Fridge organisation and meal planning....lets get to it! Fridge Type: Our fridge is a Samsung French four door, allowing us to fit and organise almost every awkwardly shaped item in there with ease. The bottom doors however, are separated into two units; the door on the left is a freezer and the door on the right has it’s own temperature control setting which gives us the option to use it as a fridge or freezer. This is the main reason I chose to buy this fridge because I love the ... Read the Post
Fridge Organisation
Organising under the kitchen sink
People often struggle with kitchen sink organisation and I don't blame them. The cupboards are usually awkwardly shaped and often underutilised. We have since replaced our kitchen bench and sink as part of a kitchen renovation. Here is what I was working with originally: Luckily, the exact same set up still fits with the new kitchen sink. I even managed to tidy up the plumbing a bit! As you can see by the very uneven holes, I attempted to drill into the cabinetry. Patience and ... Read the Post
Pantry Baking Corner
I absolutely adore the baking corner in my pantry. It was one of the very last additions I made and it has probably been my favourite. Now, I can display all my cute baking stuff which was previously hidden in drawers. I used the Ikea Spice Racks as my book holders and painted them pink. They're $4 each! Then, I added some screws to the shelving so I could hang my measuring cups and utensils right underneath. I am still looking for a spot to add my oven mitts and a few other bits and pieces ...

Storing Oils, Vinegar and spices
Oils & Vinegar I had purchased a few of these bottles to keep different types of oil and vinegar. They're glass which meant I could write the use-by date on the back in a white board marker and not have to worry about keeping the packaging. I purchased the bottles from Myer and Wheel & Barrow (Maxwell & Williams) but unfortunately, they're no longer stocked. Numerous people have asked me about these bottles but unfortunately I am yet to find an alternative. I designed and printed my ... Read the Post
Storing Dry-Goods in your Pantry
I call this part of the pantry the OXO Wall, because it is literally filled with all of my OXO containers,. I purchased mine in sets from Costco a few years ago because I found them too pricy to buy as individual pieces. In my opinion, they are well and truly the crème de la crème of pantry organisation and I prefer their look and feel a thousand times better to Tupperware (sorry, please don't kill me). Labels I used to have really ugly labels that I hand made my self but then the wonderful ... Read the Post
Home Made Cleaning Products – Recipes
We decided that as of next year (2019), we would try to go a bit more chemical free as part of our new years resolution. I'm actually quite proud of myself because I started early (a month before New Years) and did my research to give us the best chance at achieving the goal. This week, I've been working on making my own cleaning products out of natural cleaners and essential oils. Having the house smell nice (and like chemicals) is a massive motivator for me to clean, so I knew I ... Read the Post
