How To Get The Most Out Of Your Kitchen

The kitchen is the heart of the home, we share meals with our families to nourish our bodies and strengthen our bonds. It’s the operation center in most homes. The room where we post calendars and reminders of all the daily tasks. However it isn’t always easy accomplishing those tasks if you’re not prepared and organized. Clutter and unorganization can make it hard to find things; it can cost you valuable time in preparing lunches in the morning, and meals at night.

The key is to take control, get rid of the items that are not used and to remember that organizing is an ongoing process

First ask yourself this question “what’s not working for me?’ and plan your attack.

When remodeling a kitchen designer can help you lay out your kitchen based on how you use it. It is important that you relay all of the appropriate information to the designer. Take inventory of everything you have in the pantry, cabinets, & drawers. Get rid of multiple items to alleviate storage clutter. Then think about how you use the kitchen “what do I use the most?” before putting things back decide how you use the kitchen by creating zones (food prep zone, cooking, baking and storage zone) and store items together that you use in that zone. For example if you are a person who loves to bake the designer can design an area where your mixer, baking goods and cookie sheets can all be together saving you time looking for things. Store things that you use on a regular basis up front in cabinets or drawers your holiday dishes and pots that are rarely used should be on high shelves or in the back of a cabinet. Categorize spices, canned goods and similar items and store them together for example (group all canned corn together on one shelf).
