What's your weekly reset routine? Let me know! For those wondering, Jeff and I split the cleaning - we are a team 🧼 😊

[@malgorzataw9536]

For mirrors damp, clean microfiber cloth (preferably the one for glass) is best. Try it out😀If it is difficult to get is stipesfree just wash the mirros using microfiber and water with just a littlebit of dishwasher liquid. It should wash off residues of spray, or whatever you have used on it before. In the bathroom spray is good, just spray from bottom to top, and than wash from top to bottom😀

[@TheCarlaProject]

christina i have a duvet hack!! you hold your duvet cover at each corner INSIDE OUT!! then grab the corners of your comforter and just flip duvet cover over the comforter while standing up. takes 5 seconds and my life is forever changed 😂

[@Christinamychas]

Lol legit I have crawled inside the duvet cover and stuffed duvet in there so this is much appreciated 😂

[@disappearingink1354]

I do that with pillowcases but never thought to try it with the duvet! Usually resort to the crawling-inside method too 😂

[@Mmmmartie]

This is what I do as well, and it's super fast. 😊

[@stefdeprekel5472]

Thanks 👍

[@ndsolimini]

There’s also a duvet cover trick/hack where you roll them together and then when it unrolls, it’s inside the cover. There’s a trick to it, but I tested it - it DOES work.

[@kathrynp7595]

I love watching cleaning videos too, better than cleaning my own house 😂

[@Christinamychas]

Right?! Haha

[@erinjoshi2590]

Ever since I first watched you on a TFD episode talking about how you overcame being a shopaholic, I've kept coming back to your page for your content. You have such a great attitude and a very soothing voice to listen to. But mostly, I love the approach you have on all of the things. Definitely feel excited to implement some sort of reset routine with my partner.

[@sarahroseinteriorsco]

Nice job. I'm actually embracing a new cleaning routine that avoids any housework on the weekends - the total opposite :) As a mom of 2 littles, I'm trying to get it done while they're at school, so weekends are just to enjoy. Different season of life. Best~

[@natasyafputri]

I agree, I don’t have kids yet, but for me weekends are for going out and museum date with my husband. So we need to get all the housework done before weekends so we can enjoy our date!

[@thekosylife]

I'm so impressed that you clean the floor trim every week, I cannot be bothered to do that more than once a month haha. Great video and great motivation, I also agree that these tasks could easily be split over a couple of days. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@Christinamychas]

Our new place gets soooo dusty! 😭

[@EloF31]

Use a squeegee for the mirrors! I also tried the newspaper hack but as you said, not that easy to find on a regular basis. I make sure there's enough water on the mirror before using the squeegee and it always gives me perfect results.

[@dariagrekul5957]

Even more than watching cleaning videos I like when someone else does the cleaning of my home for me😁

[@debrawalker7452]

That momentary rage quit is so relatable!! 😂

[@lizasoliman723]

when i had my studio i would do a couple things on my work days like laundry or kitchen crannies, that way my weekend power-clean was only the bathroom & floors ;)

[@Busy_Spider]

🧼🧼🧼 Feeling motivated to give our apartment a good clean tomorrow after my morning run! Thanks for sharing your process! 💪

[@mansoor3159]

Christina your cleaning videos are too too too motivating for me and I truly truly enjoyed watching today's video so so much you are my inspiration and I wish you have a wonderful day 😁💫💖

[@CitrusAndCinnamon]

Yes! I love this, and it's inspiring me to do this to my place soon, as that's fallen by the wayside recently with general life busy-ness! 🧼

[@yuwenywh]

🧼 im planning to do the cleaning over the coming long weekend. thanks for the motivation 🥰

[@juliaakselsen9253]

Loved the video! The relaxing tone…how you kept it so real and relatable ❤

[@jeanninelaila4228]

thanks for helping me be motivated for my own sunday reset, needed it 🧼 !

[@Midnighteyess]

Perfect vid to wake up to on a Sunday! Thanks for sharing your routine 🧼🫧

[@lizzabbott]

Excellent ! Great job, Christina ! Your new place is lookin good ! Loving all that natural light. Welcome Home !

[@rachelberry209]

I’m dreaming of the day when videos like this include the list of cleaning your partner is doing 🫣😘 especially while we discuss getting paid for your work in latest podcast. ( loving your podcast btw ) I remember when I didn’t mind the extras like this but as you go down the path of life and add in kids, life stress, bigger houses, and other obligations. ( aging parents etc) I realise it should have been divided it up better from the start. That’s what I’d tell my younger self. I do have a hubby who helps clean, ( when I ask) I can’t imagine how much work it would be if he didn’t.

