Organizing Your Kitchen One Label At a Time

Have you ever been in your kitchen trying to cook dinner and realized that you can’t find any of the tools or spices that you need? If you are anything like me, you could spend a solid twenty minutes digging through the cabinet full of spices on the hunt for oregano. If you would like to be able to find what you are looking for in a hurry, then it may be time to organize and label everything in your kitchen.

Save Pantry Space

If you put your dried goods in uniform tupperware or jars, it makes it much easier to stack and find exactly what you are looking for in your pantry. Try putting your flours, sugars, coffee, oats, rice, pasta, and other dried goods into mason jars. Once they are all in the mason jars they all begin to look very similar, so it is then time to begin organizing by theme and labeling the jars. Print colorful adhesive labels with one of the Monarch label and pricing guns from Image Supply. Keep it classy with simple white labels or spice things up with a fun fluorescent label color like green, red, blue, pink, yellow, or orange.  

Organize Your Cupboards

If you have a lot of kitchen gizmos and gadgets, they can easily become spread out in a cupboard and take up more space than is actually necessary. They are all odd shapes and difficult to stack or store. For this issue we recommend purchasing a few organizational bins that will easily slide into your cupboards. Put all of your ins and outs in this bin and then print it a label with something on it like “miscellaneous kitchen gadgets,” and then list everything that  belongs in the bin on the tag so that you as well as everyone else in your household know exactly what does and doesn’t belong in each bin. You can also label the inside of your cabinets where things need to be stocked, so label where the plates, bowls, cups, and mugs go. This will help you and your family keep things within their boundaries.

Label The Tops Of Your Spices

If you don’t use a spice rack, or if you do and the lids aren’t labeled, it can be very helpful to label the lids of your spices for efficiency when searching for specific spice. By labeling the lids, it is much easier to find what you are looking for at a glance. You can even color coordinate your spices based on the types of dishes that they are used for. For instance, use green adhesive labels for all of your Italian spices, red adhesive labels for all of your Mexican spices, and orange adhesive labels for all of your BBQ spices.
