The ClutterBug system literally changed my life. I donāt use that term lightly. Life changing. I stopped wasting money on organizational stuff that didnāt work for me and came to terms with being a visual organizer. Iām 100% an āif I canāt se it, it doesnāt existā person and Cas taught me thereās nothing wrong with that as long as I organize accordingly!

Same here with having toes that rub holes in the tops of my shoes! Best preventative measure for me has been to put a square of good quality duct tape on the inside of my new (or old) shoes where my toes would rub. Eventually the tape will need to be replaced, but that's cheaper and easier than replacing the shoes!

It took me YEARS to figure out my category! I found focusing on the spectrums she talked about instead of the categories themselves to be helpful: Macro vs Micro and Visual vs Hidden. Also, in a video somewhere on her channel she mentioned looking in your house at the areas that are working for you already for a clue. With that tip, I suddenly realized how VISUAL I am (open shelves, hooks, even my yoga mat hangs on the wall), and how I like to have things in particular order much of the time (so some micro tendencies, like folding my underwear and decanting my pantry goods into ball jars). However, hooks are my best friend, and lids are my nemesis. Things should be easy to get out and put away one handed, but it should also be pretty and orderly where possible LOL. For a while I had thought I was a hidden type of person because I donāt like lots of things around, and yet I WANT TO SEE ALL MY STUFF. My solution to that issue is minimalism (which explains why Iāve tended towards minimalism for much of my life naturally). I think there needs to be an additional spectrum in her program that is Simplicity vs Abundance, because Iāve personally experienced it to be a fully separate issue.

Tip for labeling toy bins from a former PreK teacher- if the kiddo/s can't read yet: Use a picture of the kind of toy that goes in the bin and tape it on the front. Visual pictures go a long way- also is a form of matching game for the kiddo/s :) Example: picture of toy car on front of car bin. Have a fab day all :) ā¤ Oh and also some toys can be washed and disinfected in the dishwasher (tip especially for babies and toddlers)

I had to take the Clutterbug quiz 3 times and watch the 'Bug Style' videos to finally determine my Clutterbug style. It rocked my world to finally understand it. My closets were organized to the 'T' but clutter filled my home. I 'needed' to find the 'perfect home' for my stuff. I was buried in visual clutter everywhere until I started decluttering my cupboards and closets which were beautifully organized. They were also packed full, so I was trying to find space where there was no space. I'm a Bee mostly. Often Cass says Bee's have the hardest time letting go because we see use in everything. Like the scrap of pink felt and vintage embroidered ribbon I made a dress out of for my granddaughter's special 'mousey' stuffed toy. The materials were in the 'time will tell' bin. I'm a little bit of all the 'Bugs' depending upon which area I'm organizing. Butterfly for my craft space and Cricket for my office space - they're in the same room. haha. Thanks for this video.

I just wanted you to know how inspiring you are to me. I look at your house every time I go on a big throwing out binge. I grew up poor and am scared to get rid of things for a few reasons. One, because what if. Two because I simply didn't know you COULD live without stuff. I grew up in America!

Those are the cutest overalls I have ever seen!!
I am a lady bug and my husband is a butterfly. And so are my kids so I do my best to make things visual and macro. If it's something I am mostly in charge of, it's in a cabinet with a macro label. Like I have a bin for medicine instead of organizing everything individually. I love the idea of throwing things in their bin and closing the door!! Haha.

I just found out that I am a CRICKET!!! Thank you for including the Clutterbug test along with this video. Over the past couple of years, I have removed over 70% (and still decluttering) of items including furniture from my home. I love owning less, and I try to be organised... but still working on that. Perfection is a working progress!!! š

I LOVE Cas! Been following her for years. Learning I am a butterfly was life changing! I lived in an organized mess for years and couldn't figure out why traditional organizing methods didn't work for me. It turns out that I need important things out where I can see them and remember them and organizing solutions that prioritize ease of putting away. Thanks for featuring Cas on your video! (And always stay to the end of Cas's videos!)

I never took the quiz as I was convinced I was a cricket as very minimal with items. Turns out Iām a ladybug! And makes so much sense now. I think I minimise items to cope with the organisation - not because I love the minimal look. I have ended up with the minimal look but with random piles about the place š
