hey everyone it's morgan yates and i'm super excited for today's video because it is necessary
please take a look at the background we got mess everywhere i was recently sick so things got a
little messy then and then in the days trying to catch up on work and everything i was behind on
cleaning was just like the bottom of the priority list so i really need to clean up like surface
level wise in general anyways which is perfect for this video because i'm going to be doing
not only that where we'll have some like satisfying cleaning time lapses if you love those
there's going to be plenty but i also want to do like a proper spring cleaning like organizing
cleaning out like purging my closet i have a lot of organization to do i bought a bunch of those
exciting like organizer container contraptions to really do an organizational makeover of my fridge
and my bathrooms like all the mess under the sinks in there in those drawers what else
oh i have a exciting like kitchen diy i bought these like spice labels and like
matching little spice jars so that that can start to look really pretty so a lot's on the agenda i
guess first thing i'll give you a little overview of the downstairs because that is first up on the
to-do list i also i don't want to talk about these flowers i pride myself on making like
the cutest flower arrangements now include some examples so that we can actually believe that but
a bunch of my flowers were dying this was like a pretty pink arrangement several days ago and then
some friends brought me these orange flowers that i love i think they're so pretty um by themselves
but since the arrangement was looking scarce i just threw those in here but moving throughout
the house i have just like some packages i need to sort through not a ton of mess here really the
kitchen is the kicker here right now this has been where i've just been like throwing everything this
corner has become a hoarding zone for like clothes i've been ordering the sink this is bad i never
normally have dishes in the sink it's because i need to empty the dishwasher and haven't even
like had a second to do that other just trash or returns or i don't even know what i need to figure
out what i have over here and to try to make this a little bit more fun i thought i would dress up a
bit and be just in a comfy maxi i've been really into maxi dresses lately and i think they're
crumpier than sweat so here we are also before we kick things off downstairs i wanted to thank cvs
for partnering with me on this video specifically i wanted to share a little bit about their care
path membership and if you're not familiar with it basically you can join their care pass program for
only five dollars a month or 48 dollars for the entire year you also get your first month free
and as a care pass member you actually get a 10 rewards promo each month so the membership kind
of pays for itself but there are also some really great perks you get as a member that i love taking
advantage of i did for this video and for cleaning and i do frequently as i am running low on time
and that is that you get free one to two day shipping on eligible cvs items so i was running
low on some cleaning supplies picked up some of my favorite surface cleaner the mrs myers i picked up
some clorox wipes as well more for like bathroom cleaning i already opened these and got started
but just some of the swiffer duster cloths like the refill pack and i didn't just get cleaning
products i also picked up um like some collagen you guys know my allergies have been insane this
spring i've been struggling so i also just got um some of the cvs health brand allergy relief
medicine and another perk as a care pass member is that you actually get 20 off all cbs health and
lift better products that applies online and in stores so i got 20 off of this allergy medication
i also picked up some sunscreen because i'm about to be heading to the desert um so just some spf 50

these items are eligible for the free one to two day shipping that alone saves me so much time and
money and like not having to run to the store care bus members also get free same day prescription

monthly promo so i'm gonna have my link below you guys can join in store next time you're checking

