“I need help keeping my kitchen clutter free.”


Busy Moms everywhere suffer from kitchenitis. You know what I mean. The counters are always full of stuff and how do I keep my kitchen clutter-free when we use it so much? Unfortunately, your kitchen will get messy when you use it every day. Fortunately, I have a few quick tips that will help your kitchen look less cluttered, even when it’s not.


1.Have as few things as possible living on the flat surfaces of your kitchen. This includes décor and small appliances that are not used on a daily basis.


2.  Establish a daily routine. There are two things you need to do every day before you go to bed:

a.  Wash your dishes and put them away.

b.  Wipe down your counters.


3.  Have a landing spot for the things that always end up in your kitchen: mail, keys, school work, etc. Whether it’s a basket or something else, put everything in it so it doesn’t creep across your countertops. It may not be as attractive as you would like, but it will be contained and you will know where to look when you need something.


The kitchen is the heart of most homes. It is both loved and detested at the same time. Show it your love by taking care of it.
