Tips for Organizing the Dreaded Clutter of the Kitchen

Hate kitchen clutter as much as I do? Here are some tips that have helped me stay organized most of the time!
 
They say the kitchen is the heart of a home, but it can also be the headache of the home if it’s not organized and maintained, am I right? That said, I've learned a few things over the years, and I'm pretty sure the key to mastering kitchen organization (and kicking those headaches to the curb) is finding a system that makes sense to you! At a loss? Try kitchen “zones.” Read on to learn more!
 

Zone 1: Everyday Items

These are the things you use multiple times a day like plates, bowls, cups, flatware, and serveware. Store these pieces close to where you will use them—for example, glasses near the refrigerator and flatware near the dining area.
 

Zone 2: Cooking + Baking items

Store pots, pans, measuring cups, cutting boards, and mixing bowls near the stove and oven. Baking sheets and muffin tins can fit vertically near your oven’s thin cabinet.
 

Zone 3: Coffee + Bar Items

Zone 3 is my fave! This zone houses essentials for your morning coffee and evening wine. Keep items set apart and easily accessible by designating a particular kitchen cabinet or section of the pantry.
 

Zone 4: Pantry + Storage Items

Zip-close bags, Tupperware, aluminum foil, and plastic wrap should be stored together for easy post-meal clean-up. Keep dry goods, spices, and small kitchen appliances in your pantry, and consider clear containers to keep a handle on when your dry goods are running low.
 
A few more words of encouragement about kitchen organizing: If at first you don’t succeed, try, try, again! You’ll eventually find a system that works for you!
