To anyone who struggles with cleaning and often feels overwhelmed/can't keep up, even after receiving all the standard advice of "take it 1 step at a time, do it in parts" etc. Investing in a robot vacuum has literally been such a game changer. As someone who used to sweep & vacuum over 3x/week, my friends got me a robot vacuum for Christmas. It helps so much with pets, and acts as a motivator to tidy up my clutter so that the robot can navigate my space. You don't even have to get a name-brand one, there's some out there for $100 or so that work great :)

[@awholeworldoflove]

Hi! What brand did you get?

[@sakurazukamorisubaru]

this little f*cker needs regular cleaning tho, especially if you have long hair, it's like one room, and then it doesn't move, cause hair is all around rotating parts 🥲 so you need to unscrew everything and remove hair\dust that's my experience at least

[@klausbowpie]

@@sakurazukamorisubaru Can I just say, I have three cats- one long haired, and two house rabbits who scatter hay everywhere, in a tiny home, and my robot vac only needs a little daily maintenance, none of which involves unscrewing anything, and the time that’s saved by keeping my floors 90% cleaner more than makes up for what is 5 minutes of unwinding some hairs from the sweeper bits daily, and once a week clearing the wheels of debris. I think you need a batter robot vac- look for one that can deal with pets- they manage hair so much better.

[@klausbowpie]

@@awholeworldoflove I have a Eufy robot vacuum that I love. I’ve had it for two years and it’s been brilliant.

[@sakurazukamorisubaru]

I love that you didn't use a bunch of disposable cleaning products. So many cleaning videos are chock-full of disposable wipes, paper towels, swiffers, etc. It's so refreshing watching someone demonstrating that you don't need all that waste to clean and have a clean home.

[@ritaevergreen7234]

Or lots of different cleaners. I use only a couple and then use reusable clothes that’s eventually can get put in the washer.

[@jazzyjasper7785]

Yeah, and a lot of the cleaning products were quite natural and accessible too, like the lemon juice, white vinegar, baking soda…

[@maddog74]

[@TakaiDesu]

Honestly water , alcohol 70 and vinegar goes a long way! But since I discovered multipurpose cleaner, it makes everything SO much easier, so I basically can clean my entire home with just 1 product And ah, reusable wipes all the ways! The only disposable wipe I use is an eletrostatic one that can make my mirrors perfect (without that fabric little treads) but I can reuse it a couple times too

[@wolfsbane1991]

Literally. I'm actually not hugely into minimalism as a style, but I gravitate towards it because I've found it just makes cleaning SO much easier. It's such a huge mental hurdle having to move 120 items before you can even start cleaning and wiping off dust.

One thing I do for really old, sticky oil (like on range hood) is to rub it with some fresh cooking oil and then wash that off. The sticky, rancid oil breaks down and mixes with the new oil (like dissolves like) and then the fresh oil is easier to clean off with soapy water.

[@anaidkc]

That's an excellent tip! Thanks!

[@fjp9]

there was a video where someone used an alcohol based gel hand sanitizer to clean the oil off their range hood. i don’t know if it works better or worse than your method though.

[@angelforanimals7809]

I’ll give you the same advice my Rheumatoid Arthritis Dr gave me. Don’t push yourself too hard. Pick one room a day, clean it, dust, organize, declutter, vacuum or mop and just give it a really thorough cleaning. Take breaks if you need to. There are things that need to be done every day, like dishes and taking out the trash, toilets you clean as often as needed, but bathrooms don’t need a deep clean every day. One room a day with just picking up other rooms, keeps the house clean and allows you to not have to be cleaning all the time. I literally used to vacuum, scrub floors, change the bedding on my bed, clean the toilet, tub and sinks, wipe down counters and cupboards…every day! He said I was killing mystic and he was right!

[@RSVD84]

When we use to have cats before our twins lol I use to clean good once a week now it’s like once a month. Keeping up with cats is easier but I love the kids and the fact that it’s my kids now. When they get older and can help clean up then maybe we’ll add a cat or two again. My spouse and I had cats most of the time of our marriage but we were blessed with twins and gave our cats to a close family member because it was to much at the time. Now they have grown to love the cats so we can’t take them back.

