Keeping You Informed with Linda Linfoot

CREATING A WELL ORGANIZED KITCHEN Whether you're whipping up a gourmet meal for friends and family or simply reheating leftovers, a well-organized kitchen makes everything easier. Making your kitchen more functional doesn’t always require a full remodel—sometimes, all it takes is optimizing what you already have to create a kitchen that truly works for you. As far as layout goes, you’re probably not going to be able to change a lot, but additions like a credenza or hutch for extra storage and serving space can keep the essentials within reach and the not-so-essential items stored away without creating clutter on the countertops. Drawer and cupboard organizers can be instrumental in keeping everything easily accessible and prevent your most commonly used tools from getting lost. Stick to grouping similar items together to not only cut down on visual clutter, but also to help you know what you’re running out of when putting together a grocery list. Using clear containers and baskets helps you see at a glance what you’re looking for and investing in a label maker is a common suggestion from professional organizers as well. Once everything in your kitchen has a home, you’ll want to ensure you have adequate lighting throughout helping you find what you’re looking for as well as create a more open and airy feeling to the room.
