Mastering Kitchen Organizing
By
Juliana Montgomery
The kitchen is one of those areas that is often the most
difficult to organize. I do not know about you but in my house all sorts
of things end up in the kitchen. And a lot of the time it is not things
that really belong there. Things like school projects, art projects,
mail, toys, paperwork. You name it, it has probably ended up in my
kitchen at one point. Between that and the dishes that can pile up in no
time, it can really end up being a mess.
So how do you master kitchen organizing so that everything and anything does not end up in your kitchen? One simple rule at my house is that anything that does not belong in the kitchen gets removed by the end of the day. So while all sorts of oddities may end up in your kitchen throughout the day, by the end of each day, they are gone. And not only does this go for others in my home, but I also hold myself to this standard. So any mail on the counter gets put (hopefully) where it belongs in my office.
Then there is the problem of all of those dishes that can pile up during the day. My rule on this one is that all dishes get cleaned up after a meal. Everyone brings their plate to the counter and then all dishes get washed or put in the dishwasher. So that one person is not always doing all of the cooking or all of the cleaning, alternating chores in the kitchen is a good way to go. Setup a kitchen organizing schedule that has each chore and then has the person assigned to that chore.

Keeping to a set daily schedule and having set rules for your kitchen can help you master kitchen organizing
and keep your kitchen neat and clean. Having each person responsible
for their own things and alternating common chores help to keep things
equal as well. Need more help? You can find it for free at http://www.yourhomeisorganized.com/KitchenOrganization.htm