If they’re in your carpet it’s likely they’re already in your clothes too. With proper regular cleaning you can keep the numbers at bay but they’re too small to ever get rid of completely unfortunately. Absolutely ruined my life that’s for sure 😢

[@cinna._.bunny00]

Just a tip for everyone, mixing baking soda and vinegar does nothing to help clean. Mixing them together neutralizes it, which is the foaming you’ll see happen. Both are great for cleaning but preferably used separately.

[@wiolan2440]

thats right!

[@vaderladyl]

Yes the only thing it does is neutralizing smells and kills bacteria but won't really clean.

[@Gay-Icon]

So how would you clean with them? Do you just use water for each?

[@cinna._.bunny00]

@@Gay-Icon for the garbage disposal- just ice, lemon slices, baking soda and hot water would be fine. When using vinegar you can dilute with water and essential oils for a better smell. Sometimes you don’t even need to dilute it like if you’re cleaning the washing machine.

[@Gay-Icon]

@@cinna._.bunny00 thank you so much!!

[@liliath2379]

This is great - some really good ideas here - I just wanted to note that where I live (Toronto) most apartment and condo buildings do NOT allow you to sweep any dirt over the side of your balcony, or especially dump water so it pours over the edge (!), because then it just all ends up on your downstairs neighbours’ balconies, or even all down the side of the building. So although doing that feels satisfying for your own cleaning, it’s better to sweep into a dustbin and throw it away, and mop with a bucket in such a way that the water isn’t pooling over the edge, but just using enough water to clean your own space.

[@orhunova]

I'm surprised to see only 1 comment about this, because I cannot imagine such balcony cleaning in my country either.

[@kaitlinsshmaitlin]

Just a warning for you guys about using lemons in your garbage disposal! Even sliced into thin slices, it will eventually clog the disposal and you will have to manually clean it out - icky job. Vinegar is good enough! This doesn’t detract from the rest of the video, I loved it, it’s so helpful and such a serene vibe. Thanks for sharing your cleaning tips with us🥰

[@SometimeAgo65]

When I use to do deep cleaning, or seasonal cleaning, I would do one room a day. Sometime it could take two days to finish an entire room but that's cleaning from ceiling, walls, floor and everything else in the room. Now due to health issues, I hire someone to do these things. I love a clean, fresh, decorated, comfy home

[@sharlyt3557]

An actual real deep clean complete with genuine embarrassment with an attitude of "oh well" = most busy housekeepers. Thanks so much for this chill and great cleaning video. Was very calming for me after a long day at work. 😎 I love seeing how other ppl clean and the ideas we switch between us in the comment section. I do many of the same things you do and some a little differently. (Stop here if you don't want to read my 7 routines/tricks below, thanks 🙃) Per a tip for cleaning the toilet: I use toilet paper to wipe away the dust and loose bits 1st too but I also use it as my tool for the actual wiping part with cleaner. Toss in the bowl, grossness gets flushed away, which means I don't have to clean a dirty tool afterward or use a bunch of paper towels or continue to smell & see it in the trash even for just a few more minutes until I change the trashbag; I just get rid of it asap! I use juuuust enough toilet paper as a barrier between my hand and the yuck. Then I take my shower and clean my shower 1st, then me. So my toilet is always last. I enjoy cleaning my shower area so I don't think of it as a chore. I try to shower last so I can dry wipe major water-pooled spots like the shower caddy. So after I'm dry I just use that towel to pass over the still really drowned spots. I wash my shower curtain once a week in hot water and vinegar. I spray high traffic touch areas with a disinfectant every night (controls, light switches, knobs, etc). If I used a candle, I'll blow it out, outside so the smoke doesn't change the entire purpose of me burning that candle. I tried other snugging techniques but the other snuffings, to my great unfortunate discovery, still release smoke anyway. So it's just quicker and simpler for me to walk the candle outside and blow it out, out there, so the smoke can JUST LEAVE. (If it's super late I'll just put my lid back on and keep up with the soot so the buildup doesn't get too bad. I can't stand a dirty candle.) When the sun is shining bright, I like to lay out my toilet tools (scrub brush, plunger, holder, etc.) in the sun to dry after I clean them outside. (I also do this with my trashcans so they can air out before I replace the liner.) Think about it. You can remove stains (even poop stains from infant clothes) just by leaving them in the sun for awhile so I definitely use the sun's power every chance I get. After wet mopping and rinsing the mop and bucket out, I'll sit the mop in a solution mix of bleach for a few minutes then rinse both and hang to dry outside with the mop bucket turned over. After everyone has gone to sleep so they are no longer using the bathroom, I'll put some wonderful cleaner like fabulouso or pine allen in my toilet bowl and leave the lid up & the door open a crack just for the scent in the room. Since our bathroom is halfway down our hallway & we have to pass it between bedrooms and other living areas, trust me, this idea is purely: Lovely❣💯

Appreciate your calming voice and the music - so many YT channels have overly intense narration! love the tips too and can't wait to try this out

[@Elemenoful]

Cleaning is overwhelming but I love when these videos include having to clean hard water build up so I get to remember how awesome it is I just don’t have to deal with that extra issue where I live!!

