At the beginning of the year, one of my favorite things to do is to get organized. I always feel that the New Year is a time for a refresh. It allows us a chance to purge the old and opt for a new start. Getting organized in our homes can offer clarity.
Organizing your kitchen and refrigerator, in particular, can also help save you money, make it easier to see what you have, plan for what you need to grocery shop for, and can help reduce waste.
To get your refrigerator organized, I recommend removing everything first.
Check expiration dates and toss expired items. Some items can get lost in the back, and the last thing you want is outdated food or expired items.
Then, wipe down all shelves and drawers. Also, now is the time to rearrange any of your shelves.
One of the best things you can do as you put things back is to keep food items placed where you can see them.
Below I listed some suggested items to get organized. They can all be found on Amazon for easy shopping.
Food Storage Containers Set with Lids // Water Bottle Holder // Clear Plastic Organizer Bins // Snack Organizer Racks // Soda Can Organizer // Egg Holder // Storage Organizer For Tea, Spices, Sauces // Coffee Pod Holder // Wine Bottle Holder
Do you enjoy cleaning and getting organized, or do you dread it?
I definitely have to be in the mood and choose a day I have some extra energy 🙂
