Her voice even sounds organized...
Soo true
Devana Luke she sounds like a very organized Stacy 😂😂
*her existence is organised*
Lol
Devana Luke Lol
She will probably have a heart attack if she sees my room.
ɾҽժ яυвιєѕ Oh in my room she definitely will
No she will not She’ll throw you out and clean it herself
Same my room is a mess its like a garage sale everythings everywhere
@@-_--wx8tj that made me laugh
@@-_--wx8tj that made me laugh
I love how she says “dollar store” so often, it shows that basic organization does not require tons of money!
She has a lot of Dollar Tree and DIY organizational product videos. The DIY are how to use stuff you already have and would be throwing away.
Even single dollars add up to a lot
S Patel yes but it’s likely going to be cheaper than things more than a dollar I think.
@@sashaztoriez3667 You can get a LOT of things similar for less than a dollar or free but i understand where youre coming from
S Patel No I mean if you want to organize it doesn’t require a lot of money and she’s proving that by constantly saying “dollar store” and dollar stores usually do not have very expensive things. Of course there are cheaper options but that’s not the point
I hate that people are being so negative or making fun of her . This awesome... like the fact that she is sharing her knowledge with everyone says a lot.
Agreed, perhaps they are green eyed monsters. I love that she is sharing too. The organizing Angel for real! It’s all thought out for us and shared; years of knowledge and hard work.
I’m glad she’s sharing her talents with us. This is my first time watching her channel and I will be subscribing. God bless you.
@@budgieyy of course they're jealous. Their houses are probably filthy pig sty's and they're taking it out on her.
@@ta-shonstinson7114 and sadly she don’t post that much anymore and her last video was 1 year ago. Maybe because of all these negative people. For me, she was the first KZheadr Organizing Queen for me the OG.
Same❤❤❤❤
"Here is our junk drawer" pulls out the neatest drawer I've ever seen in ma life
CadanceHarmony her "junk jawer is the most cleanest my house doesn't even have that drawer
CadanceHarmony ikr
CadanceHarmony lol
CadanceHarmony neatest*
CadanceHarmony lol i know right
Her " junk" drawer is more organized than my "organized" drawer🤣😂
ha ha ha
Ikr🤣
Lol same
Never read anything more relatable
IKR 😂
Okay, and where do I find the tutorial: "How to teach my family how to put everything back to his place, as soon as I have organized everything" ?
I know right😂I always clean but then 5 minutes later-
@@brynnashley2738 😂 same here!
Same here
Use incentives! Go with prizes and goodies for those who put things back correctly the most. Think of those teenagers on extreme couponing who take over the family shopping for an end goal and knock it out of the park. 👍🏻
@@malimillions 😂😂😂 sad but true...
I've come back years later to enjoy this tour once more as I'm doing my spring cleaning. I love her passion for organization---it makes her happy to have a clean, organized home. She's so good at what she does!
She’s adorable.
Same here. Watched a while back, and watching it again with pleasure. Makes me so peaceful watching clean and organized spaces, probably my unsatisfied OCD talking 😂
Me too!
I joined her Power Productivity Program back in 2015 and I'm re-watching all these years later to help myself get organized as I move into a different job, home, and basically start over with my life. I highly recommend that program. There's A LOT that she doesn't share in the regular KZhead videos and for me, it was so worth it. It's something that I will take with me for the rest of my life.
Same!
Why is this in my recommendations? Is KZhead trying to tell me something..
Emma Flynn exactly 😂😂
Emma Flynn it's trying to make u organized 😂😂
Hanin Habib EXACTLY😂😂😂😂
Alyssa Centeno l😂😂💔
Emma Flynn LOLLLLLL 😂😂😂😂😂
"here's our junk drawer" -pulls out the most organized drawer I have ever seen in my life
I know right. I had to go back and listen again to see if she actually said "junk" drawer 😩
That's what I was thinking! Haha😂
Ikr😂
that is me.
my junk draw doesn't look that organised ☺☺☺
i rewatch this so many times, even after 4 years when it first came out
0:53 kitchen 5:28 pantry 8:46 office 11:37 office supply 16:22 closet 19:51 bathroom
Thank you x
Ok messy places stress me out but this stresses me out just as much...
It stressed her out too , to the point where she had a break down.
Leah Henshall ???
@@leahhenshall6072 how??
Leah Henshall when did this happen?👀👀
Ink BlottedSoul a while ago. She stopped posting for a really long time
Me in her house : * puts the wrong thing in a wrong bin accidentally * Her: GET. OUT.
Ivan Helito 😂😂😂
🤣😂🤣😂
im crying
Hahahahaha
She might organize the comments :D
