Yup. Have been for about 15years?! 🤭 (The Malitose/daycare days when her girls were toddlers 💗) ... I have loved cube shelves ever since 😂 SO much so, that I also bought my niece her own Kallax (+Drona boxes) when I re-decorated her bedroom a few years back! My main one stores my records, plus our boardgames and puzzles, art&learning supplies (for my 6yr old), and has a couple of open "display" cubes. It's also the kitchen/living room divider in our tiny apartment 😎 They're just so freakin versatile!! I can't thank Cas enough for (rightly) raving about them 🥰
I was literally dying of laughter throughout this entire video!!! The story at the end just topped the cake! I absolutely LOVED the little songs that she would sing to herself while cleaning! I love her authenticity and how real she is.
!!** This is by FAR my absolute favorite video you've posted in a few years!! I literally had tears coming down my face from laughing so hard! This reminds of your older videos, how open and freaking hilarious you are, I love when you don't do voice over the entire time and you talk to us while you're doing whatever you're doing. It's my fav. Thank you for the tips and making my day ❤️
Thank you for not editing to make your life seem flawless like so many other creators. This is my first video of yours. I’ll definitely be watching more ❤
Clicked on here to “Borrow Motivation” because Cas always gives me motivation. I’m only 2 minutes in and I’m laughing hysterically at the puppy while Cas is cleaning the sofa. If you didn’t notice when you watched, go back and watch again. It’s so cute and funny 💜🤣
I missed that the first time too!! It's hilarious! Thanks for sharing that, I got a great laugh!!! Of course I laughed through almost the entire video! Cas is such a hoot!!! Just love her!
I live for the story at the end of each video, and this one did NOT disappoint!! I was literally dying of laughter throughout the entire video, but the story at the end took the cake! I absolutely LOVED the little songs that you'd sing to yourself while cleaning. I love your authenticity, and just how real you are. I am going to watch this video again!
So nice to see someone on yt not trying to hide all the flaws! It made me feel better about the times when I am shocked to find certain areas of my house looking so gross too. hahaha Also, totally can relate to trying to move my fridge!
I'm living by your words of doing what you can, when you can. Yesterday, while waiting for something cooking in the microwave, I took a spray cleaner and wiped down my fridge a bit. It needed it!! Almost every day I manage to get a little something done to make my home less of a mess. It's nice to not feel so useless, as I've been used to feeling. Thank you!! ❤️
OMG, I love you so much! I am 70 years old and have learned more from you than in my whole life. Thanks to you I also now know I have have ADHD, and I'm exactly like you in every other quirky way. You are honest, sincere, hilarious and just plain real! Thank you so much for sharing and keep up the great work!
‘Neglected cleaning coming back to bite’ story - my oldest always wanted to have a birthday party at home, but Mommy wasn’t organized enough, so we had them at various party places around the city. When my youngest was 3, I decided to attempt the dreaded home birthday party for the eldest, and cleaned out the basement playroom (o.k., hid the crap in the utility room), and did what I thought was a thorough clean, concentrating on the basement because I thought that’s where they’d be. One Mom stayed, and followed me upstairs to the kitchen. I saw the look of horror on her face and followed her eyes up to the tops of the cupboards, where there was extra thick line of dust all the way along. I’m short - I hadn’t noticed it. She and her kids never visited my house again! 🤣
My Spring cleaning hack...have my over six foot tall husband clean all the lights and fans. I got into a habit of wiping down the inside of my refrigerator and stove once a week before I grocery shop and now I rarely do a deep clean.
I've never had a dog, but I grew up with and have always (until recently) owned a budgie. I can so relate to doing housework with budgie claws scrabbling on my scalp.
I am laughing to the point of tears! You are so genuine and funny. You keep it real and don't hide the "normal" stuff. Thank you for showing the everyday things we all deal with and not sugar-coating it!
Case, I've watched you for a while and really liked how unfiltered and fun you were. For a bit there, your channel became a bit more highly produced and, honestly, less of what I had really liked about your channel. This video was back to you being fun and quirky and made me smile
You need a bissel steam shot! You can use it in so many places and makes cleaning so much easier! Ice cube dispenser on the fridge, window sills, inside of the garbage can, bottom on toilet where it meets the floor etc.
