I’ve been putting our house to bed for a very long time, not just the kitchen, but fluffy pillows, turning down the beds, turning side table lamps on, picking up the bathroom, outside lights on if someone is not home yet, prepping our coffee, making sure trash is out and laundry gathered. What a blessing. Start by lighting a candle.. my house loves it I know it. Then waking it up in the morning with coffee brewing, opening doors and windows on a nice day.. making beds etc.. love your channel.

Resetting my kitchen at night is my favorite thing to do. My husband is the first one up in the morning, and I like to think its my little gift to him.

I ‘put my kitchen to bed’ at night. It is so nice waking up to a clean kitchen! Love your videos!

Same! I always clean my kitchen before bed. I can’t even start making breakfast until my kitchen is clean!

I don’t know why watching someone else clean is always SO motivating for me, but it is. Thank you for this. 😊

I cannot get over the fact that I am so different from you, and yet watching your videos calms me down in a way that amazes me! I’m 43, two boys, I live in Portugal and have a full time job out of the house (or working remotely nowadays). I’m super stressed about many things, my life is in many ways chaotic and I feel I have no time for anything. And then I watch and listen to you, and I am at peace. please beware that you are really making a difference in somebody’s life, other than your family’s, just by being you! That is amazing, at least to me! :) I wish you the best!

I have the most genuine genuine question, no sarcasm at all. Who watches your children when you’re doing this whole routine? Or they entertain themselves? I only ask as I have a 3.5 year old and 1 year old, and I would NEVER be able to do all this without them tugging at me. Anyway! Thank you

3 kids, washing dishes by hands, baking and making food from scrach - our kichen is often a mess. Under the table is sooo much food and our 1 year old eats from there, but I think that maybe its good for his immunity :D I vacuum usually twise a week and the floor is tidy about 2 hours, until we next eat

This is totally normal. I still remember I would wash the floor every day but if I washed it every time we ate it wasn't too much :D I'm almost again in that phase. Now my youngest eats little portions and I give most of the food at this time but next month will start the mess on the floors. Don't worry it will get better

Hi! For any smell use an apple! Especially in the fridge. Just make sure to peel it - it's the flesh that soaks up smells like magic. But sometimes I'm in a rush and just cut it in half and it works just fine.. My mom has been doing this since I can remember. There's always apple pieces in our fridge :)

Thank you for making a channel for in the kitchen. As a relatively new wife and mom the kitchen is my biggest struggle area. It's encouraging to see you and helps me set goals for my own space.

I binge watched all your new videos on this channel and it has inspired me so much to have a clean kitchen. It has always been so so hard for me to keep up with my kitchen but after watching your videos, I have kept my kitchen clean for the longest streak maybe ever. I have noticed such positive effects on my family and we have experienced so much peace just from having a tidy kitchen. Thank you for the inspiration. Keep ‘em coming!!!

I love closing my kitchen at night, I sleep so much better knowing I get to wake up to a beautiful kitchen. Closing the kitchen is part of my nightly reset of our main floor aka our homeschool/play area and living room. I also like to tend to my herbs, veggies, kombucha, sourdough and anything I have fermenting and tuck them all in at night 😂 but by far my favourite is wiping down the counters when everything is finished ❤ homemaking is such a dream.

I love this very practical video and to see how much you take joy in caring for your family and your home! Your videos encourage me to take joy in being a mom instead of seeing it as a burden.

Sarah!! I have been watching your channel since I was about 16 and I always thought you were so amazing! I am now 20 and I have been Married for a year and I have a daughter as well with my husband. I have been applying your skills to my house and life and it has been bliss. Thank you so much

I have been loving all of your videos on this channel so far! My mom taught me many important things but how to run a household was not one of them.. thank you for sharing your wisdom!

Nothing like taking your apron off after a long time in the kitchen. May the Lord strengthen and bless you mama ❤️

as someone who used to work in restaurants i could not imagine waking up to yesterday’s mess in the kitchen! opening and closing is essential to the functionality of a home.

