      Kudos for the Video! Forgive me for chiming in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Mahorrla Control Clutter Method (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a smashing one of a kind product for decluttering your home minus the hard work. Ive heard some decent things about it and my good mate called Gray after many years got astronomical success with it.

    • @ileardgz7691
      @ileardgz7691 Před 3 lety

      Excellent video content! Forgive me for butting in, I would love your thoughts. Have you ever tried - Mahorrla Bringback Her Method (do a search on google)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for getting your ex back fast minus the hard work. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my cousin got cool results with it.

    @HowToGYST Před 4 lety +3

    As soon as I get medication I take a Sharpie and write it on the box or bottle in big numbers. That way I can always see at a glance if something has expired rather than going hunting or squinting for the date. 🙂

    I like the transparancy that you used here. We all need to organize again from time to time because we do not maintain things like they should. Good vid!

  • @KaysonMayhew
    @KaysonMayhew Před 4 lety +18

    Having no space, I completely understand the “random” items in the random areas haha. We gotta get creative when there isn’t enough space haha.

  • @TessaOswin
    @TessaOswin Před 4 lety +6

    I definitely agree you don’t need to buy loads of stuff for organizing. you could use shoe box covered in paper and shoe box lids lined with paper as draw organizers. They are much cheaper, great to work out how you want to use a space and for area inside cupboards if you take time to cover them they will look perfectly nice.

  • @merlinpeter2910
    @merlinpeter2910 Před 4 lety +7

    I loved your perspective on organization. I tend to always focus on having designated spaces for things, but I have to learn to let go when there isn't much space. It's so difficult, but seeing you do it makes me feel like I can give in a little!
    Your videos always bring a smile on my face! Have a great weekend Caitlin! ❤️

    With ikea they're give you replacement parts for stuff. You can go to an ikea and ask at the return desk to get one shelf and the pins to hold it up and they'll give you one for free and ship it to you if they don't have it in the store

    This makes me excited to tackle my desk once again! I have the same problem with storage space though, so I should figure that out first before I enthusiastically lay everything out on the floor to rearrange

    I have a tiny desk and, utility cart, and small bookcase in a corner of my bedroom as a home office. I do keep vitamins and allergy meds on my desk, so I remember to take them in the morning. I keep hand cream there as well.
    I'm not a youtuber, so I don't have camera equipment. And I gave my laptop to my daughter, so a tiny desk works for me.

    I picked up some pointers from this video especially using the coloured boxes and your display on the shelves above the laptop. I would recommend using a desk pad under the laptop, large enough to hold your coffee cup and mouse. P.S. I loved seeing The Sun and Her Flowers book on display.

    go to home depot and have them cut you a " shelf". you can paint it later. The dots in your cabinets are to insert little clips ( that home depot sells too $2) that will support the shelf with those clips.

Nevertheless, I enjoy all your videos; even the ones from two or three years ago.

      Nissi Onafowokan, I have never commented on CZcams, or any social media for that matter, before, but I really feel as though I have to tell you this.
      This may seem silly, but somehow I feel like you are going through a lot, whether you feel it or not, and I know that you are going to get through whatever it is, you are going to come back even better that before. Just relax, look after yourself and do whatever makes you happy. I hope you know that you are loved! ❤️

    @MyEverydayBeauty Před 4 lety

    Hi. I place artificial light (lamps) opposite to natural light (window) to create a balance. Also, for your shelves on top of the PC, placing the bigger frames/items on the higher shelf & the smaller items on the lower shelf creates a visual balance. Different sized items on the same shelf can confuse the eye, you wouldn't know what to look at & nothing stands out. But that's just me 😊

    Im curious in knowing if youve had trouble with yours?
