Reclaim Your Kitchen Counter Tops

So your kitchen is being overrun with stuff. Specifically, your countertops are cluttered and you want that space back. Things may have gotten so bad that you are considering bringing in a professional organizer to fix the problem. Naw, you can do it yourself in a jiffy, but you have to take action.

First things first, look at your kitchen counters and assess what is taking up your premium territory. Do you have containers with fruit, or veg in them? If so, they are bound for new homes. Place that fruit bowl in the center of your kitchen table, it not only will be off the counter, but we bet more of it will get eaten. It will be viewed more frequently, and in the case of fruit, well absence (aka -out of direct view) does not make the heart grow fonder. Get yourself a hanging three tiered basket, and place the veggies in it.

Are you staring at a big old block of knives? Say goodbye to the space hog, and hello to a magnetized wall strip. Not only have you reclaimed room, but this will make you look like a serious cook too. Please note this may not be suitable if there are young children around.

Now you are on your way to a better kitchen. Keep going, shift other
