First of all is our new dish drying rack. It may seem silly but it has helped the kitchen stay a lot neater, we used to use a dish towel to dry things on and this just looks a lot cleaner.
I also recently purchased something I've always wanted and that is a tea box. We have a lot of teas (way more than will fit in here) and this helps us keep our favorites close at hand while still looking stylish and uncluttered.
My last recent improvement is adding hooks on either side of the sink to hang dish towels and pot holders. Again, this is a small thing but makes a big difference. Having things close at hand and easy to reach can really make your cooking experience.
The next thing I have to tackle is organizing our ridiculous spice collection which is now spread out in three different places.
Spices are currently stored here, |

and here. |
I really like the way you cataloged this issue... I too have a spice storage problem. I did not realize this is my kitchen's main issue too, until i saw this. Please let me know what you do- I will be brainstorming too.
