Today I'll share 15 1-minute habits for an organized and clutter free home (most of the time). These are practical minimalist tips that have helped me to manage my home with a lot less effort.

I think making the bed is crucial but it’s more than discipline. Depending on the room the bed could be half of the visual space more or less.
So having it where a main item in the room is tidy makes a huge difference.
Ohh great point! I never thought about it that way.
- Make your bed.🛏️
- Clean up your floor.
- Wash dishes quickly.
- If it can be put away in one minute, do it!
- Find places for items in the entryway.
- Keep items in cabinets like kitchen items.
- Deal with your mail immediately.
- Use or Remove labels.🏷️
- Find a home for keys & phone.
- Manage carry items daily. Restock diaper bag/purse.
- Toss the trash in your car.
- Clear your nightstand/ dresser.
- Basket or Bin to go/ return things.
- Dress Up For The Day!!!😊
I love it! ❤️
Thank you! I hate dumb content creators who don't use timestamp/sections in their vid just to bait views.
She said 15 habits, you’ve got 14. One must be missing. ☺
@@rosehiver6262 Put away bathroom toiletries is missing.
I ultra appreciate this as such a long lead up before it even starts! Havent got time! Saves listening!
The best advice I have for a good sleep health, or sleep enviroment is to unmake the bed in the morning. To let it air out and dry up from the night. Then come back to it, at least 30 minutes later, and then make the bed. I just make the bed when I put away the clean laundry. Sleep is so important for you, so prioriticing good sleep habits, and having a good and clean sleep inviroment is so important.
I just recently retired and I have spent a couple of months being "lazy". Now I need to get a better routine and getting dressed each day will be great step for me. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Buying a label maker was a game changer for me!
Mine was a gift and I call it “the gift that keeps on giving” 😄
When I got custody of my grandson he was a toddler. I'm a nurse, at the time i worked nights, 3 on, 1 off, 3 on, 1 week off. I would be exhausted the week I worked. My mom and my aunt would watch him and tell me to just leave him and go home to bed but I couldn't bc he would never be home so I brought him home and would just nap on the couch while he played with his toys. His social worker came once a month and every time he came toys would be everywhere...lots of toys. I'd apologize and he would say I love seeing all the toys out, that neans he's playing and he's happy!! So mama's, dont sweat over the toys 😊
Wow, God bless your tremendous sacrifice! I worked nights as a nurse and it was pure misery. I can only imagine how hard that must have been for you. Thank you for sharing such an important reminder to embrace our current season in life instead of trying to rush past it.
Toys being played with is a very good thing! I view art and crafts supplies the same way for adults.
Wonderful message at the end. Thank you so much for sharing
A bed must be aired first.
Good point! Maybe I’ll get ready first, THEN make the bed. 😁
Yes, when I get up I pull down all the covers & let it air out while I do other things, then come back& make it after awhile.
I make the bed. After I shower and use the bathroom.
I always let my bed air for awhile then make it before I leave for work.
It’s fine. I’m my 40s and haven’t died yet from lack of airing my bed lol.
Thank you so much for this very helpful video! I can totally relate to it. If I were to make a suggestion it would be to slow it down just a little bit. I recognized it could just be me. You are giving such valuable information and it helps to absorb it. I mean no disrespect. Thanks so much. ❤️.
It really helps to know, thank you!
It’s tough figuring out analytics sometimes. Unfortunately I’ve already made a few videos, but I’ll calm it down a bit. ❤️
@@YesiIbarraFor me, the speed was perfect. I was never tempted to speed up the playback.
Oh my gosh! I love your bed! Do you mind sharing where you got it? Thanks!
@@AribelTamayo Aw, thanks! We made it actually, so unfortunately I can’t give a store as reference.
@@YesiIbarra it’s beautiful! Thanks for replying.
but where did you get that purse/bag? my purse just broke and I've been looking for a replacement. i love the brown leather look backpack deal you've got going on. Please share :)
Hey, I got mine from Etsy. I can’t find the same one sold anymore, but I added the link to a very similar one on the description. (Mine is medium size in case it helps). ❤️
Thank you for sharing, new subscriber🎉
I hope you enjoy what's to come! I have some more home related content in the works. 😊
Please share the paint you used for the jars is it food safe
I used a chalk paint. Most chalk paints and clear wax coats are nontoxic, but it requires a wipe clean. I did NOT paint the inside of the lid, so only the outside, which doesn't touch the food, is painted. I also only use them for dry items.