I watched this video a while back, not knowing how to use my super deep cupboards in pantry. Learned about using lazy susans for deep shelves, bought like 6 really large ones on Amazon and it's worked fantastic for my organization, so easy to access all the bottles. For all the people making fun of super organization, let's be a little less cynical, just grab whatever wisdom we came here for, and be grateful to Alejandra for opening the doors of her sanctum sanctorum, for all of us slobs to learn!
That’s a lot of organizing; as I look around in my room, get inspired, nah...going back to sleep! 😂
Exactly
Her junk drawer is more organized then anything in my house.
TIAM TAVAKOLI lol
TIAM TAVAKOLI hahaa
This is how many times she said organise. 👇🏻 Ok so I've been reading the comments of the video sooooo... where I am from people spell 'organize' as organise so most of the people watching this video must be from America or somewhere where they spell 'organise' as organize. I was thinking of actually changing it so that everyone who 'cares' can be happy but I think that I should be able to write how I was taught at *school* . I respect that other people may spell it differently because they live in different areas of the *world* and hope that you will 'let' me write 'organize' as organise. Thank you.
Arty KittyKat is not “organise” it’s organize
Not really!
I agree with slowed down music it is organize
wong allez it isn’t something to “agree” with, it’s just common knowledge.
Organize*
Love how passionate Alejandra is & how she turned her hobby into a career! So inspirational!
This home is literally my dream home, I love how everything is so organized 🤩
Kitchen is too big! You may laugh at that! When I was married we built a big home. Very large kitchen. Spent too much time walking! Seriously! I like the sink and cooktop to have a contiguous countertop…not across the floor. A corner is perfect! And the fridge on the other side of the sink…another corner. With a butcher block behind the sink. THAT was my favorites kitchen! When you stand at the sink the butcher block is behind you; the fridge to your right; gas range to your left. Kitchen table and chairs beyond butcher block (which also has high stools.) And a long counter (mine was about 5 feet) with small sink and disposal that was auxiliary sink; bar sink; the counter that got the mail and stuff but NOT actually IN THE KITCHEN! It was BRILLIANT! It also had a fireplace catty corner but not necessary. That counter was normal counter height with cabinets underneath where I kept vases and a raised backsplash. I put a small TV there as I lived alone. I LOVED LOVED LOVED that kitchen! It was about 15 feet wide and from main sink to small sink about 20 feet. But the WORKING kitchen was about 15 x 17. PLENTY BIG!
If someone wanted to rob her house it'll be the easiest thing ever
😂😂😂😂
I don't Know agreed
I don't Know gosh that's the funniest thing I've heard 😂😂😂😂
"and this is our savings drawer, you can tell here, it has a label so there's no confusion"
I don't Know nah, her alarm system is probably also organized 😂😂
All this organization made me realized I like my messy life better
Preach
Right. It's too boring for me. You know mess makes our life adventurous and exciting 😂😂
I'm so envious of the abundance of space she has. There's literally *no* organization system that would make it possible for me to store all my stuff that neatly in my small apartment. [And, before someone feels obliged to tell me to declutter - I already did.]
Yeah that's true. If you have a small space, either you get rid of stuff drastically or just move out for some space. 😭
I have a big house but still can't. Nobody keeps things back. Including me. Only people who spend a lot of time at home, stress free job etc can do this.
@@drkrishnap There is no such thing as a stress free job😁
@@LindaLandsverk depends on the level of maximum stress you have experienced rt. I consider anyone who can sleep 8 hours, find time for a healthy lifestyle, "stress free" relatively.
Okay. She's a Queen. This is one wholesome, real girl. I really appreciate her! What a gem!
If she threw some clothes they’d probably land folded up
Ben K omg
😂
Im done who is she not from this earth if she see my room probably faint , lol she perfect
😂
LMAO!
when she opened her “junk” drawer i choked
ellie hodgson same
Ikr I was like if that your drunk drawer then my junk drawer probably looks like ur trash can
ellie hodgson our kitchen junk drawer doesnt even open... it’s that full
I know! "junk drawer" sounds like it's supposed to be messy!
Yes lol same
I remember watching this video so long ago and it inspired me so much! Now I’ve come back years later because it still inspires me!
Her voice is so smooth and relaxing . I could listen to her talk all day long.. she would be a wonderful story teller.
And right here are all the dust, dust mites and cobwebs we collect. It's nice and organized so we know where to find it.
Yulissa M. BAHAHAHA SO TRUE
Yulissa M. Hahahaha😂
Yulissa M. 😂😂😂😂
Yulissa M. Omg😂😂😂😂👍🏼

