I love how calming your voice is.

I love the open shelves; they are a really good way to minimize what you have, as you can't hide any clutter. Your kitchen is beautiful.

I don’t have a Junk Drawer. I have a well curated Miscellaneous Drawer containing things that are actually necessary to own and must be kept handy but have no other logical home. I wish I could manage the rest of my house as well as I do that drawer 😂.

Have been replaying this video for the past hour as I cleaned and am now sitting down to watch. You’re home is so beautiful and you have such a calming presence. Really inspired by all you do!

I keep my veg cuttings in a bag in the freezer to make stock xx

Keeping the compost in the freezer helps to one clear counter tops and two eliminate odors

We had a very large kitchen with a lot of cupboards in the house we’ve just sold. So yes, I had a lot of stuff in my kitchen. Now living in a rental( waiting to our new home is built) with a very tiny kitchen, I had to get rid of things because my new kitchen will be small too. I think that more of 70% was giving away or went to the second hand shop. Now using only the things we use it feels soooooo good. There are still some boxes on the attic, so I have to go through my stuff again haha. Love your kitchen especially the shelves. And oh, how I regret you we’re not filming the decluttering, it would have been very realistic.🥰

By sheer coincidence I was staring in the cupboard at my fancy dinner set that I never use as you mentioned yours, and I feel so called out right now lol.

I keep my compost in the freezer :) you can get a small bin with lid or what I do is buy a box of small compost bags. I fill this bag and twist it closed after each time I add to it. When it’s full I put it out in the big compost bin (in the bag) no mess, no thawing necessary! :)

Oh MY! I hit the Like as soon as I saw that little dog :)

Your kitchen is so beautiful! I absolutely love it! 😀💟

I love your channel. So relaxing to watch. I just subscribed.

Your garden is so lovely !! 🌷 I love your kitchen too !! ❤️

Love this! 😍 Now having to fight the urge to get out of bed at 10pm to go and start decluttering my kitchen! 😂 Thanks for the inspiration!

I’ve marie kondowed my whole house 3 yrs ago but the kitchen is the most difficult to keep on top of. After seeing your lovely video I am inspired to go through the cupboards again and be ruthless. Oooh how I will love the results later on☺️

Hi there Jessica, I am a new subscriber. This video popped up in my recommended videos list and I am so glad it did! I have now watched all of your other videos (the skincare, day in the life and cottage home tour are my absolute favourites although I enjoyed them all), visited your blog, signed up for your mailing list and followed your boards on Pinterest (I don't have Instagram). I am also planning on purchasing your ebooks once I start working again (I lost my job due to COVID). Needless to say, I am enthralled with your content! Your down-to-earth, slow approach to life and the crazy world of social media is exactly what I am searching for during these times and your genuine nature absolutely shines through. Thank you for your authenticity and kindness. Looking forward to seeing whatever you create next! Best wishes, Sophia from Canberra, Australia.

I keep the compost in a plastic bin in the freezer and as it fill I just wedge it out of the bin into the compost collection bin. It works well!

I have decided to re-visit this vlog as I really want to simplify the contents in my kitchen and remembered loving the calm, beautiful space you have created. I am constantly trying to solve not having much storage space but I am just realising I have to simplify and be ruthless. Ok - here goes 😘

Beautiful! I do love open shelving and would love to have it in my home. It's in my head and on paper, so we will see. So enjoyed your kitchen, thanks for sharing!

Wow your garden is so so beautiful!

Jessica I would love it if you did a video on relationships and your advice on a healthy relationship. I’m always curious about this and love to hear about other people’s loving relationships! Thank you for your videos!♥️

Thank you so much for this video! Your kitchen is my kind! But mine needs some major help! Wow! I need you to help me that's for sure,! And your outdoor seating area is amazing!

Nice to have you back! Hope you had a good week off. So weird that you did a video on this because it’s on my lockdown list! I think I’ll tackle it this weekend now as I’m feeling inspired! 👍

Looks so springy! 🦋🌸💐🌹🌻🥀

Your kitchen is so cosy. I can't wait to go charity/antique shop shopping. I have a year old modern white kitchen but I would like a kitchen where I feel like I don't have to put everyhting away ALL the time. I am a good few years away from replacing the kitchen I have now but I am planning already LOL. Thank you for sharing your lovely kitchen. Love the slide and actually thought the t bag jar looked really nice, easy to open for regular use😉🤣

You have the sweetest home! 🥰

Lovely to have you back Jessica. I just tuned in for this episode and what a lovely surprise to see my little reusable tea bag sitting on your tea shelf. I’m over the moon it made the cut 😍

😲 your kitchen is so cute x

Love it Jess. Thanks. So glad you did this as it was one of the things I asked for/suggested! Lovely and inspiring content as always ❤️

Lovely kitchen! In Japan we kept our food scraps in the freezer because for nearly 6 months of the year it’s either super humid or over 30degreeC so it’s to prevent smells & space was also an issue in my teeny tiny flat...

🤣 I totally understand, there was a lot of arguing going on when my husband and I remodeled our kitchen. It's Just sooo stressful. But in the end it was all worth it, it looks great AND....... We are still married 😉

wow your kitchen is so beautiful!! Kitchen goals.

