For all the teas and things you don’t want. Check to see if you have a neighbour hood fridge or food bank. Every little bit helps them out and you get a tidy home. Win win
can i just take a moment to say how much i LOVEEEEE your kitchen?! seeing how you renovated it and transformed it into this it quite literally PHENOMENAL loving the spring cleaning vibes as well ❤❤❤
Keep the tea you like, toss the rest. It's ok to toss it. If you keep things you don't use they are just going to be expired or old by the time you get to them. If you want a variety for the occasional guest get a box of sampler tea. The top drawer by the stove should have stuff you need when you cook.
I was always taught if you dont have a pantry put pantry stuff by the fridge then cooking and prep gear next to the stove and dishes near the diswasher so when you clean them you dont have to walk across the kitchen to put the dishes up but also in my small kitchen my dishes are in between the stove and dishwasher so when dishes are done they can also be near by when im done cooking so i can plate my food
I would put your tree cutting board and the winter/Christmas mugs with your Christmas decor. Easier to keep your drawers decluttered in the off season. 😊
Tara, coming from a British girl, be careful with your kettle in that unit. The steam can discolour and damage the shelf above! I wouldn't even know what to put in all those draws! I'd have the same miscellaneous draws. I love your kitchen tho 😍
I highly suggest looking for some cabinet drawer inserts for you pots and pans! They have different versions. The most common I see is the peg system. Also if you have deep drawers that would be best used as a shallower drawer, they have slide drawer inserts that adds an extra drawer within your deep drawer! Specialty cabinet and drawer insert systems are the key to turn your kitchen into a dream kitchen! Bathrooms too!! If you need a walkthrough, feel free to let me know! It can be confusing for custom kitchens.
Totally get the needing motivation for organizing. I intentionally have 2 parties a year to deep clean and organize things because I wouldn't otherwise!
Just did some early spring cleaning myself! When I finished organizing the area that needed it I heard the notification for your vlog. Woo! Now on to tackle all the miscellaneous stuff. 💕
You are not alone Tara, I was listening to a comedy podcast not long ago and the husband was calling out his wife for cleaning/ tiding up before the cleaning lady got there 😂 I would do the same. It’s really no different than having a guest over. Also was not expecting hair and beauty products in your kitchen drawers 🫣 lol thank you for sharing with us! Looks soo much better. I’ve been itching to get started on my spring cleaning 🧹🗑🗃
I love the organizing videos. I can’t sleep unless everything is in it’s right spot and where it’s suppose to be. It was fun watching the kitchen become so neat and tidy😊
As soon as you showed your old things/makeup in your parents house, instantly my Mother's voice popped into my head with her notorious saying a couple years after each child moves out "Come get your crap ... Our house is not my adult children's storage unit" 👌 🤣
girl i feel you. the other day i looked through my bedroom drawers and closet drawers - junk, junk, junk lol. good for you for cleaning all the stuff you don't need. makes room for the new stuff you will get soon from travelling / sponsor deals. 🥰
I just went on a cleaning/decluttering rampage last night, very randomly just got then urge haha also my favorite lunchtime: I have a spicy lentil wrap and Tara has posted yay!
Yes, have always made sure my house is clean/tidy for my housekeeper - I’ve had her for about 10 years now feeling much more comfortable so now if I don’t get to something I ask her if she can take care of it and pay her more Luv my housekeeper 😍
Since you have such deep drawers, you could get a pan and lid organizer so they can stand up instead of stacking them on top of each other. It's less noisy and easier to grab what you need.
This was exactly what I needed I paused halfway through to clean out my fridge and organize my kitchen 😂 then watched the rest of the video, thank you 🙏
I feel like you should have a drawer in your kitchen that contains pens/ books/notebooks/scissors/charging equipment etc that way you don’t combine it with other stuff and u also don’t have to constantly run up stairs. And if you like mugs you should have a drawer only with random mugs its kind of hard organizing but once you find a home for it. It gets a lot easier to find things and you don’t have to constantly clean things and when you receive new items you have a home for them.
I definitely clean before my cleaning lady comes over. I don’t clean clean, but I clean stuff up and put it away. Just like you, I don’t want her to think that I’m messy! One time she told me that she didn’t even think I lived here because it was so clean lol
I would suggest you keep a bin somewhere maybe in your closet or something where you can dump stuff you need out the way but don’t wanna deal with right now and once a week get that bin cleaned out and into their proper homes. But regardless I love your space so beautiful 😍💕
two ideas designate one drawer as a junk drawer and on the last day of the month clean it out or get a wicker basket either with a lid or my preference a handle keep on floor under the window in kitchen then you can see whats in it and easily carry things around the house putting things away as needed
Be careful what baking supplies you put next to your oven girl! Certain ingredients/spices don't do well close to heat sources. For example, Nutmeg is SUPER flammable and actually a huge cause to lots of house fires that occur in kitchens. Just an FYI =)
Hi, did you ever consider sending some of the coffee drinks that give you a summer vibe to CA where you may feel more like drinking them? Not a lot, just a few.
hey tara☺!!!! happy Tues yayyy!! luv your organizing❤❤ I've been cleaning early, also before spring!!☺☺ sending luv to ya babe❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤!! luv the clothing haul 👌!!! hugs and kisses 💋😘😗😚😙🤗💋
As someone who still currently has a pile of Christmas decorations sitting out, taunting me with claims of laziness, THANK YOU so much for sharing that with us bc it encourages me to speak kindly and just to GET IT DONE! 👏
Just put the bathroom clutter on the kitchen hahaha. Write a list of what bins you need for what and designate the home for the bins. That kitchen behind the doors and drawers was craY. Hahahaha
My Emily's bedroom is exactly how she left it when she left for college in 2014. She is now 27 years old. The only thing that I have changed is the bedding. I often go in there just to remember her teenage years. I wouldn't change a thing. Although, I do wish she would come and clean out the closets. LOL
I hate taking down Xmas stuff. I took things down from my room and next year nope!!!! Not gonna do it. I say it every year. The living room still has a few xmas stuff up too lol 😆
Had to do some organizing before I leave the city again 😂 I always find these videos so satisfying so I hope you enjoyyyy!!
Initially a little disturbing 😆 but soo satisfying! LOVE organizing videos 🫶 Safe travels!
It is satisfying 🙃😃semi asmr
love a cleaning vlog ❤
😂 you think we have cleaning ladies lol I wish and if I did I would clean before she cleaned also lol
For all the teas and things you don’t want. Check to see if you have a neighbour hood fridge or food bank. Every little bit helps them out and you get a tidy home. Win win
Great idea 💚