●Bathroom: If you have more than one bathroom, store a full set of bathroom cleaning supplies in each bathroom. That way you don't have to schlep them around, and everything you need is there for easy and fast touch ups if needed😊.
●Mail: Sort the mail as soon as you bring it in. Throw away all unneeded items. Place all the bills and important mail into a "To-Do" box. I covered a recycled card board box with fabric, and i keep it on my shelf. That way they are safe, together, and out of mind until you are ready to open and process them! Then when it is time to look at bills and other important mail they are all there and ready to process. I covered another box, I call the 'Done Box,' l also keep it on the shelf. When i pay a bill, I write the date, amt paid, confirmation numbers, etc. and any notes on it, then I put it in the 'Done Box' . All the paid bills are there in relative date order in case (as it happens) you need to refer to a previous month's bills. At the end of the year, pack the year's receipts and label with the year and store or file as needed.😊
Oh I love it! Those are some great ideas. Thanks for sharing! 😊
Always have my keys in my purse. I don’t understand having keys on a wall. I’d go out and lock myself out!
Oddly it’s been the opposite for me when I’ve tried the purse method. I’ve left my house without my purse (and wallet) more than I’d like to admit. 😆
I guess it’s worth clarifying that it’s easier when we follow our natural habits.
@@YesiIbarra. I’m having trouble with leaving my cell phone at home now that it’s usually next to me on the couch. When I didn’t use it as much it stayed in my purse!
Never in my life did I leave my bed unmade. I soon will be 76.
Congratulations
my bed is simple that i can just arrange 2 pillows...thats it😅
That’s ok! Nothing wrong with that if that’s what you like. 👍

It’s a different story when you have to clean up for a family of five.
You just gave me an idea to make this sort of video specifically for families. Because you’re right, it is different with kids. We are soon to be 5 ourselves and I wish I had given myself a little more grace in the beginning.
You talk too much...demo more, talk less. Much easier to watch. Edit
Thanks for letting me know your opinion. It’s helpful when considering different editing styles.
I have a "get ready for the day" bin and a "get ready for night bin" which get tucked away after using
Game changer for my bathroom
Love the idea of a to-go bin
Great video
Thanks!
Dress up for the day is one of my favorite advice ever! Even when one work for home getting dressed instead of wearing « whatever » change the mindset in such a positive way. It’s a way to say I love and respect me! And that sets the rhythm of the day
Always!❤
Yes! I work from home half the time, and I agree🙂
A place for everything and everything in its place.
Your house is so beautiful it is inspiring me to want to be much better at creating a beautiful clean space! Such a confidence booster I imagine too. I read once that clutter has an emotional component. I know that some people can’t think clearly amidst clutter. Conversely people that are depressed and just want to hide from life, speaking from experience, might feel exposed without the clutter.Idk it might be some laziness too. Anyway thank you for the motivation. Your house is beautiful :)
What’s the biggest problem area in your home?
🙋♀️ Mine is definitely the mudroom.
The kitchen!
The office or the pantry? Basically areas I keep closed off or don't go often. If I see it a lot, I work to keep it pretty. It can get undone, but I put it back in order faster than hidden areas.
🙋♀️Mine is the master bathroom. Hubby does not want me to tuck away his medications and hygiene products. Everything is contained, but out in the open. Gives me a little jolt of anxiety every day (I recognize I'm little off kilter, but we all have our little quirks).
@@YunuPolsen oh, I can relate to this! I'm always looking for better ways to corral items and make them look less busy. It's like toiletry and medicine packaging/branding is the worst, too! So busy and too many clashing bright colors for me. My quirks have definitely progressed as I've gotten older and learned what I like and don't like, ha!
The office! We have no attic and I have years of kids memorabilia there. Working on making boxes for each so they can take it home (all adults!).
not me ... Nasty work is done in the morning, breakfast is at noon, followed by a shower and hair style. I wear grubby clothes for housekeeping, home repairs and messy projects, then get into nice attire after my shower. Appointments and outings are always scheduled for after noon. Unlike a neighbor of mine, all my beautiful items will stay beautiful for 20 years or more. She always struggles to find something suitable for an outing because paint or bleach spatters have marred everything she owns. Work clothes are for work, and designer duds are worn when I want to be presentable in public.
