Kitchen corner cabinet organization ideas: 3 easy tips
Corner cabinets are so handy….said no one ever!! Here are 3 kitchen corner cabinet organization ideas to get that Lazy Susan working harder for you.
Storage is always tricky in those awkward corner cabinets; especially when you have a lazy Susan who’s not really helping.
1. Organize the corner cabinet with wedge shaped bins:
Ensuring the space is functional and accessible is key. Begin by organizing with wedge shaped bins. They come in a few different sizes and allow you to make better use of circular spaces. Depending on the size of your cupboard, you can likely fit between 4-8 wedges.
These bins work well for shorter items on the upper shelf of the lazy Susan, allowing for higher containers on the bottom shelf. Less bending down to reach the short stuff makes for a happier back 🙂 You can find wedge cabinet organizer bins online or in stores like HomeSense/Winners.
2. Group kitchen cupboard supplies by category
Next, consider what goes where. The advantage of keeping things grouped by category is that when you pull out a bin, you will have everything you need for the task at hand. No more pulling out one item at a time. Anything that saves me time in the kitchen is a bonus 🙂
Furthermore, given the triangular shape, you can store both short and long items and even stack things to the height of the bin. For example, use one bin for baking items like spatulas, cutters and baking papers and one for assorted teas.
3. Keep things clear (and budget friendly)
Lastly, make sure you can see exactly what you on hand. For instance, use clear spice jars to corral loose baggies of bulk sprinkles and clear glass votive holders to gather the smallest supplies too. Both the spice jars and votive holders were from my local dollar store.
Affordable clear storage is also what I used with my recent Organization under the kitchen sink project.
Bonus tip:
In addition to baking supplies, clear glass jars with labels are handy to store nuts and seeds. Keeping everything visible will help you see when you are running low. You can even add expiry dates to the bottom with a chalkboard marker to reduce expired products in your cupboard. Win Win!
Because I wanted to keep this project budget friendly, I found my labels and markers at the dollar store. But there are even more pretty kitchen labels online.
Q: Where else can I use these storage solutions?
First, check out your local dollar store for a decent selection of clear bins, jars and chalkboard labels. Get creative with storage solutions in the the kitchen, laundry room and bathroom.
Finally, that kitchen quirky corner cabinet will be organized for easy access to supplies with one quick spin. That lazy Susan will finally be pulling her weight. Time for cookies and tea!
