I’m 72 and finally have a housecleaner once a month. Should have done it a long time ago. Its worth every penny and get over feeling guilty.
Be kind to yourself your house looks grand… just take a few deep breaths and be proud of yourself x
What a great way to treat yourself. ❤
Amazing way to treat yourself 😍❤️
I always think that all work is honorable, be you a cleaner or a brain surgeon. We couldn’t live without our cleaner, she’s part of the family.
I did house cleaning for 40 years…loved it
People nowadays have busy lives, i am a house cleaner and have a range of clients, mums that work from home with kiddies , older people who need help keeping their homes tidy, Never be embarrassed to ask for help, be it a cleaner or asking a friend to help,, true friends will always be there for you.🧡🧡🧡🧡
Thank you for this 😊❤️
I'm a domestic cleaner too. I thought all of my clients would be super rich, and the cleaning would be a luxury. Absolutely not the case. I work for 'normal' people. But they are at full stretch with work, family and handling other responsibilities or health issues. It's a privilege to help them out and they allow me to pay my bills. Win win. If you can afford it (and not all can I accept that), get a cleaner and get it off your to do list. You are busy and your time is precious x
Enjoying your thought processes.Great to see the background cleaning to a home photo shoot! Home is an atmosphere you can feel peaceful and secure in. Colours, textures, scents, space to dream x
Your work is so appreciated ❤️ thank you for this x
Dear Catherine! 300K Yeah !!🎉I strongly echo your viewers comment on what your subscriber counts stands for: Lots of people finding joy in your videos. You show us the pretty and keep it real. Your videos are such a breath off fresh air. Yes,your cats are adorable,but watching you accomplish ever new and bigger projects, gaining new insights and skills, and sharing your challenges. I am not the only one delighted in your stories, crafty projects and creative gardening. Watching you become a published author, soon twice over👏, overcome your nerves presenting on Telli.
Watching your beautiful videos over the last several years have brought smiles to my face and joy in my heart.
Please celebrate your milestone and feel pride in your hard work.
We out here watching are celebrating happily your well deserved success!
❤❤❤🎊🎊🎊🌼💮🌻🦔
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
There' s nothing else to be added. You Hit the nail on the head. I agree 100%.❤
@@martinalenz5029 Ditto! You said it perfectly!
I totally agree. Congratulations Catherine 🎊 👏 💐
🥹 thank you for such kind words ❤️
Ditto, this is exactly why we all watch you Catherine 💕
I'd feel bad asking my friends for help cleaning my house, but I'd be more than happy to help out a friend to clean their house 😂 It makes no sense! 😂😂
A little ray of Irish sunshine! Cheeky thumbs up Dear Catherine! 🌞🌞🌞🌞
Awww thanks so much 😍
Looooooooooooooòved this long video
Your house is just beautiful.
It's so nice to see you do normal things.
Very honest, love it.
It's lovely to watch your little cats follow you around the house.😊
They’re my little shadows 🥹
Growing up in a large family always meant hand me downs. Not just in clothes either. We had a lot of mismatched stuff but we called it eclectic. I find myself liking the old/used over new. I still have and use my mom's dresser from when she was a girl and my grandma's bedroom furniture. As for cleaning, I find it relaxing to do house work. It takes me back to the days spending time with the grandparents. Thank you for sharing your humbleness and energy. ❤❤
That’s so sweet 🥹 yeah I’m totally with you. There’s something special about pre loved furniture especially when it’s been in the family like yours! They sound like lovely pieces! Thanks for sharing Katherine ❤️
Catherine I've been watching you since you used to sell at craft fairs. 🙂 I'm one of you older (age wise) subs. I love following and learning from all your projects and travels. The very last thing I want to see these days is yet another carbon copy seasonal decor "haul" where the home ends up looking like a store display and the presentations are really commercials. Your home, your projects, your travels, and even your fashion reflect your personal style. I want to see beauty, gardening, unique style, and useful techniques from a woman who follows her own creativity and interests, and lives in a house that looks like an actual home she shares with her fur babies. That's exactly why I follow your channel! You are one of a kind and I love seeing glimpses of Ireland. Ireland is tops on my list for next time over the pond! Snowy greetings from the Rockies! ❄☃🌨 p.s. Happy you got a reprieve on your photo shoot! Whew!
