How to order the bag with the marie kondo method

Be honest…

Can you tell what exactly you have in your bag? Do you need everything inside? Is it hard to find something? Does your bag weigh what is not written? If you have answered yes to any question, perhaps you do need to follow Marie Kondo's advice … And if you have answered yes to all of them, you urgently need to put them into practice! Don't worry, they are easier than you think.

Konmari even in the bag!

Checked! The tricks of Marie Kondo, world famous order expert, have a life beyond the closet. We have applied their method to order the bag and … it works!

Empty it daily

Yes, yes, as you read it. According to Marie Kondo, every day when you get home, take out everything you have in your bag, everything …

Everything in its place

You need to find a place in your house where you can empty your purse, and put everything in its proper place: mobile, keys, tissues, purse, mini toiletry bag …

What do you really need?

The crux of the matter is that the place where you deposit it is a place where you can clearly distinguish the essential from the superfluous, and that allows you to save things from one day to the next.

Many advantages

Emptying your bag every day can make you lazy at first, but it has many advantages. The main one is that every day you will fill it with what is essential, so you will stop carrying old receipts, expired discounts … And excess weight in your bag is one of the causes or aggravating factors of back pain.

Time to start relaxing

Also, emptying your bag when you get home in the afternoon allows you to take a few minutes to disconnect from your life away from home and connect with your "home self." Sometimes we return home with the rush of day to day and we find it difficult to relax. This mini ordering break will help you break the frenzy of everyday life.

You will change more bags

Another advantage! By filling your bag every day, it makes it easier for you to change your model every day - if you feel like it - so you won't have the feeling of always wearing the same thing.

Yes to compartments!

When you go to fill it in the morning, follow the same tactics that we apply to order and fold the clothes (such as putting everything together and vertically) inside the bag. The bags with pockets and dividers are the most recommended, since they allow you to have everything vertically and in sight. And so you no longer have to search forever in the background.

Organizers

Bag organizers are also very useful. It is a kind of toiletry bag, with many compartments, that is inserted into the bag. When you get home you just have to take out the organizer and store it in the place you have designated. Ideally, you should also empty the organizer, to ensure the next day that you only carry what you really need.

Don't forget about cleaning

According to some studies, that beloved accessory that you carry hanging from your hand can accumulate more germs than some of the toilets in the bathroom … So clean it from the outside but, after emptying it, shake it and if necessary vacuum all the dirt that has been deposited. If the inner lining is fabric, you can clean it with a sponge dampened with soap and water.

If the bag is made of leather

You can treat it with a specific product or protect it with a little colorless bitumen such as that used for shoes or the protector of leather upholstery.

Dry it too

After cleaning the bag and before putting it in place, make sure to dry it well. This will prevent the proliferation of fungi and bad smells.
