Organise Our Kitchen With Me

[@lynnmichelle5482]

I totally agree Emma, having a tidy, organised space means a relaxed and stress free mind as you're not constantly searching for things you need through clutter. Plus it's aesthetically pleasing to the eye, and to some of us it's really important that things 'look right' and placed together in categories.

[@asalindstrom6845]

Very satisfying results I must say 👌🏻 Another thing that gives me a calming feeling is to put strips of felt under all storage boxes so they slide easily and won’t scratch the shelves. I mean the type of felt you normally use under chairs but to buy them in big rectangles and cut into the needed sizes to stick under your boxes. The almost non existing sound when pulling out the boxes “gives me life” as they say😂

[@EmmaHill]

Oh yes I know what you mean, we have some of those stickers in the tool box so I’ll give that a go, excelling tip! 🙌🏼

[@sandysmith8377]

Emma, I have ALWAYS appreciated your SERIOUS commitment to snacks 😂😂. From sub-categorizing dark and milk chocolate to the emergency Snickers bar. We are kindred spirits for sure. The kitchen is beautiful 😍🇨🇦.

[@EmmaHill]

We don’t have any milk chocolate bars as I need to be as dairy free as possible 💩😆 but I do love my snacks 🙌🏼

[@Stanzishouse]

It's even relaxing and stress-releasing to watch someone else organise their kitchen - thanks for this! 😊

[@EmmaHill]

I agree, I love watching others organise too which is why I love shows/accounts like The Home Edit 🙌🏼

[@marieontana1392]

Ok, well that was quite satisfying to watch before I sleep. 😊 I always say to friends or family that are struggling with anxiety or the like, (or when we were locked up in iso) that the best thing to do is tidy up or re arrange inside your pantry, cupboards, wardrobe etc. Creating order in a space helps settle an over active mind, is extremely therapeutic and aesthetically pleasing. Thank you for another terrific video Emma. ❤️🙌😍

[@kirstyvinter712]

Emma, this was simply like meditation to me! I’m exactly the same and feel much calmer when things are away and organised! Great job, it’s all looking bloody lovely 🥰

[@thandisilec835]

So clean& organised. My Mum loves organising a tad obsessively but reason she labels, as I understand, is that she adds expiry date labels as some grains like flour don’t immediately show when they’ve expired but can flop your baking if used past expiry date

[@Dana-ml7sy]

Emma, sorry I cringed when I saw your organisation. Yes it looks aesthetically pleasing but …….your stuff appears to be in all the wrong places! Is your everyday crockery by your dishwasher? Are your kitchen utensils by your cooker? Food stuffs should be grouped together in a cooler area if possible. Putting stuff in boxes that are not transparent means it’s out of sight out of mind, not now but later on. Not putting a label on is daft. At least put it underneath with the date. Does your kitchen have a workable triangle, sink, fridge & cooker? If not you will be run ragged but you are happy with it, fine. I only mention this as you will waste a lot of money, time & energy putting aesthetics before functionality. We all do short cuts when busy & suddenly the cupboard once organised become something else over time & you have to re do it. If it’s not right you will be redoing it until it’s changed altogether. I have found putting like with like works. When you are at the cooker & want something is it within reach? I keep a small basket of herbs & spices by the cooker in an overhead cabinet but the rest is in a drawer for example. Utensils are close by too. So are the pots & pans & baking sheets & roasting pans. When dishing up food is the crockery close to the cooker & is the dishwasher close to where you put away your crockery? Rather than go out shopping to pick out pretty containers people should look at the available space they have & if what they want actually suits their needs. For example, glass jars are great but if the cupboard they are in is accessible to young children then they are wrong for you & food grade plastic/acrylic containers are a better choice. Glass is also heavy & will shatter if dropped. Some containers stack on top of each other, a boon if short of space. Follow the design principle of form follows function, which means it has to function, to do the job intended & not just look pretty. Tip, the (lined) boxes would be better for the potatoes that like the dark or they will go green. Putting onions beside potatoes is not a good idea either. They should be kept apart. They react badly with each other & both will go bad quickly.

[@cristinagrancea3415]

How do you know when the contents of the jars expire if you have no labels??

[@Mike90543]

Emma, the kitchen is looking awesome!!! ❤️

[@mineralpast]

Such a relaxing (and inspiring!) way to start my Sunday morning! Thank you Emma :)

[@rachaeljones5767]

Been de cluttering my entire house bit by bit and gave loads to charity that is close to my heart x . Love your tips for when I get round to sorting my kitchen cupboards . I was worried when you took down a lot of the wall units but seeing how you have maximised your space in your kitchen it is pleasing on the eye xx

[@EmmaHill]

We have so much space even after removing so many cupboards. We have a lot of dead space in the cupboards but obviously didn’t need to worry about that as we can space things out 🙌🏼

[@dianemitchell1161]

Looks wonderful, Emma, but I wonder how you keep a track of ‘use by’ dates for your decanted foods if you don’t keep labels?