I actually had a book on how to speed clean your house and one of his biggest best ideas is bring in a bucket with your cleaning solution and your rags Never put your dirty rags back in the bucket when your rug is dirty use the new one when they’re all dirty can you bring them back to the kitchen and rinse them out that way your cleaning solution doesn’t get compromised and saves a lot of time actually
re: cleaning above kitchen cabinets. One of my tricks for cleaning these is to put parchment paper down after I wipe everything down. The paper catches dust and grease, which makes for super easy cleanup next time.
Cleaning my light fixtures is about the only chore that my husband helps me do. He's taller and has long arms. No ladder! He takes the covers down while I wash them in soapy water, rinse and dry. He puts them back and brings me more. This cycle goes on for about an hour and the whole house is done. So much cleaner than spray and wipe.
Yup my husband is in charge of replacing lightbulbs, as I hate stepladders and he can just stand on the floor and reach em! Sounds like good teamwork on the lights in your house Vondra 👏
@@lulul0l039 I learned (and implemented) a lot of Melissa&Chad "Clean My Space"s ideas about dividing up the chores. Eg. I detest washing dishes / hubby doesn't mind doing them = that's his main chore. VS He hates scrubbing the bathroom and I don't mind it = I do it. I do pretty much the rest of the chores (apart from his car and the terrapin) as I'm the primary parent and only work part-time. You're totally right about figuring out a fair division of labour according to circumstances. 😊
I have been using a pretty butcher paper wrap on the top of my fridge. It keeps the dust from settling on top so quickly. Once it gets too dusty, just replace. Saves me a ton of time and effort!
I clean my ice maker and water dispenser about once a month. I turn off the ice maker and open the door to clean it (or dump the ice out and start fresh) that way it doesn't come out. I use a warm cloth with a little vinegar and wipe it all down. I feed the cloth through the ice maker from the inside of the fridge to the outside. I'm grossed out every time I do it.
I filled an extra large spray bottle with distilled water, so after I clean the refrigerator ice maker & water dispenser, and other appliances that contact food/drinking water, I can rinse things easily with sprays of distilled water so it removes the soap and doesn't leave water spots.
I've put a piece of cloth on top of my fridge. I use magnets to hold it on the sides. When it's time to clean, just wash the cloth in the laundry. No more gross top of the fridge!
I have never laughed so hard while watching a spring cleaning video! I will definitely do spring cleaning this weekend because of this. Thank you for being awesome!
One time a babysitter decided to run my dishwasher. She used liquid dish soap. When I came home, I could see billows of suds floating through the backyards. She was in tear’s trying to swish them out the sliding glass door. I simply tossed in a slightly used wet Brillo pad closed the door and in a while, all the suds were gone. Easy fix to a panic situation.
Oh Cass, you are sooo entertaining! I just love watching you especially if I'm having a bad day. 😂 Let me see if I can make you smirk. About the dishwasher and dish soap...once I left my 10 yr old son home with his older brother. They were supposed to clean up a little and do dishes. They couldn't find the dishwasher detergent so the younger one decided to use dawn dish soap. Yep, filled up the little dispenser. That dishwasher never worked again. I walked in the door and OH MY...!
OMG I am crying and will soon pee my pants after that “early morning boob” story. Actually this whole video was brilliant. Still thinking the “fake-close-to-throwing-up” in the laundry room was actually not fake. And I will NEVER look at my ceiling lights again without thinking “titty lights”. 🤣🤣🤣. Very excellent spring cleaning vid. Actually the best I’ve ever watched. You didn’t mention baseboards once, for which I thank you. Or I missed it from laughing too much…
For base boards (especially molded/detailed ones) I use the upholstery brush head for the vacuum, then quickly run the mop over them when I mop the kitchen floor. Work smarter, not harder 😎
@@HannahRainbow88 thanks!!! I’ve only ever seen people on their knees scrubbing away. And that’s how I’ve done mine…all 22 miles of them. Or at least that’s what it feels like. Lol
100% relatable! I swear this is me cleaning. Getting distracted, breaking things, seeing something "extra" that needs to be done but saying I'm not gonna do it and the vocal stims😅
I started watching to try to give myself some motivation to start my spring cleaning but instead I couldn’t take my eyes off the video because I was laughing hysterically the entire time! I can’t tell you the last time someone made me laugh like that. That’s the one thing you have that nobody else does! You actually put me in a good mood! Thank you so much
LMAO when you pulled out your pot light and couldn't get it back in. That would be me. Loved watching your dog thinking you were playing when you were cleaning the sofas. And your little bird is cute. Thanks for the A, B, Cs of cleaning. I am in the process of doing the same thing right now. It does make the house feel better.