I agree! Catherine, stay who you are. You are a blessing!
☺️ thank you for this ❤️ your support is really appreciated and doesn’t go unnoticed 🙏🏼
How wonderfully said! That's exactly why I love being a Dainty member! She keeps it real and uplifting and inspiring all at the same time! She's not afraid to grow and evolve too.
Dear Catherine, I just love your videos…I feel like I am spending time with a dear, sweet friend…I love how real you are ❤️
Glad your house gets dirty - and then clean again 😊 The more time you add to each video, the more I like it. You have a wonderful way of making mundane chores less painful and more meaningful. Thank you for the longer format.
We’re all in the mundane chores together!! Thanks for stopping by ❤️
Whew! I am SO relieved that your home keeping is SO normal. I'm always amused at CZcamsrs who show their homes prior to a cleaning spree. Just like you, they use sentences like "my house is upside down", "I know the mess is bad". Those of us watching can feel you wincing as you show the evidence of your busy life in each room. The truth is, every one of us watching have messy spaces and living areas in our homes that need tidying, organising, decluttering and deep cleaning.
I'm a commercial cleaner in a food production plant in New Zealand. It goes without saying the expectations on sanitation in a food production plant and the detail cleaning we do is mental.
Do you think after a 10 hour day I'm going to come home and apply the same energy cleaning my own house? No. The reality is, when I come home, I get out of the car like an animated robot because my body is seized up - I hobble my way into the house where my hubby has a cuppa waiting, and I plonk my backside on the seat at the table and watch CZcams channels to distract my mind from the throbbing aches in all of my joints. My house is desperate for a deep clean and organising but I cannot bring myself to do it on my two days off a week. I need that 2 day break from cleaning - my body needs it! When I get a decent break from work I will get onto these tasks at home, but until then my wonderful hubby and I will hold our home together with general daily house keeping.
So do not worry about what people think. You are perfect, darling - perfectly normal 😊
Thank you for sharing this, and for all that you do!
I can relate! I’m 64 and after work I’m in too much back pain to do much of anything.
Your videos warm my heart every week and I look forward to seeing you doing things, gardening, crafting and renovating furniture. I hope the interview and pic shoot goes well.
🥰 thank you x x x
I love the longer videos. I've learnt over the years that there is more to life than house work, but I still feel more relaxed in a clean and tidy house😊
Congrats on 300,000 subscribers🎉🎉🎉 glad to be one of them!!!
Love yr energy i miss mine at 70 with fybromyalgia so one room at a time love yr house and all the lovely things u have done congrats Catherine
Praying wellness and pain free days for you I truly know how you feel.❤
Thank you so much I wish you the very best
@@mariancornelia4538…one room at a time is still an achievement, you’re doing great! 😊
You’re doing amazing!! One room a time is a massive accomplishment 😍
I love the way you've decorated your home, and your cats are darling.🕊️🌺
You have made your house into a lovely home. Just love it So cosy too. 🏡
Love how the Universe helped with your overbooked Monday.😊
Whatever you put out, I will watch it. I do like the longer videos. But you do you, boo!
Well done 👏 for sharing this. A lot of people would have got a cleaner in to do all that hard work. Your house is a home and and an interior design inspiration to your viewers- it’s worthy of being photographed your work being celebrated.
Make sure you look after yourself too - you got this 💪
CONGRATULATIONS CATHERINE ON 300k subscribers!❤🎉😊. CELEBRATE HOW MANY OF US CAN TRAVEL AND LEARN FROM YOU AND ABOUT IRELAND. YOUR A SPECIAL PERSON TO ALL OF US. KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB OF SHARING WITH US. LOVE YOU AND YOUR CATS❤. ALOHA ALL THE WAY FROM HAWAII
I love your channel. You might be surprised by how much we look forward to each & every post! Xo
Stay true to yourself only. You are perfect.