You can also spread the tea over your garden.
I always share tea I don't like with my cousin and aunt or friends. Between us one of us is bound to like it!
Yes!

Throw shit out! Lol especially all those teas. And no shoving in and coming back to things...fix it while your doing it. Total satisfaction when done!

oh never tried this, but you should get a dish drying racks for plates and bowls for your pot and pan lids
So considering starting online classes with Kaia. The way you sound and feel afterwards is exactly what I’m looking for
My office is closed today due to a lot of snow so this inspired me to do some spring cleaning of my own!
I love the organizing videos. I can’t sleep
unless everything is in it’s right spot and where it’s suppose to be. It was fun watching the kitchen become so neat and tidy😊
As soon as you showed your old things/makeup in your parents house, instantly my Mother's voice popped into my head with her notorious saying a couple years after each child moves out "Come get your crap ... Our house is not my adult children's storage unit" 👌 🤣
Omg my mom says this too lol
girl i feel you. the other day i looked through my bedroom drawers and closet drawers - junk, junk, junk lol. good for you for cleaning all the stuff you don't need. makes room for the new stuff you will get soon from travelling / sponsor deals. 🥰
organized drawers are sooooo satisfying
What about putting the tree shaped charcuterie board and Christmas mugs in the Christmas bins in your basement?
Fantastic idea! I absolutely should do this ahahah
Reminiscing on the sweet potato gnocchi, avacado toast, tiktok coffee in a mason jar with bamboo lid, egg chair back patio in LA vibes. 😂
What a fun video it would be if you renovated your old room into a space for your parents or something like that!!
You should vlog cleaning the old room out that would be fun to watch 😊
Yes!!! I def wanna do this next time at my parents house!
It would be so fun to see you do a room makeover of your bedroom at your parent’s house !
i love the layout of your house!! so beautifuil, i dont think i've ever seen anything like it
Literally opened the UA-cam app and saw you uploaded 1 minute ago. Perrrrfect 😍 Love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱💙
Using your tidying to inspire me to do the same tomorrow. Off topic but I absolutely love your necklaces and couldn’t figure out where they were from?
I’ve been doing some early spring cleaning too. Been having some spring temperatures lately where I live. I’m ready for spring/summer. ❤
I moved in June and been putting off organizing my kitchen, I think it's the plan for tomorrow because it's driving me crazy
I just went on a cleaning/decluttering rampage last night, very randomly just got then urge haha also my favorite lunchtime: I have a spicy lentil wrap and Tara has posted yay!
Black is my jam!!! Love the outfit!
Yes, have always made sure my house is clean/tidy for my housekeeper - I’ve had her for about 10 years now feeling much more comfortable so now if I don’t get to something I ask her if she can take care of it and pay her more Luv my housekeeper 😍
Love the clean and spring morning day! ❤
I cleaned my kitchen while watching this 😂 thanks for keeping me company and also now I don’t feel bad about my misc. drawers lol
Since you have such deep drawers, you could get a pan and lid organizer so they can stand up instead of stacking them on top of each other. It's less noisy and easier to grab what you need.
We always tidy for the cleaning ladies because of the same reasons you said!!😂❤
This was exactly what I needed I paused halfway through to clean out my fridge and organize my kitchen 😂 then watched the rest of the video, thank you 🙏

