Thank you for always being real. It’s hard to find that. I’ve been watching you for years. Congratulations on everything you have accomplished and happy holidays, merry Christmas.

[@freshstartgreencleaning]

Great way to start a new year!

[@mikebarbieri3345]

Great video! Your house looks beautiful as always. It was fun to see an updated tour. However, I'm curious... I don't understand why YTubers start courses/classes/FB groups that charge for information that are already in their YT videos.You have made huge accomplishments. I've watched you since you were Malitose79 and I've read both books that you published. How much more info can be in a paid course when there are years of YT videos to refer to? MM and her sister started a FB group that you have to pay to join. Wouldn't you make more money over the long run by just putting out more videos that will collect more and more views over years VS paid courses? I'm just curious because I'm noticing other long time YTubers making changes to their content and video output recently.

[@lizmartinez7086]

It sounds great and like so much fun. I will not participate because Dawn puts out videos where she says she and her husband don’t like people & they have no friends...but claim they are Christians. Even if I weren’t a Christian I would never think that was ok. That’s just how I feel and it’s my own opinion. Perhaps you will delete my comment. It’s ok with me it’s your channel. I will continue to listen to Dana’s podcast and watch your videos...to the end!!!

I am a real estate appraiser and have entered thousands of homes in Southern California. 97% of people had clutter in their homes. The other 3% were vacant homes in escrow 🤣 Many of the clean homes were clean and tidy because a housekeeper just left before I got there. Luckily, this experience left me with a lot less anxiety about the condition of my home. I still want a neat and tidy home, but, I refuse to hate myself when it isn’t.

[@Darnabymom]

Thank you for sharing your experience. I've come to be at peace where my home is now, but still continue to declutter and organize as I can. I've come a long way in a couple of years. I'm starting to notice that I actually have made progress. My mom had a housekeeper and her expectations of what the home would be like is higher than I can achieve. She lives with us, which is more of a blessing than it sounds. Our home is mostly messy in cluttered hot spot areas. We have TOO much stuff and too big of a house. Working on having copious amounts of less stuff GONE when my husband and I downsize. Essential stuff is the goal. I'm a bee and I think my husband is too.That can make it harder, but not impossible.

[@Alice_SB]

Pues tu casa, según dices, pertenece a ese 97%. ¿No te da vergüenza? 😂🤣😂😂🤣😂 Te sugiero que te des una vueltita por las viviendas españolas, ¡¡¡Es al revés!!! El 97% las tienen super limpias. Las casas de las españolas siempre están limpias y ordenadas. Puedes caerles en cualquier momento que nunca tienen ni desorden ni trastos ni ropa por lavar o planchar. Y para tu información todas trabajan fuera, cocinan el almuerzo y la cena, cosa que las gringas no hacen, atienden a sus hijos y maridos y un 90% no tienen servicio doméstico ni ayuda de ningún tipo. Y encima, ¡encima! Tienen tiempo para salir a divertirse. Cómo lo hacen, no lo sé, pero es así. O sea, en conclusión, si se puede trabajar fuera, atender la familia y tener una casa de revista. Si ellas pueden, que son unas simples mortales cualquiera puede.

Mine is the office/den. In March, my husband took it over as his work space. He works 7 days a week and more than 8 hours most days. They want his group to take vacation days, but the work they do won"t get done and it is crucial (corporate accounting for a utility supply company) So I've been working on other area of our home.

[@SarahAnew]

& also her outfit is color coordinated w/ the room 😂

[@sweetstufff]

I love how you organized a non-minimalist home. I almost always see only minimalist organization and for non minimalists, it feels discouraging. You give us hope to get a tidy home without having to get rid of our loved belongings and non-minimalist lifestyle. Thanks! The only challenge is fitting my items into a very small spaced tiny home.

[@susancoelho658]

Yes, I had to leave my condo after 7 years with a lot of things, (after my divorce). My son , 28 yrs old (disabled) , and I moved in at my sisters house ( after my Ma passed) . Right away, one full garage was taken up with my stuff! Her house 🏡 was less sq.ft than my condo , with now, 3 people! I now (after 4 yrs here) have 2 full rooms to myself and some area in the basement. I figured I must organize higher , and higher in my crest to conquer some real nice looking organization !! Still at it. Not nailing in walls , n wish I could build items , like taller shelvings. Thank you for all You do and what I am learning from that !!

