Fridge Setup for Success
When thinking about kitchen organization, your refrigerator can easily be forgotten. We find our clients are super excited about their pantry or maybe their spice drawer/cabinet, but the fridge? Not usually top of mind and we can’t have that, people! This space (much like the pantry) is crucial to your day-to-day lives and should not slow you down or make you sad. Let me help you take that space from “what is even in here?!” to “WHAT A DREAM!”
Here are my tips to get the most out of your fridge space!
1. START OVER—EMPTY IT ALL
If you are a regular to our content, you know this step is NEVER skipped on an organization project. We want to empty any space to really evaluate it and figure out what setup will make the most sense. Plus emptying it also provides the opportunity to clean it, and if your fridge is anything like mine, it could use a good wipe down every once in a while.
5. PURPOSEFUL PRODUCT PURCHASING
Simply putting your items in a certain area of your fridge does not create a “home” for them. It will be very easy to ignore this fast and loose placement and then set things wherever you feel like it, especially if you buy too much and are trying to get things to fit. This is why we want to incorporate organization products to designate homes for your items that will hold you accountable, make finding items a breeze, and keep it easy to know when to restock your items.