[@EmmaHill]

I popped this as an ‘extra tip’ in the description box but you can write them on the bottom of the container in washable marker or chalk marker 👍🏼

Its so refrshing to watch one of these where there just isnt plastic containers, I can't deal with the "aesthetic" organising that's all plastic and acrylic, just makes you want to cry.

Very satisfying to watch Emma.. During the first lockdown I decided to give a total makeover and organizing every draw and everyshelf..I felt so good that every few minutes I just opened the cupboards only to admire the aesthetic organization 😆 Thank for sharing this video Emma!! 😊

I find too that labels are a waste of time... plus if you need to switch the content of one jar...it sucks

Loved this Emma! We’re hoping to move into our first house in the next few months & this has gotten me so excited to get organising!

[@EmmaHill]

Congratulations! Your first home is always the most special ❤️

[@aliceinwonderland.2080]

Hi Emma. I’m a born organiser and everything has its place in my home. I’m not a minimalist as my house is not very modern and often,sentimentality takes over. This means I do have a lot more than I need which undoubtedly makes my life more difficult! Still, I know exactly where everything is and ,like yourself,I find it helps towards reducing stress levels! 💖🌸

[@EmmaHill]

Yes to this! I have minimal style but I’m certainly not a minimalist, we do have stuff but it all has a purpose and like you say, if everything has a certain place then it makes life less stressful 🙌🏼

[@brittanyt]

Love these tips Emma, thank you for sharing! Where did you find those curved pull out things for under the sink? Don't even know how to describe it 😆 which probably explains why I can't find them

[@sandsgoodenough6364]

Love the glass jars with wooden tops…..fyi…it’s suggested to not store onions anywhere near potatoes because gases from the onions hasten sprouting on the potatoes…l

[@EmmaHill]

Can’t say we’ve had that issue but I’ll look out for it 😊

[@Jessmsheppard]

[@mumslondonlife5907]

Really enjoyed your video. Now I will brace myself as I start planning another revamp for my own kitchen cupboards.

[@kenn1936]

TIP : put an apple or two in with the potatoes and they will stop the potatoes from sprouting!!! I gave up on Tupperware and started to use foodbags, and they fit in the freezer so much better. It is strange you say the knives don't fit in your cutlery tray... I too have that problem and it looks like a similar looking tray. My knives however will fit if they go diagonally across, instead of straight. Weird how any company would make a cutlery tray without making sure all cutlery fitted into the tray!!!🙄

[@yanapetrova5177]

Looks amazing and definitely motivated me to some kitchen organizing :). Could I please ask you where your plates are from? They are very nice

[@mrsshelleyashard]

i kid you not…. after grocery shopping today, i said to my husband i needed to look at reorganising our walk-in-pantry to make best use of space and look at tidying it all up with new storage containers and boxes. BAM! thank you Emma and Simon 😃

[@EmmaHill]

Haha to be fair we were already pretty organised as that’s just who we are as people (the nightmare drawer was an exception 🤣) but it just didn’t look very aesthetically pleasing and some areas needed tweaking to work for us 🙌🏼

[@JoR00ke]

Well it looks amazing. On the upside for me my bra and sock drawers look immaculate 😁 x

[@Mandi_Hui]

Wow so many snacks and cereal and nut choices. I love adding fruits and nuts in my cereal aswell. I love your condiments where you can just swivel it out we definitely use alot since Asian kitchens you have alot for cooking. I am not fan of labels and since there stored in glass you know what it is. I hate removing labels on things as sometimes it leaves a sticky residue and can take a long time to remove and need to be soaked before all gone. I like drawer inserts so items doesn’t move around. Plates and cups i like using shelving units to save space. Definitely during Covid we stocked up on freezers and cans and toiletries items also if you ever had an emergency too. Since dry foods they expired longer and freezer foods aswell.

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

Emma, post-rennovation it helps to dust down the ceilings and walls, tops of doors, trim, cabinets, etc. with a soft, long-handled dust mop. Shake it frequently outdoors. Running one fan, blowing inward, at the open door on the upwind side of the house, and one blowing out at the door on the downwind side, will help remove airborne dust after everything else is cleaned I’ve been through this several times.

Thank you. ❤️❤️

[@Frick_79]

You know you’ve met your people when they immediately know what back stock means!!! 😆 The boxes and mason jars look great, I can’t have a clear mind either if things in the home aren’t organised in a particular way. The ikea display area around the fridge looks amazing. We have a walk in pantry and use lots of mason jars and plastic containers which I’m slowly replacing with wooden ones. I do have to label them though. It’s looking like a space Clea and Joanna would be very proud of!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@susanschreyer7654]

I have to admit that I didn't actually think I'd be able to sit through 18.5 minutes of someone else organizing (it's a task I can easily ignore in my own space until my brain can't handle the disarray any longer), but I am in awe. And inspired. Super job! Functional and pretty at the same time!

@@EmmaHill well, I'm not quite sure I'd go that far! I admire your dedication to that level of organization, but my personal comfort level is a little more ... hmm ...
