I was thinking the same thing! I'm working on my undergrad degree rn in studio art. They have a great sense of motion and lead the viewers eye around the painting well.
I'm pretty sure my mom is once every 10 years kind of oven cleaner 😊 I personally have never lived in one place long enough to get around to cleaning an oven... I only learned there was a drawer at the bottom a year ago. blew my mind😅
What I’m good at….I retired and husband bought me a loom. I make kitchen towels for friends and for money. UA-cam taught me. I truly enjoy your love if life. Good bless you.
The last part of your clip helps us to understand that none of us has the same shape, none of us have the same habits, none of us of us fit in one box or category but somehow we’re all the same, much love!!!
I love your son’s art! The fact that he made it makes it extra special, but it genuinely looks great as well. You ought to have him paint something for baby girl’s nursery. Great video!!
I clean my oven racks without scrubbing for the most part. I put hot soapy water in the bathtub and drop in 2-3 dishwasher packs. I lay a towel down on the bottom of the tub to prevent the racks from scratching the tub. Put the oven racks in over night, and the crud will pretty much rinse off the next morning.
I'm good at online shopping and great at eating bread and butter 😂 but also, I believe I'm good at sharing things I've learned. And I never knew that FLY meant finally loving yourself - that's beautiful 🥺
I didn't know "Fly" stood for Finally Loving Yourself. What am I good at? I'm good at seeing the good in people. Thanks for a lovely video and all the eating inspiration , LOL!
Your son’s art is beautiful. I have art work from my daughter displayed even now, and she is an adult. I never get tired of looking at her art work, each piece is so unique and has a memory.
I am a great mom. My girls are grown now with children of their own. They still talk to me about everything. We were big smugglers. It brings so much joy to me when I see the girls snuggling with their little ones. They are great moms too. ❤
Apply aluminum foil to the bottom of the stove and you won't have to clean it as often. When the aluminum gets dirty replace with a new piece. I do this and it makes cleaning the stove so much better. You will love it!
Love your videos! You are so entertaining and I love finally being able to watch cleaning content from someone who doesn’t live in a brand new mansion 😄 love your refurbished cabinets, I may have to try that! my neglected task is cleaning baseboards!!
Hi Katie I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….
When I found you I had no idea what fly lady was. Long story short I just love your personality I think you are hilarious! And I love that your just human . Not a fake robot UA-camr lol .🤣
You made me smile, and I appreciate you, because just yesterday I lost my beloved friend to cancer, she was just 34 years old and she didn't get to experience the feeling of being a mom and she was a single daughter to her mother. I'm so devastated by her loss that can't even get out of bed to take care of my little children. I just can't.....😭
Wow I am so sorry for the deep sorrow you must be feeling. And it's even harder to grieve when you're a mother because you have to find the energy to take care of your children when you can barely take care of yourself. Life can be so unfair, I'm so so sorry about your friend. There are no words that can make these kind of difficult times better. I'll be thinking of you. Sending you a HUGE virtual hug ❤️
Your son's abstract art are masterpieces! They look so nice in your home! You've inspired me to clean my oven. Truth be told, I think it's been over 3 years since I've cleaned it. Yikes!
My oven totally used to look exactly like that! I found a tip. I put foil at the bottom of my oven. Now, when the foil gets dirty, I replace it. Works great. I love your videos. You motivate me to make progress in my home and you always make me smile. 😀❤️
I'm so glad that I can bring just a little spark of joy to your week ❤️❤️ I'm sorry that things haven't been easy for you. I hope it gets better soon 🙏
I have this amazing silicone mat that goes on the bottom of the oven. I just pull it out, clean it in the sink, and slide it right back into the oven. I bought it at Target.
The robot vacuum and glass cleaning towel are game changing! I thought the glass towel was a gimmick but brought mine at Amazon and will never go without them again. I just use water and they shine my mirrors.
I hate cleaning the fridge, but I think it would be the blinds I haven't cleaned in years. I dust them but they really need to be taken down and put in the tub! I love your son's art, they are beautiful!
