[@liveintentionally1]

I like to clean and organize while listening/watching your videos... you're THAT inspirational!

[@sammyjgrl]

[@TheNunafeedtheducks]

Note to self, "NEED a catch all basket". Oh my I think you would have a fit if you saw my junk draw loll. I always feel inspired when watching your videos Jen, you are my saving grace when it come to organizing things around my home. Clutter around is frustrating and dose tenD to bog me down. Great video once again, until next time Thank You for sharing, take care and I hope you are having fun on your travels ....Margaret x

[@Loastes]

hi jen, can you please show us your storage room, how you store seasonal things and how you stack the plastic bins? love all your video's and tips thanks!

[@ThriftersAnonymous]

You are seriously inspiring me to get organized Jen. Seriously...thank you! I am feeling the same way! Thank you for inspiring!

[@gourmetthursday]

Hi Jen! You are such a great inspiration! You inspired me to clean my junk drawer and I found an expensive pair of earrings I thought were stolen years ago! Thank you so much for the suggestions you give and the inspiration you provide! xoxo!

[@sunnyone-z1o]

Thank u, i love all of ur videos... u are so motivating it's been almost two years since the passing of my husband and have been not so motivated, since then me amy my puppy dog have been watching ur videos and u have totally changed our lives he loves winnie :)))

[@shanlu8311]

Hi Jen, I love your organization videos! It seems almost every time I sit down to watch them I head straight out afterwards on a mission. It gets expensive but it definitely has helped streamline my life! I am also in the Chicago area (Evanston) and I am a working mom of two little boys so organization is key to staying sane. Thanks again for all the inspiration!

[@castironandcrochet]

Other people are saying that you talk too much...I totally disagree, I think that it's great that you talk as much as you do :)

[@honmin8201]

Terrific video, excellent idea to control heart of the house 'kitchen office in a bin' using just a chair which is the right level!

[@T.R.P25]

Thank you Jen. LOVE this video. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen; I live in a small apartment and I don't have a home office, so my table is always crammed with things I use on a daily basis (diary, iPad, chords, pencil case, folders, notepads...you name it). Sometimes it's hard to keep it neat but... keeping a nice catch-all lined basket it so useful. I love my nice catch-all basket, which stays snugly on my chair! xxx

[@thehumblebliss]

Your videos make me want to go organise. Love them.

[@TheMyameeGirl]

Those bins from the container store are awesome. I have that one as well as some other lidded and open ones that I use for various organization. Love them!

[@namratakamdar2012]

Hi Jen am totally hooked on your videos. Loved this one! You have such a clean organised home! We just bought a new house and everything is a holy mess. This is very inspirational!

[@WithWonder]

Sounds like a great alternative

[@NiftyNoelle]

Reading your summary under the video you repeatedly mention how unlucky you are. Take a step back...and realize you are VERY lucky. I kitchen desk is really not that important...and you always manage to figure it out...because you are really just that awesome. Thats what makes you OrganziedlikeJen :) XOXO

[@PurdyBear1]

You are a complete genius! I've been having problems where to put my stuff by my chair. It's usually magazines, knitting, and other crafts. I've already tried a dog carry bag so I could pull the wool out, but it is simply not working. The bin/box would work so well as it would give me a flat top as well. Great video full of great ideas, your amazing!

[@kk0697]

I can't wait for your utah kitchen office organizational video!! thanks!

[@azobrn45]

Love watching your videos. This was watched more than once and gets me motivated to organize!! :)

[@ShariMason-Sewn_in_Sunshine]

Great vid Jen! Gives me some inspiration to organise a small secondary bench in my kitchen that suffers from "flat surface syndrome"! I have 1 child in high school, 1 in Kindergarten, 1 in Pre-school and 1 at home, so as you can imagine there are a lot of notes, folders, homework etc that pile up. Plus my handbag, diary, phone, misc things. I think now, I have come up with a solution - so thanks sweetie!! xxoo

[@Imanthepeep]

Today I am working on my kitchen ;) and the catch all basket is an excellent idea, thanks for sharing Jen:) Iman

[@lslovesls]

Great video! Great tips for organizing! Thank you so much! 😊

[@MysticHyppie]

Oh my gosh! I love your ideas!!! I'm so going to do this. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@Cowoanclowd12]

Binoculars to look at the bunnies is the yard. You are too cute! Best thing I've heard all day :0)

[@clarec3]

Very good ideas, thanks! I grew up in upstate NY in the 70's, and it was very common for homes to have a little office nook in the kitchen. You're right - it came in very handy :)

[@bb27elfy]

i saw this video 2 days ago and yesterday i bought a plastic bin for my bathroom. I really needed something easy to store some towels and after i saw you video i got the idea. it fits so well. Why did't i think of this before?

