I don’t think there’s any contest, really. Kitchen counters take on a lot. By design, they house our appliances, our spices and oils and over and above that – sometimes they become a drop zone for pretty much everything. Before you know it, it all descends into cluttered chaos. The reality is keep your kitchen counter neat requires conscious effort. I myself use the flat surface rule to take 10 and clear my counters each morning. Besides simple routines, there are a few kitchen countertop organization products that can truly help keep your counters looking tidy and chic.
Here are my latest favourite picks:
