Thank you so much for being here! Each month I like to spend a few days resetting my home. This could be decluttering, organizing, restocking, or all of the above! I notice my home runs more smoothly if I spend a little bit of time each month focusing on these tasks. I would love to get all of this done in one day, but that isn't a realistic timeline for most of us. So chipping away at these tasks over a few days is what allows me to actually get them done. I hope you have a great day.

I finally made the leap! Thanks for the link.
Your garden is really flourishing.
It’s always amazing to me how we can keep finding things to declutter! Levi is so cute!
Motivating video-thanks! I laughed so hard at your "flight attendant skills". 🤣🤣🤣
Haha!
I like to change my sheets right then too, nothing worse than being tired at night and realizing your bed isn't made. After many years of trying to keep a small, over crowded linen closet neat I took the linens out and pared way down. Every bed has an soft storage bin underneath with a set of sheets and one blanket. Every bathroom cabinet has four towels and the tablecloths are on hangers in my laundry and now I actually use them as they aren't wrinkled.
There are good ideas for those of us with limited storage space. Thanks!
Great ideas!
busy moms shouldn't beat themselves up for not having enough time :) I heard someone recently say we do not in fact all have the same 24 hours in a day , for example , someone with a chef , nanny , fitness trainer etc....... does not in fact have the same use of those 24 hours as a busy mom who is doing all the tasks herself ! it was an eye opener for me . we all have 24 hours in a day but how we get to allocate those hours varies greatly ! you're doing a great job .
Wow Thank you for sharing that! It is very true.
It is amazing how much decluttering can be accomplished in little time, when we have the right mindset of using the time we have.
Thanks for reminder
Absolutely!!
Smaller boxes are easier to lift. Colourful dresses look great!
It never ceases to amaze me that you find something to organize at your house. I like the bins and with labels, makes it easier to access.
Yes you could be a hostess with the mostess. Love the colours in that painting on the left of the cupboards too 💖
Thank you! I hope you are doing well. =)
Hi Shannon, nice that you and your family were able to go on a vacation. You mentioned your excess of zucinni - you could make zucinni bread and freeze them. It's deliscious and very quick and easy to make. Just a suggestion.
Every single day I'moff work, I wonder why I don't feel energized to do what I need to do at home. I was always one to get up early and get things done. I'm now a procrastinator and very slow to get things done.
I so relate to you. Love that you show life just as it is 🙏
I love how you are always refining the space in your home.
Dresses are my uniform all year long. I add a sweater or leggings if the weather gets cold.
Love your blue dress❤
Wow the garden looks great. Enjoy the fresh fruit and veg
Zinnias make great cut flowers that last for 2 weeks and are drought tolerant.
The black storage box fitting in the closet reminded me of the kitchen trash bin. 😂 It is very exciting when everything fits in place. 😁
Yes! It reminded me of that too when I watched the video back LOL. I was thinking yay finally a place for this box =)
I switch out my throw blankets too. Love to change up the look at least once every few months.
Me to! I also switch out throw pillows.
For the cards, I saw a hack, to keep a lot of cards from the same event or theme, bundle them up into a little book, one inside the other, and stitch them together with a piece of string. Then they can be pulled out and looked at like a memory book.
I know that feeling that happens when you come back from a trip. After going to the lake, I'm from Minnesota, I have what I call "Lake let down". It takes a couple days to get back into a normal routine.
I am so happy to hear I am not the only one! It's hard to jump right into that normal routine LOL.
Levi is getting so big. He is a cutie. We got back from vacation too. it has taken me 4 days to put everything back in order. I love your summer dresses. That is what I am wearing too. So cool and comfortable.
Going on vacation is a ton of work! There’s all the prep for going and then all the putting away when you get back. And if you’ve been gone long enough the house is all dusty and needs to be cleaned when you return.
I so agree with this! Especially for the main organizer (that would be me) it's more work than just staying home LOL.
Love seeing someone just fold a fitted sheet! Everyone seems to have so much trouble with it!
It's pretty easy once my mom taught me the corner trick =)
I think my older sister taught me!@@shannontorrens1
Levi has grown so fast. What a cutie. I have gone through my sentimental stuff so many times. I always get rid of something. Sometimes very little, other times more. I started to work on my photos and stopped. I seriously have to be in the right mood. I have 5 siblings and quite a few niece's/nephew's so going through them takes forever and to ask who wants what, etc. It's a long work in progress. Sigh.
