"I eat broccoli!" Their daughter is the cutest ever. Glad you were able to find something that works for them. :)

Lovely family. Loved that the father was so involved to 🤗.

Cas has done SO much more for me than just helping me find yet another organization technique, she has shown me that: I'm not broken, I'm not less than, I'm not stupid, I'm not just undisciplined,and I'm not a failure because my home isn't Pinterest worthy! THANK YOU Cas❤️ you are truly something special, indeed 🤗

Its confirmed. I have the organization skills of a 5 year old! Butterfly here😊. Thanks for a terrifc video!

I'm loving these online consultation videos!

My moms rule was ALWAYS to put away toys before we could do something else and it has served me well into adulthood (crafting, different hobbies, cleaning'cooking, and even batching tasks at work

Great job Kevin, Alicia and Amelie! You made everything so visually appealing AND functional. "I eat broccoli" was priceless, she is so cute! Enjoy your space! Thanks for another inspiring video, Cas!

Their wine collection was impressive!

I love how you incorporated the little girls ideas about how to organized her art supplies.

That one dislike is a person that had a cube shelf fall on them like they were the Wicked Witch of the West 😂

My kids' grade two teacher told me from her experience with her own kids, you can easily curate your kids art and writing if you only keep the pieces that are related to who they are at any given age. So family portraits or writing about their likes/etc. Her own children went through years of work and only reacted to those items. I have done that over the years and it still holds true for us going into high school. I found it an easy rule for curating. :)

Another great idea is instead of throwing away some of the childrens art work is to send some to aunts/uncles, grandparents or special people in their life. I loved getting things from my sister when the kids were smaller and I also think that if I get rid of it down the line, it's not so final on their end!

I love letting Amelie set the organization.

What a cute family! I love how honest and receptive they are to the process and grateful for the results!

I was NOT prepared for the "I eat broccoli" and that sweet little voice!🤣 I laughed so hard at that! I'm not even the biggest fan of kids but that little girl was too cute!!!

I love this family! They seem so genuine and warm. :)

I love this! I don't know why I never thought about designating a time in the daily routine just for cleaning up. It makes so much more sense! I was wondering if you had any tips or ideas for military families or anyone else that moves often. You always say to organize for the space you have, but that space we have changes every few years! And we don't always know ahead of time what the house looks like. Organizing our stuff is a frustrating cycle. Can we bring organization with us somehow? Also, your quiz was fun! I'm a butterfly!

Where was this when my kids where younger??? My kids could never keep their playroom clean and I always wondered what the issue was. Thank you Cas for these videos of actual families in their homes!

I am totally a children's artwork hoarder! I got these frames that I could just place the art in over and over. The idea of thinking, "I don't have to throw this out today" and the house not looking junky-win. It helped me pick favorites out later in the year which sometimes moved to permanent frames. Even though I have kids graduating from high school now, my house is still filled with their art, our favorite pieces, but in proper frames. Another way I calmed my nerve was to allow the kids to choose their art to gift through the year. We make cards mostly. That way we could feel good about "getting rid" of art. Only the favorite favorites survived past a year of holidays, 'I'm thinking of you' Grandma & Grandpa or 'Get well soon' notes. My kids learned how good it felt to give their things away, that it was OK to really live something and still gift it. That's a really hard lesson for sentimental types. Another plus, as a working mom, personal gifts were already made for the exception of writing their name and a quick message; it saved money and people loved the personal stuff. If it ended up in the trash, at least we didn't have to deal with that part. Lol My favorite reminder & strategy on this video was disciplining myself to do a 5 min tidy & doing the labels for non readers. I love labels but if you have non readers, it is more difficult. A reminder that pictures can work is like...👆💡DING!... why didn't I think of that. Lol

5min tidy up through the day is what I need too 😇

Yes I agree with others. I really loved this precious family, I dont know why. But their honest and interaction with you kept me watching the video even though I don't have kids at home. Very cute!!

It is so refreshing to see the room after everything is macro-organized. And I learned that I would benefit from more than one clean up time in the day - to practice putting things away. Thanks!

I love how the family gets involved with organizating there home and making it kid friendly

OMG, that little girl is just the cutest! So precious!

Om gosh that little girl is so cute! Love how the room looks!👍👏 That was really nice that her daddy was also involved in this make over room.

Great to see a dad totally engaged and on board!

They are so grateful! Love them!

What a fun family! Did that even feel like work? Cas enjoyed that cute little girl, and I love the way she had her help with labeling. That helped her process the new way things were going to work. Great job!!!

Butterflies for the win! Green is totally your color, Cas!

Love the draws with labels! I use the black drawer units to separate my tools, tape, batteries, glues, etc. and label the drawers with painters tape and black marker. Different stages of life prompt me to try new ways of decluttering and organizing. Great videos Cas!

Awe, I ❤️ this little family. I hope that they're doing good.

I love these virtual consultations!

Love you every time Cas! Great job helping this family. We r all a mess since last year but with your help it can get better. Thanks for all you do. Hope all is well w you and your family...

We love the caddies too. We have 4: coloring, painting, playdoh, craft. Have fun tomorrow!

Amelie is so is the cutest ever. Yes, having her involved in the organizing was brilliant. Now it makes it her program and she will maintain it better.

Their Wine Collections Is Lovely....

What a sweet family. So happy that you could guide them to a more organized room. Amali is adorable p, I could watch her forever! TFS.

So exciting!!! 😁👏❤️ I get so excited to see your new videos! 🥰

Cas, you are awesome!! I love your ideas and your energy. The course is great. I'm so glad I gave it to myself as a present.