Really loving this channel! I love how we can come alongside you and learn and you can share your beautiful life and family while still being really private. It feels very cozy:)

I didn't realize how much I missed watching your videos because of hom much joy and comfort and guidance they gave me until you started this new channel! Loved this video

Shaye from Elliot Homestead talks about putting your kitchen to bed and it has been life changing

That little dance was the absolute sweetest thing ever 🥰

can you make a video about sourdough starter maintenance/how to keep it alive and bubbly, with your schedule? I love your video style 😆 thank you for coming back to youtube!

Closing the kitchen is my favourite part of the night! There is something so therapeutic about resetting the kitchen. I especially love waking up to a fresh kitchen!

You’re back?? Ah! Yay. The 1 and only KZreadr I care to watch haha

I missed your home content. This is so lovely and as I was closing out the kitchen this is what entertained me.

I love that you shared this! This is such an important habit to have! It's amazing how fast you can get this done when you put your mind to it. And you can stack so many habits on top of each other to be so so so productive! Thanks so much for sharing this! ❤

Love how organized everything is in your kitchen! I put my kitchen to bed too but I’m loving some of the details you do which I’ll try to implement into mine. Thank you for sharing! ❤

I have been a long time follower, you inspired me to get my first sourdough starter tomorrow! I have a video request. Im a mom of 2 under 2 and getting any work done in the kitchen is very difficult with a lot of fussing and nursing breaks. Can you show us how you keep your kiddos at peace and/ or involve them in your kitchen work? Thank you!

A wooden playpen in the kitchen can help. The kids mostly want to know you are there. Kitchen toys of their own, so they can 'cook' while you do, can work. And two year olds love washing up (unbreakable and unsharps of course). Also, don't feel guilty if your kids fuss a bit while you are finishing a task, it helps them learn patience. 💛

Closing the kitchen routine when babies are littles can be finished once babies are to bed. I used to do some cleaning but once babies went to bed around 6-6:30 I would finish up by myself so I would still have time for them 😉😊

I enjoy watching the way you care for your family. I also have a routine of "putting my kitchen to bed" if you will. It is always nice to wake up to a clean and tidy kitchen. I have followed along with your videos for several years now! I appreciate you sharing so many things. I am (almost) 19 and have been married for close to five months. It is encouraging to see the good example of those ahead of me in caring for their families. 💛

This task is something I struggle with so often at the end of the day. Watching this is inspiring and I cant wait to play this video at night so I can feed off your energy and build a new habit! Thank you for this ❤

Just a hint on cleaning your Swedish dish cloths. Put them in the sink or a flat bowl. Add a dishwasher tab. Pour boiling water over and leave for an hour or so overnight. overnights. This sanitizes them and I find better than running thru DW.

Yes these routines are so satisfying!

in love with these videos! they are so peaceful and encouraging to watch!

Putting my kitchen to bed makes me sleep better, too 🥹🥹

I’m new here! I’m obsessed with the content as a newlywed of a month this gives me so much motivation as a homemaker

Really nice to see your hubby help clean and deep clean that is the first time I've seen this !!

Thank you for sharing! I find it really inspiring and calming to watch. I had been watching you since the videos of your first child and recently discovered you again. I find it really nice to see how you have been evolving! For a not so pleasant smell: we always use a bit of fresh coffee (powder, not beans) in a small dish. It absorbs bad odors. Or citrus juice. I hope that helps you as well! I will try the candle trick 😊

I used to think it was a chore and hated it. I was frustrated that whenever I cleaned the kitchen my other family members would make a mess again … but when I officially took over the household (it’s a common practice in our culture) I started to enjoy it because I‘m taking take of my family and serving them :)

Yesss a MUST. Best feeling. I also have implemented cleaning up the kitchen RIGHT after dinner. Too easy to kick back and then not want to do it before bed lol

This was so satisfying🤍 thank you for sharing!

Your home is beautiful Sarah. Bless 💕

Always an inspiration, glad you are back on KZread. That’s the kind of content I love to watch. I would like to see a video from you on minimalist kitchen. How do you keep your kitchen clutter free and tidy with a large family. What appliances you use and how do you store them out of sight. Also I noticed you don’t use a dish rack, what do you do with small miscellaneous dishes that get handwashed throughout the day, sippy cups, pots and pans etc

You have a beautiful kitchen and what a view outside! So cute how your baby is crawling around being fastinated by vacuum and mop. 😅

Cleaning means I have a safe and clean home to sleep in ❤ all about mindset and gratefulness

This video is the best! Super inspiring 😘 thanks!

