      Great video! Your house looks beautiful as always. It was fun to see an updated tour. However, I'm curious... I don't understand why YTubers start courses/classes/FB groups that charge for information that are already in their YT videos.You have made huge accomplishments. I've watched you since you were Malitose79 and I've read both books that you published. How much more info can be in a paid course when there are years of YT videos to refer to? MM and her sister started a FB group that you have to pay to join. Wouldn't you make more money over the long run by just putting out more videos that will collect more and more views over years VS paid courses? I'm just curious because I'm noticing other long time YTubers making changes to their content and video output recently.

      It sounds great and like so much fun. I will not participate because Dawn puts out videos where she says she and her husband don’t like people & they have no friends...but claim they are Christians. Even if I weren’t a Christian I would never think that was ok. That’s just how I feel and it’s my own opinion. Perhaps you will delete my comment. It’s ok with me it’s your channel. I will continue to listen to Dana’s podcast and watch your videos...to the end!!!

    I am a real estate appraiser and have entered thousands of homes in Southern California. 97% of people had clutter in their homes. The other 3% were vacant homes in escrow 🤣 Many of the clean homes were clean and tidy because a housekeeper just left before I got there. Luckily, this experience left me with a lot less anxiety about the condition of my home. I still want a neat and tidy home, but, I refuse to hate myself when it isn’t.

    • @Darnabymom

      Thank you for sharing your experience. I've come to be at peace where my home is now, but still continue to declutter and organize as I can.
      I've come a long way in a couple of years. I'm starting to notice that I actually have made progress. My mom had a housekeeper and her expectations of what the home would be like is higher than I can achieve. She lives with us, which is more of a blessing than it sounds. Our home is mostly messy in cluttered hot spot areas. We have TOO much stuff and too big of a house. Working on having copious amounts of less stuff GONE when my husband and I downsize. Essential stuff is the goal. I'm a bee and I think my husband is too.That can make it harder, but not impossible.

      Pues tu casa, según dices, pertenece a ese 97%. ¿No te da vergüenza? 😂🤣😂😂🤣😂
      Te sugiero que te des una vueltita por las viviendas españolas, ¡¡¡Es al revés!!! El 97% las tienen super limpias.
      Las casas de las españolas siempre están limpias y ordenadas. Puedes caerles en cualquier momento que nunca tienen ni desorden ni trastos ni ropa por lavar o planchar. Y para tu información todas trabajan fuera, cocinan el almuerzo y la cena, cosa que las gringas no hacen, atienden a sus hijos y maridos y un 90% no tienen servicio doméstico ni ayuda de ningún tipo. Y encima, ¡encima! Tienen tiempo para salir a divertirse. Cómo lo hacen, no lo sé, pero es así.
      O sea, en conclusión, si se puede trabajar fuera, atender la familia y tener una casa de revista. Si ellas pueden, que son unas simples mortales cualquiera puede.

      Mine is the office/den. In March, my husband took it over as his work space. He works 7 days a week and more than 8 hours most days. They want his group to take vacation days, but the work they do won"t get done and it is crucial (corporate accounting for a utility supply company) So I've been working on other area of our home.

    Thank you for showing your beautiful, realistic home. I love that it’s not minimalist, because frankly, most people with kids aren’t minimalists. People shop at warehouse clubs, they have family members that hoard, and sometimes inherit possessions from departed loved ones. Because of that, they don’t always want to pare down to only necessities. Do I have Christmas dishes for 12? Yes I do. I use them once a year and I’m absolutely not parting with them.
    But to see how organized and calm your home is... that’s beautiful!
    Thank you

      I'm a minimalist with a 2yo, studied minimalism for 11 years. 12 plates doesn't create clutter, 7 types of toothpaste, 5 jars of shampoo, 15 types of cleaner - that's what makes life messy and chaotic. A million choices like these make life harder for some people, extra work, but I choose not to have that extra work.