[@lanajantz2240]

Same for me !

[@karenswanson3786]

And this is why you are my favorite KZbinr. Your honesty about your home far out weighs a million Pinterest posts. Your home is beautiful. I think we all need a “junk space” as well as a “junk drawer”. So embrace your Harry Potter closet mess with pride. After all how often is that space used compared to the rest of your organized and well functioning home. Keep teaching, guiding and inspiring us with your honesty and wonderful sense of humor. My home and I thank you.

[@JamesWard-bn5nt]

Ya will really do need a junk space!

[@alexandria8116]

I love seeing some of the same pieces of furniture that you've had for like ten years still being used because it shows that your systems are actually working for you and also that you get a lot of use out of your things. Also very cool to see the things that have changed like the girls' rooms and the evolution of the downstairs livingroom and craft room/office.

[@Clutterbug]

We built a wall! lol. I miss the big playroom, but separating it into two rooms made our house more functional for sure

[@cdd824]

Thank you for showing your beautiful, realistic home. I love that it’s not minimalist, because frankly, most people with kids aren’t minimalists. People shop at warehouse clubs, they have family members that hoard, and sometimes inherit possessions from departed loved ones. Because of that, they don’t always want to pare down to only necessities. Do I have Christmas dishes for 12? Yes I do. I use them once a year and I’m absolutely not parting with them. But to see how organized and calm your home is... that’s beautiful! Thank you

[@janedelaney4327]

I’d LOVE to know how to deal with the hoarder I live with. It’s exhausting and depressing. I can organize and declutter but what to do about the three+ rooms this other person just hoards and hoards in?

[@shegoeslightly]

I'm a minimalist with a 2yo, studied minimalism for 11 years. 12 plates doesn't create clutter, 7 types of toothpaste, 5 jars of shampoo, 15 types of cleaner - that's what makes life messy and chaotic. A million choices like these make life harder for some people, extra work, but I choose not to have that extra work.

[@mammacass5311]

@@janedelaney4327 if you haven’t already it might be helpful to look into hoarding disorder. Maybe you can get your loved one the help they desperately need. There are videos by recovering hoarders I found very informative. Hope you are successful ❤️

[@conniepalmer2956]

You have helped me take back my home. The one thing that was holding me back was holding on to clutter. This year I rented a dumpster. It was only for a week. I threw lots of stuff away, recycled papers, donated to thrift stores, and happened upon two shredding events SCORE!!!!!!! Once all of the JUNK was gone I could finally organize in my true ladybug fashion. I’m able to decorate and have created home goals that makes my house a home. Thank you so much. My unused and unwanted clutter was in my way. It is so much easier to clean, organize, and decorate when you let go of unwanted stuff.

[@cynthiafisher9907]

This is the first video of yours I have watched, I found you through Dawn at The Minimal Mom. I think she’s really cute and inspiring, but her house is so spare and sterile it makes me anxious. Your house looks lived in, even though it’s tidy. Right now, my house just looks lived in. I’m slowly working my way toward a more sane existence. I love what Dawn says about managing inventory and having less stuff to manage so you have more time for the things that matter more to you. I don’t have kids at home anymore so I can afford to get rid of more. Thank you for giving me permission not to get rid of everything!

[@Clutterbug]

Dawn inspires me to let go of even more, but you don't have to get rid of the things that bring you joy and that you use often!

[@susanelizabeth1319]

I have struggled with organization. (Originally due to lack of motivation.) It lands on my goal list every year. Then almost a year ago, shortly after we moved, my fiance died. He was a really neat person, always picking up. He loved to clean. Me? Not so much. Well, not at all. I am living in his house and I have struggled with feeling bad about how messy it is. Your video has been really helpful. I am a stuff person. I have struggled with getting rid of stuff. I think, "But I might need that" or "But that was my grandmother's" But, I have recognized that I have to get rid of stuff. I have taken a huge amount of stuff to the Goodwill. Your home was so inspiring. I learned that I need to make better use of my furniture, closets, and bins. Thank you so much!

[@peggyk.738]

Out of all your videos, and I’ve watched 99% of them, I think this is my favorite! ❤️❤️❤️

AAA+ for great ideas instead of blaring music! For that reason, your channel is one of my most favorite one!