It's been 3 years since I cleaned my oven and it's spotless---because it's broken! And since my husband's hobby is baking breads and pies, I'm not getting it fixed until the pandemic is over and we can get out more or we will both weigh more than a ton! LOVE your videos!
Love your videos. Congratulations on your pregnancy. You don’t need a chair for the fan, just get an extra long swiffer or one of the equivalent reusable options. All are cheap at Walmart.
I don't like blinds, they collect so much dust! But I definitely understand not having curtains by an open stove. I cleaned my oven semi-recently, but it's self cleaning. Plus we only moved in last fall, so we had to give the whole place a good scrub. Love your videos, congrats on the baby, I'm 17 weeks now, so I get the lower energy levels! I am an artist, so I'm pretty decent with a paint brush, and I like your art! I love framing kid art, it makes me happy to frame my sons' art pieces.
Hi! I love your sense of humor!!! Things I have NEVER done in the 12 YEARS I've lived in my house: mop the garage floor, tops of door frames, doors, need I go on?😂😂😂
I used to hate cleaning the oven and the oven trays. But now I just soke em in hot soap water and then use a stove glas scraper. Those things are magic and absolute game changer!!! What I always forget to clean is my fridge. Yikes.
You were hilarious cleaning the oven on a white shirt. Like me bleaching the kitchen sink in a black shirt. Welcome to the club. Great video and so real. Thanks ❤️
You are such a fun loving mom. Our oven is long overdue for a deep cleaning… I’ll get on that after I bake blueberry muffins for our busy day tomorrow. Lol one thing I like to think I’m pretty good at that I enjoy doing is crocheting. Thanks for all the giggles you share. Always brings smiles and laughter to our family when we watch them.
You'll be happy to know I decluttered and reorganized my understairs utility closet and laundry room today... I also cleaned the top of my fridge. But I have yet to clean my oven... or pull either my fridge or oven out to clean under and behind them...😉🤫
It's been over 3 years since I cleaned the laundry cupboards and behind the pictures on the walls. Thanks for the reminder to find things we are good at rather than bad
The oven looks great 👍 well done 👏 Your sons abstract art is great. Take naps and rest when you can because you deserve it and your pregnant 🤰 Stay safe and healthy. Mary, Joes wife 👏👍💪🙏💐
Two more ideas for inexpensive art or decor is shop thrift stores. I have bought some cool pieces. The UA-camr, Prepper Princess use her photos and sent them off to a company that makes canvas art. They are beautiful and she took the pictures! So cool
If you add a layer of aluminum foil to the floor of your oven it will catch the drips and make your next cleaning session so much easier! Love your sense of humour!
I had a range similar to yours. I hated trying to clean it. With all the coils and whatsits. Rather than clean the oven, I literally saved the money for three months to buy a new range with a glass too and no oven coil. Game changer, girl. Game changer.
I just cleaned our oven a few months ago after living in our house for over a year aaaand it was disgusting! The people who lived here before us I'm pretty sure didn't clean it once since they bought it and it was mostly their gunk as I don't bake all that often. Lol! It took me THREE. FRICKIN. DAYS! I had to go back over some spots with a razor blade to get them up and it turns out some of those spots were actual rust so yeah...Short story long, I'm saving up for a new oven. Lol I didn't know you were preggo until now because I've somehow missed your videos lately and I'm so excited for you!!!
You just reminded me that I haven't cleaned my oven in... ever. It's not a new one, either, it's been in our house for at least 10 years. Thanks for the safe oven cleaner formula!
I clean my oven racks by putting them in a black plastic bag throw in liquid amonia lay that bag in the sun for a few hours and the crud can be sprayed off with a hose. I have used oven cleaner too.
Hi,really really like all of your videos.I am good at cleaning ,but just when I am reading a REALLY really good book and I give myself 5-10 minutes of reading time after I finish a chore,otherways nobody never does it :) this is my best motivation,or if I don't have a good book then I just give myself 10 minutes of starring the ceiling in quiet.
