Just a reminder, this is what my kitchen looks like:
As you can see I am blessed with lots of cupboard space! I guess I wasn't use to it because I sure wasted a lot of it...but not anymore!
Here are a few before and after photos:
1. The cabinet that use to hold large bowls and an asparagus cooker (it was a gift) is now my baking cupboard.
2. All the large bowls and serving dishes have been moved down to the awkward corner cabinet. Before, this cabinet was filled with random things, ie: bread maker, roasting pan, serving dishes etc...it didn't make any sense, basically if I didn't know where to put it, into the corner cabinet it went! Eventually I'd like to put in some kind of a tiered lazy susan here.
3. Things that don't get used as often have now been stored in the cabinet above the fridge (such as the wok, juicer, food processor etc..
4. Which created less clutter in this cabinet:
5. All the vases have been moved to above the microwave:
6. My cookbooks have been moved down to a shelf that I can easily reach:
7. The cabinet next to the stove with easy access to cooking oils and spices is now de-cluttered:
8.The crazy messy cabinet with teas and hot chocolates now have water bottles and jugs:
And just a reminder of what my newly organized pantry looks like:
Side Note: Did anyone notice my little pug in photos 5 and 7? He was a gift that my parents gave me for Christmas one year because I love pugs. Let me introduce you to Horatio:
Unfortunately, my hubby hates pugs! So alas Horatio is confined to the cupboard. But he likes to sneak out every once in a while and surprise Michael in different places, like the fridge or his pillow!

Cute! I'm pretty sure you were organized before AND after ;)
ReplyDeleteYour cabinets look very well organized and more functional:) The pug is too cute. I have to say that I didn't notice him, but I had to go back through the pics and look for him!

seriously, i thought that pug was real! my friend hates pugs, but everyone uses that for gifts for her. poor girl has tshirts, and blankets, etc.
ReplyDeletealso, i love your dark cabinets-i have dark ones that aren't getting painted when we (eventually) tackle the kitchen, and it's nice to have some pretty inspiration for me amidst all this white cabinetry the blog world is showing!
You know, I never thought of putting my cookbooks in a cabinet. Hello counter space! Thanks for the idea. Gonna pin your post to my Pinterest organization board.
ReplyDeleteGreat organization! Thank you for sharing it at the party!