[@henriettelinkshanderin1449]

When we lived in a really small flat we only had one really small bathroom. It was hard, especially in the mornings when my husband wanted to shower and shave but I had to do my hair and make up. Our solution was that we moved everything that did not need water out of the bathroom: hairbrush, hairdryer, make up, deodorant etc. We put these things in a dresser in the hall and used them there. There was a big mirror above the dresser so it was like a vanity. And it worked! Maybe you could find a similar solution?

I love the colors you use in your home and how you use them, its still very colorful with the pops of bright colors but it feels so luxurious bc they coordinate so well together. Feels like a fancy spa or hotel. Such a beautiful home and honestly so refreshing to finally see a different style of decor other than the all white, natural wood, burlap & shiplap farmhouse.

[@sherryharding5792]

Thanks for sharing your tidy house Cas! And also,your honesty.

[@livinglargeonasmallbudget1027]

Thank you so much for always being you. I think it is funny that I have been with you since the Malitose79 days and I never get tired of watching you. 2 things you taught me that have really changed my life and that have helped me keep my home tidy; are to store things where you use them which also makes it extremely easy to put things away. The second thing that really helps me is to put things away where I would look for the item first if the item were lost. Before you helped me realize I was a ladybug, I thought I was a hot mess but what you taught me was that if I am constantly losing things (which I was) because of homeless clutter, move it to where you would have looked for it. If something needs to be relocated to make room for something else, just do it as long as it is near where you use the item most often. I never lose anything now because everything has a designated place. FYI, (for me at least) I have discovered that if I take the time to make a label for the item, I am much more likely to remember where it is located.

[@MrsMags91]

This is a great example of having a home that has enough space for your stuff. I wish I could afford a home of that size then I probably could be more organized. Thank you for sharing your realistic home to give inspiration to us all.

[@Angora573]

I kind of disagree as we just buy more stuff to fill up the extra space when we move to a bigger home if we aren't strict with ourselves and only buy what we need and not everything we want.. I had to learn to organise the space I had rather than the one I used to have. From 2200 sq ft to a small apartment! IMO Clutterbug's house is huge but I bet she could get rid of tons of stuff if she had to downsize. You can't have stuff that would fill a larger space when you live in a small space you just have to get rid of stuff, oh and not hire a storage space lol

[@commenter5901]

@@Angora573 I understand that, if you have a lot of extra space, it can easily get filled up, but when your house doesn't have a mud room, a pantry, a linen closet, an office, a storage area, only has one tiny closet in each bedroom, no room for a dressers... the only thing you can do is stack your stuff in totes wherever you can find room. With only 2 cupboards in the entire kitchen, there's only enough room for dishes and I bake and cook everything from scratch (food allergies, so I have no choice) so pots and pans get stored in the oven. And working from home when the small living room is the office and the playroom... literally everything can be cleaned up and in totes, but it still looks cluttered because I'm an artist and my hubby also works from home. Canvases just can't be put away because there is no where big enough to store them. Under the bed would be the only place, but that's where winter coats go. We have minimized to the point where it is so inconvenient because we constantly have to borrow things from my mom that we got rid of because of lack of space. I can't get myself to get rid of the kids toys either while they are still being played with daily. I know some people just don't have toys and take their kids to the park instead, but I have severe allergies and can't leave the house for more than a few minutes so I'm in here almost 24/7... I really think a bigger house would make a big difference, even if just so I could have closets or room for dressers or a pantry so I don't have to keep food in boxes in the hall... We could probably put a shelf in the hall, but I don't think that that's safe (narrow hall) and, right now, when company comes over, all our totes, boxes, and bins around the house can just get put on our beds so the living area is tidy looking. A bigger house would make a huge difference because there's only so much that you can realistically get rid of and still have a life.

[@JoMU0511]

I am an artist too, and I bought an antique children’s wardrobe for my canvases. It took me ages to find the right solution, but this one is totally open inside so it works. By the way, I have to say I agree with you. My house isn’t small by Australian standards but we don’t have a lot of the things you mention either. Love Cass’s home!

[@kimberlynewsom9876]

I didn't think I'd get any new organizing ideas from this video since you've shared so much already over the years... but holy crap was I wrong. 1. cubby systems for clothes. 2. MULTIPLE command centers (mind blown on that one) and 3. Large bins/baskets on top of fridge for oversized chip bags!!!! Thank you so much - your home is lovely and so organized.