It's my girly area where I can leave my hot rollers out and ready to go and my blow dryer has its own stand so I can just grab it whenever I need it. The drawers are all categorized by product and it just makes me happy! Cass, you deserve to have your own vanity table and Joe won't complain about the bathroom anymore!!! WIN-WIN!

      moved in at my sisters house ( after my Ma passed) . Right away, one full garage was taken up with my stuff! Her house 🏡 was less sq.ft than my condo , with now, 3 people! I now (after 4 yrs here) have 2 full rooms to myself and some area in the basement. I figured I must organize higher , and higher in my crest to conquer some real nice looking organization !! Still at it. Not nailing in walls , n wish I could build items , like taller shelvings. Thank you for all You do and what I am learning from that !!

    When we lived in a really small flat we only had one really small bathroom. It was hard, especially in the mornings when my husband wanted to shower and shave but I had to do my hair and make up. Our solution was that we moved everything that did not need water out of the bathroom: hairbrush, hairdryer, make up, deodorant etc. We put these things in a dresser in the hall and used them there. There was a big mirror above the dresser so it was like a vanity. And it worked!
    Maybe you could find a similar solution?

    Thank you for the tour of your beautiful and organized home. Because you've used cube shelving so well I'm surprised you haven't employed the same solution for your Harry Potter closet. I just rewatched your old video where you did such a great job of getting everything in labeled bins but instead of just stacking them on each other maybe Joe could make you an oversized shelving system where you can grab any bin without disturbing the others. Not only would it make getting things out easier but it would create incentive and make it easier to put things away by just opening the proper bin. I'll bet you could make a deal with Joe...you swear you'll keep the master bathroom clean and he'll make your storage shelves. 😄 Whatya think? XXOO❤

Your house looks lived in, even though it’s tidy. Right now, my house just looks lived in. I’m slowly working my way toward a more sane existence. I love what Dawn says about managing inventory and having less stuff to manage so you have more time for the things that matter more to you.

I do have a suggestion for your Harry Potter closet though... If I remember correctly, with hot mess house, didn't you help a family that had like the tiniest closet be able to have some roll out shelving? I'm just wondering if you were able to get one of those Sullivan metal shelving units on casters that could fit in the doorway of that closet. You could stack all your stuff onto it and simply wheel it out all in one fell swoop in order to access what's in the back. Hope that helps. :-) Keep up the awesome lady!

      I kind of disagree as we just buy more stuff to fill up the extra space when we move to a bigger home if we aren't strict with ourselves and only buy what we need and not everything we want.. I had to learn to organise the space I had rather than the one I used to have. From 2200 sq ft to a small apartment! IMO Clutterbug's house is huge but I bet she could get rid of tons of stuff if she had to downsize. You can't have stuff that would fill a larger space when you live in a small space you just have to get rid of stuff, oh and not hire a storage space lol

      @@Angora573 I understand that, if you have a lot of extra space, it can easily get filled up, but when your house doesn't have a mud room, a pantry, a linen closet, an office, a storage area, only has one tiny closet in each bedroom, no room for a dressers... the only thing you can do is stack your stuff in totes wherever you can find room. With only 2 cupboards in the entire kitchen, there's only enough room for dishes and I bake and cook everything from scratch (food allergies, so I have no choice) so pots and pans get stored in the oven. And working from home when the small living room is the office and the playroom... literally everything can be cleaned up and in totes, but it still looks cluttered because I'm an artist and my hubby also works from home. Canvases just can't be put away because there is no where big enough to store them. Under the bed would be the only place, but that's where winter coats go. We have minimized to the point where it is so inconvenient because we constantly have to borrow things from my mom that we got rid of because of lack of space. I can't get myself to get rid of the kids toys either while they are still being played with daily. I know some people just don't have toys and take their kids to the park instead, but I have severe allergies and can't leave the house for more than a few minutes so I'm in here almost 24/7... I really think a bigger house would make a big difference, even if just so I could have closets or room for dressers or a pantry so I don't have to keep food in boxes in the hall... We could probably put a shelf in the hall, but I don't think that that's safe (narrow hall) and, right now, when company comes over, all our totes, boxes, and bins around the house can just get put on our beds so the living area is tidy looking.
      A bigger house would make a huge difference because there's only so much that you can realistically get rid of and still have a life.

