I don't have that problem yet but I hope to one day. I do love things that stack as the are great space savers.

Hello,

I use alot of Tupperware that stacks neatly.

I use wire dividers as well and look for products that stack within themselves.

I go thorugh my stuff periodically and if I haven't used it in a while I toss it.

First time visitor to your blog – saw your Oatmeal Jam bars on a knitting blog and had to get the recipe. Then I saw the Rocky Road, then the Blogoversary……….you got the idea? Everything looks yummy! And, I hate to cook, bake, clean up.
Anyway, here I am with a comment about keeping things in order in the kitchen. It doesn't get as messed up when it isn't used much. Live in an older house, so just have large cabinets to stack things, try to keep smaller sizes inside larger, but hubby doesn't understand the method. The flatware is always neat?? Well, need to purchase new forks – they've all disappeared but 2 since #2 daughter re-left home. Either that or they get thrown away with the paper plates There's an orderly idea!
The pantry holds dry on one shelf, canned on another,etc.
Most of my cookware is older – being married 40 yrs, so I'd love the Rachel Ray Stoneware, if I'm chosen.
Keep up the good work,your recipes will be put to good use. Esp the boxed cake ones!!!

I oraganize my pots & appliances in groups of "used always/often", "sometimes used" and "rarely used". I keep the used "always/often" easily accessible and I keep the "rarely used" downstairs on a shelf.

i use my oven for storage space! My kitchen is so small i don't have too many other options. Sucks when I have to use the oven though… then it goes on the floor until i'm done!

What a great giveaway!! This set is so pretty.

As far as organization goes…we converted a hall closet off the kitchen with double doors to a pantry a few years ago. I got a few organizing trays in there that keeps all of the canned goods in view, so I can see what I need and what I have. And I must admit, I can be a little anal about keeping a list and restocking my stash. Gotta be prepared!

I organize by color,shape, alphabet, types. You name it. It is a sickness. People hate to help me or put something away cause they know I will go coocoo if its not done the right way lol

My place where I keep all my pans is bulging and when it bothers me I try to reorganize but it doesn't help when I am buying something new each week lol

I organize everything by "what I use it for". Baking, stovetop, etc. I even find that I use different pans during different seasons. I have a big closet I converted into a "dish" closet, so I can rotate the items I use from kitchen to "dish" closet.

Currently we own a 700 square foot home and have lived in apartments bigger than this. I donate what I don't need anymore to make room for my new finds!

I like keeping my cupboards organized by size and type! I also like not reorganizing my copboards each time I need to use an item, easy in easy out is my concept.

really, in my opinion, my cupboards are already too full … but i heart rachael ray and after all … is it really possible to have too many dishes? i stay organized because i am just very organized, everything has spot and i always put it back right where it goes. when i have need to get rid of something i usually pass it down to my brother and his girl friend, have a yard sale, or donate it!

I have kids for a reason. When it's time to rearrange my cabinets, I have them take everything out and I supervise putting the stuff back in, lol. "No, not there. Move to there!" I'm such a great mom. LOL

My apartment kitchen is bursting at the seams. I don't have a pantry, so finding room for food + fun kitchen supplies is a challenge. I had to get creative with stacking & moved larger items like the ice cream maker to my only other closet, next to the laundry detergent.
