Kitchen Organization Hacks

Now, let’s take a closer look at 5 awesome kitchen organization hacks.

1.  Tackle Paperwork!

Whether it’s your kids school papers or bills and junk mail, paperwork can pile up. One of the first things to do to avoid the build up is to head straight to the trash can as you head inside from the mailbox. Trash the junk mail before it even comes in your house!

With what is left, try this simple elementary school teacher hack! Label binder clips with where paper need to go. Bills, file, homework, schoolwork keepers, etc.

2. Add some tension!

Cookie sheets and cutting boards usually end up stacked on top of each other and then go unseen and unused. Try using small tension rods to turn them up on their sides. This way you can see them and keep them from getting cluttered.

4. Cake Stands To the Rescue!

I collect cake stands and use them for all kinds of things around my house. One way I use them is to curtail clutter on my kitchen counters. Cake stands aren’t just pretty, they are also a pedestal that can hold things off of the counter. This keeps things organized and gives you more counter space!

Use a cake stand to hold small kitchen tools, fresh fruit, salt and pepper or even car keys.
