You are so pretty. Years ago and now you are very pretty. I struggled with acne since 18 after I had a facial and it never went away. As a cosmetologist and working on brides and shows where everyone would tell me I was the one that needed the makeup, boy, talk about dropping your self esteem and stepping on it. It's been hard to recover from that. The irony is now that I'm disabled and don't go anywhere I found a doctor that treated my acne and my skin is finally cleared. Lol that's life I guess .

Thanks loads. At 71years of age I have found out I am a Ladybug. Old Motto: There’s always a bigger Container. New Motto: If there’s too much stuff in the Container it’s because We have too much stuff. Decluttering, Donating & Destroying (aka Rubbish)

Great organizing and decluttering tips - but your encouragement at the end is priceless! And let me mention the flip side of how one comment can be so damaging - just one comment can be the encouragement someone needs! Sixty years ago, a sweet pastor's wife thanked a teenage boy who had given something to her by saying, "Thank you. You will be a good provider." That comment planted a flag in the heart of that boy, abused and unloved at home, and guided him as he grew. I've been married to him for 54 years, and he has been a good provider and has loved us all so well. It was a great lesson for us - look for opportunities to speak encouragement.

I am also going to reconfigure my house and get rid of multiple appliances and replace it with one. Thanks for the inspiration.

Same here, husband passed away 4 yrs ago. Every year I go through the whole house again & get rid of things that as the only person in the house, that just isn’t being used. 3 weeks it was my small kitchen appliances, apparently, I owned half a kitchen store. Lol When I was still cooking for a family I used it. Just me, nope. We did one of the attics last week, I have 5. It feels so good to watch the things going to other people who can still get years of service out of them. It’s a difficult journey trying to make the house your own space, that there isn’t anyone else to consider when making changes.

I’ve watched almost all of your videos and I neeeeeeeed more decluttering videos! You are the ONLY one I could listen to all day and not once get annoyed 😂😂😂

The 'don't buy containers before you have a purpose for them' is THE ONE. I measured a set of badly used drawers (after throwing out the crap that was in them), and spent a week shopping around for containers that would fit them exactly. I didn't care what they looked like, I just cared about the measurements. I found them (metal shower organisers in the end!), I used string to make compartments in them, and now I have all my art pens organised in my drawers, separated by type and colour. JOY.

Love you and your helpful tips, Cass! * Don't try to organize the whole house at the same time. (Decision fatigue is real!) * Sort into 2 piles: KEEP or GO. Then do the KEEP pile further. * Don't buy containers first without knowing its purpose. Only buy containers to fit the space or use/recycle something that you already have. * Don't try to aim for "Pinterest-worthy" right away. * Only organize for function! * Goal is to have it better than it was yesterday. * Don't try to organize clutter... ¹. Declutter first, ². Organize! Only have things in your home that you use and love.

As someone with adhd I thought I could never have a clean and organized home. I thought I would be stuck forever in a cycle of getting everything set up and organized just for it to be messed up again. Seeing you (a woman with adhd) not only succeed but thrive through organization is so refreshing and motivating. If you can do it why can’t I? You’re videos have given me the confidence to try and take my life back from my stuff. Thank you so much, great video and great channel!!!

Decluttering one drawer or one small space at a time is so amazing! Thanks Cas. Words are powerful. We can choose to use them to lift one another. You go Girl! You are beautiful (and hilarious in the best way!) Apparently you are loved and appreciated by all of us here. 🤗

You’re SO right. It took me an entire day to clean out under my bed. An entire day to clean one small closet. Don’t kid yourself- it’s exhausting and takes a lot of time

This video was perfection! I needed the reminder that my organization doesn’t need to be visually perfect. I wasted so much money last year trying to achieve this and ended up less content than ever. Also, I have never thought anything about your smile other than it looks joyful and genuine, which means it’s beautiful. I also didn’t know a “gummy smile” was a thing, and tbh I’m still not convinced it’s a thing. I’m glad you see the humor and ridiculousness of it, but I’m legit angry for you. How DARE someone tell you that the reflection of your happiness doesn’t look like her ideal.

Sometimes I watch Hoarders for motivation to declutter because I don't want my house to end up looking like *that* house. And what I've realized is shifting my mindset is possibly more important than getting rid of stuff.

Free container ideas without visual clutter: reassemble shoeboxes and other cardboard boxes inside out; add a pretty label. For kitchen canisters, tear the label off of oatmeal round tubs - theyre plain cardboard underneath; add a pretty label. So much easier than getting stickers off of jars, the wide mouth makes it easy to scoop into, and they're all matching and opaque for those of us who dislike visual clutter.

I have been trying to get my best friend to declutter, because he says he wants to, and has seen how I live. We’ll start a room, like his office, but, he doesn’t follow the next part of decluttering, which is: don’t let it get that bad again. I try telling him to throw out trash, papers no longer needed, empty boxes and envelopes, bubble wrap (he buys a lot of stuff), etc. Falls on deaf ears. It’s easier and faster, and less stressful to pick up, and get rid of trash as it’s made, than wait for the room to get overwhelmed again.

