It’s the first Monday of 2015! The kids are back in school, I’ve currently got excavators in our yard digging our new pool, and I’m back in full blogging/work mode! If you remember, back on Friday I shared that my phrase this year is “take control.” It’s a blanket phrase that really can be applied to all areas of my life. One area that needs a lot of help is organizing my home. This year, I plan to take control of all areas that need organizing and I’m planning to share that journey with you all. Doing this has inspired me to start a mini-series for organization. For the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing tips and ideas for organizing various rooms throughout the home. I felt like it would be a lot easier than sharing 10,000 ideas in one post.
For the first installment of this series, I thought I would start with what is the most used room in my home. The kitchen. I’ve compiled a list of 15 ideas to organize both the kitchen and pantry. I know I’m feeling inspired, so I hope you will too!

Pantry Organization
My pantry seems to go from organized to chaos after a single grocery trip. I’m loving the ideas of pretty labels, baskets, and bins for keeping the pantry neat and organized. My pantry is a deep set of cabinets, which means that slide out drawers would also be so handy to access food and not lose anything.
