  • Hello Everyone, Im so excited to show you my dresser and how i organized it. I made some easy and affordable Custom dividers made out of foam board, super fun & fast DIY. I also embellished the side of my drawers by using a decoupage technique which is just gluing craft paper cut outs into a surface, Its a great way to update your furniture on a budget. The best part is that my clothes in neatly organized and folded using Marie Kondo's Folding technique " The Konmari Way" it looks professionally done but most importantly i can see and access my clothes efficiently. I hope you enjoy this video, please give it a thumbs up if you did and don't forget to subscribe to my channel!

    Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included czcams.com/users/postUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.

    Folding clothes the “Konmarie way”? My uncle now a retired WWII vet, showed me how to fold clothes like this 30 years ago!! As a child I always admired how he folded socks, underwear and made his clothes stand up in the drawer. He also gave lessons on ironing clothes and boot shining!!

      When I started nursing many years ago, we had to do beds with military precision, and folded corners. The matron would check if the alignment of the hospital name on the blanket was in the correct position on the bed, and if a coin could be bounced off the bed because it was folded tight enough. I imagine patients felt like they were being restrained in the bed...lol...but thats how it was. At the private school we went to skirts were measured, and also regulation underwear, huge big bloomers like parachutes .

    Hi! You have done a very good job! I have some questions and objections for this folding method...Why folding in the front side? It is not practical to fold the front side of a T shirt. Αs a result the front side is hidden and is not easy to identify the one specific t shirt you want to wear. The monochrome view is beautiful, but what do you do? Do you open everything to find what you want?

    I use Foam core every day at work ,here’s a little trick that might help . Add 1” more on each end . And core them on opposite sides at the 1 inch Mark . It should look like a long Z .it should make it more secure in your drawer ,you can also add low tack 3M tape . We use this stuff called snott tape . It’s made by 3M. But that’s what we call it the “Film Biz” . I’m sure it has a more official name. it comes in half inch and quarter inch with.

      @julies7328 Před 5 lety +1

      This is a great tip. I understand about the "Z" shape. But can you clarify what you mean: "core" them on opposite ends? I know I need to bend them, but should I cut into it at the 1" mark at the top first?

    • @rubberstamperatheart
      @rubberstamperatheart Před 5 lety +2

      @@julies7328 I was wondering the same thing, and then it hit me that it's a typo... she meant to say, "SCORE" the foam board on opposite sides. Whatever side you score across the foam board, when 'bent' to a 90-degree fold, the score is "inside" the corner that is formed, not on the outside of the fold. (Hope that makes sense!)

    The color coordination looks beautiful, but when I reach for a top it’s most important for me to know if it’s sleeveless, short sleeved, long sleeved, or a turtleneck. So I categorize by that first, *then* by color within each of those sections. Your way is prettier, though! 😍😘

  • @irenitele8497
    @irenitele8497 Před 5 lety +2

    I have just been watching Marie Kondo do the folding and she does not do such a "tight" rectangle ehere you can catch the side of the head opening. Also she leaves an inch in the first fold, so it then dits better. If someone is interested I recommend watching the original way first (she talks about sending love to the clothes and other interesting stuff). But I commend you on your drawer decoration ideas.
