Closer to Sixty

The dishwasher’s rack had oddly placed pegs, so I took a closer look at it and discovered that the previous owner had wedged in a Rubbermaid wire shelf, presumably to prevent smaller items from falling through.

As it turns out, that exact tray was on my (extensive) ‘to buy’ list and enabled me to convert one of my cabinets from ‘neat, but piled on top of one another’ to this:

Now that I’ve got that cupboard under control, I’m motivated to do the same to the cavernous one next to it and just realised that it won’t be as hard as I thought it would be. I’ve been treating the cabinet like a corner model, but it’s not really, and I’ll be able to put a shelf across the back as though it was a regular cabinet.

Putting in a shelf above the big bowls in the back would enable me to bring down the bakeware that’s above, freeing the deep, but skinny, upper shelf for baking sheets and cutting boards.

(I really should be in bed, but when I get into one of these organizing moods I think it’s best not to stop myself. 😀 )
