I'm from Australia, we have huge homes compared to UK and Europe, and even I agree with you. It's crazy what North Americans consider "small spaces". Perhaps they need to declutter. 1400sft = a "small home"??! The laundry - in a home with space and storage everywhere - considered "small"... the big kitchen (even for Australia)... multibathrooms.... all bedrooms with built in wardrobes 😂?! Ive done the conversion to metric (sqm) and that's bigger than my parent's home (they're wealthy/loads of space for two.... and WAY bigger than average family home here). I appreciate the Clutterbug categories, but I'd LOVE to see some Clutterbug makeovers in an inner City European family apartment OR an English Cottage.

Do not compare your life to the highlight reels you may see on KZread, Facebook, Instagram, or Pinterest. Know that what is shared is that there is not the complete reality of those people's lives and focus instead on your own happiness and blessings. Have a Beautiful and Blessed day and week. See you next video. Stay safe and healthy. God Bless.

I love the tour, Cas. It really helps tie together the whole picture of the room by room organizations you've done through the years. I especially love how you dealt with home office storage, so I really learned a lot. Thank you so much! 💜

Thank you for showing it’s possible to have an organized and tidy home with having three kids!!! I also appreciate you sharing the size of your home as it helps to see how relatable our own situation is. Glad to hear you also are doing well in a smaller home- that seems so much easier than a larger home.

Hi Cass, i love your parents Chihuahuas! We have 3 Chihuahuas and they are very sweet TO THEIR PEOPLE ONLY. They don't like lots of loud noises and want to relax and cuddle alot. It may take a little while for them to warm up to you. Let them come to you. They are great pets.

I love the ending 🤣. I know your/your husband's parents are very Thankful you have watched the dogs. The older dogs would not have done well anywhere else. Hope they bring you back a huge gift of Thanks 😂 Seriously though you are doing great!!

Can you do a video on the best planners for each clutterbug type?

I wish you lived closer so you could help me. I have no idea what to do. Everything is adequate though the kitchen is far too small. Nothing has any spark to it. No one else cares. Thank you for your cheerfulness and great ideas.

I really enjoy your content and sense of humor Cas- May I suggest you please stop calling yourself lazy and unorganized- you're so successful at this business you've created, you didn't get here by being lazy and unorganized. Self love always :)

I work at our local Goodwill Store, and I am a hanger and a folder. I am a pro at both, and I love that our store is so much better organized since I took both of these things over a year ago. Also, I swear by proper folding and hanging for EVERYTHING!! My mom taught her 3 now adult kids well!

It helps when all of your family members are on the tidy bandwagon and puts things back or away. I've tried so many organization projects around my house and they ends up as a dump all bins or containers. Even if I go in and reorganize in a short time they slowly end up filled with everything. I decided to keep my areas tidy to keep my sanity.

Declutter more. They will still leave things out but maybe not in such a large amount that it is overwhelming. My daughter I swear I go in her room once a week and come out with a garbage bag full of things to donate or just trash. Some people are just messy no matter what 🤦🏻‍♀️

Always look forward to your hilarious stories at the end. It's the cherry on top.

I'm dying - the chihuahuas! My friend had them growing up. Go in her house, they jump on the arm of the chair when you walk in and try to bite you. We get in the car, I'm in the back seat. My friend says "Oh, Peanut is going to come with us. He's a little weird in the car...What? Worse than in the house?" He jumps in the back with me...I freeze. I think I stopped breathing. He jumps back in front with her and lays down...she says, "Wow, he must like you. He didn't try to bite you." Are you kidding me ??! I feel your pain Cass. Tip to survive unscathed for month with those pups: don't breathe too loudly in bed.

@@supergran1000 absolutely could! I’m quite organised tbh, it is just tight. My main issue with UK homes is that they have odd walls. We have a chimney in our 70s house which means the sofa only fits in one place and no room in the master bedroom for a wardrobe. Windows only have about 20 cm of wall either side so built in cabinets in any room would block the windows. Total nightmare for storage options.

@@BLK2000 that sounds like New York city living in the US. That's a true challenge with small space living. I've lived in large and very small homes over the years. One thing I've learned is that if you have more space you fill it up. If you have less space you get rid of things, and learn to live with less. In most situations you find a way to organize it to make it livable for your family. Most often one room will wear many different hats. It just depends on what the current need is. Making it to my 50's I realize I could live in one room if I ever needed to. Definitely not something I would want to do, but life has taught me that I could. I always feel blessed no matter where I find myself.
