I loved your comment “it doesn’t need to be a chore, being thankful for having a home” not exactly what you said but such a good reminder how fortunate we are. Beautiful video as always. A great start to my Sunday. 💜
Tina Lemna thanks Tina!
Have a great week x
Why is it that even the cobwebs look lovely? :) thank you for letting us into your home
Tina Lemna same. I loved it. Gave a new perspective.
Tina Lemna yes, that sentence struck me too 😍
I so agree. I am especially thankful for the home my children and I have just moved into in a bit of a rush just before Christmas. Living in a rented home for 11 years and suddenly being uprooted due to the quick sale of the house brought me to a new appreciation for finding a pace to call home. Watching your videos has helped me to better settle where I am. Your ideas help me to find new ways to feel satisfied in the space I now occupy and hope will truly become a home.
most soothing voice and accent in the world
Ikr!!! She’s got such a motherly, soft tone to her voice.
So funny to me how you say winter is nearly over and spring is on the way.. I live in upstate n.y. and know that we most likely have 3 more months of winter. We had lots of snow yesterday and more coming today. Watching you do spring cleaning helps me look forward 😊
Lori Williams those were my thoughts. We are in Ontario and got a foot of snow last night. More coming today as well.
I know I was thinking the same thing. I live in NJ and it's so cold. I look forward to spring January 1st. Lol
Boston here :)
I was thinking the same thing...in northern Alberta, Canada here and We’ll probably still have snow for 4 more months 😂🤷🏻♀️
Yep, another snowstorm today in Halifax over the one we had on Thursday. Winter has barely started in the Great White North.
I just love your videos. Im so blessed. My sons are building me a beautiful small ( 500 sq ft) stone castle! Its almost ready for the first floor roof. My daughter in law lovingly cleans my house thoroughly once a week or more if needed. ( im in a wheelchair )
Aren't daughter's in law just a blessing. Mine is here taking care of me after surgery.
wow that is wonderful to hear. You are blessed indeed. The Queen will be in her castle soon :-)
That's amazing!💕
Valuing the simple things, is valuing the existence of life as it is. 🌻
It's so lovely how you put the idea of cleaning not as a chore, but as giving your home TLC and being grateful that you have it! In the past I used to hate the day of cleaning, but thankfully now I'm adopting a new way of looking at it with love and good feelings, so your video was so much in tune with my new philosophy! Thank you!
I loved this part, too.💕 It truly resonated with me.🌟
As she opens a window....sooo jealous. Having a raging snow storm here at the moment . (And I'll admit that I googled "does Ireland get snow?" lol)
We do, very very rarely, and even more rarely still is it so bad we can't go outside. We had one really bad winter maybe 3 years ago and the country ground to a halt for about a week
I thought the same thing when I saw her door open and heard the birds. I thought for a second that maybe spring is sooner than I thought but then I remembered we in Boston do not really have a spring so much. I always get excited but it is usually at least cold and rainy until April. Still I look forward. :)
Where is there Spring at the end of January ? I might need to move .....
mdoe37 we don’t really get snow. Once every 10 years or so.
Spring in Ireland begins around February usually, it's when you start to see snowdrops and daffodils and crocuses coming into flower. It rains a LOT during spring but it's earlier than in most places in the US and Canada I'd say
House tour! We need a house tour. Calming video as always.
I’ve had a small touch of spring cleaning fever for a few days now and this video just fed that immensely!
It’s as if you described my every thought & feeling, except with a beautiful, soothing Irish lilt!
April Dee haha here’s to loads of cleaning fever!
You are the only person I know who can make cleaning seem like a bonus instead of a chore. After watching your videos I always see my own modest home in a different light.
GradKat awh lovely to say. Thank you.
