This is my Tupperware cabinet. People who know me know that this is one area of my house that is never organized. I have even had friends and family try to organize it for me. Today my goal is to organize it and then to keep it organized for a month.

I will post a picture every Monday in order to keep myself accountable. This cabinet is a source of frustration for everyone in my family who is old enough to help in the kitchen. We usually spend 5-10 minutes searching for a storage container and it’s matching lid. If this cabinet was organized I would be likely to use Tupperware to store things instead of ziplocs and foil, which would save me money and create less waste.

In order to organize my cabinet I found a few helpers.

Then we set our timer for 15 minutes because I promised them it wouldn’t take long if we worked together, and they were hungry for lunch.

We took everything out of the cabinet and tried to match containers with lids.

After we matched all the lids to containers we had a few extras that we will either give away or throw away.

Then we loaded everything back into the cabinet.

We even had time leftover.

Total time spent 12 minutes 30 seconds. Time saved, about 5 minutes per meal.
