Drawers
- Group like items together. Dedicate drawers to specific categories like flours, sugars, and baking tools.
- Utilize open-handled baskets as a grab-and-go solution within deeper drawers to categorize smaller items like measuring cups and cupcake liners.
- If the drawers are shallow, drawer organizers come to the rescue, providing compartments for each baking essential.
Food Containers & Labels
- Extend the life of your baking supplies with clear, airtight containers. Label them using chalkboard labels for easy identification and updates.
- Place labels on both front and back of containers. The front displays the contents, while the back can hold baking tips or instructions from original packaging.
- If you have open shelving and your baking supplies will be on display, use more decorative labels for your airtight jars.
- Use reusable food storage bags to store excess flour or other ingredients behind airtight containers.
Baking Sheets & Pans
- If space allows, consider a pull-out baking tray holder or a tray organizer in a deeper cabinet.
- Stand baking sheets upright in organizers. Group sheets, muffin tins, and cutting boards separately for effortless retrieval.
Cookie Jars
- Showcase your sweet creations in style with Anchor Hocking Glass Canisters. These beauties come in multiple sizes, perfect for cookies and beyond.
- When not housing sugary delights, these canisters can hold cupcake liners, gift wrapping bows, or anything your heart desires.
