How to Organize the Refrigerator

[@Just-Melanie]

I use the clear bins, too & they are wonderful! You gave me some other great ideas, too! Thanks! 😊💪❣

[@ohbabycakesxx]

I love how organized this is, yet it's so simple! There's no hassle of taking things out of their original packaging, or buying extra things. Good work, Abby! Looking forward to seeing more videos from you.

Thank you so much for your kind comment, Jessica! That really means a lot! Hope you're having a great week!

I'm obsessed with the round condiment squeeze bottles. I love 'em so very much. On "At Home with Nikki", "Simply Cherie" and "Always Lorna Marie", I looked over the videos about the organized fridges with their round condiment squeeze bottles. The round bottles are better than the labeled, different-shaped bottles because if anyone uses his/her round bottles, then they can possibly save some space. My 4 "16-oz." OXO bottles separately have mustard, ketchup, honey barbecue sauce and pancake syrup in my kitchen's cabinet. I love to play with my 20 other empty "12-to-16-oz." "Farberware, OXO & Tablecraft" bottles so I can hold, stack and squeeze 'em on my office desk in my bedroom. I always beat the expiration dates. When my 4 OXO bottles are low in my favorite condiments, I separately squeeze 'em into my correct, labeled, different-shaped bottles. I wash my OXO bottles. I separately refill 'em toward the bottlenecks. "Squeeze" is my favorite word. I'm not an online shopper, but I'd wanna get the larger bottles so I could play with 'em. You need to look up "pancake art challenge" on KZbin because the round bottles appeared on the videos. ☺💗☺💗☺💗

Loved this video! That refrigerator is amaizing! I would love a tour around your craft space! I need ideas to organize mine! ❤❤

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Thank you so much, Lucy! The craft room is definitely on the list! :) Have a great 4th!

[@carolelkins6510]

Great video! I love seeing your refrigerator because I just started looking for a new one - the same style as what you have. I have a side by side refrigerator now (which I can't stand because there's not enough storage in the freezer). Love your organizing videos!

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Thank you so much, Carol! In the past few years we've had a side-by-side, then a traditional top freezer model, and now the French door style, and our current fridge is definitely my favorite of the three! Best of luck with your search!

[@jummycokes]

I love this video. I think I just found my next freezer :) Your videos are inspiring me to get organized

[@AbbyOrganizes]

You are the sweetest, Jumi!! Thank you so much for your kind words!!

[@KarlaGarcia-lu7lq]

Hi Abby! Just found your channel & I completely love it💗I love organization videos! Totally subscribed 👍Your fridge organization looks very nice, 💗 it!

[@AbbyOrganizes]

You are so sweet, Karla! Thank you! Hope you're having a wonderful week!

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

I have tons of condiments, they take up way too much space. I hate to throw them away because I use them all, but, being single, I just don't use much of them at one time. Anyway, this will inspire me to clean out what I can. Thanks!

[@AbbyOrganizes]

I hear you! Condiments seem to be easy to collect! Have fun with your project!

[@stacyhoffman_growingbravely]

Hi Abby! I'm so glad that I just found your channel! I LOVE how clean and easy on the eyes your organizing systems are! Can't wait to watch more of your videos!

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Thank you so much for your sweet words, Stacy! You totally made my day!

[@nivethamuthukumaran5872]

Nice organization

[@michelleb6395]

Love this! Thanks for sharing!

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Thank you so much, Michelle! Happy 4th!

[@paty5301]

Love the idea about repurposed jars! I have couple laying around. I'm going to copy cat...😂😃😊!

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Thanks, Patricia! Who knew that pickle jars could be so handy? Lol!

[@Whatworksthisworks]

OMG! You live close to me on the other side of Pittsburgh! I organize too! LOVE your fridge!! Looks AMAZING!

[@AbbyOrganizes]

I love meeting other 'Burgh-ers! :) Thanks so much for your sweet words!

[@bluemoon188]

Hi! I've just found out your channel.Your videos are very helpful and your organisation ideas are perfect.Very simple and very chic.Thank you.I suppose you are eating kind of one ingredient food meals ?Do you have a one ingredient meal recipe video or could you do that??

[@AbbyOrganizes]

We keep it pretty simple for meals for sure! We have a lot of allergies/food restrictions in our family, so I usually do a meat, a veggie, and a starch all separate so everyone can eat the parts that they are able!

[@kiterafrey]

Any tips for organizing a mini fridge. My dorm has a full kitchen so we cook, but only a mini fridge. It's always overflowing.

[@theorganizedcountrygirl4002]

I live far from a grocery store, thus making it important to buy in bulk. So my fridge gets full!!! I have found that lining up product, and leaving a space between the rows allows me to see what I have.

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Love that tip!!

[@rileyanne8843]

Great video Abby ! I was wondering if you could possibly film a house tour ?

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Thanks, Riley! A house tour is definitely on the list to film soon! Happy 4th!

[@laurenmanning3672]

It looks beautiful, but Abby, I have to ask: Do you really have such few items in your fridge? I guess it depends on how often you cook from scratch, etc, but it seems like there isn't much to eat in there =) You really do have a talent for organizing, that's clear from your videos and your blog. Congrats on your new venture!

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Hi, Lauren! That's really it, lol! We typically eat the same things for breakfasts and lunches each day, and we have several food allergies/sensitivities in our family, so dinners are very simple-- we don't use a lot of ingredients. As I mentioned in the video, refrigerators are difficult when it comes to organizing advice because everyone's needs and habits are so different! I hope you have a great week!

[@deliaalston7898]

I was just going to ask the same thing. I cook everything from scratch, therefore I have the whole bottom drawer where her meats and cheeses are is full of produce, plus another bin up higher for salad items such as lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. Including another refrigerator that I use when I do bulk buying. I use one shelf just for containers of left overs that we know to grab for a quick lunch. I am going to head to target to see if I can find some of those nice bins for organizing. Oh, that my refrigerator could look as nice.

[@elizadon1697]

Beautiful organisation, I think even Alejandra Costello has to be jelous :) Just a little side comment that I can't help though: that La Croix drink (LECROY - as everyone pronounces it) is actually pronounced LAH CRWAH and literally means "the cross" in French. There. It's off my chest :) Love your videos.

[@lindseykraemer8221]

I usually run out of room in our fridge when we have tons of containers of leftovers....any suggestions on organizing them?

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Hi, Lindsey! I use glass Pyrex containers to store our leftovers, and I can stack them (that's what's in the two containers in the top left section of the fridge in the video), so that helps save some space. Other than that, I just try to be intentional about eating our leftovers within the first few days and clearing out anything that has been in there too long!

[@AOmega84]

How do you remove the label from pickle jar?

[@AbbyOrganizes]

I soak it in water for a few minutes and it usually peels right off! If there is some sticky residue that I'm having trouble getting off, I'll use a little bit of goo gone on it. :) I put it through the dishwasher before I use it as well.

[@saltspress7984]

Lovely but the additional packaging seems excessive for the fruit, it has a natural packaging that wouldn't require so much plastic.

[@signedelacroix7213]

La croix is is French, it's pronounced: Lah kr-wa. Thanks for the video.

[@jacgilmour6962]

There is like 4 things in this fridge.... for the rest of us we have stuff

[@zinabladi]

HI, WHERE IS YOUR GARBAGE BIN?

[@AbbyOrganizes]

Hi! We keep it at the end of our cabinets, right near the dishwasher. :)
