Get rid of kitchen clutter for good – 8 brilliant ideas using what you already have

4. Coffee creamer storage containers (h/t Frugelegance)
So many small items come in plastic bags. Just one overzealous rip and your bag is not effective at containing the food anymore. Coffee creamer containers are perfect for organizing small foods, such as cereals for snacking, chocolate chips, and nuts.

5. Create a pouring jar

Glass jars make excellent food storage solutions. Here’s a creative solution for storing dry goods in mason jars. You simply use the pour spout off a salt container to create an easy pour spout. It works great for sugar, herbs, drink mixes, and other dry items.
6. Creatively clean hands (h/t Bay Witch Musings)
Use those old glass soda bottles to create whimsical hand soap, dish soap, and baking soda dispensers. The pour spouts and corks can be found online or at your local craft store.

7. Spin your condiments (h/t A Casarella)
Digging to the back of a fridge shelf is inconvenient and wastes time. If you have a lazy susan hanging around, try placing it in your refrigerator. Instead of digging through everything to reach the one item you need, simply give it a spin and get back to cooking.

8. Save can space (h/t Then She Made)
Soup organizers are expensive items, but you can create your own by covering a soda box with pretty paper. The box is already designed to dispense cans out the slot in the front. Try enlarging the hole for easy access.

By reusing items from your home to organize your kitchen, you create less waste, save time, and stay within budget. Share these helpful hints with your friends and family on Facebook!
