Kris Jenner impressed professional organizers with this replicable fridge storage technique
The socialite's fridge excited experts so much that they've made a step-by-step guide so we can follow her technique
Kris Jenner is all about getting it done. In the classic Kardashian style, she is perpetually on brand, meaning that even her refrigerator storage is perfect. Poosh shared images of Kris's immaculate fruit and vegetable storage, and we're still not over it.
The socialite has given us all the inspiration we could need for organizing the refrigerator with a technique that's simultaneously beautiful and highly functional.
'Kris's fridge is a legitimate work of art,' says organization expert and owner of Full Service Living, Julianna Melamed.' She continues: 'The colors, use of space, and product implementation are extraordinary. Not only is it visually stunning, but it is also masterfully laid out for optimal daily use.'

Jennifer Ebert, the digital editor at Homes & Gardens, adds: 'Organizing a kitchen can feel like an overwhelming task, but starting with something smaller, like the refrigerator, is a way to get your space together in bite-sized pieces. Kris's design goes one step further for a stylish, color-coordinated design.'

Poosh reports that Kris keeps two fridges: one with fresh fruit, vegetables, and herbs on display. The second fridge is organized with beverages, condiments, and other items. No matter the size of your kitchen storage space and whether you have two fridges or not, according to Julianna, you can follow Kris's lead with these three simple steps.
1.Buy high-quality glass food storage containers
First, Juliana says that high-quality storage containers, like glass ones, is essential to keeping your fridge, and the food in it, organized. She tells H&G: 'Your food will be better preserved (and last longer), you can use glass to reheat, and you can easily access everything in your fridge without having to take off the container to see what's inside.'
2.Organize items according to category.
Next, she recommends sorting your food based on type of food. 'For example, keep cheese all in one drawer/container, prepared food on the same shelf, drinks in the same section, etc,' Juliana explains. We see this in Kris Jenner's fridge, where broccoli is with broccoli, grapes are with grapes, and cabbage is with cabbage.

It's a simple technique that can help create more space in your fridge easily.
3. Measure your fridge before investing in organization products.
Finally, Juliana recommends avoiding a common refrigerator organizing mistake and planning. She states: 'While lazy susans and turntables are an awesome way to organize bottles and packets, they also tend to take up a lot of space. Make sure the products you're buying create more space, instead of less.'
Shop Kris's Organizational Tools
This bin is an easy way to add a bit of organization to your fridge. The clear plastic material makes it easy to see what's in your space.
Whether you are Kris Jenner or not, having an organized fridge is always a worthwhile pursuit. With some well placed organizational containers, any refrigerator can become a work of art.
