Genius Ways to Organize Your Kitchen

How to Organize Your Kitchen

Under the kitchen sink is often a disaster! Stacking drawers can hold cleaners and other odds and ends, and you can hang cleaning gloves and rags on the cabinet door.

Instead of keeping bags of flour, sugar, rice, etc. around, use tall or stackable containers to keep them neatly organized in your cabinets.

Don’t want to spend money on pretty containers? No problem! Repurpose old coffee containers and oatmeal cans to create your own. Organization on a dime, literally!

Do you have cupcake liners for every season and holiday? Organize them once and for all in a tall, clear container. Tall mason jars work nicely, too.

Hang baskets on a tension rod above the counter to keep clutter off your countertops.

Are your pots and pans a mess? Straighten them out with a lid rack and a frying pan sorter. No more clanging and banging to find the pan you need!

Keep baggies, boxes of Jello, raisins, nuts, spice packets and other oddly-shaped kitchen items in wire baskets on the back of your pantry door.

Put all of your spices in a basket in the cabinet over the refrigerator or range to make use of those often under-used spaces.
