Organizing Kitchen Chaos

As you all know, I love me some Pinterest.  I have compiled some tricks and tips regarding one of the hardest-working rooms in your house.  I hope you discover something new today!

I love the idea of using a magazine rack to organize pot lids!  This article has several great suggestions for using containers to organize your kitchen and make it aesthetically pleasing.

 

Short on cabinet space?  Have too many canned items stacked on top of and behind each other?  Check out this tutorial on how to DIY a great cabinet.  This particular cabinet fits between the refrigerator and the wall and holds canned goods.  I think this could also be a great option for a large spice collection. If you shrink it down you could even install it in a cabinet!

 

I love a good cleaning trick and, since it is sort of food related, I had to throw this in! There are a ton of stain and spot removers on the market.  I have had experience with many of them and only some of them actually live up to their claims.  I am a big supporter of OxiClean products but this tips is even better (and much cheaper!).  Mix one part of Dawn dish detergent and two parts hydrogen peroxide.  Either dip the stained material into the mixture of pour it on top.  It will disappear!  It's awesome!  I saved two shirts doing this.

First I want to apologize for not having the source for this pic.  I found it on Pinterest and when I clicked the source there it took me to someone else's blog ... who then acknowledged that they got it off Pinterest .. so there ya go.  If you know the REAL source .. let me know and I will update and give credit asap.  Any way .. moving on..

I do not currently have a proper pantry but I can guarantee that this will be happening in my house when I get one!  I think this is such a great use of space.  I love that the "peg board" idea, typically reserved for garage spaces, is transformed for something useful in the kitchen.  The hanging baskets is great too because you can reposition them based on what's inside.  Love it!

OK .. this is just perfection!  I LOVE a good before-and-after and this certainly did not disappoint!  If you go to the source you will actually see a kitchen overhaul .. which is quite fitting for this post!  So much inspiration!

So if you are harboring some clutter in your kitchen and can't seem to find anything .. check some of these tips out!  A little organization can go a long way!!