Haven't cleaned my yard in 3 years lol We've only lived here for 2.5 years though. :) I deep deep Clean my oven every fall before Thanksgiving/Christmas cooking, and every april during Spring cleaning. If something spills inside i try to clean it once the oven is cooled down
When I had an electric oven I would always take that thick aluminum foil and after I cleaned it I would lift up the lower element and line the bottom with the aluminum foil. If I was able to keep up on it I could just change out the aluminum foil on the bottom was clean. When I didn't it would get icky under the aluminum foil and then I just have to clean the whole thing and put new foil in.
I love watching your channel ( new sub who has been telling others about it) - you’re so funny and not only that but I like that you’re such a positive motivating person/ mom. I’m a case manager by trade and think I’m good at helping people .
This was so much fun!!! It’s been 3 years since I cleaned my oven too. I’m cleaning it because we are moving. Lol In South Carolina we don’t spring clean. We wait until after the pine trees finish with their pollen Armageddon. Seriously that yellow stuff gets everywhere. Google pictures of it. You can literally watch it blow out of the trees. I still have some of my boys’ art on the walls. I love the freedom in children’s work. I’m good at finding addresses, color theory application, and noticing people who need a boost emotionally. I am terrible with eating ice cream. You might just have to eat one for me! Your house is so adorable. It’s the kind of house that invites people to have a springtime glass of lemonade and a jump on the trampoline. Perfection.
Scraper blade and steel wool pads help tons! Refuse to use the corner of your blade so you don’t cause scratches. You can also use both on your glass cooktop, same thing as before, don’t use corner of scraper blades or you’ll have permanent scratches but you don’t have to use the factory recommended soft scrub, you can scrape off stubborn cooked on food on your stovetop and then follow behind with a sos pad with enough water to keep it all damp and scrub away! You’ll be amazed by how it shines and even though it’s not an easy job it will take so much less time and effort than soft scrub
Ah that was great. You are one funny lady. I have never cleaned my oven! Its a range type that stays on all the time so far too hot to clean, yah 🎉🎉🎉 I’m very good at poultry keeping, spinning, weaving and knitting and those crafts take up most of my time 😊
The cupboard under my stairs has been cleaned out exactly 5 times since I moved here, 26 years ago. It's full of life jackets, ice skates, horse riding things, brollies and wellies, oh, and a tent.
My oven was a mess when we bought this house. The previous owner, well shall we say just didn't clean. Buy a razor thingy to scrap the chunky parts. It will help in those hard to clean places. They cost a buck. Worth it. I love how spunky you are. Cheers & thanks for the video.
The first video of yours I watched was the Clean Mama routine... and I'm very happy for you that you now have an automatic vacuum to get those dust bunnies under the couch for you. Well-deserved!
Thanks for great cleaning motivation! My oven, despite being self-cleaning, still needs a good clean! Hasn't been done in at least 2 years. Lots of junk in there. I also appreciate your words to help us all to remember to love and appreciate ourselves. 💚💚 Love your new rug and vacuum too!
Self cleaning ovens are the worst thing for said oven. They break it, don’t do a good job, and can harm pets. Best thing. Baking soda and dawn. If a bad stain put plastic wrap on it and let it sit for an hour and use a scrub daddy to scrub it.
FYI! Most modern stoves have a removable door. Just open the door part way and pull up on it. It is super easy to do and makes cleaning the oven so much easier. Also, you can find oven liner pads that sit on the bottom of the oven and are washable. Blinds can be put in a little Dawn and hot water and let them soak. Wash with a cloth if necessary and rinse. Let some of the water drain off then hang over the shower curtain or clothesline to finish drying.
Thanks for the motivation to clean my oven. I don’t know how long it’s been but dare I say more than three years! 😅 I also cleaned my microwave. The cupboards are going to have to be another day I’m pooped! 🥵😄🙌🏻
I had six kids in ten years. I only ever cleaned the oven when I was pregnant. It was my nesting thing and I’d do it at the start and end of pregnancy. I really don’t need more kids but the motivation to clean my oven would be kinda nice. On a side note the odd time it has happened since, my husband looks really worried!