So calming I love your garden ❤️

Wonderful place. Loved it a looot...

I make stock one a week from all the peeling I keep in the freezer and then throw it in the compost bin 😋🌸

What a wonderful place to live

We live in Brooklyn and got a small metal trash bin to put our compost in the freezer. The metal won’t crack from the cold, and it’s big enough to only have to take out 1-2 times per week... and we avoid smell and worst of all in nyc- pest problems!

I like your channel 🌹 Greetings from South Africa 🙋🏻‍♀️

I love how you have maximised your space and I agree that you don't need to hide everything (unless really ugly) and it's handy being able to have quick access to your jars. We have a Sage Barista touch on our countertop, which is our most used item (more so than the microwave/stove, ha!) our huge challenge is keeping our counters clear. They seem to be a magnet for everything from keys to suncream and leaflets etc. Can you recommend any UK sites for pretty storage containers and trays? I recently purchased some Muji containers for our spices for inside the cupboards and while they're useful, I'm not a fan of the plastic and would prefer some nice wire baskets/non-plastic trays. Thank you :)

You must be my twin! Everything is just how I would do it. I hate bin’s too 😂

Love this peek into your home Jessica. Your kitchen may be small on space but it is big on style! 🍴 🍲 ☕️💕 PS I’m loving your hair curly, it looks gorgeous! 👩🏽‍🦱

The peelings in the freezer is for flats etc who don't have compost bins so they are taken in a compost site once a week this is outside UK. Remember you can cook peelings that have been frozen to make veg stock.

No, you don't defrost it, just dump it in the compost pick-up bin. We keep it in a plastic dish tub in the freezer, then it doesn't smell and attract bugs!

Love it! Your kitchen it my dream! Very beautiful. Are those all the pots you have? Which plant is the one behind you? English ivy or chain of hearts? It’s beautiful! I love the shelves and the cottage look and would love to create that when we have a house. We are currently in an apartment and we have no say haha. I have created a wall of shelves to store flours and beans and dry things because I purchase in bulk and also I think it look lovely. I have a shelf of books that I could honestly eliminate as it is taking over the shelf. I really love having everything visible. We have had a cleaning of chopping boards and cheese boards and we eliminated quite a few. I was fed up with the amount of space it was taking and I wasn’t using all them! How can you?? If only I was an octopus then I could chop so many things and then I would need more boards. 😹 I find we have a weakness for mugs and cups. That is definitely an area husband and I could work on. We love coffee and love diner mugs and have collected few from different shops, we have a lot now and think we could donate a few that we don’t like the design of. We will see if husband cooperates. Love your tours! I am quite nosy of your home and would like to open every drawer. 😳😹🤥

I put my compost in the freezer 🤷 it's just a little thing of Tupperware that I take out frequently. I live alone so my compost pile stays p manageable

Idk if you’re gonna see this but my mom and I used to keep compost in the freezer in this storage container that was deep maybe like a gallon deep? (Idk if that makes sense I hope it does) lined with a biodegradable compost bag and at the end of the week we’d drop it off no need to defrost it’ll do it on it’s own

Just learned of your website and content. I’m in love! I’ve been wanting to go minimalist for about a year now but didn’t yet have a vision. You have inspired me to get started! Oh and love, love your blouse. Where did you find it??

What a lovely kitchen and BEAUTIFUL garden!!! It all just looks so wonderful. I do have a question; how do you keep the open shelves clean with all of the cooking? Do they not get greasy very quickly?

New sub!

Most Koreans seem to put their food waste in the freezer, but that's for the sole reason that their recycling is very strict and to ensure that there won't be any foul smells etc. They simply put it in a plastic bag in the freezer until it's time to recycle it. Don't fully know how it is in Japan but I know some areas have extreme recycling, so I can see it being used the same especially if living in a flat. So I don't think it applies to your case. :) Such a cute kitchen, me and my husband are looking into buying a cottage, we've found one we're absolutely in love with and the kitchen is small etc so my mind is going all over the place of what I could do if we do buy the house (who knows what will happen during times like this eh).

It’s a lot easier if your other half isn’t a food hoarder lol 😂

Such a beautiful calming space! The slide entrance is hilarious. I'm curious - are you still using trays to organise your spaces? I've been hunting for a copper tray to enhance my coffee station for aaaages :)

Take a look at “Pick up Limes” ( you may already know ) , she has a recent vlog about 🌱. You have a lovely kitchen..my style! 🦋

I know it's quite often the case for people in NYC apartments to put their veggie scraps in the freezer and then when they have a bag full they take to a communal composing point. I'm assuming these people don't cook at home much because I would run out of space after a couple of days!!

Does the open shelves by the range get greasy? I would love to have them on my kitchen which we are renovating this summer, but I'm afraid that they would be impossible to clean.

We have the same coffee machine ^_^

I believe she has chickens so the scrap serve her for feeding her chickens and you just give it to them you don't defrost it

Somebody watching??🎉🎉🎉

Beautiful ☺️ would you recommend Spark Joy? I loved The Life Changing Magic of Tidying up and wondered if Spark Joy is useful too? X

I'm putting i a request of a wavy hair routine video, please! :-)