Thank you very much for your lovely videos. This primal urge to spring clean is such a gift. I like to step back centuries and imagine how our generational great-grandmothers must have enjoyed applying TLC to their rustic homes - just as much as we do in the 21st century. Here in Michigan we still have at least two months of winter. But displaying a little pride of ownership by cleaning and organizing now, helps overcome this gloomy season. On the other hand, just yesterday Bella (older Yellow Lab, we're about the same age) and I both braved a winter storm by walking to Lake Huron's shoreline to view this Great Lake in a majestic uproar. Once back home, six inches of snow in the driveway needed to be shoveled. These challenging outdoor activities were wonderfully invigorating, and helped clean out any emotional cobwebs.
This inspired me to clean my new home and be grateful that I’m able too rather than seeing it as a chore ❤️
It's true. If we are able to we should be grateful. I was very ill for a long time. Improving now and am able to do these things.
Best wishes for your continued recovery ❤️
@@OneTraveller Thank you so much. I appreciate that
I am currently disabled and can't do these things but I look forward to healing and then being grateful to clean my own home too.
@@katherinejohnson2749 I will pray that day comes soon for you.
Blessed and thankfull for having a roof over our head....thats so,so true
Thank you Niamh. Must admit I have never seen a video about housework look so pleasant and appealing. You did it again.
Thanks Cindy... I try and make every seemingly mundane activity joyful if I can.
Yay thanks for this idea for masking the vinegar smell! And pine is one of my favorites ❤
I thought my home was clean, but you're a rockstar! I've never heard of a floor steamer before, so I was like 😯 ... Beautiful video, as always ♡
Thank you for making chore be so peaceful and fun. I cannot clean my home anymore because disability and I live vicariously thru you and everyone here. Is anyone here wanting a pen pal from Vermont?
Warm hugs!
Ah thanks Mona for your support!
I thought I was the only one who thought of January as the unofficial start of spring! I always spring clean in January and lighten things up around the house. I obviously still use my fireplace and candles for warmth but I like having my plants around and fresh flowers such as white tulips as a reminder that spring is around the corner. I also let as much sunshine into the house as possible. I don’t know why but I’m usually already in spring mode when January rolls around. 🤗🌿🌷
You have such a soothing effect! I love it.
"Winter is nearly over." *cries in Canadian* Winter's only just gotten started.
Thank you for your lovely cozy videos. They always make me feel warm and fuzzy~
"The whole feeling of the house will change".. that is why i adore cleaning it.
Unlike my sisters .. i enjoy the whole day of cleaning 💖💖
I'm not realize that doing house chores could be this calm.. bravo..
Good morning Fairyland! Gratitude is the key. In all situations be grateful. There is always a life lesson to learn. Spring isn't close for me yet, we had snow here this last week, something I hadn't seen in quite a few years so I was grateful for it. I think I may get a jump on some winter cleaning and organizing. Enjoyable video as akways😊
Oh Niamh, you're so lucky to be able to open the windows wide at this time, and to be able to think that spring is just around the corner. I envy you both abilities. We've still got at least another 8 weeks of winter, and it's SO cold the best I can do is get the windows open a crack for a few minutes. But it was a breath of fresh air to see you be able to do that. You've got such a great, livable, climate. Thanks for posting.
I know this is irrelevant to the video topic, but I find your videos really calming in a way that it pulls me back to remember what's around me. The reality that i'm simply alive with things I can do for myself, my family, and other people.
I live in a city with a 6 days a week job, sometimes i feel like Im racing against time itself, no rest, no life, paycheck to paycheck. But I see your video notifications and it just....
Anyway.
So thank you for showing me how to calm down once in a while.
Steam mops are the best. I was lucky enough to find one second hand in perfect condition.
You have such a sweet cottage and I love to listen to your voice. Thanks for the inspiration. Greetings from Texas.
Greetings to you in Texas!
Chased the cobwebs last Monday, remembering of your previous video about it ; it took me less than a quarter of an hour and was so refreshing. Vacuumed under the big L-form sofa too, full of dust and lost toys and kids’ thingies. Began to think of cleaning the windows, maybe early February, when I usually think I cannot bear anymore of winter time and rain...
