesome episode. I am old enough to know better but 'adulting' can tire you out at times, and you feel defeated. I found this refreshing and soooo encouraging. And also, I am so happy you didn't use the word 'guys'. "hi guys" "you guys" "bye guys", which is so prevalent in other KZbin clips. It was a pleasure listening to this.

[@juliet3827]

SO GLAD TO SEE THE KIDS HELPING OUT!! Very important.

[@stingies23]

[@JaneLame]

Her house looks great btw. Simple colours, proper amount of plants and decorations, not too busy on the eye.

[@kallet1179]

I appreciate your last tip: done is better than perfect. This sounds like avoiding procrastination or excuses to postpone things! 👍

[@TrinaMadeIt]

My favourite is clean as you go. It makes it so much easier. Also the short evening routine. It’s something I’ve started doing and it really does make things a lot easier.

[@TheSundayStylist]

Yes! It is way easier to keep things clean as you go instead of letting a huge mess build up :) thanks so much for watching!

[@shrimptempuraasmr3742]

I am moving after 6 yrs... I’ve had so much anxiety about down sizing and decluttering because a lot of things are not going with me. This video was very inspirational and helpful... Thank you

[@TheSundayStylist]

It is honestly one of the best things I have EVER done, good luck with your move 💖💫💖

[@BeatriceWells]

The struggle is real... We moved this past Dec, even though we went from a small 2bed/1 bath apt to a 4bed/2bath home, we still declutter and have plenty to sell (at a garage sale or online)...

[@christopher1195]

I love what you said right before habit number 9. You try to appreciate that you have all these things to clean. You are very fortunate and do have a beautiful home. Thank you for the video.

[@greeeneyes91]

finally a video with original advice on how to keep your place tidy and not a repetition of the same 5 tips that everybody already knows. thank you!

[@HM279]

I work in IKEA headquarters in Sweden, and was quite happy about your home 😉 you really have made a great use of our products!

[@TheSundayStylist]

+Helena Andrade wow really? My ex husband used to work at IKEA in Australia over ten years ago and the whole time he worked there we never bought a single thing with his staff discount 🤣

[@HM279]

THE SUNDAY STYLIST are you serious? 😂😂😂 what an opportunity wasted 😜 with the amount of products you have now from IKEA, you almost deserve a discount 😉

[@sharingiscaring.2578]

I appreciate your rule "do less more often" thanks dear for sharing such a nice video, stay blessed 📝🌿

[@annes5279]

Instead of discarding clothes you can't donate, give them to stores that recycle like h&m. You'll get a discount in return 😊

[@vanessablanc2074]

I like the idea of making the first place you look for something, the home for something! That’s new to me. 🤗

[@micheleschnelker4232]

love this! "homeless clutter" - yep! i definitely have some of this in my life. "do things whether they seem to need doing or not." OMGosh! MIND BLOWN!!! This will make such a difference for me. THANK YOU!!! :) :) :)

[@thecatlady3501]

Thank you for this. My two biggest struggles are the laundry and cleaning dishes. I’ve gotten better at the dishes and cleaning the kitchen every day. But I will work more on the clean as you go. The laundry is such a dreadful task for me. Especially getting it put away! I have that same exact problem of having too much and I get so exhausted at the end of the day. I’m going to work on purging and donating items so they aren’t over stuffing my drawers. Thanks!

[@TheSundayStylist]

I first got started with cleaning routines 12 years ago when my eldest was a baby and just worked things into my own routine, always remember to be patient with your progress 🙌💫🙌 thanks you so much for watching 💖

[@AmyAllways]

also: if you don't mind- just leave out the folding! not everyone can be Kon Marie. As long as the clothes are clean and put away. This saves me so much time and effort!

[@BeatriceWells]

My issue also! We moved in our new home last Dec and I kept on top of laundry and dishes - till about Valentine's Day... I'm getting back on track!

[@andreabaxter7966]

Laundry is my favorite! I love the clean smell and hanging it on the line in nice weather! I also love dishes bc awesome smelling soap and bamboo drying rack make me smile. My struggle is emptying the dish rack, so hubby does that ; )

[@Setokaiba1fan24]

Clean has you go is a golden one. I use this for everything

[@Sandra9135]

Excellent video because it includes all the essentials and for us many perfectionists, "Done is better than perfect" stops us from build up and procrastinating that robs us of our weekends. Thank you "Sunday Stylist"! and Thank you to "It's Helga" for listing the points and where to find them on the video. Wishing you all a kind and more organised holiday season!

[@maggiemay0328]

“A place for everything and everything in its place”. I saw that quote on a piece of Torquay pottery! Love that quote! ❤️

[@cl6998]

This is so helpful. Thank you!! I always feel so resentful when I am cleaning. I will try to implement these habits in the new year!