[@mountainflower77]

Awesome video!!! I learn something new In every video!!! You're awesome! I don't know why I never thought of a catch all bin?! Brilliant!

[@GlitzyPumpkin]

I watched this video a couple of times and got totally inspired to get organized with my own mini kitchen office. I bought one of the storageboxes from Reisenthel (love their Flora print!) and put all of my daily necessities plus my laptop in. Love it! :)

[@thespongepuppy]

I don't know...I would not describe you as 'unlucky'. You live in a beautiful home and it doesn't seem necessary to have a desk in a kitchen the size of yours. You utilized the drawers very well I have to say and you make it work!

[@sumikatti]

This video was one of my favorite ones! Very good tips that are easy to implement almost in any type of home. I'm startting my own "veryday"-bin with all the stuff that I need daily and that I don't want to fetch and carry back every single day ..those things will end up in a big mess on my counter anyways - I might as well have a bin for them.

[@cindylott]

Thanks for sharing! Your video has inspired me to tackle my kitchen junk drawer....again. It seems to get messed up quickly.

[@rutap3358]

Love it!!! Great videos Jen. You are incredibly talented...

[@WithWonder]

I found it at a small gift shop in pennsylvania a few years ago

[@JillyMae89]

i notice the EXACT opposite about her. she's very aware of how lucky she is to have things she has and CONSTANTLY expresses how greatful she is to have them.

[@nicole0kalinowski]

I loved that you labeled your label maker! :)

[@MsAnna4040]

what a great idea...love it!

[@kathyjohnson5245]

Another great video, I look forward to them all. Keep them coming! :)

[@TheThrivingLady]

I agree... She has said in several other videos that she is fortunate to have such a nice home.

[@mickyunit]

hi jen! just found your videos a week or so ago and am now addicted. you have inspired me to get better organized! while i have some things super organized, we have too much 'stuff' which becomes extra counter clutter..so i went to the container store today looking for this tribeca, but my main goal was really to score some kitchen storage stuff on sale...the salesclerk told me to check out the 'clearance corner' and there was a tribeca! it had a little stain on it, but i can fix that! thx!

[@JuLa-222]

Every time I've watched one of your video's, I feel a sudden urge to clean and declutter my own house. My DH would love if I watched your vids far more often .... ;-)

[@goldenliz2191]

You make me just want to be more organized! Watching you motivates me to just get things going! :)

[@ilovewillsandkate]

My mom has her chromebook in the kitchen or dinning room(her desk doesn't get wifi). In a draw we have paper, post it's, gum, old photos, old papers, take out menus, a little cook book. Below there are phone books. On top there is always papers and books, sharpener, pen holder and tape dispenser. I do want it more organized because everything is everywhere but it is a kitchen office.

[@LibbyWithnall]

Great video. I'm lucky enough to have a kitchen office (I was a kitchen designer and designed my own kitchen), and they really are wonderful. But you have done a great job coming up with an alternative that works for you.

[@kelleysigler2551]

Love the idea of a container for all those things we need all day ! I'm always shuffling my lists and projects for the day in order to keep my counters neat. So I will begetting a basket with a lid such as yours from The Container Store. Thanks!

[@silverose1209]

I think that many of us don't live anywhere near this level of high class living. I know that mine and my DH's whole house would probably fit in her livingroom and kitchen. But I do enjoy the videos.. I might not have as large of or nice of a house.. but no matter the size of my house I can go to the thrift store and find a basket to make my home the best that it can be by organizing the "stuff" that we all have.

[@Parsley96]

I loved this vid Jen!! My kitchen table is my "office" rite now and I'll be using sum of these tips to organize my stuff better!! Your vids r the best!! Keep up the awesome job!! Kisses to Winnie too!! She's such a beautiful dog!

