• 🧹 Week 5, Day 1: sort your komono into sub-categories

  Komono is a large category – it’s best to tidy by sub-category so you know how much you have in each group. Today, gather all of your miscellaneous belongings in one place – everything from office stuff and athletic equipment to scented candles and sewing supplies. Pile like with like.

• 🧹 Week 5, Day 3: tidy the kitchen - and cook!

  Kitchen komono encompasses everything from spices to the spice rack. Start with storage containers and appliances. Take this opportunity to wipe down cabinet shelves, clean inside drawers and spruce up the fridge. Then move onto foodstuffs and discard any expired items from the pantry and refrigerator.

• 🧹 Week 5, Day 4: tidy bedding, bath & beauty supplies

  Today, tidy all of your linens and bedding – including those you don’t use regularly. If you frequently host visitors, it’s worth having extra sets of sheets and blankets on hand; otherwise, these items take up a lot of room. Bedding stored indefinitely often smells of mildew – you wouldn’t want to let guests use it anyway! Take a whiff and tidy accordingly. After bedding, move on to bath and beauty supplies: This sub-category includes all your lotions, potions and soaking salts. Discard any products that are expired or past their prime.

• 🧹 Week 5, Day 6: turn tidying into a game

  If you’re tidying with others – especially kids – make it playful. See who can sort through their items the fastest or repurpose an object into something that sparks joy. If you’re tidying on your own, celebrate with a relaxing bath or a foot soak in your tidied bathroom. Tidying is a long process, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun!

• 🧹 Week 5, Day 7: tidy digital files

  In “Joy at Work,” Marie’s book on organizing your professional life, she and her co-author offer advice on how to tidy digital data – from files and emails to apps. Today, tidy digital komono by sub-category; as you determine what to keep and what to delete, use joy and necessity as your criterion – your banking app might not give you a thrill of delight, but you should keep it if it helps you stay on top of your finances.