Hey Catherine, I hear you about asking for help, have just finished 18 months of treatment and needed help but could not bring myself to ask... got into a awful mess at times, but did what I could when I could and still finding my feet again... your home is your home, you share what you like to share and it is all very lovely and I love how helpful your cats are when your cleaning... hope all goes well with your photo shoot!!!!
Being kind to yourself is my motto these days x
Goodness! It’s always more fun to clean someone else’s home! Just be willing to reciprocate! That is the BEST!
You are very inspirational and I love your honesty. Thank you!
I’m the same I feel like I’m bothering friends. So your not alone. I grew up in the same way no waste, recycle, and do what you can with what you have. Growing up like that I feel it made us strong and resilient! ❤
Absolutely!! Lots of things learned ❤️
Always enjoy your videos. My hubby is from Roscommon and we enjoy seeing what is happening in Ireland🍀🍀🍀 Happy St Patrick Day and congrats on your milestone
Happy St Patrick’s day to you too! ☘️❤️
I’ve been watching you for years and enjoying it. Your style has grown and changed, but you still inspire me. Enjoy your accomplishment you worked hard for it. And try not to burn yourself out it’s important to take care of yourself ❤
Thanks so much! That’s so sweet of you ❤️
In the guestroom, I do like the new bedding, but I love the old bedding. For the photo shoott, I suggest replacing the faux flowers in the pitcher with fresh flowers and placing a cute vintage lap on top of one of the dressers.🥰😚
Your kitty cats....I could watch 45 minutes of just them. 😊
I do not have a problem with comparison. When I watch videos. I am happy having my own style in my home. I get many compliments on how lovely and cozy my little home looks. I have learned contentment in my life. ❤
You do have a beautiful home!
Sounds like you’ve a gorgeous home Joyce ❤️😍
I love the long videos because it’s nice to see what you are doing all at once! You are so refreshing to watch and you bring so much joy to our lives, thank you for all you do and keep the videos coming☺️
Thanks so much for the feedback ☺️❤️
The kitties playing on the bed made my heart happy. That made my day!!
They are pure joy 🥹
Oh, Catherine! I can so relate! If I could afford to pay a housekeeper, I know I'd have to clean the house before she came in so I wouldn't be embarrassed. And I'm a bit of a control freak around my own home, so I'm sure things wouldn't get done to my liking. Lol
Yes, yes, one long one. Those who want shorter may choose to watch it in 2 sittings. Excited for your photo shoot😊
Your house is so pretty. Now look, you’ve gotten a deep clean out of the way and when the shoot is over, all there’ll be to do is relax and enjoy it. As far as paying someone to clean, my feeling is you are helping the local economy by giving work to someone who does that for a living. In regards to the length of videos, I enjoy one longer video per week as opposed to two shorter ones.
I did enjoy seeing your home a tiny bit messy 😂
Your always doing fun things and you do live there. ❤🌴🤠
Girl congratulations on the subs. 🎉
Really enjoy the longer videos, easy to pause and catch up again if needed ❤
My mother was the worlds worst homemaker. Cleaning is a happy place for me! Everything she hated I enjoy! I need the peace that control over chaos provides me. Thanks for the chat!jd
Your cats are so funny,their heads going back and forth cracked me up,it was like they were watching a tennis match! I need to do a big clean now with windows and also trying to set my garage up as a craft area,nightmare at the moment and my bunny sleeps in there and has a playground so it going to be tough 😂😂😂
I clean for 2 families past 4 yrs and it doesn't feel like I'm at work, they're like family now ❤
Congratulations Catherine love all of your videos been watching your channel for many years I’m 80 now and I ❤❤❤ your channel you have the sweetest personality and your very talented
Aww thanks so much Barbara that means the world to me! Thanks for the continued support ❤️
Love these cleans because it also shows what it takes to upkeep your home. Magazines never talk about how hard the spaces are to maintain.
Also i would 100% help my friends clean. I feel more connected to the people I do mundane things with. Get in buddy we're buying SHAMPOO and TOILET PAPER
Catherine- I enjoy both the shorter and longer videos. Whatever works best for you-I will watch! Your videos are always great- I love your personality ! As always ...cheeky thumbs up !
