7 Kitchen Organization Ideas
Because heaven knows, we could all use a more organized kitchen. I really love some of these ideas, some are rustic, some are modern, and some are just plain practical!
These built in open shelves and plate holders make it easy to stay organized, but show off all of your beautiful china at the same time!
Oh my goodness, wouldn’t you just love to have your own coffee stand? Not only does this add a great visual element to the room, but it also frees up space on the counter, as well as in cabinets where you would normally keep all of those coffee cups and sweeteners!
This “spice drawer” idea is a perfect way to store all of those teeny bottles that just don’t seem to fit anywhere else! Just make sure all of the lids stay on tight or you will be vacuuming cumin out of corners for days!
I don’t know about you, but I think this might be the cutest and most creative way to hold and organize kitchen utensils that has ever been invented! Take the head of an old/antique rake, hang it on the wall, and bam! Perfect utensil holder!
Here’s another great storage idea- whether you you have a pantry, a cupboard, or just some shelves, these glass canisters are a fun way to keep your cooking supplies organized.
A basket or wooden crate is a great method for on-counter organization. Large, low boxes or baskets allow for a lot of different items of different sizes and heights to be organized beautifully in one spot, without creating a vision of clutter.
Finally, another great way to organize your kitchen AND your life is this pretty list board. You can make one of these with an old frame (with glass). Line the area behind the glass with burlap, then use a dry erase marker to write lists and reminders on the glass- it makes for a lot prettier picture than millions of notes stuck on the refrigerator!

August 2, 2013Thanks for posting these ideas. I like hanging things from the walls. I think its gives the kitchen another dimension. I also like the idea of pull out cabinets. They are a great use of storage space and they don't take up more room.