I found A Slob Comes Clean and then Cas (Clutterbug Me) - these two together helped me soooo much.

A piece of advice that really helped me (I wish I could remember where I heard it from) is to only store things if they are equal to the amount of space they take up. For example, if your house is $75/sq ft and you’re storing a 1x1 box, it needs to have $75+ worth of stuff in it. The old towels…gone. Old shoes…gone. Grandma’s silver cutlery…keep. It makes it easier to determine what’s worth storing and what is not worth the space it’d take up. Hope that makes sense and that it helps someone.

Sounds good in theory, but for some people this would devolve into them looking around and swapping out their mountains of junk for way too many “collectible” $100 figurines or something similar. They’d still have way more clutter than their space could comfortably fit, just now instead of a pile of old linens it would be a giant cabinet they bought to hold a mass of figurines, or expensive handbags, etc.

@noshka

I’m sorry this is not good advice. It should be determined by how useful it is or how you enjoy it. I used to have expensive crap I never used and while decluttering I could sell them. Also I have cheap stuff that I genuinely like or use on a regular basis that is worth keeping. If you don’t like grandma’s cutlery and you never use it, maybe just sell it even though it’s expensive. If you really like this big whatever then keep it even though it’s cheap 🤷🏻‍♀️

As of today, I have decluttered about 40% of our stuff. I'm a ladybug, so you'd never know every drawer and cupboard and closet were stuffed to the gills. The most amazing thing is my packrat hubby is noticing the difference and has begun parting with 60 years of memorabilia! This is none short of miraculous! Thanks, Cass, for keeping it real. Sharing your life. And making such a huge impact on my life :)

I never commented...I have been watching all your videos for 3 years now... But....arghhhhh! Your smile is awesome! You're a beautiful woman... please don't try to change yourself again! You're our favorite just as you are , or just as you will be 10-15 years from now on! Love you! 🤗

Cas, I’ve been watching your videos for the last couple months and you’ve really inspired me to declutter and organise my home. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOU!!! Your wisdom, your tips, but most of all your sense of humour, no BS approach, real life advice and great personality. You are soo entertaining. I could watch you all day, all the way from Ireland 🇮🇪. Keep ‘em coming. You’re the best!!!

"I'm not buying my kids' school snacks based on the color of the package." THANK YOU!!! Ugh, I too sometimes get caught up in pinterest worthy visions of what my home "should" look like. This will now forever be my call back to reality 😂

I love that you aim for functional organization, not just aesthetics. I like things to be pretty, but I hate when it’s so perfectly pretty that it’s unrealistic no longer functional for life. Thank you for saying that!

Your smile is one of the things that made me like your videos ! Don't change a thing, physically you're just the perfect yourself, and to us, you're motivating, helping, and giving good vibes. Thank you for all your advices, sharing your experience, and for your nice warnings on all the different subjects you talk about in this video. Hi from France.

I am glad to have watched till the end: You are a stand up comic at heart!!!! Thank you for denouncing the fake everything; fake house, fake face, fake photos! Heck! Fake friends! Friends like us the way we are and they will be there when life pulls the rug under your feet. This is the best organizational video I saw in a long time!

Cass, I say it too many times but, I say it again. You make me feel so normal and that helps me so much. HUGS! Thanks for being a part of my journey. I will also add, in case you wonder how you have so many views and not as many likes. I think its bc people put you on their TVs to watch and its not as easy to "click" the like button. 8K views in an hour is impressive!

CASS! This video is LIFE CHANGING!!! This is IT. I can do it now. I’m pretty good at organizing but this was ALL I needed to hear to really, finally get it done. THANK YOU!!!

Yes! Feeling inspired again.

Loved ALL of this! Esp the end!!!! Yes, I have to declutter. My husband finally started going through things in the garage and realized how much junk was in a small space and agreed that if we take the time to purge the junk, we will have plenty of space. I also realized we won’t need as much storage because we’re clearing out a lot.

How have I only just found you?This was SO helpful. Practical hints that will actually make organising achievable! And you are hilarious! Added bonus: your pep talk at the end really hit home. Thank you 🙏

I have implemented your clutter bug system into my home & it has NEVER been this decluttered!! Thank you 🙏

Happy to help!

I just had to say thank you!! Really!!!! THANK YOU!!!! Thank you for your honesty, thank you for being real, thank you for hitting the nail on the head. "Organization doesn't get you more space, getting RID of things does!!!" Such a simple statement with something so difficult to comprehend!!!! I just adore you and your channel. God Bless you! Oh and by the way no cosmetic surgery is needed!!! You look great!! And don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

"What if everyone is puking at the same time?" ... why was that funny to me?! 😂 Excellent advice from a woman with a ridonkulously big heart! ❤

Your humorous honest segment on the dr...so glad you saw it for what it was...face shamming to sell. Your beautiful and real inside and out and that is beauty 😊

YES, Use Kleenex and shoe boxes for storage containers! Especially when you’re first figuring out what needs storing and where. You may end deciding to relocate tools to a better place, or grouping things differently - which store-bought, pricey bins and containers would discourage. They just become a deterrent to organization, and an unnecessary expense. And clutter in themselves!

