55 Most Effective Organization Ideas For A Tidy Kitchen. P3

31. Design an area for wine and drinks

A regular one can become the ultimate beverage holder, where you store your favorites and categorize them by type.

32 Store large plates vertically

With large baking dishes and deep dishes, you can store them vertically instead of stacking them on top of each other, which is difficult to access and takes up space.

33 Add refrigerator egg compartment

These pre-designed egg holders simply fit into the cabinet with a clip underneath the shelf.

34 Use dedicated knife drawers

These drawers save space, keep knives sharp and safe.

35 Store dry foods in clear containers.

This arrangement adds aesthetic appeal to your kitchen. Transfer all your nuts, grains, pasta, and baking ingredients into glass jars, marking each jar with a custom chalkboard label.

36 Organize Wall Items Using Pegboard

These brightly painted pegboards will be a focal point in your kitchen. Hooks can be used to hang cups, measuring cups, and other cooking utensils.

37 Use sliding doors to hide clutter

If you use an open shelving system, consider installing a sliding door, to easily conceal the inevitable clutter.

38 Sort items by color

By grouping items by color, it increases aesthetics and reduces clutter.

39 Using the spice drawer

Tired of digging in the back of your spice cabinet just to find that one item? This smart drawer from ShelfGenie holds all your spices.

40 Reserved for special places

For seamless organization, use dividers that match your drawer interiors, often made from different types of bamboo.

41 Install the bracket

If you have some open space that you are not using, install shelves. They are not as bulky as cabinets and they will be a great storage place for your colorful and cute glassware.

42 Create areas for documents

Use the inside of cabinet doors so everyone in your family knows where to find grocery lists, coupons, recipes, and WiFi passwords. Add a plastic bag to store coupons and receipts!

43 Use high and low baskets

The lower baskets are for storing items that are safe for small children to reach, while the upper baskets are for items that are used less often or that you need to keep out of reach of children.

44 Make the Most of Your Drawers

45 Keep pots and pans near the cooking area

It's best to keep pots, pans, and cooking utensils close to the grill. Mount a magnetic knife rack on the left side of the stove and a rack to hold your most-used pots and pans on the right (or vice versa).

46 Try the dowel tool to organize drawers

This allows you to store large dishes in a deep drawer below instead of storing them on the cupboard, making them easier to access and store.

47 Get creative with storage shelves

Even if you don't have a dedicated pantry, you can still incorporate these organizational ideas into your kitchen. Take wine glass storage, for example: Mount a hanging wine rack under the cabinets to save space and keep glasses from knocking over each other.

48 Hanging Towel Bar Over Sink

Nail a metal bar to the empty wall above your sink and use it to hold anything you need to keep within reach: soup spoons, cheese graters, spices, etc.

49 Turn One Shelf Into Two

With small shelves, you can multiply your storage space vertically, giving you more room to store all your dishes.

50 Organize Your Pantry Like a Store

Organize your pantry by following the "first in, first out" rule. Basically, place the boxes and containers with the longest expiration dates behind anything that's been opened or is about to expire and toward the front. Keep everything organized with clear bins, labels, and containers.

51 Add "Drawers" to Deep Cabinets

Store tablecloths, cloth napkins, or even tablecloths that you only use at Christmas — in durable plastic baskets. The best part is that these baskets are easy to pull out and see without having to dig through them.

52 Store the pan with lid horizontally.
It seems that no matter how much we try to keep our pots and pans organized, they still end up messy — and noisy. Stack your pans, cutting boards, lids, and baking sheets horizontally to minimize clutter.

53 Share kitchen utensils

Drawer dividers aren't just for forks, knives, and spoons. You can also adjust them to accommodate large, small, and differently shaped utensils.

54 Use iron basket to store things on high

These easy access baskets are great for organizing any extra items on the top shelf. Just be careful when placing heavy items in the bins as they can be harder to reach.

55 Use a bench with storage underneath

A breakfast nook bench takes up less space than a dining chair and doubles as under-seat storage.