first month free so thank you so much again to cvs for making my life so much easier so let's
just get started i'm gonna be using these items almost immediately and let's clean this place up
i don't know where i put my swiffer wand i guess this works just as well
all right probably like almost two hours later i don't really know i'm entering the
home stretch downstairs we've done everything i've dusted everything like vacuum straighten up
as much as possible did the baseboards pretty much everything now i'm going to swiffer out the floors
all right so ignoring the boxes over there here's where we're working with
much cleaner just finished mopping the floors um and then just need to do the final kitchen touches
my favorite time of day is like a couple hours before sunset when the sun is just coming through
next up we go upstairs all right so bringing this to the bedroom where i did not make my bed today
i typically do but i'm gonna make it up at 5 p.m right now and put away my laundry basically i just
have a bunch of clothes on the ground it's not anything too crazy and then my bathroom
products in there that i've been leaving on the counter so let's get this cleaned up
all right i'm going to do a little vacuum but
the room is clean just through my watching phone there so now we have a clean base for my room and
i'm feeling pretty good the rest of the house is clean so now it's time for the exciting like
organizational projects however it is the end of the day the sun is coming in it's like about to be
sunset and i'm gonna lose my lighting so i'm gonna pick this up tomorrow for spring cleaning day two
welcome to day two so first task for today picking it back up in my bedroom i'm gonna do a little
closet clean out not trying to be too extreme with this i'm not trying to act like a minimalist who's
cleaning out everything that like i haven't touched in the past month or whatever but
i do want to just like free up a little bit of room because certain areas in my closet
you know i'm running low on hangers certain areas are just a little tight and i know for
sure i have things that i just like do not wear do not need do not fit whatever i just have not
since we moved into this house in september like literally gone through much of anything
so i think that'll be good today so starting on this half of my closet so i have this two
of these same closets basically in my room so this one has like sweatshirts hoodies
down here it's like blazers dressier tops jackets and then like sweaters down here so let's see two
white sweatshirts like why and i don't even know which one to get rid of and the thing is
i wear neither of them i think i'm gonna go with cutting this one because it looks a little smaller
like shocking the stuff that i hold on to also sliding crazy i'm looking like a ghost this
jacket needs to go like way too small and fitted let's never bring that back and then it's like
teddy jacket nation out here apparently i have three that i have not worn i know i like this
one that's probably the only one i need to keep this one is a new now i can get rid
of these pants right off the bat they're like a knit stretchy pant hello sun and hello dust
i don't know where all that dust is from because i had already dusted this place top to bottom
what i just got a new pair of pants that are like longer than these that are basically the same like
a ribbed little stretchy pair the new ones are more flattering so bye-bye i feel like all of
these can go i have so many pairs of like leather that whole section about to go that pair is okay
all right here is what i landed on not the most not the least you know like i feel good this is
like a lot of stuff to clear out of my closet and i freed up some room some more hangers this
is like i don't know 25 to 30 things so things aren't quite as tight in the closet anymore so
i feel better about that and that is like the main thing i was wanting and freeing up more hangers so
closet clean out check so i thought it'd be really fun and cute to make all my spice jars look the
same like i see so many people do that and get just those like matching labels matching jars and
i ran with it i ordered the jars i have 30 i got like a little funnel to funnel the spices into the
jars and i ordered a custom set of spice labels like based on what i have here and what i thought
maybe i would ever purchase so yeah i was really excited to do that today and then i just went
looking everywhere and the labels are nowhere to be found like they weren't with the jars
i have searched everywhere in this kitchen every single place i can think of and i can't find it so
i'm like did they get thrown away so unfortunately we're going to be tabling the spice uh
organization project right now i'm just gonna do that in a vlog coming up on my vlog channel it's a
little bit later i've put my hair up i've changed my hair so many times today i'm actually about to
head out of town so i'm like shooting a bunch of things at the same time hence the ever-changing
look my travels are also a reason i've been like wanting to do a little spring clean you know
because i feel like the next like month or two of my life is just going to be chaos and i want
to come home feeling like great about my space so with that in mind you know i'm a little crunch for
times this is like a realistic spring cleaning video i feel like i'm not overhauling my entire
house so many tasks for right now that i'm also excited about throughout time i feel like i've
been buying these like an assortment of these like acrylic storage baskets like fridge organization
tools i will show you what i've done so far so i got a bunch of little acrylic bins and labeled
them with these little stickers so just like based on category because all my food has just
been like tucked away with no organization under these cabinets and this has been a game changer
of having these like easy to pull out bins that are labeled and everything can have a place this
side is looking a little rougher because i thought it'd be so cute to put things in jars and things
however it's like everything you put in these it doesn't fit perfectly like you got to have your
little restock sections which are the things at the back but and like i don't even know if this
side's not as good but wanting to do like a whole overhaul of my fridge i got one of these like
cutie containers for your eggs i'm not even going to show you all of my fridge right now because
i don't have the means and the supplies today to like actually make this perfect um but i guess
like one little thing i bought specifically with the fridge in mind it's gonna solve a big problem
for me are these like stackable like wine bottle like any kind of big like beverage i suppose
holders for that like right now i have these things that are just like always rolling around
whenever i go to like take out my coffee i'm hopeful that uh using these to organize a little
bit better will prevent the inevitable of like a glass bottle is gonna roll out and like shatter so
so now i need to rearrange things to relocate the things that were over here but at least
i like now have a place that's designated for like my big bottles and those won't be breaking
so we love that one day this is all gonna get fixed but today's not the day i also picked up
more of these like big bins for organizing under some bathroom sinks i don't know what
happened to me where i thought that this thing was like a bigger
size as well as a two pack it's like a little drawer so welcome to the under the bathroom
sink this under the cabinet situation is a mess it's mostly like makeup i have like nail things
face masks like backup products this is mostly like extra things that is like my restock area
if that makes sense i think i'm just gonna take everything out and we're gonna wing it
the good thing right now is that things are somewhat organized by category i've just like
used every leftover like pouch and like things like that to kind of separate out different makeup
products these are kind of separated but just like the clutter of it all is driving me crazy
something for this first spin i'm seeing a lot of like extra shampoos face washes
like things like that so i'm gonna put those in here because those can go
like the very back kind of like tucked behind things because i don't reach for these too often
i might just leave all my face masks in this existing bin
i've literally been rebuying makeup products that
i didn't even realize that i already had backups for
honestly this is looking pretty good this is like very product heavy so it's never
gonna look like uncluttered but the back one is like the restocks of things like i said this bin
is like hair and makeup products this is like all my glittery makeup my nail stuff
face masks and then nail polishes i put here and then all those pouches i just put inside
this one bag so that they can be handy for like packing for travels and i had one bin left over
so i need to order some more because i thought in this video that i could also get to organizing
under the sink in my half bathroom downstairs however i'm gonna have to order some more events
for that so we still have some projects in the works and that's just gonna take place in the
future on my vlog channel since i have to order stuff for that and again i'm going out of town
and i want to get this video up so i guess that brings me to the end of my spring cleaning video
i am feeling good like certain areas are more organized that i've been procrastinating on for
a really long time and just haven't prioritized so i'm feeling good hopefully this was at least
satisfying to watch or maybe gave you a little bit of cleaning inspiration as well
again if you want to check out cbs care pass i'm gonna have that linked in the
description box and thank you so much for watching and i'll see you in my next video
