When organizing kitchen cupboards put the most commonly used items on the lower shelves and less frequently used items up higher. I am very tall so I have to be careful when I’m organizing kitchens because my lanky reach makes me think all shelves are very accessible😆

Check out these zen utensil drawers🥰They are totally adjustable which made customizing these drawers easy. I wish I had these at my house! @ Kitchener, Ontario

Open shelving is awesome in a kitchen. In this space it was used to display some beautiful pottery, plants and cutting boards. I loved the end result.

Pantry storage- here are those grey baskets again from Dollarama 😍 I’m also a big fan of containers for cereal. We are pretty obsessed with cereal in our home and generally have a few boxes on the go. The kids serve themselves most days and they have a much easier time getting the cereal in the bowl when it’s dispensed from a container rather than the box. It also keeps the cereal nice a crisp!

I love clear bins for toy storage. It allows the littles to see what’s inside the bins and also offers a way to keep little pieces together. I’m not opposed to these IKEA bins. They are great for blocks, play food, dolly clothes etc. You just can’t see what’s in them and they don’t label easily. I firmly believe in working with what you’ve got. @ Kitchener, Ontario

Pot lid organizers. Not just for pots lids. They are great for cookie sheets and muffin tins so you don’t have to dig for what you need. @ Kitchener, Ontario

Every Mom knows the struggle of keeping up with growing littles. I recommend keeping the next size up in a clear bin in the closet so you can easily see and grab needed items. Keep another clear bin for items they have gown out of if you have the space. Then once it’s full, store it for a sibling or give it away to a friend or family member with little ones. @ Kitchener, Ontario

I like to store Tupperware with the lids on (not tight). Give it a try. You will never have to hunt for that pesky lid again. Fun fact- when you do this you will figure out that you have and extra 36 lids with no matching containers 🤪

I’ve added a couple things here that I’d like to mention. First are the under-shelf baskets ($4 at dollarama) and second are these great baskets (also $4 at dollarama). I’ve used the grey baskets several times for various projects and they always look great.

Organized utensil drawer. You know you want it! ❤️