Ahh! Yes!!! This is so so so very relatable! I have five year old twins and we are in this same situation! Thank you!

she's moving on and the poor guy is STILL talking about the caddies! haha

I agree about helping your children learn how to be selective with what they keep. As far as artwork or other collections, a great thing to do is to take photos of anything the child and parent have decided to let go is to take pictures of them. It works especially good if the child can make groupings first. Also, some artwork could be folded and sent as s greeting card to grandparents or other loved ones.

You are looking fabulous today.. the lipstick shade is great.. love the tip of involving kids in labeling.

Your "bug" system has helped me so much. i tried so many others with no success but, now I feel I am pretty good at organizing. Slowly I am getting my house in shape and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have anxiety and chaos triggers it. My house is calm and visually appealing.

This is fantastic! I sent to my son and daughter-in-law. Great solutions.

Wow Cas is it trendy, only 1 more K to go to have half a million subscribers. 😍🤩

Yes, hard to put away if has a lid too, I am visual, but need quick and easy systems too. I am more a macro-organizer too. So relating to this video.

Just now heard about this so missed it. 😢 I love how you pulled in the child to organize. And time frames.

What a lovely family. I rather wish I knew them. :) And such helpful advice from Cas!

Great organising. Well done to all of you. I totally agree about clear containers. I find that when they’re inside a cupboard I’m OK with them but if I try to organise things outside of a cupboard they really stress me out. I’m much better with solid containers. I bought a couple of yellow ones from a shop in the UK & they really brighten my lounge up.

Cas, I love you. I swear you are talking to me all the time. It’s like you know me better than I know myself 😆

This was wonderful

Looking forward to the all day declutter!!

I am a ladybug but I think that I might be more cricket than ladybug.. I share a house with my mom and she is a pure ladybug. I had to amend our systems to allow her to quickly see, access and put things away. The cricket in me sort things afterwards, but it keeps things organised and calm at home. I read a book on clutter and the author said that things should be easier to pack away than to take out. My brothers’ children would visit and watch dvds and afterwards I spent ages to alphabetise it again. I just decided that they can search for it and I just make sure the dvds are in the correct boxes and packed away. It made my life much easier.

Love what you did in this space, great ideas!!!!

The sweetest video ever! Also much much needed on my end!

What a great transformation for this adorable family! Thanks for sharing this process, Cas!! Hugs...

That is so encouraging! I always wanted to be a cricket (everything micro-organized, neat and tidy), thought I'm probably a ladybug (because seeing clutter stresses me out) but now I think I might actually be a butterfly, because I store almost everything in large categories or out where I can see and quickly grab it. And I'm definitely ok with that, because butterflies are my favorite animal! I'll definitely take inspiration from this for the next time I get a chance to reorganize my stuff :)

Can’t wait to see what you recommend! 💙💛

I am a professional artist- I do not keep all my artwork. I throw lots away, and that’s because it isn’t all masterpieces. Some are just practice, some don’t turn out like I want and are just learning. If I kept everything, I wouldn’t be able to move in my studio and I wouldn’t be able to sell it all. This helps me with my kid’s artwork, as not every piece of theirs is masterworks either. Don’t feel bad about throwing away their work. It’s all a part of the learning process!

I discovered pipe cleaners fit into celery Tupperware bins!

I was watching HGTV the other day, and up came a commercial for your show!!! Can't wait to see your show!!! :D

Wow! 💕Just noticed your subs number is up to 500k! 🙌🏼💐

Omg they are such a sweet family and so encouraging!! Theyve got the next dali right there 😁

Been loving these videos Cass!

Love it! Sweet family.

7:49 Cas you look so beautiful. Beautiful inside & out!

Great improvement!

Wonderful video. Such a lovely family as well. Have a great weekend Cas. Blessings-Judith 🎵🎭

As always, you're as sweet as pie 😇❤

We have a bin under the couch that is filled with a felt, Pom Pom, & pipe cleaner scramble :) that’s what works with 4 kids ages 4-12 😬

I eat broccoli too!! 😆

Great video!

I love this video which has given me ideas for my girls room. But my son is diagnosed autism spectrum disorder and he takes all the bins and dumps them out. And I personally can't get him to help clean up that mess without a melts down. Do you have any recommendations for this?

Well now I want chocolate cake...

If you have the clear bins ,instead of buying new bins use some craft or wrapping paper and diy over the front or inside so they all look the same.

So good!

To save money the clear bins could they have a paper on the front which the child drew/painted or coloured of the items that belong into the bins?

Hi Cas. As much as I would like to have a Cricut Joy, I have no idea how to "tag" anyone using Instagram or FaceBook. I am not on either one. If I set up an account, how do I go about "tagging" someone? Thank you, Shelly

Hi Cas, 😣😞😔 oh noooo I don't have ANY SOCIAL MEDIA and I want one sooo bad ! I've been wanting to get myself a Cricut for YEARS but until I clear my table I refuse to buy it but FREE is awesome lol 😊. Also where exactly is the all day decluttering happening ??? If SOCIAL MEDIA I'll have to miss it.

Are we sure that mom and dad are butterflies?

What was the name of those cubbies? The key is everyone picking up after themselves!! "Many hands make for light work."

Cute family. :-)

Thanks.... I feel like us butterflies have it rough. 😉🦋

When a child has a place to put things back it teaches them organization ...Which will help them as they grow to organize to complete tasks and projects for school.

Thanks for sharing.

Awesome 😎

Thank you for sharing. Would small containers in larger one?

Don't understand which post to tag someone in once I get to facebook?!

💕

What is a callex?

To me; I see too much . Kept in the room. Size.

Cas, kindly stop calling us guys. We aren’t.
