Organizing Kitchens

I am moving soon and I really want to start new and fresh with an organized place. So I have been drawing inspiration all over the Internet. One of my favorite hobbies is cooking and nothing compares to cooking in a kitchen that is organized. It's a menace to cook in a kitchen when I can't find what I need.  It can be disheartening for me. Although, my new kitchen is small I am using the best organizing techniques to get the best functionality out of my new kitchen.

♥ The first picture from Better Home and Gardens used a CD rack as a Tupperware lid holder.

♥ The second picture from Martha Stewart uses tension rods to divide baking pans and cutting boards. I have to be honest, unless I see this at the dollar store chances are I am not going out of my way to find them.

♥ The third picture is from Real Simple, this highlights different ways to use lofty shelves for your convenience to separate the different sized plates. This kitchen also arranges its items by how often you use them.

♥ The left picture is from Real Simple and it uses a desk organizer as a cupboard divider. 

♥ The right picture is also from Real Simple and they use an open cabinet look with baskets to keep it attractive. I am a sucker for those baskets, I have them in my room to keep it tidy.

♥ The Last picture is from Southern Living, it uses divided shelving as a new inventive way to store your plates.

I hope you were inspired.

More organized closets? Yes, Please.

Installing a closet system is one of the most effective organizing projects that I have done for myself. A daunting task? Yes indeed, but it is totally worth it. These unique closet systems are effective in their own way. This is how it works:

♥ The first closet allows you to have the clothes and accessories you wear most readily available

♥ The second closet can function as a dressing area, and of course, add a floor-length mirror

♥ The third closet is for those of you with a budget to build your dream closet. It allows for maximum storage options

♥ The fourth closet is great for the handy woman. Installing your own custom shelves will allow you to fit it to the specific needs of your space

♥ The fifth closet has double rods. This is ideal for smaller closets

♥ The sixth closet features cubicles. The possibilities are endless when dealing with cubicles...Stacking your things vertically enables a generous amount of clothing to be stored

I hope you were inspired.

DIY: Organize

 These are all very inspiring to me.  My favorite is the chalkboard dish display.  They are useful and I want to organize my home just like this. Which ones inspire you?

 

If you haven't noticed by now, I love to organize. This time I am giving you a glimpse of my inventive organized hair product system.  I had my hair products in a drawer horizontally but, I noticed that some of the products were leaking. Then I tried putting the products vertically in my cabinet but, I had too many products and the ones in the back weren't easily accessible.  I was able to add new cabinet space by using this shoe divider.

 What I ♥ about this system:

 ♥ It's removable (In case you have company)

♥ You can hang it on the back of the door or inside of a closet for easy hiding

♥ My hair products are visible and easily accessible

♥ You can transport it

♥ Shoe dividers are very inexpensive

♥ Keeps your products vertical, so none of them will leak.

I hope this inspired you.

Next to my Plush Serta mattress, my closet is the most important thing in my room. It loves to be organized and it loves to put on a show for all guests. So I decided to put it on display for all of you. She was very pleased with the results of our new organizing extravagaza. She especially loved the shoe display and she thought the rolled up T.Shirts were inventive. She Loves how I am able to see what I need as soon as I open her up, although she is going to miss seeing my face as I rummage through her to find the perfect pairing. And I'm sure she's going to miss laughing at me when I get fustrated and throw my hands up in desperation (Normally, it's just one finger). My closet thanked me for adding detailed touches like the wrapping paper I used to cover the stackable's fronts and the color coordinated T.Shirts and shoes. All my clothes are organized by the following categories: "Fun", "Business", "Going-out" and "She fancy huh".  She really loves all the T.L.C and attention she has been getting this past week.  What would make her the happiest closet in the world is when I read her all your lovely comments.

D.I.Y Organizing for the Spring Time

Here is a peak into my bedroom drawers.  Yes they are fully organized and I love it! I found these leopard organizers at Ross for 5.99 and went to work once I got home. This is the finished result.  Now there is a place for everything in my drawer and it is easy to remove the leopard organizer to find exactly what I need. More organizing ideas to come.

D.I.Y Organizing for the spring time

One of my favorite past times is organizing.  It relaxes me and it genuinely makes me happy to see the finished project. Is that weird?  Maybe so, but for me it's no cost therapy.

In order to achieve an organized look in a closet that has been over stuffed with junk, buy baskets to conceal your stuff. I choose these baskets from Ross because of the texture and warm color.  All these baskets were less then 12.99. In fact the smaller baskets that are the same are 6.99 and 7.99 and I used other baskets I had around the house.  I love an overall look that doesn't look too perfect.  Just to add interest I used a color palette instead of one color or I have a theme.  I used warm brown, reds and pops of colors.
