1. Gather

Empty all kitchen cabinets, drawers, and pantry shelves onto a clear surface away from where you'll rehome items. *Nothing needs to be organized yet—just gather everything in one place.* For larger kitchens, consider dividing items into sections to avoid overwhelm. If placing the kitchen items on the floor, you may want to use a blanket or drop cloth. Shop Gather - KITCHEN

2. Categorize & Purge

Sort items into categories such as cookware, utensils, snacks, canned goods—using clear bins if helpful. Label each bin by category, plus one for Give Away. As you pick up each item, decide: keep it, give it away, or toss it into the trash. Simple as that.

3. Plan & Label

Decide the zones where each category of items will go. Label zones for easy navigation. Zones may include key areas such as spice drawers, baking stations, or coffee corners so everything has a home.

4. Add Helping Tools

Integrate easy-reach and easy organize tools such as a lazy Susan for corner cabinets, front-open bins for easy access, and modular drawer dividers for utensils. See our list of products to choose from for inspiration! I highly recommend front-open bins for easy access, and pull out drawers for under the kitchen sink.

5. Maintain Your Reset Routine

Set a reminder to do a quick "reset" and return items to their designated spots. Use a checklist to keep yourself on track. Keep your checklist in the kitchen for whenever you need it.