"Organise your writing instruments" Uh, do you mean a few black pens I stole back in 6th grade?

Alexandra Trebley please get a grip on yo self !!!She at least isn't a thief!
Alexandra Trebley lol
The first organization video that I saw was one of yours, and I saw many other videos from other people but I can still say that your home and car organization videos are by far the best I have seen! And I just had to say it. also I keep checking to see if you have any new videos, anyone know why she's gone?? With Love, Azadeh from Iran❤
You were a pioneer in the organizing world! Hope you are doing well. Would love to see new content.
If i was robbing her I would literally forget what I was doing. I would be so amazed and I'd check in every room just to see how much more organized it's gets
Rotlf.....
If I was robbing her I would make sure not to make a mess if I picked something up Id probably try to put it back where I found it 😂
Wow 😄
She says this keeps her life "frustration free"....why do I get the vibe that she STAYS FRUSTRATED?
IKR! All of the bins and labels is just stressful.. 😐
I think she gets soo stressfull if someone doesn't put something to the right place or doesn't put it away.
Carissa Richardson 😂😂😂😂
lol
This would make me frustrated imagine walking in and seeing a bunch of labels
I know it has been a while but I love coming back and watching this. I love organizing my home too. I don't have as much to organize because we are minimalists 😅 but its still amazing to get ideas for what I do have.
Great ideas I’m so in love with your grandmas writing and your hubby making you things we are totally doing that
“Here is my junk drawer” *literally perfect organized and categorized bins of beauty*
Meg Gabrielson i know right
I died🤣
My crush: i don‘t like messy people Me:
LMAOO
😂😂
Truth
Hahahaha LMAO
ceren68 LMAOOO
All I can say is , this woman loves her home! Beautiful.
The clear tackle box for batteries and medicine is such a good idea, and the small recycle bin is not only adorable but also a great idea!!! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
What does she do in her free time?? "Oh hey honey what're you doing?" "Oh just organizing my batteries"
Rebecca Askew this is so funny 😂😂
Rebecca Askew yea no normal person would
Rebecca Askew well this is what she does for a living, soooooo......
Justin Seagull not funny
It's fun to look at a tea draw
I wonder where she stores her husband
Raelyn Bushcott Ikr
LOL

