Why KonMari?

Image
Why I chose to get organised with the KonMari Method™ I live in a tiny home.  It's a bricks and mortar home, but under 500 sq feet of space. With a growing family we planned to move somewhere bigger, I embraced the adage that you should live the life you want now and started to gather the things I needed for my new home.  Surely I would have space for a large desk and a dedicated craft area, and I would definitely need those extra bedside cabinets for the children.  Extra crockery and cutlery? Yes please. My disorganised tiny home filled up with boxes and furniture stacked in every available space. The  hallways and bedsides lined with belongings only leaving a narrow track to walk down. Without consciously realising it I had become a hoarder, ready for a future life I was going to live instead of the one I was living now. my bedside table pre-KonMari And then our circumstances changed. A move was no longer going to happen anytime soon and so I tr...

Visualise Your Destination

A tidying and decluttering introduction. (Taken from a previously published article) Decluttering seems to have become a bit of a life long hobby, a new type of sport.  It's something you continually do in your spare time, but, for me as well as I think many others, it never reaches a conclusion.

So, here is my personal vision: Tidy, no trip hazards, everything is easy to find and then put away again once it's...

Items That Used To Spark Joy

Image
  What do you do with items that used to be a precious part of your life? (Taken from a previously published article) Whilst I have not yet reached the komono category of my decluttering journey, my mind has been distracted by my diverse selection of craft supplies. In the past I was lucky enough to make hand crafted cards that were featured in magazines and to design jewellery in return for more supplies than I could ever use.  My circumstances have changed and I no longer spend my time on these activities.  I am still creative.  I make journals about my travels and spend much more of my time on experiences.   Some of my supplies are used to embellish planners and travellers notebooks, but most are gathering dust.  I haven't been able to part with them because they once sparked joy and were such an important part of my life.  Yet as the years have passed I have had the opportunity to return to those hobbies, but I have chosen ...
