Kitchen Organizing Ideas

Today I’m sharing 40+ of my Favorite Kitchen Organizing Ideas- everything I use to make my kitchen more organized.

cabinet & drawer storage:

I have these Bamboo Drawer Dividers in several of my kitchen drawers. I have had this Bamboo Expandable Silverware Tray for years. Love them both! I use this inexpensive Wire Divider in my sauce pan drawer to hold all of the lids upright.

Speaking of love, I highly recommend this Kitchen Cabinet Pull Out Garbage Can! We have had the same one in our last two houses, and they really are the best!

food storage:

My very favorite storage containers for dry goods are these Container Store Rectangle Canisters. I have had them for almost 6 years, and have never had a problem with a single one. I probably have over 20 of them, and use them for everything from rice to tea to sugar & more!

Another food storage item I love having on hand is this affordable Set Of 6 Plastic Storage Baskets. They are perfect for corralling baked goods and snacks. I always have a few extra of these to use when I’m re-organizing a space.

I am in love with these Marie Kondo White Ceramic Spice Jars and coordinating Spice Bottle Labels! I have linked more of her line below. I’ll take one of each, please!

This set of Snapware Food Storage is another favorite of mine. They store away really easily, and I have never had an issue with them!

space-saving ideas:

Because I have a small kitchen, I have to be mindful of the items I buy to use for cooking and baking. I love this Crate & Barrel 5 Piece Nesting Bowl Set! I use all of the bowls for cooking and baking, yet they are pretty enough for serving! The perfect combo. I also have this Glass Set Of Mixing Bowls– 10 pieces in every size you could ever need. Easily stores away when not in use! Lastly, I love this White Baking Dish Set. Comes with 3 sizes of casserole dishes, and they stack away together for easy storage.

functional decor:

I love to have extra baskets and bins on hand when I’m organizing. The other day when I was organizing a drawer in my kitchen, I used this Woven Rectangular Tray to store my cloth napkins that were previously taking up an entire kitchen drawer. I now have them stored in a cabinet, but this basket would look just as pretty out on display. I’m also loving this new Studio McGee For Target Rattan Basket.

Instead of storing fruit behind closed doors, display it in a pretty bowl out on your countertop. I have had this White Centerpiece Bowl for years, and it is perfect for looking pretty and holding a lot of fruits & veggies!

countertop storage:

I recently purchased a few of these Target Glass Canisters to store items out on my countertop. I’m not sure what took me so long to think of doing this! I now store my flour and oatmeal out on my countertop- they look nice and freed up so much storage space in my pull-out pantry drawers!

More of a splurge option are these Glazed Lidded Canisters. These would be amazing displayed individually or as a set out on your countertop!

I love a pretty bread box displayed on open shelving, in a pantry or countertop. Both of these options hold your bread products and look pretty doing so! Love this McGee & Co Brass Detail Metal Bread Box, while this Extra Large Metal Bread Box holds two loaves of bread.
