How to Organize a Messy Kitchen - Before and After Kitchen Organization

Today we are cleaning and organizing a messy kitchen fast and on a small budget. Check out the before and after and hopefully you will be inspired by some of these easy and inexpensive kitchen organizing tips.

As a Professional Organizer, I often have to tackle messy spaces on a very short timeline and with a very tiny budget. I am so excited to be able to actually show you the transformation of this space. In under 3 hours we organized and cleaned this kitchen for this busy family of five. By using simple Butterfly approved solutions, hopefully this family will be able to maintain this kitchen organization for good!

Cas, you are the only person I've seen actually look at what is and isn't working before getting started. You tailor the plan to the people, I love that. Now I understand why I need to SEE my stuff. Lol!

I LOVE this style of organization makeover. It feels like there's SO much pressure to make everything "Pinterest worthy" and that's not often how life really looks!

[Megsother]

Please thank whichever family member allowed you into their home for this. I know I’d be embarrassed bc it wasn’t perfectly clean, but it helps SO many of us who need to see your plans in action in order to get ideas. Thank you, anonymous family member! 😬

I really like that this isn't a "Pinterest worthy" makeover. Makes me feel like a nice functional space is within my reach.

Very non-judgmental, busy as a bee, lovely, you give us hope that we can make changes. Keep it coming, you are the tops.

Thank you home owner for keeping it real. Huge help for us butterflies

Please tell them it was so appreciated that they shared their kitchen with us.also your hair looks so shiny and pretty Cass.

You are so kind in how you speak of your clients. That has to make people who are embarrassed of their clutter feel so much better.

I am amazed that you could do that entire kitchen in 3 hours, even with help from the resident. Wow!

I'm loving all the "real" organizing videos, especially for butterflies.

I love these videos. Helps me realise that I don't need a show home pintrest worthy 'look' as long as it's functional. I've been watching your videos for 7 months now & you have helped me get rid of so much clutter & tidy up my life. I used to be a hoarder. I have taken 25 boot loads to goodwill. Sold $1000 of stuff on sites & taken out 7 garbage bags of junk. In 7 months. I still have the master room, spare room, study, hall cupboards & the last sweep of the toy room to go! 🙂 thank you for changing my life, i feel less anxious & my surfaces are clutter free!

I love that you take into account what the family truly needs and their styles of organization

What a change! 3 hours ! You are a champ!!

Hi Cas, I love how "real" this kitchen is. Thank you for keeping it real.

[grannybekmakes]

You are literally one of the most real people on YouTube, and I love you! I also love your "end" of the videos, real talk, real mom, real kid meltdowns, real wife, real life. Can't wait for your weight loss channel. Much love from Alabama❤️

Absolutely incredible. We need a part 2 to show how you reorganized the rest of the cabinets. TFS.

[kikisisi]

Thank you so much & please tell the homeowners how much we appreciate them letting us see their kitchen! It looked "real" & better than ours right now! How many people live there? We have 5 people who put things "down" & not "away". That is NOT a criticism or judgement - none of us have reached "perfection" to judge anyone! I think I'm living w/ "Butterflies" (not sure what I am - except paralyzed by clutter!). Gonna look for some more of your awesome videos to share w/my family. We need motivation & direction!

I love your Hollywood hair. You look very glamorous. I remembered you were going. My husband and I went to Vegas for our honeymoon. When we got home I had outgrown my clothes. I love prime rib and it was everywhere on the specials. We did a lot of sight seeing, the Hoover Damn and the Mountains. We missed the Grand Canyon because it rained for the first time in years while we were there and the helicopters weren’t flying people to the Canyon. You are a miracle worker. You had that house, straightened up in 3 hours. Are you sure you aren’t Wonder Woman. Love your videos. They keep me going and moving. Thanks Janice

You are AMAZING! Don’t beat yourself up, your one of the few You-tubers who is honest! Thank you😘👍👍🦋⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😉