My favorite is that you take your bird out. So adorable seeing it on your head while you clean. I don’t understand people by birds and just keep them caged in. Especially since they were made to be free and fly. Thank you for this!!!! also, make sure you get your dryer maintained yearly. I clean my lint container after every dry. Even then a fire started due to the lint that accumulates inside the machine on the bottom. That’s what happened to me. It was so scary.😮
Oh my gosh I love this video. I love that you have the gross too. We had to buy a new dryer it was delivered last week Friday night I was catching up on laundry and some how a roll of toilet paper was in the bottom of the hamper and went the washer and the brand new dryer but I learned how to take apart the full lint area for future 😂😂😂
Cas, this was the most hilariously awesome cleaning video I've ever seen! You cleaning your appliances is exactly how I look! Gagging while cleaning things that stink to high heaven is me! Singing made up songs while you're cleaning... I think I need to start doing that! 🤣😂 Thank you so much for the cleaning tips and for the best laugh I've had in months! I totally needed both! You're the best!
Cas, I have found the perfect way to keep my water dispenser clean. Don't use it in the first place, use the Cold tap. You could also put a large jug of water in your fridge before you begin such cleaning tasks, and an hour before dinner. A couple of these hacks will ensure it remains pristine.
Omg! Did the nightgown boob thing into the kitchen. Thank goodness it was just the two of us!! Laughed so hard at myself...so glad I'm not alone! You crack me up...made my night!
The way you literally put your back into cleaning the outside of your Refrigerator was so funny and so true to real life! Thanks for that, it makes you real and honest, and so like the rest of us mere mortals. Cas. Simply the best, and so endearing.
I used to clean like this all the time. Then I moved back home an tried to share tips like you so now I’m lazy, till no one is looking. Don’t forget dirty pillow case inside out wipe fan blade
Thank you for your story about flashing the neighbor with your headlight so to speak while letting the dog out. I've never laughed so hard at that thought. You are a gem. When I clean this Spring I'll be thinking about how Cas cleans & actually enjoy myself. Lorraine
Cas you are so funny. I love to clean and do alot of what you cleaned on a weekly basis. It's amazing how quickly a home gets dirty. After I clean I don't want husband using the kitchen 😂
In a fraternal organization that I am a member of, we had one of these mounted on a wall of our meeting room, just inside the door, and it was used to signal, from outside the room, when a new member was ready to be admitted into the meeting room. We always referred to it as the "booby light," but I had never heard of anyone refer to it by that name outside of that environment until now. LOL Love your puppy helper!
Thank you for sharing all of your cleaning tips and tricks, but also all of your real life issues. You had me laughing with some things like the ice maker but your story and “song” at the end had me laughing so hard! Only you, Cas!
Cass! I love you! You are so da n funny! Your camera girl has the best job getting to film you. Gosh only knows the things she sees that you have to edit out!
every January i clean my frig and freezer, put everything in baskets, put outside the back door so keep frozen. defroze, and go thru everything and put back. I do pull out the frig and freezer and clean good behind and under.
A helpful (I think) thing I do...cause I hate cleaning as well.... Is put some newspaper on top of the fridge freezer and the top of your kitchen cupboards so they absorb the dust and grime. You still need to clean the area but it cuts down in the amount you have to clean. 😊
Cass, you always make me feel inspired to clean! I am a total procrastinator but feel inspired watching your videos! You make things feel so much easier to do and less like walking up a mountain to do them! TY for all your hilarious videos!
