    It seems to be some sort of magic or immense cognitive struggle to many people to perform to the basic, logical task of folding things in an organized and intelligent way. I cannot understand what is so special about the way these clothes are folded. Anyone who has an IQ of at least 90, washes, and segregates own clothes have likely figured it out by themselves. A 10-year child old discovers such a logical way of folding when sorting out their own wardrobe. Unless someone is clinically lazy and/or disorganized. Also, that little gap left in folding is completely arbitrary. It is pathetic that so many people need to learn how to perform such a basic task... What's next? Lessons in how to intelligently attach the toilet roll on the wall or brush the teeth? *actually I would not be surprised that many people reverse the toilet roll incorrectly by putting it facing the wall or wash their teeth in a slapdash, lazy way

You know you have a lot of jeans & Ts when you're looking up how to maximize drawer space... On YT... At 2am...as you're putting the laundry away! Why now?

    Me too. Especially with relatives that are no longer alive - my grandma bought me these dolls, she had not a lot of money but saved and picked them out just for me. Or my uncle’s stamp collection that meant the world to him. I feel awful to get rid of something like that. But I just don’t have the space and don’t really want the items anyway, I just don’t want to feel like a bad or ungrateful person. It’s so hard! But also - they gave me these things to enjoy, not to burden me with them. So idk why I feel so bad about it. I’m going to start by getting rid of ONE thing, and take pictures of it just in case I ever want to look back on it. I think it’ll be easier to keep going after that, once I see that the world didn’t come to an end lol

    If you have kids, change it up with any outfit set! My little one has a ton of 2 piece pajamas, which made it hard for her to pair them when I had all the tops and bottoms seperate, in seperate drawers. So I put these "PJ Burritos" together! You fold the shirt totally, then take the pants, fold them in half short ways, and put the shirt on the end of the pants (the foot end) now roll the whole thing up... And.. Voila! A PJ burrito! My kid loves pretending to eat them when she pulls a pair our for the night. Great Kondo Mod!

    Someone may already have mentioned this... I don't like the fold marks on a turtle neck or t-shirt, after they've been packed in a drawer for a while. So -- when I take a shirt out of the drawer -- I grab the spray bottle that I use for hair, iron, etc., and spritz the fold marks lightly, front and back. And voilà! By the time I'm ready to put on the shirt, it's dry and the fold marks are gone.

    ありがとうございました Kondo san. You and this method are changing my life for the better. I started the process a year ago and due to 50+ years of stuff collected and inherited I was drowning in stuff!. I’m ADD and very creative but clutter kills my creativity. Thanks to your method I have a better focus on simple, beautiful, peaceful, organized living so that my natural creativity can flourish and thrive! I already had the character trait that I didn’t want things in my life or my garden that didn’t have multiple purposes or uses. I don’t want lots of beautiful things just to look at them on a shelf. You just have more work to keep them dusted. I just needed a way to organize my thinking about my belongings and what is important to me!

    I've been folding similiar too this ever since I figured out too my own laundry around 8 ( my family is super messy and no one taught me) my mindset was why wouldn't I make my clothes as tiny as possible for more room in my dresser for toys 😂😅

    I have folded a lot of uniforms in my life so far.....once you have folded the sides, roll the garment....that way it takes lest room and never wrinkles.

    I love this way of folding! I'm doing a reset of my wardrobe, clearing out stuff for donation or tossing and keeping only what I like. The only issue I'm finding with this is I have to go slightly off-script because I'm a bigger woman so my clothing isn't slim like all the ones she shows. Pants and shorts have excess crotch material. But, I'm finding my own way of getting it done. Now I have the satisfaction of looking into my drawers and seeing nice, neat packages that I can pluck out.

    I am following Marie's methodology in feeling spark joy while deciding my stuff stay or leave. However, I have a concern on this folding method that creates press lines. I am afraid I need to ironing my outfits again before dress.

    It won't create press lines since the folding method and storage allows breathing room. However, some material will inevitably crease. These clothes are best hung up! Marie Kondo explains this in her book :)

    Folding properly holds the cloth taut and erases wrinkles, making the material stronger and more vibrant! You don’t need to make a sharp crease by running your fingernail along the edge as you would in origami. If you apply a firm pressure, the garment will keep its shape long term.

  • @Tinkerlooful

    One point to note….Clothes do have wrinkles in some spots when you are ready to wear them…Some more than others, and for leggins and such it doesn’t much matter, but tops/pants sometimes it does. If you have the space to hang clothes, why not, they’ll have less wrinkles and material gets to breath. I’ve been rectangular folding my clothes for years and when traveling folded and rolled, so all clothes fit in carry-on luggage, but I never thought to store clothes the same way in a drawer at home, because, I did have to iron some things once I got to my travel destination. Love her idea to be thankful for clothes/linens as you fold…I always grumble through this task…But wouldn’t hurt me to be mindful of the blessing …Like…Spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.
