The classic illustrated guide to living a clutter-free life, from
tidying expert and Netflix show host Marie Kondo. Marie Kondo's
first book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying, transformed the
homes and lives of millions of people around the world. Spark Joy
is her in-depth tidying masterclass, a line-illustrated,
room-by-room guide to decluttering and organising your home. It
covers every room in the house - from the bedroom and kitchen to
the bathroom and living room - as well as all the items that occupy
their spaces. Charming line drawings explain how to organise your
house and apply Marie Kondo's unique folding method to all your
clothes, including shirts, trousers, jackets, skirts, socks and
bras. The secret to Marie Kondo's unique and simple KonMari tidying
method is to tidy by category and to focus on what you want to
keep, not what you want to get rid of. Ask yourself if something
'sparks joy' and suddenly it becomes so much easier to understand
if you really need it in your home and your life. Except tidying up
is not just about transforming your home: when you surround
yourself with things you love, you will find that your whole life
begins to change.
Dress [with] Sense is the perfect guide for fashion lovers of all
ages keen to embrace a more ethical and environment-friendly
approach to their wardrobes that is also economical, stylish and
practical. This timely book is organized into four chapters -
'Buy', 'Wear', 'Care' and 'Dispose' - each containing a short
introduction with essential information followed by practical tips
and illustrated case studies to help you make the first step
towards a more sustainable wardrobe. It concludes with a rich
reference section recommending not only the best ethical fashion
labels and collections but also eco-friendly fabrics, standards and
certifications, cleaning methods, renting, swapping and recycling
initiatives, and much more. Here is finally the ideal 'green' and
fashion-focused complement to the decluttering craze started by
Marie Kondo's best-selling The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying.