Cas, if you don’t mind me saying, I had a great laugh and when u were trying to clean the ice dispenser, it was like watching the I love Lucy show. Can you tell what cleaning products you use to clean everything.
I use q-tips soaked with hydrogen peroxide and clean the water dispenser. I also use paper towels soaked in peroxide and wipe out the ice chute. Back splashes of tea, sodas get stuck up in there. It's a weekly thing with me since I saw all the gross stuff growing.
Laughter is the best medicine. Ish Nish (thank you ❤️) Don't stop being yourself! I haven't watched your channel in a couple months just thank you for being you ❤️. Love and light 🕯️
I AM LAUGHING SO HARD I AM GUFFAWING! Thanks for that. Oh and you have totally motivated me to actually do my spring cleaning. You are totally kick ass!!!
This is the best and most hilarious cleaning video I have ever seen! Just what I needed for motivation. I love that you are so real, and not like some that make you feel as though they are perfect, which only makes you feel worse.Thank you!
LOL to move the fridge it helps to have some rubber sole shoes on for traction. Also I line the top of the fridge and cabinets with wax paper. Cuts down on the goo on top. A quick wipe and change the paper. Away you go.
Cas, do yourself a favour: put a small ticking clock in her crate, under her blanket. It sounds like a heartbeat, will help her to relax and sleep - and so you will get your rest, too!
This was an amazing list. At first it seemed so random, I didn’t think it would make a difference but it did. We are finally in spring here in Northern California. This was just what our home needed. Thanks. Please do a list for each season. Surprise us with Summer. Make Fall fabulous. Wow us with Winter!
You are the best! We have ALL had those, ahem, wardrobe malfunctions 😂 and I deeply appreciate you sharing yours and normalizing them!! It’s an embarrassing connection all us ladies have😅❤
Ok, every chain rest. I have ever worked in makes their wait staff take them apart and was them every eve at closing. TIPS APPRECIATED! Here in TN you work approx a couple hours rolling silverware, take the soda disp. apart, vaccuum, deep clean booths. etc. side work folks. AND ALL FOR 2.50 an hour!!!
I was already laughing before you got to the part of cleaning your kitchen with the bird on your head. Oh my! Then ending with the big reveal at the end. I'm still giggling!!
Cas you are hysterical 😂 I love cleaning with you, you make chores fun! ❤ P.S. love your little parakeet fascinator you were wearing earlier, very pretty 😊 so fancy.
Hi Cass! I have lived in my apartment for 14 years so it's looking pretty worn out. They just gave me new kitchen appliances that are beautiful & I'm so excited to try to keep them sparkling clean after all of these years of old ugly appliances. I'm so glad my new fridge doesn't have an ice machine! Thank you for sharing! ❤ (The bird on your head near the end was absolutely adorable!)
You are sooo funnyyyy😂 🤣🤣🤣!! I always enjoy your channel, but today’s cleaning of ice dispenser had me roaring with laughter! Thank you. You always brighten my day☀️
Well your neighbor was probably real thrilled at the show you put on early in the morning!! LOL That reminds me of the time you got locked out of your apartment while tossing the trash and had to walk naked through your neighbor's apt. and climb back through the balcony!! That was so funny!! Love the Flawless concept. That covers it about all!! I must get started!! Thanks for the motivation!!
You have a house, you have a zoo🦋, you have a magic atmosphere, thank you for your lifestyle and motivation. Love people who can live simple happy life❤️
So cute! My spring cleaning is never so entertaining... Dish washer tip, do not rinse your dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. Scrape the big food off and that's it. The soap needs the small food left on dishes to grab onto and do its job.
Thank you so much for the suggestions flawless 8 regarding spring cleaning. Looking at my house I was thinking of hiring help o was so overwhelmed. I have faith I can do it now...just over a few days vs one day. Plus thank you for the funny moments; I needed a good laugh. Life has been a struggle lately, and your videos are inspiring.
