5 Container Store essentials for Marie Kondo-ing your work space Always stay organized.

Marie Kondo's less-is-more approach has been the mantra of many when it comes to decluttering their homes, organizing what's left, and feeling joyful in the process. And while Kondo's main focus has been the home, anyone can apply the same principles to the way they organize working spaces or their office.

After you've tossed out the items that don't "spark joy," or in the case of a business, items that no longer serve a purpose or help you in your day-to-day workload, you can get to organizing the rest of your documents, office supplies, and devices.

To help you there, we've rounded up five affordable organizational products that will help you effectively Marie Kondo your work space. You'll be surprised how much mental clarity and energy you have just by giving your pens a new, tidy home.
