How to declutter your kitchen ✨

Описание: WELCOME to my Whole Home Declutter Series! ❤️

I'll be taking you on a journey of all my best decluttering tips!

Today we are talking about HOW to declutter your KITCHEN.

Especially if you're a beginner at decluttering.

In my opinion - before you start Marie Kondo-ing your kitchen and have a mountain of mess everywhere and then can't even make yourself dinner...

Your NUMBER 1 priority in the kitchen on your decluttering journey should be making it FUNCTIONAL.

Don't start by emptying all your cabinets and drawers.

Start by clearing and decluttering your SURFACES.

So this means anything on the counters or island that doesn't belong in the kitchen goes, anything that is garbage goes, anything you're ready to declutter goes.

THEN - we move on to the FOOD situation.

THIS is where you can empty things out, clean, declutter and organize the food.

We are doing these steps FIRST for a reason.

If your kitchen is currently a cluttered MESS - most likely you aren't using it for its main function - which is cooking and eating.

You might even be ordering a lot of take-out or uber eats because you find your kitchen overwhelming.

If you CAN'T use your kitchen for basic functions yet - then it makes no sense to tackle all the HIDDEN clutter in your kitchen that is behind cupboard doors and drawers.

Get these two CRITICAL steps out of the way so you can USE your kitchen and discover what you actually DO & DON'T need.

Remember - The most important takeaway is this -

Make your kitchen FUNCTIONAL first.
