{ Top 5 Areas to Organize in your Kitchen Simply }

Oh boy I can't believe I'm sharing these tips hahaha...I don't claim to be an "organizer" & actually Mark is soooo much better at organizing than me! I'm the cleaner & picker- upper , but he is the organizer for sure in our home! Well, since being down with my issues/ vertigo these last few months I had a lot of time to be in the house...I actually don't mind it but after all the events, some tragic like our dog passing etc.. I needed a fresh start to 2019 or as fresh as I could make it under the circumstances.. Our home is already pretty simple & organized & I'm just going to come out & say it, I CLEAN ALL THE TIME & enjoy it { I know, I'm crazy }, so that wasn't really an issue but there were spaces that we just let go or simply "tossed" items into, under or stuffed here & there ha. I had some free time & decided not only to paint our pantry { HERE } but also organize/ deep clean a few spaces & make them semi pretty! These are the most simple tips & I hope you enjoy them & you get inspired to declutter...the practical way... I didn't spend hundreds of dollars at the container  stores or have a personal organizer come in { not that it's wrong } , but I want to inspire EVERYONE, not just those who can spend a ton of money on projects!  Anyways, here are a few of my tips....


 Pantry 



  • Use crates/ Bins
  • Pitch expired food
  • Organize snacks/ cans etc..
  • Use labels if needed
  • Pitch out half eaten food.

Under Sink

  • Wipe under the sink
  • Pitch almost empty cleaners / expired cleaners
  • Use clear jars for dishwasher pods { you can keep track of how many }
  • Organize cleaners
  • Keep minimal cleaning scrubbers/ supplies

  • wrap cords nicely
  • Pitch rusted pots/pans
  • Pitch peeling pans


Cabinets
