Kitchen
Kitchen clutter doesn’t just refer to the inside of your fridge. It might also be cluttered counterspaces, cabinets full of toppling container towers, and utensils that you only use once a year.
Start with the surfaces by decluttering the countertops. Counterspace is essential for meal preperation, so try to clear your workspaces of everything but a few essential items. This might be a coffee maker or essential countertop microwave (or better replace the countertop microwave with an over the range microwave).
Find homes for everything you cleared off the countertop. Store kitchen items closest to where you will be using them. This might mean putting cooking utensils close to the stove and baking supplies near your stand mixer. Then go through your cabinets and purge any items that you haven’t used in over a year.
When it comes to small appliances that you love to have, such as your waffle maker or ice cream maker, consider how often you use it.The rule of thumb is that if you haven’t used it in the last year, then get rid of it. This is also a good time to go through plastic or storage containers that don’t have lid matches and get rid of those containers that drive you crazy with leaks and other problems.