Comparison is the thief of joy! Love your content Catherine.
❤❤❤
So true ❤️
I absolutely love your home! Really enjoy your vlogs, thank you ❤
You do a fabulous job Catherine. Have a cleaner once a month as a treat my love
Yessss Catherine you did it girl....Huge Congratulations on hitting 300k subs.
Thank you for always being you my lovely.
You are such an inspiration to many of us your a phemonmel mummy to BB's & still are to Both Blondie & Pepsi there just keeping an eye on their mummy from 🌈 Bridge & their lil siblings.
Remember how loved you are Catherine & how far you have come.
I am super proud of everything you do.
Your our lil Ray of 🌞 & such a breathe of fresh air for many.
Remember ❤ IS always the answer,if your capable of both receiving & giving of ❤ you are one the richest cz ❤ is everything 👩 😻 😻 😻 😻 💐 🎉xx
Love watching your videos Catherine. Wish I had your crafting skills. I took up crochet during the pandemic and my grandchildren love what I make for them so feel quite proud of that. Also, thanks to your inspiration, I finally upcycled my old 70’s dark unit in my dining room. Everyone has commented on how lovely it looks now so thank you 😊
Oh wow your unit sounds stunning! Delighted I could share some inspo, I’m sure it turned out fab 😍
So enjoyed this video of just hanging out with you. Your cats may not jump up on the mantle now, but they're waiting for you to set some freshly-potted dirt with pretty flowers there for them. 🐱🐾🪴
I've said this before but your home is my ideal home. We just bought a 1/4 acre lot across the country and when we sell this boat we will be moving/building a 600sq foot with a full basement. You have given me so, so many ideas for decorating and gardening and I appreciate your channel so much! Thanks, Catherine!!
What are you using to clean the arms of you sofa with? As for helping with Spring cleaning I always wondered if a group of friend could get together at one house a weekend and clean all of it at once and then move to the next friend's. Amish barn raising came to mind. That way, you can socialize, have a glass of wine at the end and each person tackles top to bottom 1 room. And as you go each person gets a Spring clean!
Wonderful idea, need a little help now and again 😊
We sure do and in the past people did. We need to find ourselves in more community. @@misscharlotte5075
I love watching your videos makes me feel calm❤
Catherine, you have got this! Your house looks lovely even with questionable skirting boards. I am excited to see your guest room re-do. I enjoy whatever videos you put out.
🇨🇦❤️ I love the longer videos because they’re perfect for a nice long break and that means I can relax and recharge before my next task.
I’ve always referred to a quick or partial tidy as a “lick and a promise” and I’ve never heard the phrase “cats lick” before.
I love watching your cats whether they’re quiet or carousing.
Thanks for all your great content and I hope you keep your stress level down by not worrying about your viewers too much. I believe that we’re happy with what you share and we hope you can continue until you’re a little old lady. 😄
I grew up poor, mum cleaned for other people, so i feel the same. Now, i have a huge aversion to paying anyone to do something i can do myself. I will pay someone to do my lawn if my health doesn't permit me, but noone can clean to my standards, so even if I'm sick i will just wait til I'm better to do it. I do a little bit every day per the Flylady system 😊
Loved those pots when I noticed them on your table. Subtle and rustic. You have great taste! ❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Your house is a home and is beautiful ❤
Thank you for the honest chat! A reminder, of the reality of our lives and the importance of maintaining a balance. I very much have the same mindset as you. I have a hard time asking for help and feel having someone else cleaning my house is an extravagance. I also feel I should be able to keep everything going on my own ... home, garden, dogs, cats, chickens and horses! Thank God they are not all in the house. LOL 🤣 Love your content. Thank you for keeping it honest and real! 🌹🌈❤🤗🪴🏠🍀
Love the longer ones.
Congratulations on the 300K!!! Love to watch your journey!
I love a longer video! You keep me company while crafting💚
When we were selling our house, the stress of keeping the place spotless for viewings was almost overwhelming,so I completely get how you’re feeling! But it is satisfying to sit in your home knowing it’s spotless! I’m sure the photographer will do some staging? Your pink sofa is gorgeous!