Thank you again for your so smoothing and inspiring YT and Instagram channels. Have a nice week.
Ive just been diagnosed with epilepsy and feeling VERY stressed because of it, plus all my assignments and uni lectures aren't helping. Watching your videos are so relaxing. Ive been watching one in the morning and one before bedtime. They make me realise life doesn't need to be complicated. I tae things slowly now. Thank. you! Love from Wales
I live in the united states..but i would love to live in ireland...i love your videos so much..everynight before i go to sleep i watch them to relax myself..and to remind myself to take things slowly..and enjoy every little thing we have..
Every Sunday Morning I wake up and I see your Video first thing in the Morning. It's my Sunday ritual.
isn't that wonderful to hear!
Self care for your house..... that is a great way to look at cleaning your house!
Wow, how is it that you can make even removing the cobwebs look like a lovely and soothing activity!?? Thank you for such a nice video! :)
Thank you for (gently) reminding us to think of cleaning as something to be grateful for because we are able to do it (I’m paraphrasing). The one time in my life I was really ill, *all* I wanted was to get back to normal, every-day life-nothing fancy, just the regular routine of the day. Thank you for reminding me. 🌷
Your videos are so therapeutic.
I am grateful for you. Sunday mornings with your newest video always starts me off so peacefully. Through the week, if I forget to be mindful, I remind myself of your wise Sunday insights and start over again. Thank you. Truly. 🙏
Ah that is really wonderful to hear that you have an easy way to ease the mind during your daily life...
You make the simplest things a joy to watch.
'hello...in the states we use Murphy's oil soap to make the dark wood..gleam..and it smells so spring fresh..a little bit goes along way..'thankyou for your spring video..'🌾🍃
No window opening here yet...snowstorm and it was -17C/0 F the other day...just the middle of winter for us. That’s why I like watching your videos, so soothing and I can almost smell the fresh spring air of Ireland. 😊
hehe keep warm my friend :-)
Your cinematography skills are like true ASMR-- without the awkward or violated feeling I get after watching most genres of ASMR.
ah ill tell my hubby that... he does the cinematography now...
I just did this very thing. Respecting one's home and space for sure.
I did my cleaning today. Thank you for making housework an instagram lifestyle choice. I cleaned everything with slow self appreciation, the whisper of your calming voice in my head. The understanding it's an act of self care, not an annoying chore Honestly where do l send the money?
So relaxing and peaceful.
I am burning encens every morning when i clean my bedroom, i like your way of life and your decor, you’re lucky to live in countryside. I am living in SAINT-GERMAIN-EN-LAYE near Paris, we have a large forest nearby but nothing compare to countryside, as an artist i dream of little cottage, fresh air and liberty ……… thank you for sharing your life, i am gonna follow you 🤗✨
Thank you for posting this. I am in tears. This is personal, but I'm going through some home renovations right now and it has been so overwhelmingly busy to paint, take wallpaper off the walls, have a stranger in my house everyday working on renovations, on top of everything else I have going on in my life. This weekend has been so stressful, my home is a mess, my kids have been wild and I have had such bad anxiety. This video really helps me to let it all go. Thank you xoxoxoxo
Sending you love and positive vibes... remember to breath. We all need a break sometime so be kind on yourself through all the upheaval.
hello from arizona once again. even cleaning with you is relaxing..! adding a bit of incense and music is a perfect touch.
It feels so good to have your space clean and decluttered!!
I love watching your videos, relaxing but practical. Like you I have started getting ready for spring. I'm Irish but living in England and already I'm starting to see spring blooms popping their head up in my garden. I always start spring cleaning this time of year with imbolc so close. I feel like my home begins to wake up after a winter hibernation when I start letting the fresh air flow and clearing the cobwebs 😊.
You taught the world how to be contented and grateful for what we have. You are one of a kind ❤️
I just got rid of the cobwebs yesterday. ☺️ After each holiday I remove the decorations from the mantle and elsewhere, dust well and redecorate again. Dust smells bad. You don’t realize it until you wipe it away with a damp microfiber cloth and everything glows again.