Raelyn Bushcott true
In the corner
Ohmygod this video filled my heart with joy! I have been trying to organise my bedroom and some family areas but it's really hard because I care a lot about recycling and I try to be eco-friendly as much as possible. I have been organising using old plastic food containers, paper bags from the groceries, I've been making containers out of old cardboard boxes, and all that stuff takes a lot longer than just going to the store and buying plastic containers. I've watched a LOT of these videos and I have NEVER seen someone talk about recycling or talk about making an environmentally friendly choice like using old ice cream containers to store things! Your recycling bins made me so happy, talking about using cardboard containers in your drawers made me so happy, this whole video made me so happy! Thank-you so much! Your home is beautiful and this video has made me feel so much better about my organisation project and the way in which I'm doing it. I appreciate this so much and I can't wait to watch more of your channel ^_^
You are doing a great job Alejandra! It is so inspiring for me just to see this video! Thanks!
"all you have to do is eat 7 pints of ice cream" say no more
What if I have 6 20 pints from plastic tubs? Well... I guess I'll just have to eat it now... 😏
She smiles every time she finishes talking about something
She’s proud of herself for making everyone else feel bad.
grace grace you are so right
Lily Howitt well smiling after what u saying its a way to make the other like what u say ever if he don't like it !!
I freaking love how organized and colorful this is. #GOALS
I have watched a lot of organization videos, and what impressed me most was the little recycling bins for batteries,medicines and other items she has used throughout her home. What a gem of an idea! Thanks for sharing!
Did anyone else crack up laughing when she said"I like to keep it minimal"
😎
Yip! ALL that stationary, aka: card making ingredients ... and then a huge tub of bought greeting cards 🤷♀️
Her: "Here is my essential oils" Me: Of course she has essential oils.
Yesss of course
Is she anti vax
@@jimcarreyismylover3378 ikr. When i was looking at the comments on the video, i was like, " wait, why didnt someone already comment this?" So i did it. Lol
I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT THAT 😂
Frida J0_ and the tea drawer
so smart, love the lazy susan idea, also its so admirable to see her and her husband work together, collaborating!
back watching it again....this is my life therapy
Her helping me clean: Where is your junk drawer? Me: my house.
Vicky Wilson 😂😂😂 so funny xx
Omg so funny
Lol soooo true
All our drawers are random
Vicky Wilson my room
Robbing her house is probably like walking into a Home Depot. Imagine actually having your life together like this lmao
Oh please, Home Depot isn't this organized!
Hi! i have seen all your videos the last years and i have really changed all my everyday life with all that small tips! i was a total mess,now i have everything in place! it took a long time but it changed my life! thank you alexandra! kisses from greece!
The home edit definitely jacked your style. Every thing about their organization is a carbon copy of yours
I appreciate how detailed the organization is. But for myself, minimalism fits my life style. The amount of items that are organized in this video is overwhelming for me.
Daisy Martinez ikr me too I'm so overwhelmed
Daisy Martinez I agree so much and it annoyed at how much she said productive
Abigail C you copied my name
true... I'd just get rid of 7/8 of that and have an organized home by default.
shes actually pretty environmentally friendly, makes me smile
That 'knee pad' idea was really, really good. The one that held your essential oils. Now I've got to think what ELSE I can do that with! Thanks!
You're such an inspiration to me! I try to incorporate a lot of these tips into my own home.
She forgot to label the dog (15:15). Now I don't know her name or if she's even really a dog. She could be a giant hamster for all I know. This organizer has failed me.
Nakidz but she said frustration free :-/
Nakidz BEST COMMENT EVER 😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Nakidz LMFAOOOOO OMG IM DEAD LMAO😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Can we all just thank her for not adding ANY ads!! Like thank you!😭
Chloebentleyyy ads are unorganised
She was scared that one of the cabinets in the drawers wouldn’t have a tiny recycling bin 😂
i got over 5 ads 😂
For me it’s FIVE ads in the beginning oOF
Chloe Bentley she added 1
she is so polite , and explains so well. the video was so wholesome. thankyou for this video.
It's really practical. I'm impressed by her organizing skills.
The key for organized home : minimalism.
Amen
Essentialism
Yeah this lady has too much shit for me to feel comfortable with how organized it is... like it stresses me out because even though it's organized there's just. So. Much. Stuff.
Exactly
I agree, and yet I upgraded from minimalism to essentialism after christmas, I now have more than I need, but I get along just fine on 260 sq ft. I sew and knit as my new hobbies, and I still have a very organized home. The only way I would go completely minimalist again is if I decided to buy a tiny apartment in town
Marie kondo: now your space is clean! Her: HoLd mY MiNi TRaSh CaNs
Omg I miss watching cleaning w marie kondo HAHHHHA
MARIE KONDO YAS
u win.
Could you imagine living with her. OMG 😮
Wow! This is fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing all these tips, I really appreciate it. Thank you.
Its 2 am and I'm watching some woman describe how organised her house is..... What am I doing with my life???
ErinIsobel05 same here
Same
Same it’s 4 am here
I watched a hoarders episode after this so I would feel better
Same 2:11
The less you own the less you have to organize. Minimalism is good.
RefusesCookies WORD!!!!
I wonder how long it took her to train her family on how to use all her organization systems
Cole Taylor that’s a good question
RefusesCookies i know this lady owns so much
fr, i barely organize because i don’t own enough to organize 😂
I love how a lot of things in her organization are rainbow and colorful. That would motivate me a lot
They are angels in disguised, teaching us how to enjoy this material world! Bless her.
The little recycling bins are too much 😂 omg
Yes they are
my "junk drawer" is literally filled with gloves, staples, sauces, paper, napkins, straws, things i haven't seen since 1732, the blood of jesus, dragons, and the real slim shady.
Mychele Hughes i know right same lol
The blood of Jesus 😂😂
Mychele Hughes
Mychele Hughes omg I live for these comments The real slim shady 😂
Mychele Hughes i know mine too!
Thank you so much for this brilliant video Alejandra. Fabulous tips - and I especially like the fact you are so eco conscious. People need to remember that throwing away items such as paint and batteries needs to be done thoughtfully. All the best for the new year from down here in New Zealand!
Alejandra, you're so creative and organized! I am adopting so many of these organization systems. Please keep sharing all your brilliant organization ideas! I am thankful for coming across your channel.
I have to eat 7 pints of ice cream before I can organize my pens.
Bonus!
I thought you said penis... and I read it twice
🤣🤣😂 i thought about it
first step of my organization journey 🥰🥰🥰
RefusesCookies 🤣🤣🤣🤣
her welcome mat is probably labeled “house” just so ppl know it leads to a house
juliet heaven hahahahahahaha
Lol
Lmfao
Lol
Lmao
Wow... This will be on my first bucket list. I want to try to be organize like you. I know I won't get it all down at once but if I can start with at least 1 thing you showed and use this in my life daily, then this is a big win for me. Just knowing where things are in my home without struggling to find it is my goal. Thank you so much for sharing. 💗😊
I really appreciate the areas to set aside donations and collect batteries and other waste for proper disposal. First organizing pro I have seen give explicit attention to responsibly discarding items, and building it into the system. Awesome!
Her definition of junk drawer- a clean organized drawer with some nescessities My definition of a junk drawer- a drawer with random stuff that has gathered over the years in one heaping mass Update 4 months later- thanks for all of the likes! lol I'm actually a pretty organized person irl😂

