Hi everyone.
So in this video, I'm going to share with you guys a cool way to organize all of your
cooking utensils and cooking gadgets inside of your kitchen drawers.
Now I recently discovered a brand new product that when I saw it, I was like, "Whoa!
This is just like the coolest thing ever.
I have to try it out.
See if it works."
And I tried it out and I'm loving it.
It's awesome.
I am a creative person.
I'm very visual and I like to see things to know that they still exist because I'm a very
out of sight, out of mind person.
So if I can't see everything then to me, I don't know I have it and then I won't use
it and then it's going to sit and becomes clutter.
So if you're a creative person, if you're the same way, visual, then you are going to
love what I'm going to show you guys.
OK.
So let me show you guys my kitchen drawer.
Tada!
Look, how beautiful this is.
I feel like every time I open up this drawer, it's just like total eye candy to me.
Everything just has its own home, nothing moves when you open and close the drawer like
I could just slide the drawer shut and then open it and nothing moves out of place because
you have these little dividers that's holding everything into its place.
Now, let me kind of tell about this product.
It's a brand new product that - well actually, it's brand new to me.
I think it has been on the market for like maybe one or two years.
But I recently discovered it.
And when I saw it, I was like, "Wow!
I need to try this out.
This is so cool.
You can see exactly what you have.
Everything has its own place."
And it was just cool and it comes in like different colors.
You can mix and match like the mat with like the dividers.
So I think it has like five or six different colors.
I'm not sure.
But I like the purple the best so yeah, I got that one.
So basically, it's a rubber mat at the bottom of the drawer and you have little dividers
that move so everything is just like rubber so it just stays into place.
It's kind of cool.
Like nothing - it doesn't fall over or anything.
There's no like adhesive.
There's no magnet.
Nothing.
It just stays in place.
It's kind of like magic.
But the dividers come in three different sizes so you can mix and match your dividers depending
upon what you're storing.
So what else was I going to tell you guys?
Oh, so when I first saw this, I saw this product or this idea, I kind of felt like, "Well,
I feel like I could just - I feel like I could store more stuff without this mat."
Which is true, I could probably stick like ten more utensils in here and everything would
still fit perfectly.
But then I thought, "Well then, I can't really see what I have."
Like I like being able to just like open the drawer and immediately see everything I have
and find what I have.
It just saves time and you're more productive when you're in the kitchen instead of like
fishing round, moving stuff to try and get what's in the back.
And plus, the drawer just - it never get stuck because you're only storing things in here
that fit.
Now, if you find that when you take things out like for example, I'm going to take the
whisk out or take measuring spoons out or the ice cream scooper out, if you feel like
you're not going to know where to put things back or if your kids are unloading the dishwasher
and they don't know where things go, your spouse is doing the same thing, then all you
have to do is just take your label maker and put a label here and write whisk.
So you know where to put things back.
So you know that the whisk is going to belong here.
But before you do that, you want to make sure that you find the perfect home for each of
the items so you're not moving the labels around when you're moving the utensils around.
OK.
So another cool thing about the product is that you can actually, you can cut this rubber
mat to fit the size of your drawer.
So everyone has different size drawers so you're going to need like different size mats
and different number of dividers, different sizes.
So you can actually cut this really easily.
It's a really thin piece of rubber.
You just cut it to the size of your drawer and it fits perfectly.
Another thing you can do which I did was I put a little piece of Museum Putty on the
bottom of the mat in the corners so the mat wouldn't slide when it's inside the drawer
if I didn't cut it perfectly like there was a little bit of a gap in the front of the
drawer.
So putting a piece of Museum Putty will hold the mat in place.
Nothing on top will actually slide but the mat might slide if you don't cut it perfectly.
So you can buy this on Amazon.
If you go to my website, Alejandra.TV/products, you will see the link to the product on where
to buy it.
OK.
So that's how I'm organizing all of my cooking utensils and cooking gadgets inside of my
kitchen drawer.
So like I mentioned before, I rather have one drawer of stuff that I frequently use
like on a daily basis and weekly basis just inside that drawer and have it be more organized
than trying and cram and stuff everything like all my kitchen utensils and kitchen gadgets
inside of one drawer and then have things stuck on top of each other, have things like
get stuck when you open and close the drawer.
And then when I'm cooking like have to shuffle around and fish through the drawer to find
exactly what I'm looking for.
So I feel like less stuff in one drawer more organized is better than having more stuff
stuffed in one drawer and not be able to find what you're looking for and have the drawer
get stuck when you open and close it.
So one tip is if you have a lot of gadgets and a lot of utensils and you have a small
space then consider pulling out the stuff that you don't use very often so that
might be like melon baller or that might be like a lime juicer or a creme brulee torch,
like stuff that you use maybe once or twice a year or maybe three times a year, pull that
stuff out.
Put it in a shoe box and put it inside of a cabinet at the very top of your kitchen
or put it at the top of the pantry, somewhere where you know it still exists but it's not
taking up valuable real estate space inside of your kitchen drawer.
So anyways, that's my tip for organizing your kitchen utensils and kitchen gadgets.
If you have a video that you want to share with us on another cool way to organize them,
leave a video response or tell us in the comments below and yeah, that's everything I have for
you guys.
I will see you guys soon.
Bye!
