2024-07-31
Keeping your kitchen organized can feel like a never-ending battle, but it doesn’t have to be. Imagine opening your drawers and finding exactly what you need without rummaging through a chaotic mess. Sounds dreamy, right? This list of must-have items will transform your cooking space from cluttered to streamlined not only saving you space, but adding a touch of style to your kitchen as well.
Magnetic Knife Strip
Say goodbye to cluttered drawers and hello to easy access. A magnetic knife strip keeps your knives handy and your fingers safe. It can also be kind of stylish on your wall depending on your aesthetic and helps your knives stay sharp by preventing them from jostling around in a drawer. It just makes sense to keep something you use multiple times a day easily accessible too.
Stackable Measuring Cups
No more hunting for the right size for a recipe. Stackable measuring cups save space and keep your kitchen drawers neat. You’ll always have the perfect measure at your fingertips, and they nest together to minimize clutter. They’re often color-coded and magnetic too so they're easy to use and won't scatter around in the drawer.
Pull-Out Cabinet Organizers
Stop losing pans to the dark depths of your cabinets. Pull-out organizers bring everything within reach and save your back from endless bending and searching. These slide-out shelves maximize space and make it easy to see and grab what you need. They're typically easy to install yourself as an aftermarket addition too, no need for expensive new cabinetry.
Lazy Susan
Perfect for those hard-to-reach spices and condiments. Just give it a spin and voilà! Everything you need is right there, like magic. Lazy Susan's are great for organizing pantry shelves or kitchen cabinets. If you have awkward corner cabinets in your kitchen, these are a must.
Over-the-Sink Cutting Board
Maximize your counter space with an over-the-sink cutting board that has a built-in strainer for quick rinsing. This handy tool lets you chop and rinse without needing multiple bowls and taking up precious space for the rest of your meal prep work.
Label Maker
Label everything! From pantry jars to leftovers, a label maker keeps your kitchen organized and helps you avoid those “mystery meals.” Clear labeling means no more guessing games and ensures that everyone in the household knows where things go and what’s inside each container. Wait for a rainy weekend and attack your pantry with a label maker in hand — you'll love the result.
Drawer Dividers
Tame your utensil drawer with adjustable dividers. No more digging through a jumbled mess to find that one elusive whisk or spatula. These dividers can be customized to fit any drawer, so you can keep tools neatly separated and easy to find.
Pan Organizer Rack
Keep your pans neatly stacked and easy to grab with a vertical organizer. No more clanging and banging every time you need the skillet at the bottom. These racks can hold multiple pans and lids and make the most of vertical space while also keeping your kitchen noise-free.
Glass Storage Containers
Ditch the plastic and switch to glass storage containers. They’re durable, eco-friendly, and look way nicer in your fridge. Plus, you can see what’s inside, which means you’re more likely to eat leftovers before they go bad. Glass containers are also much safer in the microwave than plastic.
Magnetic Spice Jars
Stick magnetic spice jars to your fridge or a magnetic board. They save space and keep your most-used spices within easy reach. The clear lids make it easy to see what’s inside, and they often come with labels for easy identification.
Multi-Tier Fruit Basket
Keep your fruits and veggies off the counter with a multi-tier fruit basket. It saves space and improves airflow around your produce, so it will stay fresh longer while freeing up valuable counter space.
Adjustable Measuring Spoons
One spoon to rule them all! Adjustable measuring spoons save space even more so than the stackable kind. Simply slide to the desired measurement, and you’re good to go.
Under-Shelf Baskets
Utilize every inch of cabinet space with under-shelf baskets. They’re perfect for storing snacks, spices, or that stash of chocolate you hide from the kids. These baskets hook onto existing shelves, adding an extra layer of storage without taking up additional space and are perfect for maximizing your pantry layout.
Hanging Pot Rack
Free up cabinet space and show off your cookware with a hanging pot rack. It’s functional and gives your kitchen a rustic, chef-like vibe. These racks keep pots and pans within easy reach. There are all sorts of mounts to choose from including smaller wall-mounted racks and larger ceiling-mounted racks that hang over an island and make a statement depending on what works best for your space.
