Even before you start organizing, cleaning your countertops should be the first step. Clear up your workspace, then dive into those messy drawers, making sure you get rid of all the clutter.
Then, once you finish getting everything in place, set up a small herb garden indoors as a quick win without much effort. Not only will you yield fresh herbs for adding to your homemade sangria or garnishing homemade pizza, but productive plants are a happy accent that add life and vitality to dreary surroundings.
Those are the start and finish goals. Now, let’s get into the meat and potatoes of this fun household task.
Simple DIY Kitchen Organization Ideas
I practically live in my tiny kitchen and often stand there doing dishes while dreaming of the remodel we’ll do “one day.” On that fine day, I’ll have a mega pantry with sliding drawers inside of sliding drawers. Until then, I have to make the best of what I’ve got, which means taking the kitchen by the horns and keeping that beast organized.
These kitchen organization hacks are handy for making the most of your space. Ultimately, they will save you time and money. From rethinking the space above your cabinets to organizing what’s inside them, you’ll feel inspired and see your kitchen with new eyes.
This roundup inspires organizing the large scale down to the nook and crannies. You’ll definitely get some AHA moments, as in, “I never thought of storing my reusable bags like that. Brilliant!” After a quick trip to JOANN! or your local craft store, bring home essential kitchen tools for revolutionizing your kitchen experience.
For example, adding command hooks inside your cabinet door, lining the back wall of your cabinets with bright paper, using a lazy susan for your canned goods, or installing a heavy-duty wall-mounted pot rack for your pots, pans, and cast iron cookware are just a few cheap transformative hacks!
You can also bring light and beauty to unused crevices by thoughtfully placing mirrors, wall stickers, or twinkling lights in strategic areas. When you’re finished organizing, try a DIY all purpose cleaner to clean all the nooks and crannies.
Take some ideas and run with them. It’s your kitchen, lady! I want you to have the best experience in it possible. Start by firing up your diffuser with one of our invigorating ginger essential oil blends, brew a cafe Romano, and let the creativity flow!
