Organize the Kitchen
The nesting mode is taken to new levels when one is preparing for a family addition. For me, the key word for every room is organization. It’s time to strip down to the basics. I’m starting with the kitchen. What does a gal do when she finds ten identical plastic spoons in various different drawers, cabinets, storage boxes, and empty grocery bags? I guess I had deja vu every time I went to the grocery store. The same light bulb was going off a la Groundhog Day.
I love my pantry drawers!
I may shop hormonally at times, but I’m obsessed when it comes to organization – especially in the kitchen (and the bathroom for that matter). One of my favorite products for great kitchen design is simple – turning your shelves into drawers – I did it in my pantry and love it. A great company, aptly named ShelvestoDrawers.com, provides a good product. It works for a kitchen redesign as well, and will add value to your home. I’m sure you’ve heard my girl Lisa LaPorta say it a million times on Designed to Sell – kitchens sell homes!
I wrote Eight Easy Tips Family Friendly Tips for Kitchen Organization which is a collection of things I’ve learned from my own kitchen design efforts. I’m embarking on my own kitchen organization over the next few days, and I’ll keep you posted on how many anxiety attacks I’ve averted with Snickers bars.
Lots of drawers are great for organizing!