If you put soda crystals in your dishwasher and washing machine and run a hot wash it helps keep the stink down. I run regularly but always do it before doing spring cleaning to make it less gross. Adding distilled vinegar to your laundry helps stop limescale buildup and deodorises the machine and clothes. 😊
You're always a delight to watch, but today you cracked me up! 😂 Oh, and...maybe your neighbor didn't want to embarrass you by pointing out what was, well...out, but it would have been the gentlemanly thing for him to alert you! 🙀☺
Hey Cass, love the video. Quick tip on the cleaning of the trap in wash machine. Empty that little hose first! It will fill a little cup worth of stinky liquid without dripping all over the place. Then you unscrew the bigger filter. No mess. It’s amazing how there is so much gunk hiding in all appliance books and crannies! I will be joining the cleaning party soon!
I feel like you were extra candid this time and I was laughing along with you through the whole thing! Thank you for being the best cleaning body double ever! 😂😂😂
Need cleaning motivation, watch Cas. Need organization motivation, watch Cas. In all things, watch Cas.
Need a good laugh, watch Cas! The icemaker part nearly killed me 😂!

Literally every time I’m in a funk and my house is gross, I turn on her videos. It works!

Does Cas give anyone else "I love Lucy" vipes. She is so funny. She makes cleaning with Cas enjoyable.
Now that you mention it... 😂
Yes she does, thank you for relating
Yesssss!!!
Haha, yes!!!❤
'mon put ur back into it!
The most hilarious cleaning video on UA-cam ever!😂😂😂😂. Had tears literally rolling down my face. If anyone can make cleaning fun it’s Cass.👍👍👍👍

@@robynyoung711 I think so. I am 67 and can't do a big Spring clean anymore but I stick with my regular cleaning and it stays good.

LOL I thought you had a yellow bow in your hair. Your bird on your head is hilarious! Thank you for some realistic spring cleaning 👍
Thanks
Thank you!

Try rubber gap stopper for the space between the stove and counter. It is a game changer!

LMAO when you pulled out your pot light and couldn't get it back in. That would be me. Loved watching your dog thinking you were playing when you were cleaning the sofas. And your little bird is cute. Thanks for the A, B, Cs of cleaning. I am in the process of doing the same thing right now. It does make the house feel better.
My favorite is that you take your bird out. So adorable seeing it on your head while you clean. I don’t understand people by birds and just keep them caged in. Especially since they were made to be free and fly. Thank you for this!!!! also, make sure you get your dryer maintained yearly. I clean my lint container after every dry. Even then a fire started due to the lint that accumulates inside the machine on the bottom. That’s what happened to me. It was so scary.😮
Oh my gosh I love this video. I love that you have the gross too. We had to buy a new dryer it was delivered last week Friday night I was catching up on laundry and some how a roll of toilet paper was in the bottom of the hamper and went the washer and the brand new dryer but I learned how to take apart the full lint area for future 😂😂😂
I love how the painting above your fireplace is bright, sparkly and blue right behind your head. Cass, you look like an angel....lol.
Cas, this was the most hilariously awesome cleaning video I've ever seen! You cleaning your appliances is exactly how I look! Gagging while cleaning things that stink to high heaven is me! Singing made up songs while you're cleaning... I think I need to start doing that! 🤣😂 Thank you so much for the cleaning tips and for the best laugh I've had in months! I totally needed both! You're the best!
Cas, I have found the perfect way to keep my water dispenser clean. Don't use it in the first place, use the Cold tap. You could also put a large jug of water in your fridge before you begin such cleaning tasks, and an hour before dinner. A couple of these hacks will ensure it remains pristine.
Omg! Did the nightgown boob thing into the kitchen. Thank goodness it was just the two of us!! Laughed so hard at myself...so glad I'm not alone!
You crack me up...made my night!
The way you literally put your back into cleaning the outside of your Refrigerator was so funny and so true to real life! Thanks for that, it makes
you real and honest, and so like the rest of us mere mortals. Cas. Simply the best, and so endearing.
This was absolutely the best way to start my day, and exactly how I feel whenever I spring clean!
I used to clean like this all the time. Then I moved back home an tried to share tips like you so now I’m lazy, till no one is looking. Don’t forget dirty pillow case inside out wipe fan blade
Thank you for your story about flashing the neighbor with your headlight so to speak while letting the dog out. I've never laughed so hard at that thought. You are a gem. When I clean this Spring I'll be thinking about how Cas cleans & actually enjoy myself. Lorraine
Oh, my word you crack me up. I get cool tips AND entertainment?! What?! How awesome is that! LOL. Thanks, Cas! You rock!