[@sum4yaahm3d]

ahh i needed this! not only was this helpful, but it was super satisfying to watch!! tysm krist, ily

[@kristyu]

thank you thank you

[@chastitybrown7812]

I so love the quality of your videos. I live in a household of 6 , so the house is often dirty ( load of dishes, both trash filled, stacks of clothes ...etc) . I'm the one that mostly clean while my mom is out for work. Plus I'm a clean freak so I enjoy it . 🤪

[@joshow926]

My living situation is similar! I learnt to enjoy stuff like dishes and laundry because I ended up doing them so often. >.< Not quite a clear freak but cleaning is definitely satisfying!

[@margarethooper4951]

Such an inspiring video with tons of useful ideas! I followed you through every day (not quite in order) and got so turned on to cleaning that I even scrubbed my walls and ceilings. I'm enjoying my space again, many thanks!

[@nadiaayah8208]

I have to finish packing and cleaning my shared apartment by myself by Sunday. With everything being everywhere it has made me extremely overwhelmed and anxious. This video was amazing and I will definitely be using it to help guide me as I get this apartment move out ready

[@sofiacampos7356]

thank you so much for this organized plan! i am trying this spring to focus less on my schoolwork (high school homeschooler), and spend more time helping my family when it comes to cleaning. I'm going to show my family this and hopefully, this plan works for us. i feel motivated and excited. thx again. 😊❤

[@bethanymann3634]

I'm embarrassed to admit I had a knee-jerk reaction of frustration before I asked myself... why? Why is it a bad thing for you to prioritize family over schoolwork? I was a public high school student ten years ago and then went to college for four years, and while I wouldn't trade any of it, I'm still having to unlearn a lot of the stressed-out and messy lifestyle by watching videos like this. If you can learn how to love taking care of your home and your family now, it'll pay off 1000% in like ten years!! I know your family's proud of your attitude 💛

[@mossyoakmom8880]

[@ainiali783]

Omg thank you for this!!! I usually do allll in one day of weekend it so tiring but with doing part of it everyday make it much better

[@lily-fy8xp]

Krist omg I used watch you when I was in middle school and I graduated high school last year!! I was just trying to remember your name 😭😭 and I couldn't but I'm trying to get better at keeping my place clean and book here you are! Glad to see you are still uploading and living life

[@jvld_]

aaa love this!! my housemate and i literally just revamped our weekly cleaning schedule so this is super motivating

[@moniquebrown18]

Cleaning my toilets is truly the bane of my existence. I have a husband and 2 sons that truly have no aim or shame.

Make it their job since they’re the messy ones :p

Motivational and soothing. Inspired to deep clean myself (;

I agree, a clean home is refreshing, and yes, flowers are a nice treat!

[@tajthehuman6312]

Just the motivation I needed since I've procrastinated cleaning for far too long. Thanks for such an awesome video!

[@charmbitten6878]

oh my freaking god, i'm so glad videos like this exist. sure, i know how to do a lot of household chores, but what if i start living on my own when i get a job already? thanks for this, queen !!

[@mrs.natashaellwood8634]

Fact: Mattresses that do no have mattress protectors or get vacuumed regularly; double in weight every 5 years due to dust mites!!! More things to clean/organise: -Vent in bathroom -Blinds/Curtins -With a screw driver, align all screw in electrical outlet covers to face the dame direction -Wipe dust off of door hinges

[@vaderladyl]

Not only dust mites but the fecal matter from them, dirt, dust and actual dead skin cells that comes from us!

[@shayferreira2159]

WOW I will make sure I use my mattress protector!!

[@JJ-of7hz]

How long we should deep clean? Once every month?

[@vaderladyl]

@@JJ-of7hz You can deep clean as often as you want but usually it is done depending on how dirty things get. Many people do it every six months to 9-12 months at the least. Things like blinds, curtains, rugs for example can be done every 6 -12 months more or less. Oven, fridge, shampooing upholstery, from 3 to 6 month or more often and so on.