Too funny! I raided my cardboards recycling bin last year for temporary sorting bins in my hard to reach cupboards. Shredded wheat boxes, maxipad boxes, tissue boxes, tea boxes, anything that would fit in my awkward shelces to seperate medications, essential oils, dog things, cat things, Of course whenever i opened the doors it drove me nuts because the amount of different shapes and colours was making my brain buzz. So i covered them in a lovely patterned shelf liner vinyl. They are still there! Hahaha. Whatever works, so long as it works!

I almost cried. I called my husband into the room and said, "This woman knows all about me!" When the bin part came up, my husband said, "Yeah! Yeah! Did you hear that? Did you hear what she just said?" It was so funny how right she is. 🤣

Absolutely 💯 Love your content!! I need to play this on repeat for my adult daughter 😂 she gets so overwhelmed, doesn't know where to start so she doesn't, she really needs to watch this! Love this! Thanks for sharing and I'm definitely going to pass it on!

For fellow-adhd-persons: To declutter not only use the keep-box and got-to-go-box, use a box for: keep-but-other-place-box. Why? If I find a tool I know that belongs in the toolbox from husband, but when I put the tool in there I get distracted and before I know it, I’m decluttering our freezer. 😓 and I’m not aware of being distracted

Cas, you hit the nail right on the head with this end story. When I was maybe 17 or 18 years old, my mother woke me (I was working nights in a pub) and said that she would help me pay for a nose job, should I want one. It was not something that I had EVER considered. She thought that was the reason I was wearing my hair with bangs over my eyes. To this day - I am now 57 years old - I am totally paranoid about my nose - even tough my lovely husband says he cannot see anything wrong with it. You would think I could get over it, wouldn't you?!! Thank you so much for all of your insights. I really appreciate your words. Love you to bits.

Noses, noses, noses!! My father offended me by saying that I look better from the front than from the side. And that my ears aren't that small. (When they are perfectly fine! Even I think they are perfectly fine. For crying out loud!) I suspect nobody ever made any such remarks about *his* appearance. The strange things people say ...! What kind of world are we living in?! Things are becoming stranger by the minute, so hopefully more and more people will be inspired to think for themselves and take a stand!

I don't know if you've said it before, but "organizing for the space instead of the stuff" pretty much blew my mind. This is my lunch break... How am I gonna finish my work with a blown mind? This just keeps repeating in my brain like a mantra. And there is NOTHING wrong with your smile. Please! You are lovely, Cas!

It's like going to the nail salon..lol Pedicure..."Oooo look, been too long".😂 One time someone asked when I was due..never wear gathered blouses again😂.

I love that "You have too much stuff."! 😂🤣😂 That is me!

I freakin' love your honesty!!! This video was literally a friend that sat down with me and said, "Arlene, get your s&*$ together!" I appreciate it, thank you Cass!!!!

“If you can’t find somewhere to shove it, you have too much stuff”….I needed to hear that! I have containers I cleared out of a drawer about 4 months ago (OMG I didn’t realise it was so long ago!!) that have “lived” on my kitchen bench ever since. Time to say goodbye to them I think 😂

I loved the ending!

“What if everyone’s puking at the same time?” 😂 I’ve been there!

We just moved into our first home. When we moved there was SO MUCH STUFF. I was in major denial. I've been binging organizing content so I can figure out what to keep and what to toss and I love your content. We are remodeling the kitchen and I can't wait to unpack everything and purge so much junk!

"So take a look at your crap...." I have never felt more seen 🤣

I’ve made all these mistakes in organizing. I’ve even taken a couple of these mistakes to a new level (like putting each small pile into ziplocks, placing the ziplocks into a prematurely-purchased storage container, then filling the empty drawer with a new collection of random crap). You’ve shown me the error of my ways lol and I’m feeling encouraged to try organizing in a better way. Thanks so much!

2:37 THANK YOU for giving me permission to do that and not feeling guilty about it!

Finally, someone getting real. I love your common sense. Organize for function! Yes! I appreciate you’re being real and support. ❤ and thank you for reminding me I should organize what I need, not the junk.

I love how you present decluttering in a simple and humerus way that we can all manage in our everyday lives.

Cass, you always speak to my heart! I grew up in a hoarded house. It really affected me as a child. I'm always afraid the house will get away from me and become as it was as a child. Irrational, I know, but it is what it is. As an adult, I went polar opposite and have to have everything extremely organized. Even to the point that it is stressful. When sorting, seeing a lot of items scattered at once causes paralyzation for me. So your advice is VERY valuable to me, as always, but this one is probably my favorite. I appreciate how you break it down in little steps and give the hard truth. And I appreciate YOU! You are beautiful, smart, and oh my gosh, funny! I'm so glad you know you are enough and don't need that face stuff! God bless and thank you for what you do! ❤

Thanks. I think you’re my new favourite KZreadr. ❤

I am SO glad that I listened to this video to the very end. Thank You for reminding us how we should not let other people’s opinions about our physical appearance affect how we feel about ourselves. We are all fine, just the way that we were born!
