The idea of starting the New Year with a fresh, clean house is appealing but cleaning out the entire household from top to bottom may seem like a daunting task if not for the eight-week tidying challenge from KonMari. The challenge, created by organization expert Marie Kondo, shares "bite-size" everyday tasks so that the cleaning process feels more manageable than it does overwhelming.
The eight-week challenge kicks off with daily tasks like envisioning a dream home space, making a vision board and taking "before" pictures. Over the course of the challenge, participants will be guided through organizing their clothes, books and household papers, and week wight is all about bringing more joy into the home. Those who finish the challenge are encouraged to share their completed tidy spaces with #mykonmari.