Why was this such a fun journey that I enjoyed being a part of? Lol we are the same person when it comes to cleaning and I love not being alone🤣🤣
I love these videos!! They motivate me to clean…. Also LOVE the just random skincare in your kitchen Hahaha
Here for all the organizing. ❤
I never noticed that other closet there!!
Great storage!
It’s probably already been said but you may need an electrician to check out your lights. If they’re shorting out it could easily cause a fire.
My favourite UA-camr and my favourite type of video! ❤
cups, mugs, bottles and tumblers are bringing a little to much joy loll
Lol I do the same thing about tidying up before the cleaning lady 😂 even at hotels I’ll tidy up for when they go make the beds lol
You calmly reading for an hour…me & my OCD internally yelling please no, just finish it! 😂
Where are your jeans from in the kitchen tidy? Absolutely love them!! xxx
Love these vids too. Also was so looking forward to your upload!!
YES THE BIN OF MISC CORDS I LOVE YOUR DAD MINE IS THE SAME!!!
that restaurant was gorgeous
yess some of my best cleaning moments have been when someone is on their way.. 😂😂
Your spring cleaning is so satisfying! 😍💖
Clean&organize.... that's what I needed 💛💛💛
I love seeing the cleaning vlogs. It makes me feel productive when I myself am procrastinating LOL
Ahhh im excited for the LA vlogs!! Can't wait to see the LA apt and the trader joes/target hauls lol
You should make a whole vlog on you reminiscing to your old videos 😂❤
Be careful what baking supplies you put next to your oven girl! Certain ingredients/spices don't do well close to heat sources. For example, Nutmeg is SUPER flammable and actually a huge cause to lots of house fires that occur in kitchens. Just an FYI =)
Watching this made me want to clean my room lol
Hi, did you ever consider sending some of the coffee drinks that give you a summer vibe to CA where you may feel more like drinking them? Not a lot, just a few.
Yayyyyy to the long vlogs. I get so happy when I see they are not shorts and are long😂
I like videos like this, makes me feel motivated to clean lol!
10 seconds and I’m here lol. I love your videos so much!❤
I love watching any and all of your videos you are such a bright and motivating person and I love you so much!
I need to know where to get those drawer organizers.

Where are your jeans from while organizing? Super cute!

Tara can you tell us where you get all of your jewelry 🥹
With the milk tea, you should attempt to make boba and make yourself a little boba milk tea. That might be fun :)
Not you cycling through all your new clothes in one day 😆 I’m the exact same way!
Yay 🎉 just sat down to chill for a bit and wanted to watch a vlog...and here yours is! My fav! ❤️
As someone who still currently has a pile of Christmas decorations sitting out, taunting me with claims of laziness, THANK YOU so much for sharing that with us bc it encourages me to speak kindly and just to GET IT DONE! 👏
You can do it!!!!
That always gets me, cleaning for the cleaners, what's the point
How does your door lock work? It looks like you don't need keys, that's so cool
You can make tiramisu with the decaf pods
Where are your snake chain necklaces from?
Girl American eagles OFFLINE flared leggings are IT! You’ve gotta check them out. I got one pair and bought two more lol 😂
My rule of thumb: One Junk Drawer in every room is totally acceptable 😉
They don’t look short they look perfect unless they shrink I would keep
Hey Tara I got a idea 💡 why don’t you make it a hot tea drawer
wish I had your kitchen ❤ it's my dream!!!☺❤☺❤☺
where is your black jacket from !!!
LOL your soup bowl is huge 🤣
First ❤ love your videos so much
Just put the bathroom clutter on the kitchen hahaha. Write a list of what bins you need for what and designate the home for the bins. That kitchen behind the doors and drawers was craY. Hahahaha
Aww she looks so cute
A nice spring cleaning!❤❤
I love all your videos
Love u Tara amazing video love from Ecuador ❤️

Love the cleaning vlogs.❤

Love love love your videos it always feels so calming like I’m FaceTiming with a girl friend
My Emily's bedroom is exactly how she left it when she left for college in 2014. She is now 27 years old. The only thing that I have changed is the bedding. I often go in there just to remember her teenage years. I wouldn't change a thing. Although, I do wish she would come and clean out the closets. LOL
Where are your jeans from ?
Hey you know you have to have at least one junk drawer 😂 at least we people in the Midwest do
Yes a junk drawer is expected and honestly a must. Same here in the Netherlands😹👌
I hate taking down Xmas stuff. I took things down from my room and next year nope!!!! Not gonna do it. I say it every year. The living room still has a few xmas stuff up too lol 😆
