Small spaces can still have a big impact! Case in point, creating a functional, organized refrigerator saves you time and money. Let’s dig in!
The Challenge + Solution
A busy family needs to be able to inventory what’s in their fridge and easily find ingredients to get dinner on the table after the rush of the day. Who hasn’t been there – post-daycare pick-up or school, hungry kiddos and no idea what we’re cooking?!
In tackling this fridge, we talked about creating zone: thawing drawer for making sure ingredients are ready to go for the week, leftover zone, fruits, veggies and dairy. We also needed a space to have easy access to kid snacks and milk.
In the end, we created those organized zones and it helped this family keep on top of inventory – saving money because you’re not buying what you already have and made it easy to find and prioritize leftovers or find the ingredients they needed to make meals.
Shop the Fridge
Below are a few of the items and tools used in this space, as well as a few of my own personal favorites. I share these as inspiration while recognizing you can also repurpose your own exsisting Tupperware to help too!
These organizing bins are easy to pull out and manage snacks or a category of food. The clear bin allows for us to easily inventory what food we have on hand.
A lazy Susan is always a great option for accessing bottles, jars and items that easily get stuck in the back of the fridge.
Keeping produce organized within a drawer is helpful vs letting everything roll around. Baby bins can help organize a drawer further.