So envious that you can have windows open at the end of January! We have had a huge snowfall, and temperatures have been -10C in the day. Our winters are so long that Spring cleaning doesnt happen till at least April! You make it look like fun ❤️
Oh my goodness I’ve never needed an upload from you like I do right now, and you’re my favorite UA-camr so that’s saying something. Thank you for all the amazing energy and light you put into the world, it is treasured by so many. Wishing you all the best
Thank you Adriana for those heartfelt words.
I don't think I've ever found cleaning the house more relaxing. :-)
I don't know how or why you started these but sometimes it's the best part of my day. I'm so grateful to you! Thank you ever so much. I found this channel at the perfect time in my life!
Wonderful to hear! I started because I hadn't a job at the time and I had more free time! Thanks so much for your support!
We still have another eight weeks of snow and cold weather before any chance of opening up the window for an early spring here where I live, but I thoroughly enjoyed the reminder that it is indeed coming ♡ Thank you! ♡
Can’t remember ever cleaning the bottoms of my chairs! Learning something new each time. The birds are noisier in the morning, too.🙏
Beautiful video as always,I like your voice,and every detail in your house .And I am very proud that your washing machine is BEKO,a Turkish brand.A big hello from Bodrum,TURKEY.
So ready for spring 🦋💐
Hearing the birds sing makes my heart so happy! videos like these are so soothing and inspiring, I think I may do a little of early spring cleaning 🥰 have a blessed week 💕💕💕
you have a nice time cleaning... have a blessed week x
What a nice, cozy place! 🧡💙💗
Your way of cleaning is so peaceful!
Love your video’s
When I clean, I always think of how blessed I am to have health to be able to clean and do chores, I always think of those who are sick and can not do things for themselves, and who have to rely on others, and are not feeling well
Wonderful healthy thoughts to have...
Watching this video made my own new year's cleaning so much more relaxing. And then, it was time to vacuum...
There is so much work and so much quality put into your videos that is absolutely amazing but funny enough there’s something about you that if you just sat there and talked anything your voice is enough to listen to no matter how long the audio is..
Awh thanks!
Someone said ''the most soothing voice and accent in the world''and I couldn't agree more. Calming and peaceful as always dear🤗😘
Thank you ... you are very kind to say x
Thank you for caring about the wellbeing of others.
Thank you for caring to watch
Your video has changed my perspective on cleaning my house. I will give it some more TLC now. Thank you for your videos, as always!
As always, I just adore your voice and videos. So relaxing. With that being said, it's a bit too early to be thinking of Spring here in upstate NY. Winter just started for us Dec 21st, so not quite a month in; we have a ways to go yet. About 5 inches of snow fell yesterday with temps in the single digits fahrenheit but I LOVE it. Winter is so nice and cozy here. I loved how you opened your windows and you can hear the birds chirping, a definite sign of Spring for you. Our bird feeders are full and out, and we get the occasional visitor but not nearly as much as the warmer months. Have a wonderful day!
Hey Niamh, I'm just finish the cleaning my home. I took a rest and what a surprise you are making the same. Those words give us confidence and inspiration. Lots of love from Quito Ecuador
A great perspective! It is so good, soothing & peaceful to be a "homekeeper". I, too, am grateful to clean!
That was cute how you talked about saying goodbye to all the cobwebs and little houses the spiders have left behind.
How can someone make a CLEANING video that brings tears to my eyes?!! :)
Great reminder to be grateful for every thing we have. You cleaned your home with love. I am sure it will bless you with the same. Blessings to you from Florida, USA.
blessings to you too my friend x
When you say “Winter is over and spring is on the way”, I live in South Texas so our springs are kinda short, then comes the long hot summers we all dislike here. So spring for us is a prelude to summer heat and dryness. But I do like spring flowers and air and greenness...... just wish we had more of it.