Cas you are so funny. I love to clean and do alot of what you cleaned on a weekly basis. It's amazing how quickly a home gets dirty. After I clean I don't want husband using the kitchen 😂
In a fraternal organization that I am a member of, we had one of these mounted on a wall of our meeting room, just inside the door, and it was used to signal, from outside the room, when a new member was ready to be admitted into the meeting room. We always referred to it as the "booby light," but I had never heard of anyone refer to it by that name outside of that environment until now. LOL
Love your puppy helper!
Thank you for sharing all of your cleaning tips and tricks, but also all of your real life issues. You had me laughing with some things like the ice maker but your story and “song” at the end had me laughing so hard! Only you, Cas!
not only do you learn and get motivation--you also get a great comedian show--girl you crack me up
Cass! I love you! You are so da n funny! Your camera girl has the best job getting to film you. Gosh only knows the things she sees that you have to edit out!
every January i clean my frig and freezer, put everything in baskets, put outside the back door so keep frozen. defroze, and go thru everything and put back. I do pull out the frig and freezer and clean good behind and under.
I just love you! So inspiring! And so freaking funny! Wish I could be right there cleaning with you! God bless you!!!
A helpful (I think) thing I do...cause I hate cleaning as well.... Is put some newspaper on top of the fridge freezer and the top of your kitchen cupboards so they absorb the dust and grime. You still need to clean the area but it cuts down in the amount you have to clean. 😊
Cass, you always make me feel inspired to clean! I am a total procrastinator but feel inspired watching your videos! You make things feel so much easier to do and less like walking up a mountain to do them! TY for all your hilarious videos!
I ALWAYS STAY TO THE END! Your stories are THE BEST.
Cas, if you don’t mind me saying, I had a great laugh and when u were trying to clean the ice dispenser, it was like watching the I love Lucy show. Can you tell what cleaning products you use to clean everything.
True, Lucy episode for sure. The whole time I’m saying pull out the ice bucket.
I use q-tips soaked with hydrogen peroxide and clean the water dispenser. I also use paper towels soaked in peroxide and wipe out the ice chute. Back splashes of tea, sodas get stuck up in there. It's a weekly thing with me since I saw all the gross stuff growing.
Laughter is the best medicine. Ish Nish (thank you ❤️) Don't stop being yourself! I haven't watched your channel in a couple months just thank you for being you ❤️. Love and light 🕯️
I AM LAUGHING SO HARD I AM GUFFAWING! Thanks for that. Oh and you have totally motivated me to actually do my spring cleaning. You are totally kick ass!!!
This is the best and most hilarious cleaning video I have ever seen! Just what I needed for motivation. I love that you are so real, and not like some that make you feel as though they are perfect, which only makes you feel worse.Thank you!
Push from the bottom, (fridge) it will move easier, I do need to do my oven... reminded now :)
everything about this video was PERFECT. So many glorious moments, Cas... wow. the singing, the fridge pushing, the story in the end... everything 💕
LOL to move the fridge it helps to have some rubber sole shoes on for traction. Also I line the top of the fridge and cabinets with wax paper. Cuts down on the goo on top. A quick wipe and change the paper. Away you go.
Cass you made my day. You and the fridge was a hoot. Thank you for all the tips
That is my favorite painting. The one on her mantle. I love seeing every time she puts it out.
💕 I love you, Cass!😂 Thank you for making me laugh. I needed that this morning. Great tips on the dishwasher and washing machine. 💕
The musical accompaniment absolutely makes this video. Keep on singing!! Clutterbug: The Musical. Coming to theatres near you
You are SO right about the light fixtures! When they are clean, the room looks better.
Cas, do yourself a favour: put a small ticking clock in her crate, under her blanket. It sounds like a heartbeat, will help her to relax and sleep - and so you will get your rest, too!
This was an amazing list. At first it seemed so random, I didn’t think it would make a difference but it did.
