Lol. That's what I'm afraid of. Storage boxes, cabinets and lots of garbage bags.My mrs watched this and she's become totally on board. Now we're off to Ikea to buy some storage boxes. Fucks sake.
There's already 3 garbage bags in the kitchen after she watched a couple of episodes.Lol. That's what I'm afraid of. Storage boxes, cabinets and lots of garbage bags.
Im not a hoarder so can someone tldr the idea in her book to me? I have family members that collect too much shit, thankfully not hoarder levels but enough that it's messy. Might recommend the book to them.
Most tidying methods advocate a room-by-room or little-by-little approach, which doom you to pick away at your piles of stuff forever.
The KonMari Method™ encourages tidying by category – not by location – beginning with clothes, then moving on to books, papers, komono (miscellaneous items), and, finally, sentimental items. Keep only those things that speak to the heart, and discard items that no longer spark joy. Thank them for their service – then let them go.
People around the world have been drawn to this philosophy not only due to its effectiveness, but also because it places great importance on being mindful, introspective and forward-looking.
The Six Basic Rules of Tidying:
RULE 01
Commit yourself to tidying up.
RULE 02
Imagine your ideal lifestyle.
RULE 03
Finish discarding first.
RULE 04
Tidy by category, not by location.
RULE 05
Follow the right order.
RULE 06
Ask yourself if it sparks joy.
How so? You mean reviews?So the series itself is disappointing, is what seems like the consensus.
Reviews and the impressions here. There have been other house cleaning shows, and this doesn't seem to add much so it's another Netflix show to easily skip.

Because many people live like pigs. Others can't bare the thought of getting rid of something that might one day be useful. Others are shopping addicts who fill their homes with cheap shit because shopping makes them feel happy. You're dealing with people who own 160 pairs of shoes, have a nutcracker collection, have difficulty getting rid of the belongings of a deceased loved one, or just let their pile of shit exhaust them and take over their lives. People with these issues aren't rare.Why is this show popular? She doesn't do or say anything that isn't common sense, and all of her "wisdom" is just meaningless cliches. It's ineffective and worst of all, boring.

I read this book early last year and enjoyed it. The show could have used more Marie, and some of the cluttered homes grossed me out. It was still a decent watch though, I enjoyed it.
I am soooo afraid of watching this. I have 2 storage lockers full of videogame and movies collected through the years. Not willing to let that go yet lol.
I watched 3 episodes and I think there is at most a 3 minute total of tips between all that. Feels much more like those TV shows that you watch to laugh at what people do than actually learn something.I love Marie and her book (and organizing) but I thought the episode I watched was mediocre (the one with the gay guys). She barely featured in it (probably due to the language barrier. The show would have been significantly better if it had been set in Japan), didn't share any useful tips, didn't explain her method, and honestly, shockingly, didn't offer up anything useful to the audience. The normies had to hold down the fort but they were basic as hell and they simply could not carry the episode by themselves.
I probably won't watch any further. What a disappointment.
Holy shit you weren't kidding! Looked her up and she's 139cm tall! Anyone below the 150 mark is alarmingly short!god this is extremely my shit
I will never get tired of seeing this tiny Japanese woman inflict these families with incredible amounts of dread as she walks up to their home to take away all their personal belongings
I'm watching the show right this minute and this is making me laugh harder than it deservesFamily: Wow I hope Marie Kondo the master of tidying will help us get our shit together
Marie Kondo: Hello! For the first step in tidying
Family: Yes we hope this will wor-
Marie Kondo: Take all your shit & put it in this room
Family: Wh-
Marie Kondo: Cause I'm gonna burn it all

Okay almost done with 1.5 episodes of this and it is kiiiiiiinda lame
I think I'm better off reading the actual book
Actually, I don't think I really mind the way it is presented as it is since I've seen a handful of other house/lifestyle shows -- even with the contrived overplaying of emotions at points. I think it's because given the reputation that preceded Kondo, I was kind of hoping for something more substantial from it and little more tact, so I'm disappointed on that end. I also jumped ahead too (watched half of 1, all of 4) so I'm most likely missing something I guess.The show is fun/a bit more neatly wrapped together in terms of presentation
The audiobook is goddamn incredible and I've probably tossed oue 20-30% of my stuff every time I listen to it, just rapid fire

Also I have such mixed emotions aboutMarkon the Devourer of HouseholdsKondo herself lol. One minute, I find her overt cuteness seriously annoying -- the next minute, it is admittedly enamoring.

Just started watching with my wife last night, and reorganized my dresser tonight. I love the folding system.
She's so tiny. I feel like I could probably fit 150 of her in the garage.
All hail the queen.
Her book is pretty life-changing. my wife and I got rid of so much shit.