I also need to be in the right mood to go through photos because I don't want to feel rushed. It's great you have been able to go through everything over and over I feel that is when I am able to let more go. I hope you are doing well. =)
I think that’s a great idea for your memories up in that closet
Happy Sunday Shannon! It's so much easier to keep on top of things in a minimal home. Thanks for being one of my inspirations! Hi to Kathy and the family ☺️❤️
Thank you for being here! Hello from my mom too =)
@@shannontorrens1 ☺️☺️☺️
Oh my goodness! Levi is adorable!
Im very late watching your video. My whole life changed August 1,
Im so glad you had a nice vacation, I to have gone to wearing dresses more they are just so comfortabel. I enjoyed you sharing it was very helpful for me thank you. God bless you and your family.🦋🌻🤗
I truly love watching your videos. Very inspirational. I’m off to declutter and organize my garage! Flower tip: remove the lower leaves on each stem before putting them in the vase. The water will stay fresher longer. 🌻🌻🌻
Yes! No foliage beneath the water line! 👍
I don’t have a green thumb but I can keep Pothos alive. Do you mind sharing your indoor plants and how their maintenance has been for you? Thanks.
Shannon, you are inspirational to all of us following you. So many great ideas. I did three more bottom kitchen cupboards and have two large boxes to donate again. Thank you for keeping us going. 💕💕💕
That is awesome!
Thanks for info on dresses, I love coming home from work and putting on a comfortable dress and nice to add another choice!
I hope you had a great vacation!!! I was wondering if you are going to be doing the Q&A with your mom that you mentioned. I think it would be awesome to have the two of you doing it together.
Levi is becoming a big boy now 😮❤
You harvested A LOT of veggies 😯 from your garden 😊
I’m always inspired to declutter because of all your videos Shannon ❤
Have a good weekend Shannon ❤
Thank you! I am so happy to have you here and I hope you are having a nice weekend.
Great video! I watched this and then afterwards I got up and went straight to my closet to do a reset for the week!
Your garden looks great, a functioning garden-keeping it real. The garden we planted which we enjoyed for years was a pollinator garden. The life it attracts is fun to watch and if planted thoughtfully comes back year after year with little maintainence and replanting.
Love your declutter videos. I decluttered and organised our storage area in our laundry room. Theres so much free space and yeah I agree with others.. its amazing that we still find things to declutter. I have been binge watching all your videos for inspiration. Keep up the great work! 👍💜
Thank you so much! I hope you are having a great week.
Love learning new things about you. Congratulations on your beautiful daughter’s up coming wedding!
Will Grant eat zucchini bread? There are some good vegan recipes out there similar to banana bread. I love zucchini and could eat it sauteed nightly or in a veggie quiche. As a child though, we always had a big garden yield of it and one year, my mom was desperate to use it up and came up with zucchini cookies which were not exactly loved, hahaha
So happy to get a good slaw recipe, it's Soo good, thank you :) My family teases me about how much I love cole slaw and get excited to order it as a side in restaurants but sadly, it's not always good.
What is the name of the red 🌹 flower perennial that you trimmed? Soooo pretty.
Returning from vacay mixed emotions are a real thing but it does give fresh ideas brought on by time away.
I am getting the LR tidied up to put down our new rug from rugsusa. It has pretty orange tones to match the new 🍊 watercolor.
Happy Wednesday!!
I should try zucchini bread, I haven't made that in a really long time. I am literally the only one who eats the coleslaw here so I guess I am making it for myself lol. I can't remember the name of that flower I will have to ask my mom. Rugsusa is so good! I always find good deals there on rugs. =)
@shannontorrens1 :) Ty! Guess we'll just enjoy our slaw ourselves lol
So many good tips you've given & I'm grateful. Rug is nice quality, & I also got a great deal too.
How do I find the link for the dresses? You and your mom are great. It always reduces my stress when I watch you!
Thank you! I have the link in the description box of this video. =)
Thanks! I finally found the description box LOL
Your so inspiring thank you.
Hope you had a wonderful holiday. You look fabulous & Levi is such a cutie 🥰 I loved how you managed to reset your home. I also change linens around to give the home a different look & feel. Your dresses 👗 are lovely on you. Have a great week ahead & enjoy your flowers 🌺 & veggies 🥕 🥬🥗❤
Thank you so much!! I hope you are having a great summer Sharon =)
Hey Shannon, thanks for taking us along as you did a home reset! I have been wearing dresses and skirts more often recently and I'm really loving them too! Especially for the hot Texas days! Thanks for sharing!💗
Hi Joy, lately I am really loving dresses! Like you said with summer weather it helps to stay much cooler. =)
Between both of your videos, I'm super pumped to do a whole house declutter this week. I've decluttered many times before so it won't be an overwhelming task but I already have a bunch of stuff in mind to donate to a yard sale fundraiser benefitting a local animal rescue.