      I am an artist too, and I bought an antique children’s wardrobe for my canvases. It took me ages to find the right solution, but this one is totally open inside so it works. By the way, I have to say I agree with you. My house isn’t small by Australian standards but we don’t have a lot of the things you mention either. Love Cass’s home!

    Thank you so much for always being you. I think it is funny that I have been with you since the Malitose79 days and I never get tired of watching you.
    2 things you taught me that have really changed my life and that have helped me keep my home tidy; are to store things where you use them which also makes it extremely easy to put things away. The second thing that really helps me is to put things away where I would look for the item first if the item were lost. Before you helped me realize I was a ladybug, I thought I was a hot mess but what you taught me was that if I am constantly losing things (which I was) because of homeless clutter, move it to where you would have looked for it. If something needs to be relocated to make room for something else, just do it as long as it is near where you use the item most often. I never lose anything now because everything has a designated place.
    FYI, (for me at least) I have discovered that if I take the time to make a label for the item, I am much more likely to remember where it is located.

I made the children a cube organizer one year and within a few months they'd stood on it to reach things behind it (why? No idea) and broken the little shelves. So cube organizers are great if you don't have preteens who see them as a ladder! This is why we don't have nice things

He was a really neat person, always picking up. He loved to clean. Me? Not so much. Well, not at all. I am living in his house and I have struggled with feeling bad about how messy it is. Your video has been really helpful. I am a stuff person. I have struggled with getting rid of stuff. I think, "But I might need that" or "But that was my grandmother's" But, I have recognized that I have to get rid of stuff. I have taken a huge amount of stuff to the Goodwill.

My living room (about the 1/4 size of your family room) has to house a sofa, dining room table and computer center, tv and a cricket (which is on a rolling cart currently blocking my bedroom closet so we could put up our Christmas tree). I would love to find an organizing channel that realistically deals with apartment living (which millions of people live in). Don't get me wrong, I love my little apartment because it allowed me to be able to quit my job and homeschool my daughter for 11 years and the money we save will make it possible for us to get her through college without her being saddled with student loans. I would love to be more organized and have a tidier home but it's practically impossible in such a small place without getting rid of 75% of our every day items.

    First of all, your home is Pinterest worthy. It’s beautiful. It’s a testament to having limits to what you will accept and the furniture, rules and routines set up to make that happen.
    Second I’m going to be tough. You need to pull yourself up over the master bathroom. Apart from the health hazard of dank, wet towels, etc collecting mold and other yucky 🤢 stuff, both you and your husband are worth more than that. Who are you to start and end his day with stress? You don’t do it to anyone else. That is your priority. It’s a shared space and must be treated that way. Your space, do what you like. Shared space - the sharees have no business leaving a mess for whoever follows them. Even when you are next behind yourself don’t you prefer a calm space? I know, it’s none of my business but what is it you’ve said about people expecting miracles? All the best.

    Hi Cas. My 8yo son's room is like a bomb went off after it was trampled my angry elephants. He has ADHD and a really small room. We do have a rec room where toys will eventually go, but for now, it is his room. He doesn't have a traditional closet. He has built in closets (one side has 2 clothing rods, and the other has one clothing rod and then shelves, some of which are super narrow) with a built in desk in between. He never puts books away either, so I opted for wooden crates under his dresser thinking that would be easier for him. It has not been. He does not put anything away and pretty much refuses to because he isn't finished with it. I know you cant help me there, but any suggestions on working with his built ins would be awesome. Maybe a video of ideas for organization for ADHD kids but for tiny rooms. Lol. Love your house btw.

    I have had "purchase cube shelf" on my to do list for my room FOREVER and still don't have them. P.s. I am going to cut a freaking hole in the bathroom floor to send stuff down to the laundry room in the basement 🙃 laundry shoot. My husband doesn't think so....just like he didn't think we'd have a dishwasher. He is wrong 😁

    Cass, I have been learning from you for years. Thank you for sharing your gift with us! I am looking at that chair in your bedroom, and thinking, “would any vertical storage for bathroom items work there?” See? You’re contagious!! You are AMAZEBALLS ❤️
