15 Best Tips to Organize Kitchen Cabinets
Tip 1: Label Everything Inside Kitchen Cabinets
Get a label maker and organize according to what you use the most. Amazon label maker
Kitchen cabinets that are not full can be very frustrating when trying to find something quickly.
Make it easier on yourself by filling in any empty space with items of your least use in your kitchen. Then, when you really need that can opener or those measuring cups, they will be right at your fingertips.
Tip 2: Use Stackable pot and pan organizer
Using stackable pot and pan organizers will help you find the right lid for your fry pans. Just make sure that it fits within your cabinet! If not, these are cheap enough where you can buy a couple of different sizes. Amazon cookware organizer.
Tip 3: Use the Back of Your Kitchen Cabinets
I am always amazed when people do not utilize their backsplash area when it comes to storage in the kitchen!
Utilize this space by hanging baking sheets, pots, and pans, or even utensils that can be hung off cabinet knobs or hooks on a wall-mounted rack. Amazon plastic hooks
This is one of my favorite tips because it is so easy to do and makes such a huge difference in the appearance of your cabinets!
Tip 4: Use a Lazy Susan for Spices and Condiments Inside Cabinets
I have a friend who always asks her husband to get spices for her when she is cooking because they are so difficult to reach in the back of the cabinet.
A lazy Susan will allow you to spin around your most used spices and condiments, making them easily accessible while saving space! Amazon lazy susan.
This tip works well for any items that you use infrequently, but need easy access to when you do.
Tip 5: Try a Deep-Shelf Cabinet Organizer
If you find that your cabinets are becoming cluttered and difficult to organize, it might be time to invest in a deep shelf cabinet organizer.
These organizers allow you to store large items on the bottom of the cabinet and smaller items on the top, creating more space and easier access to everything.
Tip 6: Install Pull-Out Shelves or Racks Inside Cabinets
If you have cabinets without much depth, or if your cabinet shelves are hard to access and re-position, a pull out shelf will help make the most of every inch. Amazon pull out shelf.
This would work well in any space where there is a lack of depth or if you have a lot of items that need to be stored on shelves.
Tip 7: Hang pots and pans
If you have a lot of pots and pans, invest in some pot hangers. These are great because they free up counter space while keeping everything within easy reach when it is time to cook!
This works well if there isn’t much depth in your cabinets or if you’re short on storage space. Amazon pot hangers
Tip 8: Use a pegboard to hang utensils
This tip is great for organizing utensils, but it can also be used to hang other items in your kitchen. You can purchase a pegboard at any home improvement store and then you are free to organize anything that works best for you!
This would work well if there isn’t much depth in your cabinets or if you’re short on storage space.
Tip 9: Store appliances on the counter
- Only appliances that are used frequently, like a bread maker or Crockpot, etc, should be on your countertop. Other unused items should be in the cabinet.
Tip 10: Utilize kitchen drawer dividers
Kitchen drawer dividers are great for keeping silverware, utensils and small appliances organized in your drawers. They also allow you to keep these items from mixing together, which is especially helpful if there are a lot of different members in the household!
Tip 11: Use a tension rod to organize spices
A tension rod is a great way to keep spices organized and within easy reach.
This would work well if you have limited cabinet space or if you want your spices to be easily accessible. Amazon tension rod
Tip 12: Bakers racks
This creates additional storage space. I have often seen small kitchen tables turned into baking racks, but they can be just as useful when used for their original purpose!
Bakers racks are great because you can use them to store or display items while creating more counter space at the same time. Amazon bakers rack
Tip 13: Paper towel holder
Store plastic bags on holder. This is a simple way to free up drawer space while keeping your trash bags within reach.
Tip 14: Keep baking sheets stacked in the oven.
This is a great way to free up cabinet space and have easy access to your baking sheets!
This would work well if you don’t have a lot of cabinet space or if you want your baking sheets to be easily accessible.
Tip 15: Use an Over-The-Door Shoe Organizer
If you find that your canned goods are becoming cluttered, then an over the door shoe organizer is a great way to keep everything organized! Amazon shoe organizer