What beautiful, priceless moments intermixed throughout your day as a Mumma. This is a dream of mine, once we have our own home. 💜

I love a closed kitxhen. I don't mop every night but do run the vacuum.

Thanks for the beautiful video💜

My Lebanese husband remembers kitchen closing growing up, and it helped his Mom in organizing home life. Homemaker duties need to have an end during the day and getting everyone to wind down is important. Had an American upbringing so this wasn't done and learned with our marriage what this was about. Is so helpful because so true Moms get tired and just need a chance to reset after a long day. The hustle and bustle must settle down and kitchen closing helps set that up so that a nice rhythm is found

😮 wow I never done this in this way and now I think I’m going to start now it makes sense ❤

I have those same bread pans. You don’t need to grease them or use parchment! They are super amazing.

Blessings from South Carolina! ❤ Please give some homemaker wisdom on your bathroom cleaning routine with products included! There has to be a better way that what I’m doing! 🥹

Love my Nellie mop! I got it because of you!

I dont always tidy up the kitchen perfectly before bed, but I do most days and it makes such a difference in how the house runs and feels. Also I've been watching your videos for a long time and I remember when you got that mop (from your mother in law??) and I love that you still use it!

Love this content! I was closing my kitchen right along side you 👋😌

Another video idea related to meal prepping: how do you stay organized and on time every week to create your meal plan for the week, grocery lists etc, do you have a designated day etc

I loved this! I'm so happy you're back on YT! It wasn't the same without you

I do this each and every night myself it just makes me feel so good and if I didn’t do it, there’s no way I could sleep. I also go through and empty all the garbage cans through the house so that the next day we start with a fresh slate. And after each shower, I spray my tub with vinegar and dawn dish soap and a sprayer bottle. Let it sit for a few minutes and then after I brush my teeth and wash my face I scrub the tub and rinse it real quick and then it’s always nice and clean for the next day. ❤

I’ve never thought of it as “closing my kitchen”, but this is something that I too do every night. Like you said, I just sleep better knowing that my kitchen is ready for the next morning. Unfortunately, we have a couple of our adult children living with us, we would never turn them away, but they sure do mess us my kitchen once I close and go to bed! I love them more then anything, and they will always be welcome to come back home, but I wish there was a way I could lock them out of my kitchen after I cleaned it…😂😂😂

I love doing this too! But also, can we talk about your amazing hallway area with that darkblue and pink?! It looks fantastic!!

I love you, Sarah! It’s hard to close your kitchen when your husbands up at midnight making food and messing up the kitchen lol

Could you do an under the sink tour? It looks pretty neat. Mine is a mess with cleaning supplies and i like the idea of trash under there

I'm watching this for the second time :D And I will be watching this again soon

You and Kieran are seriously so cute 🥹 I would love a blog about wedding, marriage, parenting advice as a couple 💗

I HAVE to get up to a clean kitchen, even with just two of us and the kids all grown and gone. Everything gets put away and dishes are either in the dishwasher (when kids were home) or washed, dried, and put away. The dishwasher was always unloaded the next morning.

Hi ST! I'm a mom of 5 as well and absolutely love your videos! I love your glass storage containers that you keep all your ingredients etc in. Can you link those to your storefront too? Or just let us know where they are from? TY for inspiring us all to keep cleaner more organized homes!

Hey Sarah! Loving your new channel SO MUCH! Wanted to ask you more about how to ferment your sourdough in the fridge. This is very appealing to me as I sometimes get nervous about missing the window and my dough over fermenting. My biggest setback for making anything sourdough is timing it right. Was wondering if you could explain the refrigeration method further? It still ferments fully? Thank you! 🙏🏻

I really enjoyed this video and I also do the same routine. I cannot stand waking up to a messy house, let alone kitchen! It stresses me out so much having to deal with the mess first thing in the morning and puts me in a bad mood. Last night I actually fell asleep with my youngest at 7pm because I felt a little sick, but I’m glad I woke up at midnight and was able to do the kitchen closing routine anyway

I love the round dry storage containers in your cupboard. Can you link those? I don’t see them in your Amazon store front. 😊 I love love love your content ❤

Before I had children I did not put my kitchen to “bed” even though I should have! Crazy I know. Now it is a must! I need to start incorporating vacuuming and mopping the kitchen because by the time dinner is said and done even if I had vacuumed or mopped that day the floors are a mess!