OMG...ALL of your comments are better than the video! Thank you! I needed this! ❤️️
We each have different personalities and thus need different approaches to organizing. I'm happy for Alejandra that she found what works for her! If you don't connect to this style, there are others that will work for you.
Robber: Hmmmm.... where’s the safe? *sees sign saying ‘SAFE’ with a post it note saying the password*

I really love your house! Been watching all your videos since forever. Miss you ❤
God is my witness! I will have an organized house like this someday!!!😭 *sob, sob!*
I’m just imagining how difficult is to maintain that house in order
When you realize that your desk is messier than her entire house
Unique Magic OML 😂😂😂😂😂

And I love the “responsibly recycling” totally love you
i love she is not organising a lot of products but organising and keeping everything minimal to maintain organising❤
she's crazy, I'm terrified and impressed at the same time

Dolebarber ditto 😂

That is exactly how I feel
Alejandra: Let's start with the junk drawer... Me: *still waiting for the junk to appear* 😂😂✌✌✌
Thank you very much for inspiring me. When I receive my financial breakthrough I can eventually create our house to be more organized too. I have been sketching how I wish our house to be. However I realize to sketch more like a designer.❣👑
Lemme just say: GOALS

Idk if I should laugh or cry
Am sorry but its four AM and I am on a candy high...I laughed so hard I was crying and I almost peed😬😂😂
