There are endless things to organize in a kitchen, right? Well, recently I decided to tackle an area of my kitchen that was plaguing me– my baking sheet cabinet.
Now that you saw the spoiler, let’s see what I was working with before I got my organization on.
Does this look familiar? Kind of sad, huh? When I needed a certain sized baking sheet I’d have to wrestle with the other sheets and my silicone baking mats. It may not sound bad but it frustrated me. Something had to be done.
So I started to think of ways I could clean up this space. And then I had my baking sheet aha moment. An office paper sorter. Thankfully, the one I grabbed fit perfectly.
Tadah! Doesn’t it look 10 times better? I’m able to easily see and grab the baking sheet or baking rack I need. I rolled up my baking mats and secured them with rubber bands. I was going to add contact paper before organizing but our kitchen cabinets are currently undergoing a makeover (woot!) so I’ll wait until the makeover is over.
What do you think about this organization system? How do you organize your baking sheets?
Stalk away!
