I found that purchasing a robot vacuum has really helped me feel better about my home. I would much rather clean the corners after the vacuum than having to vacuum the entire space myself. Having clean floors not only looks better, but it also makes me feel better about my house. Good tips! Thanks.

Yup! A total game changer 🙌🏻 People always balk at the open shelving in my kitchen, but I swear I rarely need to dust it! My robot vacuum does all the heavy lifting every day on the floors so dusting is minimal.

When our three kids were super busy, I dedicated each one the INSIDE of a busy cupboard door (where we kept the coffee, plates, glasses) and everytime I opened those doors several times a day, I could see their schedules, permission slips, forms, etc. However before those schedules got taped up, their event went on the Mom Schedule (inside another supboard door) which was a grid with a column for each kid and I would just write "piano 4 PM", "football 4 PM at Elkhorn" etc. This same text went on my phone calendar. This helped our clutter (and forgetting things).

I really don't miss those days when I had kids in school and the end of the kitchen bench became a general paper pile with mail, school notices, junk mail etc. No matter how often I went through it, the pile never seemed to get smaller - the amount of paper a kid brings home from school is ludicrous.

I have coffee maker, toaster and rice cooker on the countertop. I am pretty fortunate to have a utility room in the laundry room...but the big vacuum is in the garage. My entry way is one I cannot seem to really organize and I really need shoe cabinets but still not finding the most practical and one that can add character to the entry way. I don't have TV in the bedroom since I don't really watch Tv, I do everything in my desk top computer. Thanks for the other tips as always Julie.

Size up if you like the look of bedding pooling to the floor Barbara. That’s what a king would look like on a queen bed. If it’s a fluffy quilt/coverlet though, I would probably stick to the same size since the proportions are scaled properly 👍

It helps me to get rid of everything I don't need or use, and be careful about what I bring home, even gifts. Right now, my working area can use some storage. Thank you for this content!!

Hi Julie. Your vlog coincided with me decluttering ,cleaning and organising my mums kitchen and laundry room! I find I’m more productive if my home is clean and organised. I don’t like to have too much clutter on surfaces but it helps that we have a lot of built in storage. Definitely prefer the fridge doors to be debris free. We have a small notice board behind the back of a cupboard door for schedules, coupons etc but I’ve noticed that so much more is sent by email and forms submitted online that there is very little by way of paper these days. Thanks as always for the inspiration and tips. I’m off to do some more organising whilst I’m on a roll! ❤
