KonMari Method

I had the chance to reread The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up when I was on vacation. It was one of the books in the condo. I’m not a big accumulator of stuff. My husband and I follow the something in / something out method. When we acquire a new item, one or more things must go out.

Did you ever wonder what happens to the decluttered stuff? See the article below from the Wall Street Journal. Now the thrift shops are turning away donations. In Great Britain the number one donated book is The DaVinci Code; the thrift shops won’t accept any more copies.

Maybe this will start a trend of people just buying less in the first place.

  1. I have always preferred to not be weighed down with a bunch of stuff. I love empty spaces in a cabinet or closet! I really try to ask myself if I truly need something before I buy it.
