Get Rid Of The Stuff You Don't Use!

This is an excellent example of an organized kitchen

The first rule to any organization project is to get rid of the stuff you don't use. For example, when is the last time you used that waffle maker or that quesadilla maker? Keeping these items solely because we spent money on them, or because they may be used one day, is not a good enough reason to keep them. Donate these items (if they are in working condition) to someone who can or will use them. All they are doing is taking up unnecessary space and preventing you from getting organized.
