5 Small Kitchen Organization Hacks That Will Blow Your Mind

It’s often said that the kitchen is the hub of a house. But, who wants to spend time in a kitchen when it’s extremely messy?

Due to the nature of a kitchen, it’s a very cluttered place. If you have a small kitchen, it can be even worse. 

So, check out these kitchen organization hacks because, well, we all need them.

1. Store Your Spices ON Your Fridge

A great way to save some space if you’re lacking cupboard storage is to store your spices on your fridge. Don’t want to spend money on expensive magnetic pots?

Try making your own instead! All you’ll need is old jam jars, magnets, and very strong glue. Tada! 

As a result, not only will this look cool it’s also very practical. Need a little Tarragon? Grab it off the fridge! 

2. Put up Shelves on Every Single Wall Space

Don’t have enough cupboards? Try putting up shelves on every free wall space. Keep the pots and pans which are aesthetically pleasing up on these shelves. 

Organize your shelves so that what you need is closest to the area you’ll be using it. For example, coffee equipment is next to the coffee machine, while mugs and a teapot are by the kettle. 

If you then need to move house, you can easily take down the shelves, fill in the holes and claim back your deposit. 

If you own your own home and would rather add cabinets, get in touch with RTA Cabinet Supply for help.

3. Get Yourself a Magnetic Backsplash

Forget buying a knife block. If you have small worktops, this will only steal space you don’t have. 

Instead, get yourself a magnetic strip and once again use the walls. Your backsplash is an area which is regularly ignored. 

Use this space to store knives on magnetic strips instead. Not only are they very handy here, but it’s also easy to tidy away after cleaning. 

4. Keep Cool Stuff on the Counters

Do you have more sideboard than you do cupboards? Utilize this space. Instead of simply stacking up ugly packets, buy yourself some attractive jars. 

Keep your most used food items in these pretty jars on the top of your workspace. For example, flour, sugar, and coffee can be kept in separate jars and look great.

5. Get Yourself a Julia Child Pegboard

Coming back into style especially among those who don’t have much kitchen space is the pegboard. Julia Child, the much-loved American chef, made this look popular.

It’ll also make tidying up a lot easier and you can simply wash, dry and hang up your pots and pans rather than bending down to stack them all in a cupboard.

Kitchen Organization Hacks Take Some Thinking

When it comes to kitchen organization hacks, you need to think about what YOU need most from your kitchen. 

Have the items you regularly use easily on hand and, if your kitchen is very small, store or donate items which you don’t need. All of us are guilty of hanging onto things we don’t ever use!