[@lacunalshadow]

doubles in weight? pretty sure that's wrong, I don't have a mattress protector and I have never vacuumed my mattress (I never heard of vacuuming a mattress before in my life, and I don't think mine is even vacuumable?) and I've had it for 10+ years and I can still easily pick it up, it is definitely NOT 4x it's weight, or even 3x.

[@okpok3089]

The way you wash your home is so ecological 💞 thank you for our planet 💞

[@leonhy9470]

this is the most satisfying and soothing video I’ve ever watched!

[@tina4961]

It's literally 5x dustier where I live because there's a dirt road out front and a field behind our house plus so much clutter to sort out so.. I already feel tired just thinking about it. But this is a good start! This video is so satisfying to watch that I'd like to do something like this too. Thanks for the cool tips and inspo! 👍🏼 EDIT: Just a question - what solution or cleaning products do you use to clean the TV?

[@cjbird7121]

if you have a central heating/cooling system using an allergen filter can help cut down on dust a great deal. Air purifiers also help keep dust levels down. I use on in my childs bedroon=m

[@huitrecouture]

Get a dumpster.

[@cathycoryell2351]

Isopropyl alcohol, or a lightly damp cloth, wipe TV surfaces. Use dry Towel following quickly, if your cloth is too wet. There is also electronics wipes, in the cleaning aisle. Used on cell phones for years, with no issues. Yes, disposable, but phones get gross, fast.

[@julianskinner3697]

Ok look up Dana k white

​@@julianskinner3697She and Clutterbug are the ultimate home organizing duo!!

[@mackenzierivercasey6752]

It takes me on average 6 hours on a day off while motivated and highly caffeinated to clean an 800 square foot basement apartment with one bedroom and one bath (no stops)! lol! That's Just for a point of reference for anyone else who feels overwhelmed at times lol! That's the dishes all the laundry, sweep, vaccume and mop the floors and deep clean my fridge and reorganize my entire closet and dresser as well as just wash down everything and organize the kitchen and the bathroom entirely scrub the bath the toilet the sink etc, water the plants, wash the windows and mirrors lol....it's basically one working day. It's a lot, but it's worth it. The SNEAKY bit is KEEPING it that way! I've turned to putting little passive aggressive notes around the house for both myself and my partner to KEEP IT CLEAN LMFAO! Like....RINSE DISHES AFTER EACH USE AND BE THANKFUL YOU WERE ABLE TO MAKE A MEAL! Right above the sink and a little heart after LMFAO! It's tough love for the both of us because we cook SO much and both hate doing it lmfao....even though once it's done each time I ask myself why I procrastinated in the first place!!! Gahh! Sometimes you gotta just let it be messy and learn to get out and find some joy outside of the home too! It's good to have a balance ESPECIALLY if you both work a lot!

[@vaderladyl]

That is a normal amount of time for that square footage. I know, I do clean houses for a iiving.

[@TheGilbalfas]

This warms me gently into the task of cleaning my home without stress. Thankyou!

[@radiateyoga]

Krist!!! This video is so good. Thank you. We recently had to let our cleaning lady go 😢 as much as I tried to work with her, homegirl was not clicking with my definition of “clean”. Cleaning is such a huge part of my zen and if it’s not done with love and attention to detail, it only creates more anxiety for me. Now that I’m looking for someone, I have to clean while balancing work, building my KZbin channel, cooking and family time. This video is gold!! Yesterday I started with laundry day (went a bit into the kitchen) and I feel so accomplished. Great tips. Of course I am now subscribed to your channel. 🎉

[@LittleBlueJug]

I love these deep cleaning videos that start out with an already clean house...

[@PastelCoconut]

Thank you for this! I'm going to use some of your methods to clean around my house. Using a cloth soaked in vinegar for around sink taps... genius. My family's way of doing it involves plastic bags, so your way seems a lot easier and less clunky to do!

[@jocelyn-r]

Watching this video was so relaxing and inspiring. I do some cleaning every day to keep on top of my home so it doesn't get overwhelming, especially since we're a family of 4 with a cat that sheds a lot. It still gets overwhelming haha but watching you helps. Thank you

[@keda.23]

This was one of the best, most satisfying, most useful cleaning video ive seen

[@edelalbazy]

I just spent 5 hours cleaning my 1 bedroom apartment which was already visibly clean. Now I feel content and satisfied. I don't like cleaning per se, but I LOVE the sense of accomplishment that follows.

