In your kitchen, you probably have more items than anywhere else in your home. From food to dishes to small appliances, it all accumulates quickly. With more dedicated storage in the kitchen, it can be challenging to determine when you have too much. Professional organizers suggest that when your belongings no longer fit neatly in your space, it’s a sign of excess. When countertops are cluttered, it may indicate an abundance of gadgets and appliances. Professional organizer Becky Marple from BeeNeat in Oklahoma City notes that owning multiples of the same item, not knowing what you have, being in a new life stage, inheriting items, and having unused items are all indicators of having too much stuff in your kitchen.
