Let’s talk about the heart of every home: the kitchen. Not only is it the space where we congregate, cook and use to dump our bags after a day in the office, it’s the space where form and function collide.
If you want to take your kitchen organisation to the next level, follow these five quick wins:
- Group items in stylish trays
This helps to curate functional spaces around your kitchen and contain items that could lead to clutter. We love adding pops of texture through wooden or marble trays and group items like oils and seasoning near the stove.
- Display items intentionally
Open shelving around your kitchen gives a great opportunity to curate your kitchenware like it’s art. Dig out your fanciest dishes and serving ware to add areas of interest, but remember the key is to know what to display and what to store away.
- Utilise storage spaces strategically
Store items of similar shapes and sizes to the cabinets and drawers to make a smart use of space. Tall, narrow cabinets are ideal for upright chopping boards or baking trays.
- Create an essentials shelf
Now’s the time to utilise the space between your oven and fan. Hang a shelf to store essential items such as oils and seasoning in a beautiful way.
- Contain ingredients in jars
Using glass jars and containers to display ingredients and treats add dimension and shape to your kitchen. Pick items that are pleasing to look at and style them anywhere from the pantry and cupboards to the kitchen countertops.