[@FamilySmith]

I really like the "Would I buy it again?" question (more forgivable than the "have I worn it in the last year?" question). Also, the keeping of a basket in your car for donatable items. One more goodie I picked up is the "if I can sell it for $50.00 or more, and am pretty sure it will sell quickly, then I'll list it" idea! Sometimes I wonder what to do with items I'm not using/needing/wanting but am reluctant to let go of if I paid a lot of money on them! Thanks so much!

[@TheFLOPY3032]

You are such a great mom teaching your boys to help around the house , your house looks wonderful .

[@FeeFeeRN]

I just started my decluttering journey. This was great to see! I can tell you’re a really hard worker!

[@curli-lettey4319]

Funny how it's so relaxing to watch someone else clean! I love that braided ball pillow and the water jugs with the spigot to hold the liquid detergents! I'm going to copy that idea.

[@TheSundayStylist]

+curli-lettey i know I love watching other people clean up their mess too 🤗 so satisfying!!!

[@marjomi]

I love your videos because I can listen and not have to stop everything I'm doing, sit down, and watch them. Most of the time I prefer to listen to videos not actually watch videos. I'm too busy to watch them. Thank you. Edit: Except for your video of spending 45 minute to deep clean each room; I "watched" that one and loved it! ❤️

[@Prettynickle]

My husband always turned his t shirts etc outside right and it saved me soooo much time when doing laundry. I asked him who taught him to do that and coming from a family of 5 kids... his Mom did. I always appreciated he did that. What a time saver!!

[@TahtahmesDiary]

Girl you just blew my mind folding laundry in the kitchen. WHY do I always take it right past that exact place in my home straight to the table or the sofa and complain in my mind that its all too short and hurts my back???? What have I been thinking? I am ashamed of my brain atm lol

[@JessicaBurgo]

I need to get better at a daily cleaning routine 😂 make my life easier

[@welllivedlife-desireeg2804]

I really like the evening routine. Dishes, counters and floors. Makes it easier to have a clean kitchen to start the day.

[@TheSundayStylist]

Definitely the best way to start the day is the night before!!!

[@FoodShowFan]

You know what...Moms are amazing creatures!! 🙏😍👏👏👏

[@majamaxthreebern4044]

Thanks for the video content! Apologies for chiming in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you researched - Mahorrla Control Clutter Method (google it)? It is an awesome one off guide for decluttering your home minus the hard work. Ive heard some super things about it and my work buddy at very last got astronomical results with it.

[@karonfrench1012]

This has been one of my favourite videos so far. This has been my mantra for many years. Everything makes perfect sense. 👍❤️

[@TheSundayStylist]

I’m so happy you enjoyed it’s my favourite video I’ve made, all those tips are 100% what I do to keep my place under control 🙏🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻

[@iamloved8985]

Absolutely LOVE the idea of using a pretty bottle for my glasses!

[@TheSundayStylist]

Easiest way to keep the out and accessible but scratch free 🤓💫🙌

[@jasperthiry9748]

I strive too have my life together like this

[@simplyvella9875]

The Sunday Stylist is by far my favorite company for cleaning. I've watched these videos soo many time. Very great way of thinking when it comes to your approach to cleaning. Thanks ah mil!

[@MinvlyMusic]

Winning at adulting......... I would love some of that 😫 thank you for all of your amazing tips. I loved the one about the first spot you look for lost things

[@tiavinarakotobe7253]

I have to say the tips regarding the towels are totally life changing !! thanks for the advice

[@TheSundayStylist]

Soooo much easier!!! Thanks for watching 🙌

[@nikolinarusev4279]

I love t his video. Immediately went back to reject shop and bought a new insert that supposed to help me organise my kitchen. I also live in a unit and I'm in desperate need of decluttering

[@IAmCatElf]

I love the idea that if you've lost something, the first place you look for it is where you should probably store it from now on. That's actually a useful tip that I haven't heard of before!!

[@littleNica98]

Lmao your son cleaning the bathroom mirror made me smile! 😂😂

[@husnawardak767]

Yes so cute.

[@swanlilly100]

Her kids are so nice

[@beckywood3]

Me too😁

[@gabrielwilson653]

He must be a very hard working boy......

[@anotherpastime]

Just beautiful. I know this took years of good habits and learning to let go of clutter, this is commendable. Your aesthetic is so calming, your style and personality come across as so cute too. Be proud of your family and your home! You've done great work. Thank you so much for sharing

[@Rose_Romano71]

I loved your apartment with the white kitchen, views from the kitchen is amazing ! ❤

[@TheSundayStylist]

Me too - it was a tiny apartment and incredibly hot with afternoon sun - I looked at the price to rent that apartment now is $850 per WEEK 😱

[@Rose_Romano71]

@@TheSundayStylist that’s ridiculous! I’m in Melbourne not much better paying 550 a week, landlords of charging, whatever they want to and getting away with it.., it’s becoming impossible, too rent,

[@margaretfinney6546]

I keep five bags folded in the bottom of my trash baskets in the kitchen and in my bathroom trash baskets. Try it I think you will love it.💕💕 love your suggestions as always.
