21 Reader Spaces: Kitchen Extravaganza

Day one of the rockin' Reader Space week begins today!  Let's get right to it shall we?



CC shows us that shoe pockets rule in the pantry!  Who knew?


And that you can label slotted shelves with circular tags!  Genius girl!



Tiffany shares her super impressive recipe binder:




Barb DIY'd an adorable menu planning board!



The DIY Newlyweds shared a lovely spice cabinet before and after!


Along with an incredible freezer one as well!




April gives us a real life example of what a kitchen should look like if your are serious about whipping your cupboards or pantry into organized shape!



Brittany had me drooling over her new pantry, and offered tons of other organizing ideas for around the kitchen!



Jessica gives us a full kitchen cabinet tour, and sports a pretty sweet kitchen back splash to boot!

 

I seriously love spice containers and Kim show us why...





My girl, Jen, has another sweet pantry!  I adore the light bulb storage!




Heather gives us a peek around her organized kitchen, and shares how she saves money by meal planning!




Angie set up an organized oatmeal station!  I am so smitten for all those toppings!



Ashley has a brilliant tip for keeping everything in it's place!



And I couldn't have been more excited to have gotten an email from a friend of mine, who loves to bake as much as I love to organize!  As you can see, she has an organizing gene in her as well!!


Now if I could snag up that baking gene...




Thank you blog buddies for all of the fun ideas and for showing us why you heart your organized kitchen spaces!  Let's get chatty and share your absolute favorite tip for staying organized in the kitchen!

I will start.  Mine is to meal plan.  Taking the few minutes to invest in planning out meals saves us so much money at the grocery store and gives us a "go to" instead of hitting up a "drive thru".

Your turn!  Ready?  Set?  Go!!


2 Are you ready for this?

I am on vacation this week but there will still be 1-2 posts per day packed with inspiration and a giveaway!  All of the inspiration; well I received all of that from you!!

Last week's link party brought in a record 120 link ups!  You proved that you heart organizing!  Since I am M.I.A. you are running the blog this week.  Thank you all so much!

Each day I will focus on a different room of the home and share your fabulous ideas and projects!

Here is the schedule so you can be excited along with me!




Have a lovely week my friends!