Excellent🥰

I close my kitchen down each night. One thing I do that's a little odd probably is start my dishwasher immediately after dinner and then put away my dishes before bed. That way in the morning I already feel "ahead". I'm a night person and not a morning person so I prefer chores at night instead of morning.

Edmen crawling is the cutest ☁️

Lighting a match, works for smells. We use it in the toilet 😆 Edit: Question. You mentioned about putting used cloth into the laundry. Do you wash them with your regular load of other clothes? I always keep mine in a basket to accumulate but I don't really like it and would like to know how you do it. Thanks, Sarah! 😊

Beautiful video. Have you ever tried beeswax candles? They are all natural and can actually help purify the air as they burn and have a wonderful honey aroma.

Hello my daughter and I have been loving your content. I have a question where did you purchase you tall jars and the other jars you have in your cabinet? They are gorgeous. Blessings ❤

Thanks for sharing this! I'm curious how long this kitchen closing/cleaning routine typically takes? It seems like a long time but maybe that's not actually the case...

Would love to know what you keep under your kitchen sink its very minimal. Also am curious of your bedtime routine with your kiddos especially since you have 5 and then close your kitchen in that same time period

Lovely video! May I ask where is that wooden long cutting board from please?

Love those shorts! Where did you get them? 😊

There is nothing better than closing one’s kitchen each evening. As soon as dinner is done, the dining table is cleaned off, leftovers and condiments put away, the dishes are done (I hand wash everything so washing, drying and putting away is done), countertops and table cleaned and disinfected, floors swept with a very quick swish of the mop, the coffe set up and the sink cleaned. As I prep all our meals and snacks for the week, there is not much prepping for the next day’s meals. Lights off and then relaxing with my husband (empty nesters who have always worked outside the home full time). There are many who will put aside daily cleaning and prepping, due to “your children are small for a short time” theory, but I have found that doing a good deep clean and declutter about 3 times a year allowed me to do maintenance cleaning and decluttering and picking up after each activity daily allowed me more RELAXED time with our children because I wasn’t thinking about the overwhelming mess in the kitchen or the living room and we all were just calmer and more relaxed during the days and evenings because we didn’t have to work or relax around our messes from that day or even week. Daily resets keeps the mind and body the ability to appreciate time with family, plus, by doing these daily pick ups and cleaning, it trains your children in the way they should go as they get older and live on their own, it’s not just about our faith and raising them as believers, training them includes daily living skills like this and finances and laundry and how to repair things like around the house and autos and yard work- we are to raise them on how to be independent and productive in all things. Bless you Sarah and Kieran for being whom God called you both to be.

Yes,for a clean kitchen in the evening.But it was a lot easier when the Kids were young .Now my boys are grown up,22,20,17 and 12.The 3 older one they stay Up late,I go top bed at 9 p.m😊They often have friends here and of course they're eating Chips and other things or they decide at 11 p.m. they want a Pizza,because boys can eat a lot.😅Yes ,they clean their stuff normally,but maybe not exact as I would do,its not necessary so the Boys😅 and Im a perfectionist.But not so much a perfectionist as I was before kids😂.Its OK,Life goes on and I Love my 4 boys❤Greetings from 🇩🇪

I was asking this question myself since getting married but for me, it's really learning by doing in the sense that it depends how much you cook and eat and how much you use containers for bake goods or homemade jelly. Looking back, I'd start with two sets of small, medium and large containers and go from there. Hope that's a bit helpful 😆

Also p.s. no one is perfectly “crunchy” enjoy your candles if you like them :) I personally hate candles because they all give me a headache 😂 my sister loves them though she has like a million different ones lol
