In a bid to tackle kitchen chaos, Martha uses a wire shelving unit to reorganize her cookware
Is there any better time to get your home in order than January? Whether it's sifting through your full-to-the-brim closet or finally getting around to sorting out the chaos that is your cutlery drawer, the start of the year is the perfect time to get your home in order.
While home organizing isn't always the most appealing, it's an inevitable task we all face. Finding the motivation to start isn't easy, but after seeing Martha Stewart's cookware shelving that she's just reordered, I've been inspired to (finally) tackle my chaotic kitchen storage.
Taking to Instagram to share the result of her decluttering session, Martha said, 'I am using these long days of winter to clean, reorganize, and reset my home. Are you? Over the years, basement storage spaces can get very disorganized – items are mixed up, shelves are confused, more pieces are added without thought as to where they should be placed, etc.'