Fellow NYer here! Yay for no snow! I also open my windows and stare in awe 😆 Fun motivational video! I’m good at..... getting attacked by thorn bushes that I smacked in frustration and they smacked me back.
There are lots of things in my house that I haven't cleaned in over 3 years. and several that I haven't cleaned in over 2 years. I normally have to clean the drawer under my oven at least once a year, because I live in the woods and sometimes mice will come in and leave unappreciated "gifts" in the drawer. 🤢But otherwise it would probably take 3 years 🤣
I just want to say I love you. You are the cutest thing on the planet. I literally am spending my Sat morning watching all of your videos:) You are a light in this world!
You are delightful, I am so happy when your videos pop up in my feed. I line my oven with ovenliner, makes cleaning much much easier. I put the oven racks in a garbage bag with a cup of ammonia, seal it and leave it in the sun for a couple of hours. This gives really good results. Hope you have a blessed week. ⚘
I honestly thought the paintings your son painted were painted by you, they look great! I also love the paintings you did, everything matches nicely and I also love having meaningful, priceless art in my home.
Aaaa sis you make me smile and cry ..idk towards the end when you were saying about peaking positive things about each of us..i felt all teary eyed ..never a wasted minute as i watch your videos sis 🥰🥰🥰🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
My mini blinds!! I always say I'm going to clean them and even have a special tool to make cleaning them easier, but I never get around to it. I just look up one day and realize they're so caked in dust and grime that it's beyond difficult to clean them. So I don't.....and now they're embarrassingly dirty.
Window cloths are awesome they save so much money! I love baking soda and vinegar sooo and good it really works wonders! Your oven looks wonderful! I like both blinds are practical but curtains are so beautiful. Awesome video and amazing wall art Ariel you are truly FLY-ing 💛
Nesting flylady style😁 Playing with your sweet boy is so adorable.

1- Top of furnitures. 2- Ceiling lights fixtures. Probably 10 years. 1- I store up there what I never use or rarely. 2- I don't use them, ever. I use only strip lights and floor/table lamps. Your son's art is fabulous!
From the old school big boy vacuum, to a stick AND a robot?! Proud of you mama 😆
I know right, I'm moving up in the world!!!!!!
Right?! So cool 😎
Next stop dishwasher!!!

As a former art student, they are legitimately good abstract paintings.
Thank you!!!! 🙏
I was thinking the same thing! I'm working on my undergrad degree rn in studio art. They have a great sense of motion and lead the viewers eye around the painting well.
You're the most entertaining, funny person I watch on UA-cam, including all my cleaning channels. I love you and your style! Keep up the great work!
Thank you!! 🙏
I agree! Ariel is awesome!
I agree. She's the best!
I'm not going to say how long it was... I'll just say that it was longer than 3 years between oven cleanings for me. Nice job!
People.. Clean their ovens? I just run the oven clean setting once every 5 years or so
You have to CLEAN an oven?!
I'm pretty sure my mom is once every 10 years kind of oven cleaner 😊
I personally have never lived in one place long enough to get around to cleaning an oven... I only learned there was a drawer at the bottom a year ago. blew my mind😅
Cleaning the over? A big fat never. Never *yet*
So….. I haven’t cleaned my oven ever….. I bought my house in 2015.
What I’m good at….I retired and husband bought me a loom. I make kitchen towels for friends and for money. UA-cam taught me. I truly enjoy your love if life. Good bless you.
The last part of your clip helps us to understand that none of us has the same shape, none of us have the same habits, none of us of us fit in one box or category but somehow we’re all the same, much love!!!
I love your son’s art! The fact that he made it makes it extra special, but it genuinely looks great as well. You ought to have him paint something for baby girl’s nursery. Great video!!
A true treasure! I hope she put the date he created it on the back.
Such a sweet idea.
I clean my oven racks without scrubbing for the most part. I put hot soapy water in the bathtub and drop in 2-3 dishwasher packs. I lay a towel down on the bottom of the tub to prevent the racks from scratching the tub. Put the oven racks in over night, and the crud will pretty much rinse off the next morning.
