New year…..new you. You’ve seen those advertising campaigns, right? Lets talk about DIY organization shall we? We all know that completely changing ourselves is going to take more than the clock striking twelve and a ball dropping on Times Square. It takes a lot of effort to create new habits. From experience, I know that sometimes the best way to make big changes is to start small. Here are 10 tips to get yourself organized in the kitchen. You also may find a few affiliate links in this post. Many of you always want to know where you can buy certain products so I found a few for you. I may make a few pennies if you buy something ;). Thanks in advance!
If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to get organized, try doing it in baby steps.

None of them require expensive materials or more than a few hours of your time. We can do this!

Great ideas. I was wondering where you can get those baskets you showed holding the paper plates? Thanks

Where can I find the handled baskets that are hanging on the rod? I found the rod system at IKEA, but can’t find the baskets!
Thanks!!!
