Today we give you some practical advice so that you can enjoy a visually clearer, more practical and above all, tidier bathroom, following Marie Kondo's method.

Get to know the KONMARI organization method

Marie Kondo, the expert in order and the best known organization in the world of the home, has been the creator of this practical method. The Konmari method defends the order of things by categories, never by places. Furthermore, it pursues harmony and joy in order to create environments with good energies and vibrations. In this way, we must discard the things that do not produce joy, placing those that do, in the first place and always in sight. Storage is a mistake! Do you want to know how to apply his theory to your bathroom?

 

Tips for a tidy bathroom

 

 

  • The bathtub space must always be clear.

 

 

Whether you have a bathtub or a shower tray, you should know that this space must always be clear of objects and products. Most of us put our gel and shampoo on the side of the bath or around it to keep them handy, but this is a mistake! It is also useless to put them on the wall with metal baskets. Take them when you need them, but once you have finished with your shower keep them in a hidden place so they are not in sight.

 

 

  • Watch what you put on your worktop or bathroom furniture

 

 

It's better that they're always clear of objects. Marie Kondo recommends using your bathroom furniture as storage for all your products. This way, with a good organization, you will have them more handy and hidden.  Your equipment will have all the prominence it deserves and your bathroom will look much cleaner and more elegant.

 

  • You can place small decorative elements that transmit peace and tranquillity. Anything that makes us happy, like candles or a vase with flowers.

 

  • Group the products according to their category or type, i.e. shampoo and gel, make-up, creams... Then use a basket for each category. This will make it much easier to find them every morning

 

  • The compartments will be very useful to you, they will help you to visually divide each category achieving a much more relaxed aesthetic.

 

  • Marie Kondo recommends using wooden or cloth boxes or baskets, never use cardboard as it will not withstand the humidity generated in the bathroom. Another very advisable option for its aesthetics and its qualities are wicker baskets, timeless, natural and very resistant.

 

  • Clean up and get rid of the products you do not use.

 

 

Many times we store products as if there was no end. This is also a mistake, most of them end up expiring before being used.

Clean up and keep only what you use in your daily life, what is necessary. You will save space and create a much more liberated and spacious look. Remember: keep only what you need and it will make you happy.

 

 

  • Always fold your towels vertically

 

Keep your towels in the compartments of your wardrobe but always keep them upright. This way they take up much less space and are visibly more tidy

Once you have made these small changes to your bathroom, you must maintain the established order so as not to suffer a rebound effect. If you manage to adopt and maintain them for at least a month, they will have become your routine, an organized way of life that will fill you with peace and tranquility.
