#decluttering

Declutter your home using the KonMari method. Steps: 1. Commit to tidying up. 2. Imagine your ideal lifestyle. 3. Finish discarding first, then organize. 4. Tidy by category, not location (clothes, books, papers, komono, sentimental). 5. For each item, ask 'Does this spark joy?'. 6. Thank items before discarding. 7. Assign a home for everything kept. Folding technique: vertical storage. Start with clothes (easiest). Save sentimental items for last. One-time intensive process, not daily maintenance. Results in lasting organization and mindful consumption. Created by Marie Kondo.
