WHY Declutter? Less Cleaning & More Time
WHY DECLUTTER
LESS CLEANING & MORE TIME
Can decluttering REALLY give me less cleaning and more time? I’m slowly starting to see that in my life. More importantly it’s made a more patient, less overwhelmed person in general. Those were side effects I didn’t even see coming! For a long time I’ve been drawn to decluttering and minimalism and I don’t think I’ll ever be an extreme minimalist but I CAN get rid of the things that aren’t serving me. There are so many tips and tricks that I’ve been searching for as well and while I don’t feel qualified to preach about them, I’ll share some resources and the people I’ve been listening to who totally are! If you’re as interested in minimalism and decluttering as I am maybe you’ve heard of them, or maybe there’s someone on this list who you haven’t heard of and could gain even more insights from. Let me know who your favorite pro on the subject is in the comments!

I broke my moms flower vais and there’s broken glass everywhere what do I do and I don’t want my cats to eat glass
Oh no!! Go in for the big ones first then the vac and if you don’t get to anything else that’ll make a big difference!!
@@countrywifelife ok thanks!
My stains are from pee pee
Just did this and it works!
How is this used?
This is amazing and wonderful for cold sores!! Question: does the metal lid rust with this solution?
Not that I’ve seen! But also I bottled it and cut it with some glycerin
It’s interesting to see the different perspectives. In my research and studies, the dried is typically better for alcohol tinctures as the water-soluble constituents aren’t what you’re after- since your menstruum is alcohol not water. Dried herbs are viewed as having more concentrated amounts so you can use less herbs in your tincture. Lemon balm especially doesn’t have a ton of water soluble constituents that are gone if not taken fresh.
Great video
It removes urine, sick, sweat, etc. I have just cleaned my sister's mattress and it is like new.
So glad to hear!!!
Waterproof mattress covers are great for protecting your mattress from stains.
This is actually good for those that don't have a deep clean wet vac like the Bissel little green machine.
Yes!! I didn’t have one for a long time and even now it’s easier to do this than that 😅
Great idea 💡 👍 👏 👌
I LOVE your morning routine videos, they are motivating for me! I hope to see more! 😍
Good organizing video for a bathroom! I'm almost done watching all your video's! I just restarted watching them where I left off here and their still great ❤❤❤❤
I did this and soaked it for 1 hour it did not lift anything
Can you use white vinegar instead of hydrogen peroxide?
It would be a different product altogether then… the vinegar would react with the baking soda and I’m not sure if it would pull anything off or not. You may want to shampoo that off immediately if you try it. With the peroxide there whitening happening from that plus the baking soda (similar to how they whiten teeth in toothpaste) and also it dries up so you can take it off the top without it soaking too far into the bed.
I tried this today and it didn't work as well on mine as you show. And I even had to scrub some after it sat all day and dried. Don't expect miracles here. Mine did lighten the stains but did NOT completely remove them.
Sometimes you have to do it 2 or 3 times.
This is true her stains are very light if your stains are darker will need more work don’t give up 😊
Very true! Mine were very fresh as well, that changes things.
Baking soda, hydrogen peroxide Make sure baking soda is fully saturated Let dry completely ( might have to leave overnight) Sweep up excess then vacuum over it
Cornstarch absorbs sweat marks
Oh that’s right!!
How long does it take to dry and what doyou use if you run out of hydrogen peroxide
Distilled or purified water may work, but I’ve never tried them. Maybe do a spot test? It may make the problem worse without peroxide.
Also I leave it as long as possible. Not sure exactly how long it takes that depends on how wet you get the area and how thick the baking soda is. If possible I like to leave it all day to be sure it’s dried out. It’ll be crunchy when it’s dry.
It started molding after a day idk what I did wrong
@@Iluvpinkbows oh my!!! I wouldn’t have any idea about that! Perhaps it pulled mold out of the mattress? So sorry that happened!
@@countrywifelife it's okay gives me an excuse to buy a new mattress and plus this one is done for atp
Why would you dry them out tho? Herbs have both water-soluble and alcohol-soluble compounds. When you dry a plant out, you lose all the water-soluble elements that work alongside the alcohol derived medicines. Fresh is best when tincturing, 9 times out of 10.
Thank you! I would say for me the biggest benefit of drying them would be because I never get to things when I think I will and so drying them for me helps ensure they’ll still be good when I get to it! Tho I can see how fresh would be best. Thank you so much! I’m not an expert on this at all 😅
how do you apply this in your diet? take a shot before bed or?
Yes or whenever feelings of anxiety come around! I take a dropper (probably 1-2 ml) each “dose”
I spilled an entire cup of coffee on my matress 😪 thank you!
Won’t that go all the way down the mattress? How did u clean it
@Fatima.ameen3 hm I’ve never thought about that, but I never pour it on… I just spray the top so that the air can dry it 🙂 I’ve never had a problem while making sure not to over saturate 🙂
This didn’t work good enough for me I accidentally left a water bottle cracked open on my bed and I came back home and it was a massive puddle a few months ago, it seeped the sweat out of my sheets into my mattress and I can’t get it out
Oh man 😥 that happened on my son’s bed and this took the edge right out! I wonder if a shampooer might be able to help in your case?
Rent or purchase an extractor for fabrics and mattresses, just make sure you rinse thuroughly with only water
What make and model is the washing machine?
This was a Samsung. I love the capacity but that was the 2nd one I’ve had that went out. I now have a similar whirlpool and it came much more recommended by anyone I talked to who knew about appliances. Samsung clothes washers are very well known for going out after a few years.
Thank you so much ive been looking for a easy recipe ❤ with no bases and shea butter 😅
“Sweat stain” yeah ok
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
These videos really motivate me! Our spring cleaning comes later! More like a deep summer time cleaning😅
Moms keep things going!! All in the time it takes to make breakfast!
