WANT to organise your home on a budget?
We’re spending more time indoors than ever before, so it’s the perfect time to give your home a spruce – and one place in everyone’s home that is often over cluttered is the kitchen.

Thanks to wilko it doesn’t have to be an arduous task. They have some seriously savvy storage solutions that will get you sorted in no time.
So, if you’re looking to get organised and take your home from drab to fab, be sure to check these out…
Shelf space
Storage jars are fantastic for keeping everything neat and tidy. Glass jars work the best – as you can see what’s inside them. wilko’s 300ml Twist Top jars, £7 for a pack of 12, are perfect for a Pinterest-ready look – plus they preserve food freshness and can even be used for portions of overnight oats or yoghurt too. If you’re after something bigger, check out the 1L Preserve Jar, £2, or the 1.5L Blackboard Lid, £4 – you can even write important info (such as best before dates) on the lid. Easy.

To give a sleek effect to your kitchen, you should also make sure that those shelves are sorted. Wilko’s kitchen organiser with three tiers, £4.50 makes it easy to see and reach what’s at the back of the shelf in a jiffy whilst the Large Caddy Basket, £1.50, down from £2 keeps smaller food items, such as sauces, neat and tidy.
To maximise space, the wilko Set of 3 Silver Stacking Baskets, £2.40, down from £3, stacks up easily and is perfect for storing lightweight items such as snacks or pet treats. They can be stacked or used individually, so they’re really versatile.
Drawers
Your drawers needn’t let you down – sometimes it’s all too easy to ‘tidy up’ by stashing items haphazardly into the nearest drawer or cupboard. Pick up wilko’s Interlocking Drawer Organisers, £3.50 down from £4.50 for a pack of eight – they can be configured any way you like to get things spick and span.

Fridge
Don’t forget that fridge! Keeping it sorted lets you see what you have, what needs to be used and will help to minimise any waste. The wilko Fridge and Freezer Storage Bin, £1.80 down from £2.25 is great for grouping your foods so you can always see every item. They also come in a selection of sizes to suit every need.
The little extras
Sometimes, little extras make all the difference and it makes sense to make the most of any space available – without making things look cluttered. The wilko Hanging Storage Shelf, £3.50, is perfect for small kitchens and easily hangs from the bottom of the shelf above – perfect for storing anything from dinnerware to food.

Other handy space-savers include the wilko Over Door Wire Rack, £3, which is great for difficult to store items, such as chopping boards or baking trays, and the Wilko Corner Plate Rack, £3.50 – an easy access way to separate your dinnerware in the least amount of space.
For something to sort items that don’t really have ‘a place’, the wilko Large Grey Decorative Storage Box, £3 down from £4 looks good in or out of a cupboard and works well for hiding any items that may stop your kitchen looking clean and tidy. These are also available in various sizes, two different colours and the lids are sold separately.