So good! If you add vinegar and baking soda it seems to glide right off from my experience. 😊
Wow! Great ideas, guys👍👍👍
@@gohawks3571 anytime 😊
I do the same thing. Amazing how well it works!
I do the same, but use Dawn liquid soap. 👍🏻
I'm good at online shopping and great at eating bread and butter 😂 but also, I believe I'm good at sharing things I've learned. And I never knew that FLY meant finally loving yourself - that's beautiful 🥺
I didn’t know what fly meant until your comment lol I guess I didn’t catch that 😅
I didn't know "Fly" stood for Finally Loving Yourself. What am I good at? I'm good at seeing the good in people. Thanks for a lovely video and all the eating inspiration , LOL!
Your son’s art is beautiful. I have art work from my daughter displayed even now, and she is an adult. I never get tired of looking at her art work, each piece is so unique and has a memory.
Those paintings ARE beautiful! Not just you being a proud mom
I agree ! Very nice!
Your bump is so Very Beautiful, yes you boy and you are also ❤️.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful time with us. 😊

Me too and it’s a game changer !! 😃
I do this!
I did this and it melted to the bottom
@@Gorillaglueonyoface you have to use the boujee heavy duty foil for this trick to work.
Yes and aluminum foil in each of the spiral stove tops! Sooo much food drops down there !
Love your videos! You are so entertaining and I love finally being able to watch cleaning content from someone who doesn’t live in a brand new mansion 😄 love your refurbished cabinets, I may have to try that! my neglected task is cleaning baseboards!!

@@ThatAwkwardMom you’re welcome! Excited for the new baby! Congrats love :)
You made me smile, and I appreciate you, because just yesterday I lost my beloved friend to cancer, she was just 34 years old and she didn't get to experience the feeling of being a mom and she was a single daughter to her mother.

I lived in my house for 17 years before I knew you had to take the grates out of the range hood to clean them.
Behind the fridge 😯
Oh, Ariel…nothing is really going right for me lately, but when you upload content, I feel so much better.🥰🥰🥰
I'm so glad that I can bring just a little spark of joy to your week ❤️❤️ I'm sorry that things haven't been easy for you. I hope it gets better soon 🙏

This is why one of the first things we bought was a self cleaning stove. When we bought our house the one in the house was gross.
Ah that was great. You are one funny lady. I have never cleaned my oven! Its a range type that stays on all the time so far too hot to clean, yah 🎉🎉🎉 I’m very good at poultry keeping, spinning, weaving and knitting and those crafts take up most of my time 😊
The cupboard under my stairs has been cleaned out exactly 5 times since I moved here, 26 years ago. It's full of life jackets, ice skates, horse riding things, brollies and wellies, oh, and a tent.
My oven was a mess when we bought this house. The previous owner, well shall we say just didn't clean. Buy a razor thingy to scrap the chunky parts. It will help in those hard to clean places. They cost a buck. Worth it.
I love how spunky you are.
Cheers & thanks for the video.
The first video of yours I watched was the Clean Mama routine... and I'm very happy for you that you now have an automatic vacuum to get those dust bunnies under the couch for you. Well-deserved!
I love your kids art work on the wall! I wished I would have known that when my kids were younger!
Thanks for great cleaning motivation! My oven, despite being self-cleaning, still needs a good clean! Hasn't been done in at least 2 years. Lots of junk in there. I also appreciate your words to help us all to remember to love and appreciate ourselves. 💚💚 Love your new rug and vacuum too!
Self cleaning ovens are the worst thing for said oven. They break it, don’t do a good job, and can harm pets.
Best thing. Baking soda and dawn. If a bad stain put plastic wrap on it and let it sit for an hour and use a scrub daddy to scrub it.
Thank you Lisa! I'm glad I'm not the only one who goes over 2 years avoiding the oven clean lol 🤷♀️
Talented son,,,talented Mom…!
Gonna have to think about what I’m good at these days. Will continue cogitating.
