Clutter in the kitchen has to be a nemesis for lots of us out there, not just my family. Space in the kitchen is always prime real estate and this article gives great dvice on how to shrink your clutter. Organizing and utilizing racks and shelves is an important first step in a plan of attack for organization. Placing items in the shelves around the kitchen according to usage is a good idea. The most frequently used items should be right at the top of the list. The cabinet next to the stove should have your favorite utensils and pans there. I also agree with the idea of hiding appliances in cabinets. If you don't use it everyday, then you can pull it out of a nearby cabinet when it is needed. Clustering is also something I find myself doing, when baking I need most of the same items every time. Rid yourself of the unwanted and obselete items in your kitchen.

I like this article because we could all use a little orginizing help and this delivers good tips.
