    Your Kitchen

    As far as your kitchen goes, you will find that there is more than enough clutter in here to keep you occupied for months on end. To help cut through all that red tape, I have one suggestion: bin bag.

    That¡Çs right, most of the clutter in your kitchen can be taken away through the simple expedient of using a bin bag. Grab one and keep the roll handy, you might need it sooner than you think.

    Your Fridge

    The first thing you need to do is to go through your fridge. Throw out anything that looks like it might sprout legs and walk.

    Anything with fuzz growing on it, and basically anything that smells, has changed consistency, or has changed color, throw them all out!

    The cupboards

    After you finish the fridge, go through the cupboards next. These should be done methodically to make your task easier, so start from one corner of the room and work your way to the other corner.

    Throw out anything that is broken, that is growing without your express permission or knowledge, and set aside those things which you haven¡Çt used for a while.

    This includes spices. They also tend to go off after a time, especially if they had migrated to the land that time forgot soon after you bought them.
    Utensils

    If you have spoons and utensils by dozen or by the hundreds, don¡Çt try sorting through them. My mother gave me this tip, and I have to say that it came in quite handy.

    Place all your spoons and utensils into one box and keep it on a counter within easy reach. Keep them there for one month, and every time you reach in there and take something out, keep it outside, don¡Çt put it back.

    By the time a month is out you should have the utensils that you use most sorted out. Then if you want you can either the give the remainder away, or sort through them first before parting with them.

    I only say this because there are some utensils which you only use occasionally and if you were to be without them, it would not be good. You would most likely need to go out and get a new one!

    So sort through these items and give away the ones that you don¡Çt use. The ones that you use only occasionally, store in a separate drawer to the ones which you use more regularly.

    The overall kitchen

    Now that you¡Çve gone through the specific areas, you will find that there are still some small things which you can do to make your kitchen a De-Cluttered Zone.

    · Store your kitchen cleaning items away in one caddy under the sink. This way you can get to them when you need, and they¡Çre not falling all over themselves.

    · Keep your garbage bin in an easy to get to, but unobtrusive place. Don¡Çt make it a centerpiece of the kitchen.

    · Have a separate place for the plates and dishes which are most often used. The same applies to glasses and mugs. For everything else use a separate cupboard space.

    · Keep your spices where you can easily get to them, use something like a spice rack for this.

    · Keep the counters as free as possible. The more space you have on the countertops the larger the kitchen looks, and the more space you have to work.

    · Keep dishcloths and tea towels in one place. Either use hooks for this purpose, or use one of those small tea towel holders with about three separate arm attachments on them.

    · If you have a dishwasher, then use it. This saves you the time and hassle of having to wash the dishes, and it will also get the table cleaned off faster than it would otherwise be.
