7 Steps to Have a Tidy Kitchen

The kitchen often is the most loved and the most unmanageable place in the house. Here accumulate things all family members – textbooks and notebooks to children, the working documents of husband, toys – and somewhere in this mess you have to cook Lunches and dinners. To make your life easier, take 7 steps toward the rational organization of their workspace in the kitchen.

1. The first step to organizing any work environment is cleaning. Inspect all kitchen cabinets and drawers. Think about what you really need, and what only takes place. Discard what is not needed, and also what the kitchen is not the place – paper, toys, or the work aprons for women which have been worn out already, etc.

2. Next, inspect the contents of the fridge, freezer and pantry. Expired products should not be in the kitchen. Say goodbye that will not be there. Make it a rule to sign the shelf life of foods in the freezer and pieces in the pantry. And then in a timely manner, use or dispose of already expired products.

3. Divide the kitchen into functional areas. For example, a coffee maker, 220V coffee grinder, coffee maker and coffee mugs keep in the same box. Similarly act and with other objects. I.e. divide all the kitchen utensils in different subjects.

4. When the hostess attempted to organize kitchen space, they just want to acquire as many containers and drawers for storage. It's convenient, but it is not necessary to purchase them in advance in large quantities. First sort cookware, decide on the required number of containers and then purchase. So you will get exactly what you need.

5. Use Kraft paper gift tags or labels. This will help all family members know what and where. And this, in turn, will push them to restore order in the kitchen.

6. Create a system of cleaning dishes. Hang it on the refrigerator schedule restore order in the kitchen, write down all the necessary things, a list of weekly purchases.

7. The hardest part is not to establish order – it’s much more difficult to regularly maintain. Make it a rule: every day 15 minutes to give the cleaning in the kitchen.
