Clean With Me: Kitchen (Cleaning Motivation)

It's Spring Cleaning time and it seems we all could do with a little (or a lot) of cleaning motivation right about now, so Melissa Maker is here to help with a clean #withme video to "get you in the mood" to #clean! Instead of watching some super long "ultimate clean with me" video that will take up an hour of your time, this video is less than 10 minutes and designed to get you cleaning YOUR home faster - how's that for #cleaningmotivation?

My depression prevents me from having any motivation to clean. Then the mess piles up and depresses me more. It's a horrible cycle. Your videos inspire me to actually WANT to clean. When I need to get up and get moving, I throw a bunch of your Clean With Me videos in a queue on my TV and just get to it. This will sound silly, but listening to you talk about cleaning in the background while I'm cleaning my apartment almost makes it feel like I'm cleaning with a friend.

Thank you for being part of my mental health routine. You have no idea how helpful you are.

Hello CMS Nation! Are you in need of a little cleaning motivation?

[wyladellacope]

I am in LOVE with my Makers Towels!! I was one of those who thought “come on, these towels from the dollar store are fine” boy was I WRONG! These towels really are the right tool for the job, the glass towel was like magic! The multi purpose towels are so absorbent and make wiping effortless (s pattern always) and don’t even get me started on the waffle weave towel! MAJOR GAME CHANGER!!! That sucker dries in the first swipe!! I am so excited to clean! I have my homemade cleaners/my caddy/ all the right tools and the 3 wave system down! ⭐️🤘🏻😊 Thank you!!!!

Small more frequent cleaning is good for me. That is after the marathon cleaning. Each week I am getting less and less motivated. I need some warm weather, no rain, when I can open the windows and let in fresh air! Thanks to you and Chad. I have learned so much even at my age!

Melissa, I have heard you many times saying you don't like cleaning. I truly don't understand it. I see you cleaning with so much passion and inspiring others to do it that I can't understand you don't like it. Maybe you do really like it indeed. I think you really enjoy it! You shine at it! I love your videos! Thank you!

Wouldn't it be nice if we could all move in 'fast speed' mode when cleaning? It is my dream....

[nancylawrence]

Hey, thanks :) I'm so impressed by the fact that you did not let the water run while you scrubbed and scraped the dishes and did it only while rinsing. Hats off 👏🙌
I feel very sad when I see people being inconsiderate and let the water run unnecessarily. Hope this inspires a lot of people out there and they conserve water and save the earth 🤞

How you’re able to clean w/o your hair tied back is beyond me. when I had my swoopy bowl cut i was CONSTANTLY moving my hair out of my face. we stan a legend

[deleesew]

I'm always intrigued when I watch your videos and other American videos, when you hand wash dishes, you put the dish soap on your cloth etc and then run the tap to wash/rinse. We've always rinsed our dishes, then fill the sink with hot water and detergent, then hand wash our dishes in that water. If we have a double sink, the 2nd sink is filled with clean water to dip/rinse our dishes before putting into the drying rack.

I recently got a cleaning schedule from a friend. Monday through Saturday you have an area to clean each day. It's revelutionized my life. I'm an unorganized person. But now I know what to do each day and I do that. Otherwise I'm totally overwhelmed and get nothing done. I've always had a cleaning lady until Covid. I love cleaning my own home! Thank you for your tutorials. They're brilliant.

I have always been a daily cleaner so on clean up day I only have to sweep, vacuum, and mop. Doing a little at a time will help with being overwhelmed 💚

Girl you are amazing. I'm working full time, so when I get home I have no motivation to clean. My kids cleaning is questionable, they would clean just a big mess and leave small pieces anyway, so I still have to clean up every time but sometimes my laziness taking over and I letting it go out of control. Watching your videos motivate me a lot. Especially if you show how you clean up from messy point. Thank you so much.

I like how your cat stayed in the same place for most of the video. I had to rewatch the video because I kept staring at your cat to see how long it would stay there. 😂

Hi - thanks for revisiting this. It really does offer me motivation. As I haven't been able to work as our pub is now shut down, I decided to do a marathon clean to start with two weeks ago. It's my intention to buy some spray bottles and tea tree oil to make up your recipe. I can now concentrate on bigger jobs that haven't been tackled for a while like windows and tops of cupboards, I've even carried some decluttering. I expect like a lot of people all over the world, because we're not working it forces your hand, so to speak, to have a good clean up/clear out. The down side is here in the UK all the tidy tips (places we take our rubbish that the bin men will not take) have closed, as have all the clothes banks and charity shops. I think there's going to be a big rush to those places when the lock down lifts. Anyways, I digress. To everyone who watches your videos, Happy Feel Good - as when you're space is tidy and clean it does make you feel good xx

I find marathon cleaning to be a bit overwhelming and fatiguing so I do much better doing cleaning on a regular basis but the cleaning is smaller and feels more manageable to me; I actually enjoy cleaning as I find I do some of my best thinking and problem solving while cleaning - thanks for your inspirational videos and tips!!

[lindaalbert]

I prefer a small clean as I am in a wheelchair. You're vids are so informative thanks a lot.

[christybigham]

Love 💕 your cat watching you clean, so sweet. Thank you for all these cleaning tips. They re are helpful and effective. 🧽🧴

[kyouell]

Frequent cleans with the family helping. Back in there before time I refused to do cleaning while the kids were at school because I don’t want them to think it happens magically.

[TheViewmaster]

"Strategy" is definitely the key, at least for me! Because I live alone and have few visitors, I tend to do the marathon type of cleaning. Stay safe and well you guys!!

[taniapal]

All that took just 1 hour??? The main reason I find tidying and cleaning soooo hard is because I get overwhelmed and think it will take hours!!!
Plus I don’t work so methodically!! Thank you Melissa, this has spurred me on and have just bought your book 😃
Stay safe xx