[@sheenbean2]

I'm quite inspired. I lost my mini kitchen office when we did some renovations. Maybe I will give a video response when done :)

[@Itsalwayssomethingaroundhere]

My kitchen junk drawer is my mini office. It looks much like yours...everything I need is handy. I can tuck my calendar and to do lists away in there when needed.

[@CyndiAKADisneyqueen]

I love your videos. Its inspired me to become more organized. I even posted my first ever video because of this! You can see my new mini office on my blog.

[@amyhomsi]

thanks. got some inspiration. love all your videos

[@Kori2706]

Thank you, Jen! Each time I watch one of your videos, it gives me new ideas to change things in my home. :-)

[@sammyjgrl]

I do have a desk in my kitchen and love love love it! I do wish I had your kitchen and the desk area:) hehehe I have a large kitchen but the setup is awful....long story, anyway our kitchen is the "HUB" of our house everyone kids, friends, family, the first thing you see when you come in our house is the kitchen, so I sooo need this video!!I am an organizing dreamer for lack of a better word I have so many ideas I can never decide what I want to do so to see it live shows me what I need to do:)

[@Herscrapcorner]

Jen, I am about to tackle organzing my kitchen. I was thinking of elimintaing my junk drawer, but now I won't. I will get some bakets though to add to storage. i dont have a desk in the ktichen, but i have room for a table so I am going to see what I can make out of that space! Thanks for the tips.

[@pinksugarglitter78]

I love your videos!! They're so helpful to me. Can you do a video on how you organize your chin, pots, pans, and spices in your kitchen?

[@carolhodson6353]

Love your kitchen firehouse.

[@cinngurley3850]

Jen, this is informative, but more applicable to people who have more than 1,300 sq ft, no kids and no home business. If anyone has a similar organizing video link to share for an actually smaller house with kids and home office, please do! In a small home, we cannot afford space for multiple bathroom items in a kitchen drawer. We cannot even shop at big box stores because the 18 rolls of paper towels would displace the bath towels.

[@TheBdavis2195]

Exactly what I thought. Nice input

[@tulip24r]

i am not "hating" her i do love her videos and how she keeps herself organized. i have noticed in most videos she does complain about little stuff.

[@EEN63]

I guess I don't see a "valid" point criticizing Jen on wanting a kitchen desk. There's nothing wrong with Jen wanting HER perfect kitchen or expressing HER desires on HER channel. She always provides so much inspiration & great tips & I appreciate all she does for us & shares with us (without pay). Jen always says she is lucky & has a very fortunate life. She's not complaining, she's just wishing & that's allowed-without 'hate' (per tulip24r). She is a sensitive lady & gift to us all... BE KIND!

[@TheKinillita]

you are such a nice lady! thanks for sharing!

[@Faithfulntru1]

I am inspired...thx for sharing:)

[@SLPtoMD]

Hey Jen, I'm just wondering, do you print your Tone It Up stuff on your own printer at home? If so, which printer is it? And also, how many ink cartridges did you go through when you printed the whole diet plan? I had mine printed in black and white, but I want to print it out in colour at some point :)

[@mountainflower77]

P.S. looking forward to your Utah kitchen office post!!!

[@angelakneller2880]

fab video I have something similar but its a lidded box under the sofa. my husband has a small lidded box under his chair for bits he accumalates it makes it so much easier 4 cleaning. I just put stuff he leaves out back in the box and he knows where to find his stuff. my mum also has a small lidded basket full of toys for when children come round it keeps them contained when there r no children x

[@beatific2c]

Great video Jen! Uefeul tips. Now I need to rush out and buy some storage/catch all bins! :) x

[@missmadlea]

i love this jen

[@WithWonder]

It's coming soon!

[@Martylugo]

Jen, can you share what you have behind you're stove to hold you're potholders. I'm looking to do something like that. Thanks! You are so inspiring!!!

[@Stef6788]

I'd love to see an update of your filofax organization. For example I saw those little drop-like sticky notes on the bottom... When I saw that drawer I immediately thought: "Wow, that is so neat and organized for a junk drawer" and then you were like: "I know it doesn't look too neat!" ....

[@T.R.P25]

PS love the butterfly on your Mac!

