Todays tackle is something that I find myself doing on a pretty regular basis…… Decluttering the top of my fridge. The top of the fridge is a hot spot in our house, it’s where we put things up out of the way of the kids and where things that don’t have homes seem to live. The last time I decluttered up there I put a basket on top to try and contain all the mess, but I’ve found that we have gathered more stuff up there and it’s all just spilling out over the edges. So I think the basket needs to go, which means I need to find a new home for a few things.

Ok so here is the before photo:

And here is the after photo:

And if you are wondering what I did with all the stuff, I put most things away in their proper homes and then I emptied out a file / drawer thingy (the picture is below) and put all the stationary things that we use on a daily basis in it and made some space for the drawers in the top of my pantry, so it’s all still up and away from the little kids.