[@Christinamychas]

He does them too ❤️❤️

[@meganhibbs]

Loving the new podcast btw - your content is top tier!

[@amyhoover9]

It's been at least a couple of weeks since I last cleaned my space... I'm definitely feeling inspired to clean and dust it soon because of this video!.😊

[@maria-alphonsinemamboma1323]

Hii, you can also get the same yellow towel in blue, they are thinner, you clean with the blue one then you wipe dry with the yellow one ( I'm a car detailer, I do that to glass and mirrors )

[@Christinamychas]

Amazing! Thank you!

[@muuhwi]

Yes, felt really motivated to clean🧼 Longer version would be great, too ❤

[@Heather.C.ButterflySage]

🧼🫧 Love a good clean with me body doubling. Same for decluttering. I need to tackle some deep cleans before winter sets in - fans, oven, windows, oh my! 🪭🪟❄

[@mallorygraf8574]

I do my cleaning on schedules...like Mondays, Wed and Sat I clean bathroom sink and toilet, Thurs and Friday wash days, kitchen has to be done everyday( sigh)...I have dogs so I try to do a quick vacumn every other day and of course, I could not live w/o my dishwasher! If it was a choice between the internet and dishwasher, it would totally be my dishwasher!❤❤

[@livwithme_]

Really cool duvet hack! Love a weekly reset 😊

[@jessieshelton6993]

An ex of mine had a trick for a faster way of putting pillow cases on pillows that he got from his grandmother. Turn the pillow case inside out, stick your arms in and then grab the two corners of the pillow. From there, turn the pillow case right side out over the pillow (does that make sense?)--it has greatly sped up my process haha and I share it because after a lot of similar "rage quits" I started using the same technique for putting on my duvet cover. It's hard to explain in words alone, but I hope it helps! Maybe I'll make a demo one of these days. Thanks for your video! I'm excited to clean my house now :)

[@wierawrites]

🧼🧼🧼 I usually clean on Saturdays so I will be watching this again to get myself in the cleaning mood 😂

[@karinefrommontreal]

Ohhhh I love this! What a great video thank you! Definitely for me too, a reset comes also with clean sheets, but deep clean face and clean hair too. I shave and do my nails also on the Sunday to be cute all week. I hate when my home and/or myself is messy😝

[@StephanieGrealis]

Yay midweek surprise video!! I love watching cleaning videos too! It’s so inspiring that you do all of that every weekend as a routine! I’m currently a “hey, I feel like cleaning the toilet today” kind of gal, and whether that means I clean it three times in a week, or once in three weeks, I never know 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 I really need to get into a set routine just as soon as I heal up from leg surgery. Need to get back to the gym as well so I can fit in my non stretchy pants again 😬 Have a good rest of your week!

[@MsAngieNightmare]

🧼 gonna re watch while doing my reset tomorrow.

[@EdaAlanbay]

Loved this kind of video 😍😍 pls do more 😊👍

[@amyh8144]

🧼 Just did a pretty good clean of the living room, kitchen, and bathroom today. Even caulked the seam between the backsplash and the counter. 🎉

[@szfrj]

❤ I find slightly rougher texture paper roll works as well

[@Reiko29DBS]

Listening to your podcast while cleaning yesterday 😂

[@veekadlec]

I stranglely love watching cleaning videos but not so much doing the actual cleaning myself lol. 😂 I am making a note to hoover my duvet though as that is something that never occurred to me to do. Thank you! 🙏

[@tabithaenriquez1330]

Coffee filters work great too if you don't have old newspapers lying around!

[@Amy-601]

Soap 🧼! Omg 😳. That’s the term my mom 👩🏻 and grandma 👵 use “ dust collectors”. They won’t get wall hangings or pictures because they’re “ dust collectors” and keep them to a minimum. I learned to keep furnishings to a minimum because of them. Lol 😂. So satisfying to watch you clean, Christina, I’m inspired now to do the same. Although I do a daily 10 min clean 🧼 🧽 lol 😂! Thank you 😊 for sharing. Hugs 🤗, Amy

[@oliviamay614]

If money was no object, I think I would start a cleaning business. I love cleaning. Dusting hack, get an air purifier lol. I barely have to dust in rooms where I have an air purifier (for me I have one in the bedroom and my office since that is where I spend the most time. I really like the Coway one. Also, shower cleaning hack, get one of those brushes that hold soap in it fill it with diluted dish soap and a bit of vinegar, and leave it in the shower. When you get in the shower scrub it down, shower as usual, then rinse it off.