[@patkern185]

Thank you for the tour of your beautiful and organized home. Because you've used cube shelving so well I'm surprised you haven't employed the same solution for your Harry Potter closet. I just rewatched your old video where you did such a great job of getting everything in labeled bins but instead of just stacking them on each other maybe Joe could make you an oversized shelving system where you can grab any bin without disturbing the others. Not only would it make getting things out easier but it would create incentive and make it easier to put things away by just opening the proper bin. I'll bet you could make a deal with Joe...you swear you'll keep the master bathroom clean and he'll make your storage shelves. 😄 Whatya think? XXOO❤

My husband is super tidy and organized but loves to keep his stuff around where he can see it, while I get overwhelmed by too much stuff... we are moving in a couple of weeks and one of my priorities is setting up systems that work for both.

The drawers are all categorized by product and it just makes me happy! Cass, you deserve to have your own vanity table and Joe won't complain about the bathroom anymore!!! WIN-WIN!

That shoe organizer is goals - I still have plastic dressers in my closets because I'm poor and don't have anyone to help me lift anything big! (single mom). I made the children a cube organizer one year and within a few months they'd stood on it to reach things behind it (why? No idea) and broken the little shelves. So cube organizers are great if you don't have preteens who see them as a ladder! This is why we don't have nice things

We still have things we enjoy in a small space. I love figuring out how to organize it all. Love the kitchen area for the kids! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@michelleb6395]

Hi, Cas, if you need help decluttering, just move your house to the southern U.S. About twice a year, a tornado will come through and Declutter your stuff for you. And anything left will be taken care of by the hurricane around the corner. 😬

[@kammym4166]

Ahhhh this comment got me. I’m currently freaking out because husband’s work might be taking us out of California and into Louisiana, Alabama or Mississippi. And I have no clue what to expect but have been telling him about hurricanes and tornadoes and basements and ahhhh omg excuse me while I go freak out so more🥴

[@SimplyBeautiful516]

I think it’s the training, not necessarily the storage units are what REALLY keeps your home tidy. I had very similar beautiful , functional storage for my children, but their rooms were disastrous. You and your family have learned to be tidy, so the systems actually work! Excellent job!!

[@mariaesther8540]

You def inspired me to organize today. Family of five is overwhelming sometimes. Love your videos.

[@cherylkalsch5107]

You have a lovely home. Thanks for sharing it with us. After reading so many comments on different KZbin videos I have to compliment my mama for not tolerating clothes or towels on the floor when I was growing up. It was never done in our home and I hear about it so much these days. You have a great family and home. I really enjoy your videos and you!

[@bessiebigsis782]

I love how organized your house is! And cute decor!

[@beverlyrembold8516]

I’m a 42yo mom of an amazing 10yo little boy and he’s my entire world 💙❤️💙 this past September 26 I had a hemorrhagic stroke and it effected my left arm hand foot and leg. I’m walking again praise the good sweet Lord and I’m still trying to get my left arm and hand back 🙏🏼🙏🏼 but regardless I have to pull up the old carpet in my home and get some painting done yay yay it’s going to turn out so nice and I’m hoping to be able to do the stick on backsplash in my kitchen bathroom and laundry room. I plan on being here a really good while so I want to get it nice for my boy. He is why I am still here no doubt about it ❤️🙏🏼

[@ktortora611]

I absolutely LOVE closed storage and organization Systems that support “A place for everything, and everything in its right place.” I’m a big believer in LABELS. My motto: Don’t put it down, put it away.”

[@nancynurse4552]

Cass, I very much enjoyed seeing this home tour. I do have to admit I was also having flashbacks to one of your first ever home tours years ago on your original channel, Malitose79. You were open and honest about the messes back then which is one of many reasons I have been a subscriber for all these years.

[@renedaley4866]

I love how real you keep it.