Good job! I can't wait till it warms up to do this myself!!!
Haha i definitely resonate with sweeping up the toys! My kids rescue them too. Number 8, i always use that concept, especially if i feel overwhelmed.
I need to soak my pillows! Thanks for this. When I get a chance I want to try this!
What if you don't have a vacuum what will you use cos my bed is very dirty because of my kids that's their playing ground Please help me
I would say sweep it as best you can, and maybe dab it thoroughly with a damp cloth! But I can’t really vouch for that so please make sure that that’s gonna be good in a small spot first ♥️
Can u uses normal hover like henry
@abidangurung3270 I just used my regular vac, (I have a shark but ive used others too) but I’d say that the more you sweep up the better no matter what vac you use 🙂
Thanks for the inspiration 😊
"Sweat stain" 😏
Thank you, i just want to clean my mattress
Try scouring stick for the stuck on grease. After you spray with heavy duty degreaser
I’ve just been seeing about that! Where would you recommend getting those?
So how do you use this tincture? Do you drink it?
I take a dropper or two throughout the day, and for kids you can dilute in hot water or tea (then cool) so the alcohol evaporates out 😊
Thank you
Are you coming back? Miss your videos, I'd found your channel not too long ago and think it's great! Hope you're well!
I do plan on making content soon, just been super busy!! It’d be so much easier if I didn’t need to do any editing 😊
Just wanted to say I still really miss your videos! I'm sure you're really busy, just wanted you to know how great I think your channel is, hope you're doing well!@@countrywifelife
@samm5269 thank you so much this mean a lot 🥹 ! I’m planning to do more videos, but I’m just not sure when that’ll be. Thanks for your support!!
Does this work on a coloured mattress? My mattress is hot pink and the top feels like silk 😅
Definitely do a spot test somewhere not obvious if you’re not sure! I reallly don’t know if it would work on that or if it would kinda bleach it 🤔🫣
I just cleared a 5x15 storage locker from a move years ago...turned out most of the boxes were DOOM boxes--thrown together late in the move. I had several things I swore I had let go of (obviously I waffled on them) and it was relatively easy to donate all that stuff. (I don't recommend waiting that long.)
You dont need to hang them up for tincture. Best not to actually
really! Thank you for sharing, I don’t know how potent the tincture is, but it seems very strong to me, stronger than when I had done it with fresh 🤔 what are you supposed to do with the herbs? 😊
'promosm'
I'd like to know who makes this and if there is contact information on the box. I have one of these older models. They used to have a website and they used to be based in Utah. I tried the number (I still have the old packaging) but it is not their number any longer. The model I had was back when they had batteries that could not be removed. So that was a long time ago. But it has better scrubbing heads at the time. Anyway, I'm just wondering if there's any contact info for this company and if they are still based in the United States. Even back then they used to make it in China, but they were based in the USA.
I don’t know, I already donated the scrubber 🫣 wish I could help!!
Baking soda stained my new mattress!! How do I get rid of it?🤦🏽♀️
Oh my I’m so sorry! Since I’m not entirely sure of the details, the only thing I can think is flushing with water? Spraying then dabbing and repeat a few times. But I don’t know material of your mattress or exactly how it stained, or if it was dark and the peroxide stripped the color? so if you try this please take caution and don’t go forward if you don’t feel comfortable. 🙂
I added baking soda and water without actually looking it up on how to properly clean it. The spot was small And I scrubbed it and it became large and now it’s stained yellow. I’m not sure what I can to do to reverse it. I believe my mattress is cotton but the top feels silky.
@@hollylove6659 is the mattress white? If you only used baking soda and water, you might have pulled some staining up to the surface.
@@hollylove6659 if you feel comfortable with doing what’s in the video and letting it fully dry, it will draw out any staining and you’ll be able to sweep it off.
Yes, it’s white
I really love your videos
Thank you so much! That means more than you know ♥️ I’m so glad you do!
I really need to declutter , I’m gonna get started tomorrow 😊
That’s awesome! I would highly recommend watching/listening to something that gets you super motivated WHILE you’re decluttering that makes a huge impact for me!! I hope you find what you need from it in the process ♥️
Dried herbs are best for nourishing herbal infusions or tisanes (tea).Fresh herbs are best for tinctures due to need to extract the water soluble properties .
Thank you for sharing! I’ve heard the exact opposite too, I’ll have to research that more closely! Thank you again, I want to get the most out of the herbs!
@@countrywifelife I came here to see if anyone confirmed this. In my search I've read the same thing. How did the tincture turn out with the dry herb?
It turned out very fragrant, dark colored and flavorful! I mixed it 50:50 with plain glycerin to dilute it, and I can definitely tell a difference when I take it and when i don’t.
I too have found the opposite. In my research it does work best with dried when doing an alcohol tincture. Water-soluble constitutes are typically extracted best with water. Alcohol is geared more towards obtaining the alkaloids, sugars, enzymes, volatile oils, resins, and some minerals and vitamins but precipitates out mucilage (which is water-soluble; extracted best with water)

Thank you!!! I’ll have to try this. I love hacks like that!
Girl I had a room JUST like this and my husband and I just got in there and got it done. So happy we did because I’m a virtual teacher and I’m happy to have this space back! Edit- sorry for all the typos lol just corrected 😄
Oh my goodness really!! That’s amazing I bet that felt soooo good! I’ve tried to tackle this room so many times by organizing and it’s just never worked! Gonna have to Declutter and this time I’m excited!!
What is your why? Have you seen the benefits yet? Where are you at in your decluttering journey? I am in the “messy middle” as the minimal mom says!