[@christinawatkinsyoutube]

as a European I am always mindblown at Garbage disposals haha!! we don't use that in Germany. I also live in a shared flat which isn't nearly as pretty as this one, so it feels like everything is gross and dirty no matter how often I clean! I really appreciate this vid!

[@brenda-xb2xz]

ahhhh such a beautiful video!! i loved all the shots and aesthetic, hope you enjoyed making it too!

[@user-jh6eo9hj3f]

these videos makes me feel so calm

[@marinakaraneuskaya7113]

It is so satisfying to watch and now cleaning doesn't seem to be the unsolvable problem

[@amandacartier3173]

for people like me who feel like I have to do everything all at once, I'm so excited to do this and adjust it so cleaning becomes habit

[@bubukay]

I love you, thank you!!! I love the narration and accecability of products - feels very rea ♡

[@th3azscorpio]

This is so relaxing to watch. Great cleaning motivation. Something about seeing white bedding just does something to me. So relaxing❤

[@alyssajenaway3781]

Lovely video. A great way to remove lime scale from taps and shower screens is simply wiping on Water Soluable (very important- not the same as essential oils) Eucalyptus oil. It completely removes it with no scrubbing and doesn't need to be left for hours.

[@kristyu]

:o will give this a try one day!

[@celestialbeing6119]

Thank you for this video. Im living in a depression home… if you know what that means… its not my place im taking it over and built up gunk from 13 years on the walls and in the kitchen. Its clean on the surface from daily cleaning but it needs a good deep clean. This week plan will help me to be motivated and not feel alone. 💕 Thanks again!!

[@ngojems]

Thank you I’m messy as they come and your video has helped me and now my family follow this routine ❤️

[@oneheart19]

I didn't realize how simple and easy I have it when it comes to cleaning. There is no microwave, coffee machine, dishwasher or even a stove hood in my small apartment! I have very little grease because I don't eat or cook meat nor do I fry food of any kind. I only have hardwood floors, so no carpet to worry about. I share the washer/dryer with two other neighbors, but I'm happy to clean it using your method. I do wish I had a balcony though! And your precious kitty!

I once left the vinegar soaked towel too long on my kitchen faucet. It ate away at the finish and color. The faucet was black/bronze type look.

[@vusan_]

why are cleaning videos so satisfying!?such calm vibes 😌

[@lunaathena775]

i do this every week (on fridays) with my husband but i like ur cleaning tips especially for the water boiler and the microwave, i just clean my microwave with intensive cleaning wipes or hard stains spray than Dettol and some wet kitchen tissue but gonna try ur way, and indeed cleaning helps mental health and reduces depression a little bit

[@spiicyliime22]

I do a similar thing with the microwave, but squeeze some concentrated lemon juice into a bowl of water and microwave for 5 minutes. Everything wipes off like a breeze and deodorizes. Love it.

[@swagwannn]

i just can't believe i wrote it all down for future references. this really helps a lot! this way i can make my mum happy and less tired for a while! hahahaha

[@katie7748]

​@@ramonaneyrinck2292Gosh, how on earth did our grandmothers and great-grandmothers do it? And without all these modern conveniences! We are so unbelievably spoiled...

[@katherineprice9293]

First, *swept* is the past tense of sweep :). Lol second, LOVE the video. I've been reminding myself to slow things down and take them a day at a time a lot lately and seeing this cleaning was 😌😌😌 so love that for all of us. Also, love that this focused on and not decluttering. I will, however, be scouring your channel to see if there is a video about decluttering, as well as checking out kynd kare. Another thing I meant to make note of: your cat's litter! It looks like you use a rather generic brand-- no shade or anything, BUT, have you tried pretty litter? It's odor free, ships right to your door each month, and all you have to do is scoop the poop out each day and stir the litter. It was created by this person who lost their cat to a UTI so it also comes w/ a color scale that tracks the pH of your cat's urine and signifies if there are any problems you should potentially be aware of!! Isn't that literally so cool? Anyway-- just thought I would share that since it's changed life and I never have to worry about buying litter since it just ships to my door every month. :))))

[@spiicyliime22]

I love Swheatscoop kitty litter personally. It’s wheat based and flushable. So so good.