[@godchild55]

You know what Cas, affirmation is the best thing to provide encouragement, and make somebody feel good about what they’re doing. To be honest, the more the organizing systems around my house look like yours (so to speak) the better I feel about how much time it’s taken to get to this point. I too, have a home for everything in my home and systems to keep things organized. As a result, when our little one came along, it was easy to incorporate all of his stuff, personal effects, belongings, toys, etc. in with our living space without having toys and stuff all over the place (that rhymes). Girl, Never feel bad for doing what encourages others to do better!!🇨🇦

[@jodythomas1159]

THANK YOU!!!!!!! Your home feels warm and inviting. That’s my heart. I do not want to declutter or minimize to the point my home appears cold. I love your game cabinet because we too are “game nerds”. QUESTION: Does your table stay “set” all day everyday?

[@lsansing1783]

Yes!!!! You can have a lot of a thing, if you have space to store it. Yes!!!!! We have lots of games also.

[@LifeDIYJosie]

Thanks for the inspiration and tips, Cas. I agree we all have a room that's a mess. For me, it's my craft room. It's a jungle in there lol 😂 I always enjoy watching you. Hugs-josie 😊 💟 💜 💕

[@shanedavidson2018]

Lol, I can totally relate. For me it’s my dogs. Sometimes I feel like they own me and where I live in lol. They always get the best of me!!

[@KieuNguyen95870]

I enjoy this house tour, it isn’t liked the other « minimalist » house, the house organization is true and real for a family.

[@yohairarivas4988]

Can’t wait to see a master bath organized makeover!

[@jonathanowen9917]

Inspirational! I’m glad that you have found systems that work for you. I like the cube storage in place of a dresser. My wife (ladybug) and I (cricket) are just beginning our journey towards organization.

[@autumnfuentes2418]

I love that you kept saying that we don’t have to get rid of all of our stuff! That is a common theme amongst organizers and sometimes we get tired of hearing it! And I’m glad you have a Harry Potter closet! 😉 your house looks amazing!

[@calico27]

I came here from the Minimal Mom.. and honestly, have been binging your videos for the last 24+ hours. It usually takes me a while to get used to and like new KZbinrs, but you are so instantly likeable!! I LOVE your content, your presentation style.. and your honesty! I have cherry picked videos from 1+ year ago, couple of months ago etc.. Now, I am a subscriber and I will start watching all your videos religiously. Thank you for doing this.. and being you. I am happy I added you to my 'circle of people' 💕

[@Clutterbug]

Thank you! I am honoured to be in your "circle".

[@Studio344]

Cas, your home looks beautiful. I am completely inspired! My home is also perpetually clean thanks to your system. Thank you so much! Merry Christmas!

[@BDidion123]

Rolled bath towels and labeled containers I do that so much. 💕💕💕

[@budoneof15]

Your home is beautiful. The colors in your spaces are such a great in between color. I struggle with everyone wanting to do just grays and whites. My house is very dark and warm. But your is a perfect amount of color. I would love the the colors in your bedroom. Thanks for the tour.,

[@b.g.8365]

I love the family picture at the beginning. So beautiful and joyful!

[@shelbylynnwilliams8520]

Love an organized home! You’re awesome! I guess I have to give credit also to your family for their cooperation in putting things right back in the proper place.

[@livinglargeonasmallbudget1027]

One thing that has helped me save space for decor is to use pillow covers. I put the pillow covers on in the opposite order of how I will use them. For example my Christmas covers just came off but underneath is my normal winter pillow cover, underneath that one is spring, then summer, then fall. When Christmas comes around again I start the process over and put the Fall cover, then summer, then spring, winter and finish with Christmas cover. As you remove them it goes from season to season with minimal effort. I even store the used covers folded and place on the inside back of the zippered pillow covers. Hope that makes sense because now it is so easy to keep my pillows and not have to take up a bunch of space to store them.

[@creativebubble3845]

You are such an inspiration, been decluttering and organizing my home ever since I discovered your channel. It's damn hard work and still so much to do, watching your videos really keeps me on track. Haven't heard any updates from you regarding your health in a while. How do you feel? What has your food regimen been like since losing weight? Would love to hear it if you wanna share. P.S. Those jeans fit you so well, you're looking great!

[@katsspace4688]

So true, we have a lot of stuff but it’s organized and tidy. Mind you, I did a huge declutter in 2020, which has made a big difference in maintaining a tidy house. Great ideas too xx

[@melissaamericanmade9831]

Your husband is an extremely blessed man. The end. Edited spelling.