[@jessicalise4083]

My sister has told me that duvet clips are the best and cheap af on Amazon! I want to try them as I hate doing the duvet too 😅 And you nailed it with moving the dust around! I have to vacuum first or it’s impossible to do a good job. So annoying yet necessary 😌

[@christinamashura211]

You could also clean mirror with your old tshirt) it works batter than paper)

[@hergenie]

For windows and glass try Jude’s Miracle cloths. They really are! 😊

[@MzShonuff123]

Use the squeegee to do your glass and mirrors. That’s what I’ve always used to avoid streaks

[@bellamontalvo9295]

I just love you so much 🥰

[@LoversLane16]

The newspaper is more accessible than you think. At the grocery store or the gas station look for the free Thrifty Nickel advertisements! I’m not sure if Canada has it but the US does and i get all my free cleaning newspaper there.

[@RachelGray33]

Brilliant Video! Thank you for making it. God bless, Love Rachel

[@1991ChelseaM]

Love this video! Where is your media console from? I love it and hav been searching for one for ages :)

[@goldengrace2833]

I do it to some extent every full and new moon!

[@miraearles3372]

🧼🫧 there are special towels for cleaning glass, the ones I use are called huck towels

[@reallygoodatfolding]

Make sure you clean the rest of the room before you put your fresh bedding on, then no dust will get on your clean quilt cover!

[@dannahweinzetl6988]

Coffee filters do the same trick as newspaper for cleaning glass 😊

[@akashaskyraine6609]

Hey if you don’t have glass cleaner u can just use water and newspaper, it works ❤😊

[@jbar234]

🧼I clean quite a bit every day or my house is a major disaster, lol, but I always like seeing what other people do. Thanks for sharing

[@siaeva]

Have you tried dusting with your dustbuster and the brush attachment so it doesn't scratch the furniture? It works great for me :)

[@Christinamychas]

I find it just moves dust around 😭😭

[@siaeva]

oh no! 😅@@Christinamychas

[@thealyssab_]

Instead of newspaper you can use coffee filters or reusable napkins. It’s a trick we used at cafes I worked at.

[@Roxy-the-chi]

Use your squeegee to clean your mirror! Wipe it down with water and a drop of dawn soap, and squeegee it off! it will dry streak free ❤ ( a window washers secrets 😉)

[@byersjul]

For cleaning a mirror you can always use paper coffee filters instead of newspaper too. (Sometimes easier to find haha)

[@foreverirish132]

Where is your velvet sofa from? It’s really nice 😊

[@pjp33]

There are actual mirror/glas “towel“-thingies. They have a leathery consistency and you just wet them lightly and use that to clean mirrors. Done. No cleaner, no newspaper, no waste. 🤷‍♀️

Do you wash your duvet cover every week?!? I wash my sheets every week but I’d go mental washing the duvet cover that often. I figure it’s the flat sheets job to make it not necessary to wash as often as sheets.

Haha no I think my narration made it sound that way - I’m with you haha - cover usually every couple of weeks

[@aimeesilveriofernandes12]

I always find funny how people from Europe and North America clean their bathrooms with wipes 😅 Here in Brazil we always have a drain in our bathroom right next to the toilet, and we never use wood floors in that space, which means we just splash water and soap all over the bathroom and actually WASH the whole thing

[@yaeltuttebel]

You need to turn the duvet cover inside out, and then grab the corners on the inside. Then you grab the duvet and just flip the cover over it. Easy peasy!

[@Christinamychas]

Yes this sounds far superior to my method of crawling inside and hoping for the best 🤣

I work shifts so the reset isn't the same day every week. I also have two sets of bed linen - I've seen some minimalists say they only have one as they can wash and dry in the same day. But what what if they had norovirus or something and they soiled the bed and still needed to be in it🤢

Such a relaxing video :) If you're concerned about the environmental impact of your cleaning supplies, I would avoid getting microfiber cloths for things that don't necessarily need them. Synthetic fibers leech microplastics into our water, so using things like old t shirts that you already have or natural fibers are better in that regard
