The Life-changing Magic of Tidying up

Wow!

I enjoyed this book immensly.

Fold each piece of cloething into simple, smooth rectangles.

• Every piece of clothing has its own 'sweet spot' where it feels just right.
• Fold your socks in 1/2 or 1/2 + 1/2. Do not ball them up. Your sock drawer will look amazing.
• The key is sto store things standing up rather than laid flat.

Don't scatter storage places - all items of the same type belong in the same place. You must designate a spot for each thing. Make separate storage spaces for each family member.

Clutter is caused by a failure to put things away where they belong. Storage should reduce the effort needed to get items out.

Use vertical storage - avoid stacking.