We are finally in spring here in Northern California. This was just what our home needed. Thanks.
Please do a list for each season. Surprise us with Summer. Make Fall fabulous. Wow us with Winter!
I love how she keeps everything so real. I’m afraid to look in the ice maker now.
You are the best!
We have ALL had those, ahem, wardrobe malfunctions 😂
and I deeply appreciate you sharing yours and normalizing them!! It’s an embarrassing connection all us ladies have😅❤
Ok, every chain rest. I have ever worked in makes their wait staff take them apart and was them every eve at closing. TIPS APPRECIATED! Here in TN you work approx a couple hours rolling silverware, take the soda disp. apart, vaccuum, deep clean booths. etc. side work folks. AND ALL FOR 2.50 an hour!!!
Love, love, love the singing while cleaning!🎉
I was already laughing before you got to the part of cleaning your kitchen with the bird on your head. Oh my! Then ending with the big reveal at the end. I'm still giggling!!
Cas you are hysterical 😂 I love cleaning with you, you make chores fun! ❤ P.S. love your little parakeet fascinator you were wearing earlier, very pretty 😊 so fancy.
Hi Cass! I have lived in my apartment for 14 years so it's looking pretty worn out. They just gave me new kitchen appliances that are beautiful & I'm so excited to try to keep them sparkling clean after all of these years of old ugly appliances. I'm so glad my new fridge doesn't have an ice machine! Thank you for sharing! ❤ (The bird on your head near the end was absolutely adorable!)
You are sooo funnyyyy😂 🤣🤣🤣!! I always enjoy your channel, but today’s cleaning of ice dispenser had me roaring with laughter! Thank you. You always brighten my day☀️
Always a laugh watching you clean! 😂
I haven't laughed so hard in a long time!! I was crying tears laughing and my stomach hurt by the end of the kitchen cleaning session!! Thank you!!!
Well your neighbor was probably real thrilled at the show you put on early in the morning!! LOL That reminds me of the time you got locked out of your apartment while tossing the trash and had to walk naked through your neighbor's apt. and climb back through the balcony!! That was so funny!! Love the Flawless concept. That covers it about all!! I must get started!! Thanks for the motivation!!
You have a house, you have a zoo🦋, you have a magic atmosphere, thank you for your lifestyle and motivation. Love people who can live simple happy life❤️
So cute! My spring cleaning is never so entertaining... Dish washer tip, do not rinse your dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. Scrape the big food off and that's it. The soap needs the small food left on dishes to grab onto and do its job.
Thank you so much for the suggestions flawless 8 regarding spring cleaning. Looking at my house I was thinking of hiring help o was so overwhelmed. I have faith I can do it now...just over a few days vs one day. Plus thank you for the funny moments; I needed a good laugh. Life has been a struggle lately, and your videos are inspiring.
I'm sorry to hear you are struggling. Hugs
If you put soda crystals in your dishwasher and washing machine and run a hot wash it helps keep the stink down. I run regularly but always do it before doing spring cleaning to make it less gross. Adding distilled vinegar to your laundry helps stop limescale buildup and deodorises the machine and clothes. 😊
You're always a delight to watch, but today you cracked me up! 😂 Oh, and...maybe your neighbor didn't want to embarrass you by pointing out what was, well...out, but it would have been the gentlemanly thing for him to alert you! 🙀☺
This was the best cleaning video I've ever seen. Best commentary ever and I enjoyed your spring cleaning singing lol. You're so relatable.
Glad you think so!
A solid and realistic cleaning video. Your “dance” with the refrigerator made my day! : ) You won, Cas!
Hey Cass, love the video. Quick tip on the cleaning of the trap in wash machine. Empty that little hose first! It will fill a little cup worth of stinky liquid without dripping all over the place. Then you unscrew the bigger filter. No mess. It’s amazing how there is so much gunk hiding in all appliance books and crannies! I will be joining the cleaning party soon!
Thanks for the info!
My only complaint is that your videos aren't longer. Lol I love your motivation and story telling!
I feel like you were extra candid this time and I was laughing along with you through the whole thing! Thank you for being the best cleaning body double ever! 😂😂😂