Great point! I like to wear my husband’s shirts for the dirty work because I’m nice like that. 😆
For a regular day it’s different though. Thanks for adding some valuable context.
I never wear outside clothes at home, I always change. If I'm staying at home then change fully into home clothes, like sweatpants, but if I'll be going out soon then at least take off the external layer - the skirt/pants and blouse/shirt/sweater and put a robe on (I don't know how it's called in English but it's like a bathrobe, just not necessarily for after the bath only, just something you can put on while at home, it can be made from various fabrics, not necessarily the towel-type one; does it have a name in English?).
@@joane24. A duster? An apron? A coverall?
@@joane24 house coat, but pinafore, tunics and tabards also used. 😂
Great ideaa, thanks for sharing! Its so interesting, i had this lightbulb moment why dont i just wear my favorite clothing pieces to everyday living moving on. Just like you said, no need for a special occasion or the special occasion is today. :) I love how elevated it makes me feel.
Yay! 👏
It really makes a big difference!
Just found your channel and subscribed! Love the topics you cover and added more of your videos to watch later.
Welcome! I hope you enjoy what’s to come too. 😊
Once I decluttered, I found that returning an item to it's home became so much easier. No more shuffling items around to make room for one more thing. Aww, the joy of low resistance.
Yesi, I love your dresses. Where did you find them?
I have to work on your last tip. I often spend the day dressed like a ragamuffin. I need to change that.😊
You’re so right. Cleaning and organizing is much easier after decluttering.
And thanks! Most of mine are thrifted so I don’t have links, but the dress I’m wearing in this video should be linked in the description. You can also check my Amazon storefront for some of the others shown.
@@YesiIbarra Thank you so much ♥
Hello.
My name is
Serene Skylar RU.
This is the first time I saw your video.
It's really awesome.
There is an old saying that says we never stop learning,
And it's so true.
I am 63 going on 64 years old, and I'm still learning and loving it.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom and helpful tips.
I'm truly into the minimalism lifestyle,
As I learned less is more, and it really makes it easier to keep a clean & declutterd home look it's very best.
Love it.💞🤗👍
Hello Serene. What a lovely name! Just the name brings about peace.
I love that saying. In my years of geriatric nursing, I found most often people who continued to learn and stretch their brain seemed to live happier, longer lives. Most centenarian patients I had were very positive people who never stopped learning. ❤
@@YesiIbarra
Hello.
Thank you so much for your reply and your kind word's.
I really appreciate it.
O yes, I agree with you all the way,
& yes, I am a very optimistic [positive] person who is always seeing the very best in everyone & everything around me.🦋🐕
I really can't imagine life any other way.
Have a very blessed and beautiful day.🌷🤗
Love the idea of the to go bin. I am going to get one
It’s the only way I can make sure things actually leave the home when they’re supposed to.😆
It's very important to let your bed breathe and dry out in the morning, otherwise all that moisture increases your chance of bed bugs and generally makes your bed unhealthy. We lose A LOT of moisture every night. Then at lunchtime or later, you can make it look nice for the evening.
This was really a wonderful video. You made so many great points . You are a natural at this . Thank you !
@@theresabrown1272 Aww yay! I’m glad it was helpful. 😊
I'm much older now, but this is very similar to how I did my life. I think it helps us to be happier and less stressed. Additional benefit: My adult daughters are following the same path! Yay!💞
Aww how great! ☺
Just today I was making a list of things that can be stored together to lessen the clutter in my place and I can relate to almost everything that you said... This was a really good video... Thank you❤
I agree with everything you said, I was kind of minimalist without knowing what that word meant but lately I’ve been into it & learning a lot more, specially after watching a documentary about it…I love your dining room & kitchen bar as well as your beautiful dresses you’re wearing, they’re lovely!😍😍😍👌
Girl, share and keep sharing 😊
I absolutely loved this
Remembers me of flylady. That system saved me throughout a burnout. Your sum up is perfect. All so quickly done.
شكرا كشخص ب ADHD الفيديو مناسب ليا مره
Remember save your receipts , used for tax purposes . Just keep going.
Great reminder. Thanks!
Thank you. This is helpful. Do you have any tips for preteens and teens to keep their bedrooms organized?