It is so nice to have someone else express the love and romantic pleasures in caring details of the home like I have over the years
I seriously watch your videos before I sleep. Your voice is soothing and the video lighting relaxes my eyes. And, your tips are all amazing.
What a beautifully reflective video, viewing what we have to care for with gratitude rather than a chore. ♡♡♡
Thankyou. I love cleaning and making my home feel like it is loved. We are so lucky to have a safe, warm place to call home xx
So true Jacqui
Charming video. Bless you.
Thanks
Sharing your thoughts with us is always helpful. Today’s video brings gentle reminders to lose any negativity the longer dark days of deep winter may creep in. Clearing cobwebs, that I am now searching for, will force me to clear any cobwebs in my mind.
So true... clearing cobwebs all around...
I have showered my green plants today. And next weekend they will get some new soil and bigger pots. The light is slowly returning here in Sweden and with the light comes new life.
Yes, Imbolc is coming.🌱...time to welcome the new season with a nice, fresh and clean environment.
Thanks for sharing 🏡
I was a bit 'off' this morning and sat at my loom to weave while listening to something soothing on youtube - this video showed-up in my Home page and I am so glad I selected it. I cannot believe how this video calmed me, inspired and lifted my spirits. I love these sort of videos you have created. Thank you so much and please do create more if you can.
I work as a private domestic cleaner and I love it. There's something so satisfying about cleansing away dirt and mess, and leaving houses sparkling. I use chemical free cleaning products for the most part. I'd like to use cloths to minimize waste but I do use paper towels a lot to avoid any cross contamination (especially toilets), and I find they create less streaks on glass and mirrors. I feel guilt about the environmental impact but I'm yet to think of a solution that uses less waste and also prevents contamination risks.
Lovely video. YOU and your soothing voice are the perfect way to start a Sunday morning after meditation.
A foot of snow fell over night. So today is the perfect opportunity to love on our home. But first...a whole lot of shovelling! Have a beautiful day💗
Just lovely!
You videos are always sooo relaxing and peaceful! Thank you :)
I love it when the sun shines on the cobwebs, but often times January and February are the coldest winter months so for me spring hasn't started. Best wishes from Brittany France.
I couldn't help but burst out laughing when I heard you say it's nearly spring! Where I live (Quebec), spring doesn't come until some time in April! We still have quite a bit of hibernating to do :-)
I love to burn some incense while I clean too, and I totally agree that caring for your home is like self-care.
I've been struggling with depression for years now so my room is filthy! it's covered in clothes and food packets and dust, it's gross! but slowly I feel myself get better and, as hard as it is, my room is getting cleaner and cleaner. it's nowhere near done but with this type of motivation my room will be clean! I might even be able to have girls around soon lol xoxo thank you
I get to live vicariously through you and other UA-camrs who live where it's warmer. Here in Northern Illinois it's too cold to open the windows for a couple more months at least. But you still inspired me to do some cleaning.
I love how your videos are sometimes just regular things that you’d do in the day but they are so beautifully put together and relaxing . The insight of gratitude of life’s simplicity is refreshing 👼💕
Love these peaceful winter videos, so calming... Have a wonderful week as well 🌱💚
I put orange essential oil in my steamer and vacuum it really permeates the whole house ❤️
ohh I love this smell!
Simply magical❤️
You're so poetic, this video almost made me emotional. I love the coming of spring and the spirit that come with it.
You've inspired me to reframe my thinking about cleaning. It really is just tending and caring for your home! Thank you :)
All my days worries flew away after hearing and seeing the video
Your videos are genuinely lovely. I look forward to them every Sunday. I wish you all a wonderful week ahead. ❤️
So inspirational; I've also been doing a little bit of cleaning to refresh my home; just a few basics and wiping down the kitchen window sills and cleaning the windows. Just lets more light in on a beautiful sunny day that we've been so short of lately. Even the birds have started to sing more joyfully today. 💕