Yes, it seems there is always something to go through. We finally worked on our garage and hobby room, not perfect, not completely done, but better, and better is good. Your little one is so very cute. We saw our little grand twins last night. We sure enjoy them; it goes by fast.
It sure does go fast! I completely agree better is still progress =) Yay!
Another great video watching u get organized. Thank u! :)
I so enjoy your videos - the info and inspiration, and your calm, peaceful demeanor is so pleasant. :) And the flight attendant note - heehee!!
Thank you so much!
I try to clean before I head out of town. The only things I want to worry about when returning are unpacking and laundry. Get photo boxes for your photos. Huge space savers. I use a backpack... Much easier to carry my electronics when traveling.
I do the same! Clean the house, do all the laundry, pay all the bills, change all the bedding. Nothing to do when you get home, except to unpack, and, of course, more laundry!😅
I love these ideas! I wish I had the time but I was up till midnight the night before working LOL, so everything had to wait till I got back. =)
Yes I got a backpack that has a laptop section, its so much easier and better on my back.
Another great video! Thank you for providing the link for the dresses. 👍
I have been decluttering and doing some fresh painting in our home this summer and .....I am truly enjoying living with less! Daily chores seem less stressful! Your home is so serene and I love your channel! ~ Belinda
Thank you! That is awesome you are able to do some decluttering and painting, I bet it feels great =)
Good morning, Shannon! I have planned a home edit today. Just going room to room to see what I can declutter! Your inspiration is always a help to me🎉
very helpful
My husband & I eat a whole food plant-based diet. I plan ahead the meals I'm going to bring or make. A full-size refrigerator & at least a microwave needs to be in our room. There's a lot of food to take along, but we can't rely on restaurant food having vegan options.
We are the same! We only rent places with a kitchen because of the way we eat. Also it saves us a lot of money by not eating out.
Happy Sunday , great video I love that idea of a flower garden to cut for your home . I don’t have that so what I do I buy fresh flowers for my table it makes me happy 😀. I do wish I had a flower garden to cut. Have a great week . ❤
Great video! I so agreed with your green bin comment. My goal is to fill the bin as many weeks as I can. The “full container” tells me when I am done gardening for the week 😊
Hi Susan, I love that! It gives us a reason to get out there and prune.
SHANNON. PAINT something fun over your washer. You deserve some fun when you do LAUNDRY. especially since you have to go to the garage. Even some CONTACT PAPER would be fun and easy . love your videos!❤
I know that washer area is such an eyesore! Every time I walk in there I think this area is next on my project list LOL.
Could paint that small area, to the left of the cabinets and put up a couple of shelves.
Yes! This is a great idea! We recently painted our laundry room a nice bright white and then I relocated a piece of artwork to the wall behind the washer and dryer and it is amazing what a difference it has made for me on laundry day!
We make zucchini bread which is delicious. If you want the recipe I can message it to you.🥰
That would be great! I love trying new recipes =)
Hi! What do you use under your tablecloth and does it help stop the tablecloth from sliding around? Thanks!
Hello, Yes it does help the tablecloth from sliding a little but mostly it protects it. A commenter years ago suggested a tablecloth protector and I love it. When something spills it doesn't get on the table at all and if we want to do a project we just pull back the top cloth and my kids can paint or do anything messy. =)
@@shannontorrens1 thank you!
LOVE and watch your vlogs weekly! Labels work better if they face the opening so you can see what is where. Also please, please, please remove the store stickers. It takes only a second and most come off cleanly with newer glues. The visual clutter that the stickers make, clog the flow of creative juices and make your mind see too much. It is an easy way to make things look cleaner and well kept. Do LOVE you and hope you don't take this the wrong way. My family calls me the sticker police, 👮so I handed out a ticket to you. LOLOL😂
Haha the sticker police I love that name. Most of the time I try to take them off, but I get lazy if it's an area where I don't see it very often.
Totally agree about stickers!
The art class teacher may want them if mom doesnt
❤
😊
Little Levi is soooo cute. I wish they stayed like that. 👣
I know! It's going too fast.
❤👍
Hi there sweetie pie hope you are well I love your videos love from Eugenie your friend xxx 🏡🌼🦋🌻
Thank you I hope you are having a good start to the week. =)
👏👏👏👍💞
So much stuff in this closet, you need to declutter😂😂😂
It's not clutter though lol. I use all these items. We have hobbies and I run a full time business out of this room =)
Please TEAR THE LABELS OFF YOUR PILLOWS.
