pantry
Organizing my pantry has been a total game-changer for saving time and cutting down on kitchen stress. The first step for me was decluttering—getting rid of expired items and grouping similar things together. I started using clear containers and labeled glass jars for dry goods, and they’ve made such a difference! Baskets are my go-to for snacks, and shelf risers have helped me make the most of smaller spaces. It took a little time to set up, but now my pantry is functional and easy to use, which makes cooking and grocery shopping so much simpler.

refrigerator
Refrigerators tend to encourage disorganization with their tricky shelves, concealed drawers, and scattered to-go boxes. I’ve found that storing everything in clear containers helps to keep everything neatly organized and easy to access. I use glass pyrex for leftovers and produce storage and lazy susans for items like sauces and condiments.

drawers
Drawers are actually one of the easiest things for me to keep organized IF you have dividers. I’ve found that having dividers or compartments can truly make or break drawer organization. I found long wooden ones for drawers with my utensils and measuring cups and plastic ones with smaller compartments are perfect for junk drawers.

cabinets & counter tops
Most families already have a system for plates, cups, pots, and pans- but having a designated spot doesn’t always mean things are organized! My number one tip is to declutter, like do you really need 35 water bottles? Once you pair it down to what you actually use, storage solutions like stackable water bottle holders, shelf risers, and rack systems help to make cabinets more functional and clutter-free. This roll-out pan organizer shown above has been so easy for keeping pots and pans at arms reach.

under the sink
The area under the kitchen sink often gets overlooked, but these small stick-on storage containers are perfect for keeping dishwasher tablets handy!
