For over a year now, we’ve applied the Marie Kondo Method to folding our clothes. It has created a significant difference in space and time. Space: there’s more of it. Time, less of it spent putting clothes away or looking for what to wear every morning. Why? because everything fits neatly together, visible and accessible. The tricky part, however, is getting items to look the same way after folding. In particular: Folding Tops Marie Kondo Method.
We all have them, we all own them and yeah, they come in different shapes, sizes, material and lengths. Folding them is not always… consistent. That’s why, it’s OFTEN the same person DOING ALL the folding in the household. Now, what IF I told you , you can get ALL the members in your family folding the same way??? Not impossible with a GUIDE!
In today’s video
I walk you through folding tops Marie Kondo Method for both adult as well as a kids sized using inexpensive household items: A medium sized (clean) box, folders OR a large paper (approx 11 ” x 17″). I also show you how to fold Marie Kondo Method without a guide and ensuring it’s done perfectly by all members of the family!
Of the whole laundry process, folding is a BEAST
Regardless of the number of baskets we’re living off of, folding doesn’t have to be difficult and can actually be quite fun! I know my kids like the new guide and look forward to using it whenever it’s folding time – which is daily (insert happy dance here) !
Now, their drawers are looking organized and neat. They’re proud to contribute this, to the ease of putting away and helping momma out!