That’s soo stressful I can only imagine!
Your house is beautiful and clean! Nice to see the little furry helpers absolutely everywhere you're trying to work. Lol. Happy Saint Patrick's Day! 🍀
I love how relatable you are!! And I adore your lovely home (whether tidy or not)! And I am inspired by your craftiness and garden!!!
Hi dear Catherine 👋😊 THANK YOU very much for the wonderful video. I'm sorry that I couldn't make it until today. congratulations on the beautiful 🤗300,000🎊 I wish you very much. You deserve it. you are simply GREAT!!! Thank you for being. With love and respect Maťa from Slovakia 🇸🇰 💕💕💕☘️👩💼😺😺
I love your longer videos. I could just keep watching forever. So excited you did a cleaning and organizing video. They are my absolute favorite! It gets me motivated and inspired to clean my home and fall in love with it again.
Your cat watching you clean that window, lol 😻I love it! Such a cat thing to do!
😁
You, your house and your life are charming. Your home is inviting and inspires one to come over for a cuppa and a chat. You are lovely and genuine, and this is why the magazine is Catherine worthy❤
That is so kind, thank you xxx
Hi Catherine, your home, garden and cat's are lovely. Stop worrying if the magazine spots a speck of dust so be it ❤
Congratulations on achieving 300K Subscribers! Your creativity, hard work, kindness and interesting videos are the reason.♥️🦋
Happy St.Patrick's Day to you, Catherine, both Lil BB's 😻 😻 & all of your wonderful family my lovely ☘️ 🍻 🎉 💚 xxxx
I do prefer the long videos. Thank you so much for the cleaning motivation! Love your videos!
Fantastic job!
300K. Wow! I can see why though. I'm proud to say I've been with you since early in your CZcams career and have enjoyed every video as you've progressed & grown your channel. I remember when you hit 100k subscribers & didn't say a word. But yo0ur subscribers didn't let you off the hook & had their own little celebratory party in the chat. You've brought your adorable little home so far! So yeah, congrats to you for reaching 300k!
This is so sweet 🥹 it’s crazy to look back at that! I feel all the love always ❤️ thanks so much Zoe you’re an OG truly!!
A quote from one of my favorite movies--Kathleen reflecting on her emails with Joe: "I just want to say that all this nothing has meant more to me than so many somethings." What you do for us matters! Thank you!❤
@michellecohron I love this movie!!
This is beautiful 🥹❤️ thank you so much that means the world to me!!
Love the cat watching you clean the window 😊
haha, there always watching me xx
Your house is beautiful Catherine. I'm personally enjoy a range of length video, whatever suits what you are filming. I hope the photo shoot went well, love to you and the cats 😻 💪 🌼 🌱 🌺
My parents grew up in the Depression. They never lost the -keep it, it might be useful ' way of living it got instilled in we kids. We all have things we hang on to far too long.
Enjoyed your video.❤
I love- love the longer videos!!!😄
I love the longer videos! ❤
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉300k so deserved ❤❤❤❤
Love your beautiful home❤
Love the longer videos and your home
I love the longer videos ❤
You’re great Catherine 👍
I used to get Better Homes and Garden magazine and almost always felt like my house wasn’t good enough. I have not missed the magazine since my subscription was up. I love old houses. Your house has charm, solid doors, nice handles, nice trim around the windows and whatnot. You work with the nooks and crannies. If I saw your interior on a magazine it’d be one I’d grab to look at.
Congrats on 300k! I’ve been watching a few years now and one day will go back to video 1 to see all the content i missed.
Love your videos - the longer the better!
Love your pots for the bulbs ❤
I love the long videos. Please continue. ❤
Congratulations on 301K subscribers, wow! Your house is so cute! It is a job to deep clean when you have something special going on.
Love longer form video too. 😊😊
Love the longer videos! In house AND garden!
Instead of watching you clean I decided to clean my own house.
Love the longer videos and everything about your channel 😊
Congratulations Catherine ! love watching all your videos.
Love this sofas with the flowers on them. Also love the hand vacuum.
I love your videos and your doing a fabulous job!
300k?! That's amazing, well done!