My oven also. Moved in April 2018. Never cleaned. Have a newborn and two toddlers so think I’ll go a while longer before I clean! 😂
FYI! Most modern stoves have a removable door. Just open the door part way and pull up on it. It is super easy to do and makes cleaning the oven so much easier. Also, you can find oven liner pads that sit on the bottom of the oven and are washable. Blinds can be put in a little Dawn and hot water and let them soak. Wash with a cloth if necessary and rinse. Let some of the water drain off then hang over the shower curtain or clothesline to finish drying.
Thanks for the motivation to clean my oven. I don’t know how long it’s been but dare I say more than three years! 😅 I also cleaned my microwave. The cupboards are going to have to be another day I’m pooped! 🥵😄🙌🏻
I had six kids in ten years. I only ever cleaned the oven when I was pregnant. It was my nesting thing and I’d do it at the start and end of pregnancy.
I really don’t need more kids but the motivation to clean my oven would be kinda nice.
On a side note the odd time it has happened since, my husband looks really worried!
Great oven. You could use Norwex OvenNGrill cleaner..also Norwex enviro cloth is so amazing and saves so much wipes and cloths 😉
Fellow NYer here! Yay for no snow! I also open my windows and stare in awe 😆
Fun motivational video!
I’m good at..... getting attacked by thorn bushes that I smacked in frustration and they smacked me back.
There are lots of things in my house that I haven't cleaned in over 3 years. and several that I haven't cleaned in over 2 years. I normally have to clean the drawer under my oven at least once a year, because I live in the woods and sometimes mice will come in and leave unappreciated "gifts" in the drawer. 🤢But otherwise it would probably take 3 years 🤣
Sometimes I re-listen to old videos of yours while I clean just to get me going.👍
Love that!!! 👍👍
Wow love your son’s art! Good job cleaning and I loved the eating motivation!
I just want to say I love you. You are the cutest thing on the planet. I literally am spending my Sat morning watching all of your videos:) You are a light in this world!
You are so sweet! Thank you ❤️❤️😊
Under my sink is an absolute nightmare, I haven't cleaned it since buying the house 6 years ago. It's on the list to tackle soon.
I am good at art and your son is an artist. 🎨🖌️. Beautiful work.
Cleaning the oven is so much easier if you take the door off!
You are delightful, I am so happy when your videos pop up in my feed. I line my oven with ovenliner, makes cleaning much much easier. I put the oven racks in a garbage bag with a cup of ammonia, seal it and leave it in the sun for a couple of hours. This gives really good results. Hope you have a blessed week. ⚘
I honestly thought the paintings your son painted were painted by you, they look great! I also love the paintings you did, everything matches nicely and I also love having meaningful, priceless art in my home.
Never thought I would laugh with tears rolling down my face while watching a pregnant lady clean her oven!! You crack me up - keep up the good work.
Aaaa sis you make me smile and cry ..idk towards the end when you were saying about peaking positive things about each of us..i felt all teary eyed ..never a wasted minute as i watch your videos sis 🥰🥰🥰🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thanks Ashley 😊 I hope you did speak some positive words to yourself ❤️
@@ThatAwkwardMom hehe i tried sis ❤️❤️❤️ you're the best!!
My mini blinds!! I always say I'm going to clean them and even have a special tool to make cleaning them easier, but I never get around to it. I just look up one day and realize they're so caked in dust and grime that it's beyond difficult to clean them. So I don't.....and now they're embarrassingly dirty.
Those skinnier blinds are really a pain to clean, I used to have them at my old apartment and I hated taking care of them!
Window cloths are awesome they save so much money! I love baking soda and vinegar sooo and good it really works wonders! Your oven looks wonderful! I like both blinds are practical but curtains are so beautiful. Awesome video and amazing wall art Ariel you are truly FLY-ing 💛
Nesting flylady style😁
Playing with your sweet boy is so adorable.
1- Top of furnitures. 2- Ceiling lights fixtures. Probably 10 years. 1- I store up there what I never use or rarely. 2- I don't use them, ever. I use only strip lights and floor/table lamps.
Your son's art is fabulous!
