Spring Cleaning Starting With Kitchen Organization

The Container Store is a dangerous place.  The past few times I've been there, the place has been packed with people.  That has probably been the only reason why I haven't walked out of there with carts of purchases.

For some reason, the place was pretty empty this past Sunday afternoon and we were able to walk around the entire store without having our personal space invaded.  Our visit all started when I said that I wanted some organization in our kitchen.  Specifically I wanted the storage space under our island as well as some other cabinets to not explode whenever I tried to move/find/remove/add something.

Ryan being the Get 'Er Done kinda person that he is immediately picked up some cabinet sliding drawer thingabobbers.  We even purchased one to specifically hold pot lids...the whole reason I was getting fed up to begin with.  Just purchasing that one lone piece would have been good enough for me, but I'm quite pleased with the others as well.

As for me, I picked up a cabinet organizer for some spices.  I'm still on the lookout for the perfect spice organizer...hoping to come across some nifty magnetic containers.

Other than that...I also purchased some home office stuff.  And some super colorful and fun filing folders  :)  I figured if I was going to be working from home, I might as well try to be clean and organized about it!
