Preparing meals is often a hurried task, with time pressing in before and after. When it�s difficult to find spices or other food items, containers or utensils, meal prep times can become frustrating events. But there are plenty of kitchen organizers available to make mealtime a cinch instead of a trial.
Organizers aren�t limited to cabinets or the pantry. The refrigerator can use a little help too, in order to help you quickly find what you need when it�s time to prepare dinner. The Fridge Roll Out Caddy keeps foods readily accessible. Each wheeled bin rolls smoothly on your refrigerator�s glass shelves, allowing you to pull a refrigerator�s depth worth of items out for a quick look. Made of rugged plastic, these caddies are also dishwasher safe.Customers have come to rely on Moen, the #1 faucet brand in North America, to deliver dependable products and service. Moen is part of Fortune Brands, Inc. (NYSE: FO) ( www.fortunebrands.com ), a leading consumer brands company.Pour on the charm: upgrade the faucet.Another organizer that allows you to see and access food stuffs quickly at meal prep time is the Adjustable Door Rack. Hanging on the inside of the pantry door, this 67 inch high frame features seven wire baskets, each 5 1/2 inches deep. They can hold canned goods, cereal boxes or other food items�whatever you need to get to quickly. And that means that meal prep time will go faster.Gain a foothold on more attractive flooring.(ARA) - Ah, summer. Between neighborhood softball games and trips to the community pool, it's the biggest time of the year for moving and home remodeling.One of the simplest ways to add pizzazz to the kitchen is to install new cabinet hardware, says home improvement expert Don Vandervort of www.hometips.com. "At your local hardware store you'll find a wide array of drawer pull designs - from painted ceramic or metal knobs, to whimsical designs shaped like knives and forks. Simply unscrew your existing cupboard hardware, replace with the new, and presto, you've completed a quick an inexpensive update for your home."Each collection features a knob and a three-inch drawer pull Designed to match seven popular Moen ® suites in both style and finish: 90º™ -- Chrome and Brushed Nickel Bamboo ® -- Brushed Nickel Icon™ -- Chome and Brushed Nickel Iso™ -- Chrome and Brushed Nickel (coordinates with the Level™ collection) Kingsley™ -- Chrome, Brushed Nickel and Oil Rubbed Bronze Rothbury™ -- Chrome, Brushed Nickel and Oil Rubbed Bronze Waterhill ® -- Chrome, Brushed Nickel and Oil Rubbed Bronze Limited Lifetime WarrantyFlooring makes a huge difference in the appearance of a kitchen or bath. "Oftentimes vinyl flooring is dated and worn," Vandervort says. "But the good news is that you can go ahead and lie new vinyl or laminated wood material right over the old flooring. Many of the items available today give the look of ceramic tile or natural wood at a lower cost."Even a bathroom the size of a phone booth can look larger with a little ingenuity, according to www.americanstandard-us.com. Try using lighter, cooler colors: they feel airy and trick the eye. Wallpaper with a smaller pattern also helps expand the space. Try some on the ceiling, or emphasize horizontal lines with a coordinating border. Or try installing bath tile that contains a subtle pattern and then repeat it onto the floor. If your bath is really petite, try using a trim pedestal lavatory or wall hung fixtures - both free up valuable floor space. Also, remember to go heavy on the lighting and choose reflective surfaces, such as a shiny marble vanity.
These days, it�s easy, inexpensive and fun to get the kitchen organized. And an organized kitchen means an organized cook. With the right accessories, you�ll never feel like a harried cook again�no matter how little time you have to prepare that next meal.