Very pleasant to listen to, and very helpful tips. Thanks!
dress up for the day and that way if you get an unwanted visitor, you can say you were just heading out for an appointment ...thank me later
I had started to do most of these on my own and it makes such a difference. Thank you for your friendly presentation.
What amazing reminders! I’ll be rewatching this I’m positive!
I have a car trash can and it’s life changing.
My husband makes the bed. I delegated to him and he has made it religiously ever since.
Thank you for sharing, great tips for having a clutter free home.
Hi Yesi,
Great video! I would like to know if you if painted the recycled jar lids or if they come in the green color to make them look more uniform.
Thanks for the question,
I painted the lids using jars from pantry items I regularly buy. It’s an easy way to make your storage match, but without having to buy lots of containers.
@@YesiIbarra What type of paint did you use to paint the jar lids? Or do you have a short video of a tutorial of you doing this channel?
You hit the nail on the head with lack of self worth. Being an empty nester, I don't take care of myself or my home like I did when I had a family to take care of.
This changed the way I look at things. Thank you. ❤
You are certainly worthy of enjoying a beautiful home and a beautiful life. ❤️
I would love for you to do a home tour!
This is such a helpful video! I am looking forward to implementing some of your tips. I also love your mail/key/phone holder, where did you get it from? I have been looking for something similar but haven’t found one yet. Thanks!!
I got mine from target around 8 years ago. I tried to find it elsewhere, but I wasn’t able to. Sorry!
Mail? Like actual paper mail? Does it really still exist?
Unfortunately yes! My P.O. Box is always stuffed with paper advertisements. 🤦♀️
@@YesiIbarraI always push off mail, unless it’s a bill. I found a great solution was to set up a sorting station in the office so as I get it I just put it in the right slot and when it fills up I’ll transfer it to filing boxes or recycling or the compost.
Oh yes it does and lots of it
I think you need to check your mailbox - it’s stuffed full.
Love your dinning set. Where did you purchase your chairs
Thank you! I’m so proud of my husband for making such a beautiful table. ☺️
The chairs were from Walmart 8 years ago, so I’m not sure if they would still sell them.
The bed need Air after sleep
U sweat if possible Air ur Dúné or planket
Y Will love the gerning of freshness in the bed.
Hello Dear Lady, I do have a dishwasher, but with daily home cooking and then eating, I need to rinse off the dishes and pans every day even if the dishwasher is not full in one day. It most always is full by the second day. So a dishwasher is handy but it does not do the dishes and pans for you! ? ok.
I completely agree with anxiety leading to clutter and clutter leading to anxiety it can be a vicious cycle.
What a Wonderful Message/Video! Thank you!! ❤
Captioned as one minute habit but showed the thing in 16+ minutes 👏
Taking care of home as self care wow!❤
Hi, do you use rug outside bathroom to dry feet? Do you use rug near kitchen sink? Please advice. Thanks.
Hi, I currently have washable rugs in the bathroom, and I do not use rugs in the kitchen.
Where did you get that shirt? LOVE IT!!!
Thanks! It’s actually a dress. It’s linked in the description box.
It’s technically a maternity dress (or sleeveless dress), but it has a tie.
Mine was a thrift find one size larger, but I actually think one size up worked better for me because it’s stretchy.
Love! Love! Love!
Can I ask what are those arches on the counter at 9 minutes in? Thanks.
I Think that it is a child’s wooden stacking toy rainbow.
@@dawncrossland3028 Thank you.
I’m thinking about dressing better…maybe not like I would for a job, though. And I’m collecting some cute aprons that I can enjoy wearing around the house and keep my clothes clean.
Ohh that’s a good idea!
I can confidently say that the last part of this video changed my life today, I have written everything u said and can relate to it, I will read them everyday to bring more change in my life, tysm you are simply amazing 🩷😭
Congratulate yourself for the little things. Change takes time. I’m so glad you found it helpful! ❤️
Hello. I'm new to your channel. I'm a life coach and prof. home organizer and yes, we are human and learn new things all the time!!!😊 One thing I do when the kitchen is getting out of control (dishes, pots and pans mess) is to even do a few while walking in to go to another room. Can't do them all at once? No problem. Do enough and turn on the dishwasher. 50% is better than self sabotage: "Oh gee, I don't have a full 30 min, so, I can't do anything at all here." Nope. Do a few and lessen the stress and flip the switch to a more positive perspective.
Your channel is excellent!!!