[@anya4983]

hi..i love your videos. could you pls tell me which lipstick you are wearing in this video? . the shade is gorgeous.take care

[@sharirohde]

Thanks Jen! Your videos are very inspiring. I have implemented both this concept in our condo and your Filofax and it has been so helpful. Can you please post an updated Filofax video for those of us incorporating your system into our own? I see you have added stickers post it notes and tabs to your pages. Thanks again for all u do!

[@tammimarie]

Thanks for the video. I actually never do work in my kitchen (I'm a teacher). I mostly do things in my office or sometimes living room but then I put the things back. I also don't have a junk drawer, that would drive me insane! Lol. Please do a cleaning / routine video.

[@CASue1]

I love the idea of that brown box to hold stuff ! I'm going to look into doing something like that. Great video ! You always inspire me Jenn - love the attention to detail you bring to these videos. :-) SueT.

[@TheMyameeGirl]

Hey Jen, This has nothing to do with the organizational info in your video, but I was wondering if you could tell me where you got the inserts for your FiloFax that you show at 6:04? All I can ever find are the plain looking planner inserts and those look like a lot of fun! Thanks!

[@veromiami]

Hi Jen! Can you make a video explaining how you sort your mail and bills payment system? Thank you!, I really enjoy all this organizational videos..... Xoxo

[@shanlu8311]

P.S. It's awesome that you labeled your labeler :-)

[@ScrappingLatina]

Very helpful... Thanks.

[@desiree8179]

Hi Jen!! Great video. I think some kind of cleaning video would be so great coming from you, maybe a favorite cleaning products, or cleaning routines, or a speed clean like you have done for organization in the past. I sent you a Christmas card and letter, but never got anything back, I wonder if it got lost in the mail? Have a great day! Love your videos Jen!!!

[@4lynnab]

I love your videos!! I'm new to your channel. You may have mentioned it before,but I would like to know what kind of camera or camcorder you film with.

[@irenavanillia]

hey jen i couldnt help but notice that you have a different layout in your planner am i right ??? or ar those just stickers?? i am currently trying to make my planner more functional and pretty so i would like to know if you are doing something different since i am following your journal layout from your earlier videos

[@elisam34]

Because you lived in a condo before moving into this house, do you have any tips for organizing in a smaller space? We are living in a tiny house while our house is being renovated and I am going CRAZY!!!!

[@tulip24r]

how do you maintain your backyard? i would love to see your backyard and what are your tricks to maintain grass and flowers etc....please do a video on that

[@TheGLOSSette]

can you do a video on just tips on things a person should considering doing or getting when they first have their own place not like furniture and stuff but organizational things like when I think of kitchen I would want a rack full of different spices... that would really help Jen. Thanks :)

[@Teachingonsunshine]

Thanks for sharing! Where did you get the skin for your macbook? I love butterflies

[@Brittany_Thurman]

You have the perfect kitchen i live in an apartment and i can not fit a table in my kitchen. Ugh my kitchen is a nightmare

[@brendaloza]

what is the square footage of your home ... I love all the storage and closets it just seems like to get that i would have to have a huge home..... :)

[@ABeautyAddict]

Love your videos :)

[@alexiaptineo]

Great question JademareeRG! My bills organization is a big mess and I would love to see Jen come up with an awesome solution for me like she tends to do.

[@joseluis7473]

Jen, I love your junk drawer. It inspired me to make one in my kitchen, since it's the busiest place in my house as well. Where did you get that wooden storage divider that holds your gum, mints, and cough drops?

[@HelmutzGirl]

I love videos like this, thank you for making it :-)

[@InTheCusacksShoes]

Love this video. My catch all box only seems to get emptied when it's spilling over with junk!!!

[@4Jirasoles]

Omg!! I love all your videos!! can you come help me organize my house!!! Desperately need it!!! My challenge is organizing my daughters toys... I've used the ikea expedite along with bins.. And it just invites my girls to dump them all out.. Lol.. Thanks for sharing!!

[@debscute]

If you could film it, I'd love to see how you sort through your catchall basket when it gets too full.

[@TheAllyLeigh]

Could you do a video explaining your running journal? Thank you! I love your videos

[@missbreeza]

great great great video!! my thoughts put into a video

[@CUBANARAMA]

Hi Jen! I was wondering if you would ever consider doing a video showing us how to organize photos. And where to start when I have years worth of photos of my daughter who is 12 years old now.

[@yasjencon]

Loved it