[@CSSP10]

I thoroughly enjoyed your beautiful home tour and your transparency at the end about your master bath and Harry Potter closet made me chuckle! (YAY, she’s not perfect!! ☺️) I very much appreciate that you show that being a minimalist is not necessary for a lot of us...(a kitchen with no decor or anything on the counter seems cold and boring to me, but it’s a “to each his own” thing and the important thing is what makes those living there happy) Your home is beautiful! Thanks for your encouragement and fun delivery! God’s blessings to you and your fam!

[@melissaamericanmade9831]

You must have a cooperative family.

[@ssteph7777]

Melissa, I was thinking the same thing! All my stubborn, messy boys (which includes my husband) would laugh at me if I asked them to even put their coat or keys in the same spot each day. I won't give up though, I will keep trying to make progress! #homegoals

[@ah5721]

@@ssteph7777 if my family doesn't clean I threaten to get rid of it. My husband knows. I donated a jacket and he was ticked, but now he knows I make good on my promises.

[@stefaniestaniak4329]

Your home is beautiful. What is amazing is that you have taught your children the benefit of staying organized. What a great lesson to teach them. You are one amazing lady. I can’t even begin to tell you how happy I am to have found you. You always inspire me and everyday I try to find one small area that could use a purge and reorganizing. It has been a slow process but it is so worth it. Thank you.

[@therealmcneills]

Thanks for always keeping it real! You inspire me to constantly edit my house to function better. Dawn was saying the other day you had instilled a great idea in her about making it just as easy to put something up as it is to leave it out. I have been trying to apply that so much to my life! I do have a suggestion for your Harry Potter closet though... If I remember correctly, with hot mess house, didn't you help a family that had like the tiniest closet be able to have some roll out shelving? I'm just wondering if you were able to get one of those Sullivan metal shelving units on casters that could fit in the doorway of that closet. You could stack all your stuff onto it and simply wheel it out all in one fell swoop in order to access what's in the back. Hope that helps. :-) Keep up the awesome lady!

[@nicolestewart]

The ikea kalax shelves are the key to organisation. The day I moved to a new apartment, was the day I bought the kalax shelving for the lounge, dining and my sons room and it made every room functional, minimal pretty and perfect. 💓

[@aimeechas]

OMG - I'm SO doing the pegboard idea for my laundry room!

[@bootdiva1742]

Today is the first time I've watched your channel. I've binged 5 so far.

[@carolynspotts4972]

Just a thought, do you use the chair in the bedroom? If not you could put your skills to use to find a piece to organize the bathroom stuff. Only a suggestion, I love your channel and you look amazing.

[@meadowlane637]

I am binge-watching your videos. It's scary how much we are alike in how we were in our apartments. Everyone knew not to open my closets or my bedroom door 😳 I have stopped doing that but still have dirty dishes and stuff everywhere. Your suggestions and methods make sense to me. Thank you!

[@theresatrudelle3972]

Every organized home has the "Monica Closet". The one place, just like Monica on Friends , where we hide our stuff. Rest of the house is perfect-ish but that one secret spot-o-shame!

[@YourBadasseryCoach]

Haha...I have that closet too...it gives me major anxiety every time I even think of decluttering it.😔

[@lw6502]

Very honest, transparent , and informative. I consider myself a very organized person but learned even more from your video. The key message was “it’s just as easy to put things back as it is to keep it out” . That’s my new mantra . Thank you

[@jeanne_guitton]

Your kids are amazing. My stepsons have the Kallax cube shelving as well and their room still looks like Mick Jagger just left 😂 😂 😂. Love the video!

[@thegirlatthefrontdesk3519]

I love you Cas! I have been watching you for six years. Through you I have found the Minimalist Mom and now a Sob Comes clean. I swear the three of you have been an answer to prayers. This week I am finally doing a hard-core purge of my house and I finally feel like I am succeeding. I regret not taking photos of the before. You taught me that it doesn't cost a lot of money to organize and how to improvise. The Minimalist Mom taught me to let go and A slob comes clean just wrapped it all up for me. Her book is so relatable and encouraging. Thanks so much for all of your content and congratulations on your success. ♡♡♡♡

[@eijasalonen6643]

Your home is so beautiful! You taught me to use baskets to store things, thanks for that ❤. My cabinets are so clean now. And merry Christmas beforehand 🎄❤
