I love this idea... even after the underneath has been soaked already
Very good use of the space you have. I have no idea really, but the storage in your stove could be a throwback to the wood stove days. This is where the wood was stored in many stoves. Just a thought.
Love this! We’ve all been convinced that we need a huge kitchen with a thousand cabinets and storage. The truth is, we end up filling that space up with stuff we don’t really need!
So true,i say that all the time. Such a great video
you prolly dont care but if you're bored like me atm you can stream all the latest series on InstaFlixxer. Have been watching with my brother for the last days :)
@Lennox Trey yea, I have been watching on instaflixxer for since december myself :)
It always makes me realize how different and alike we are wh en i ser how someone else arranges their kitchen. Don't apologise for having things you enjoy around you. There are times when just seeing something can change our mood or make us smile. Thanks for sharing.
I know you probably already know this but just in case you don't.....if you take a block of canning wax and rub it on the bottom of your china cabinet drawers and the rungs that they sit on, it will make it easier to slide. the humidity causes swelling and it can make the drawers stick. I usually wax my antique drawers just once a year. makes life easier when the drawer slides smoothly. I just love love love your kitchen. your whole house really.
Love your kitchen, wonderfully decorated
I am oddly envious of your pot and pan storage space haha. Wish we had room in our to organize our cookware in such a convenient way! Loved this video. :)
I also have the same collection of blue China. Unfortunately it's still packed away in our attic. I thought it be best to put them away until my children were older, but now they are older, and you reminded me of them so I'll definitely be getting those out soon.
Lovely and organized, thank you for sharing. Try rubbing the bottoms of your wooden hutch drawers with a bar of soap. They might glide more smoothly.
Lynne True or candle wax
Yes! I did this with an old dresser and it worked like a charm. The drawers slide in and out so easily now.
I love the way you had sorted your kitchen very practical and a place for everything so organised wish I could be .
Amazing how you minimize things. Mom of 4, Grandmother to 7. ❤❤
My Daddy had a big thick white coffee cup wish I had it lovely video!
Do love your kitchen.so miss my childhood life on the farm now😢
I love that spot for the Berkey. It’s perfect. It’s functional. Plus the berkey is pretty. Why hide it. I would definitely display it proudly.
You can use one of those pan organizers turned on their side to organize your cookie sheets above the fridge. It looks like you have enough vertical space to store them vertically.
Oh my word, yes! Never thought of that.
@Shaman Dana My cabinet guy built the same thing and WOW... you never know how handy something is until you have one!
That's how I use the space above my fridge also. I have the organizer pulled toward the front of the cabinet so I can reach it easily.
Under the sink - a step stool! I need it to reach the top cabinets.
Ahh yes!! Great idea.
I might use that idea too Julie!
Just a tip I like to share. Under the sink my husband added some inexpensive 8 x 8 tile squares from Home Depot, and we tiled the bottom of the sink cabinet. Best thing ever!! in case the plumbing ever leaks it wont destroy the bottom wood of the cabinet, and so easy to clean.
Elizabeth Esquivel What a fabulous tip! Thanks
Wow what a great idea!!!
Great idea!
Great idea, we used viynel flooring sheet remant from our kitchen floor over 20 years ago. Saved us from several plumbing leaks, and still looks great. I also lined my pantry shelves with it, looks great
Wow,you're in need of new pot holders!!!
Under sink I have a bucket to capture used kitchen towels during the week, foldable step stool, and arm extender gadget,,use it to reach the items in top shelves, works great when I don't want or need to pull out the step stool.
You have a wonderful home and family enjoy
Really enjoyed seeing your organizing style Lisa!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Ok, if this annoys you just ignore it, but what if you built a stand for your Burkey that would allow it to sit in the corner of your windowsill. It’s pretty enough to keep out, IMO, but just in the way. It wouldn’t have to be much of a stand, just 3 pieces of wood....If it was in the corner of your windowsill it would still be almost just as convenient but give you your counter space back and just look clearer.... just a thought. I love your new kitchen! I’m so happy for you that it’s finally done!
if it was higher up it could be harder to put water in it. I understand about the counter space. I was thinking of a small stool sitting on the counter, it would just lift it and make the counter look less cluttered.
I do believe it was mentioned in one of the videos the reason it’s there is so the children can get access and pour water for themselves
I bought a wrought iron plant stand. It looks like a little chair and works perfect for the Berkey. It does elevate it, so may not work for the children. But I found that feature of the Berkey annoying.
Yep, and if it doesn’t bother you a bit then just ignore me. My counters are no where near as clear or nice as yours so no judgement here. I just had that idea and thought I would share it.
You were very thoughtful with your suggestion. It's so good to see constructive ideas done in a respectful way.
You might be interested in looking for restaurant china on your vintage shopping trips. I’ve purchased several over the years inexpensively and they hold up beautifully especially since you have such a large family.
I had to laugh at your dish rags. That's how I tend to "fold" my socks and underwear lol. Maybe I'll start doing the same with dish rags. Love your kitchen!
I thought it was genius!
I think you are very practical, with the towels. I have a friend who never folds her kids socks anymore lol they wear them mix matched anyway so she just keeps them in a basket in the laundry room or in closet. I never fold socks now, I just lay them flat in my husband's drawer.
Command Hooks makes the best hook for hanging up brooms and mops and such. There’s like a hard plastic piece and then inside there is a gray rubber piece that’s flexible and the broom or mop handle clicks right into it. To get your mop and broom up off the floor :) It’s a real space saver :)
How about putting the extra pans ( muffin, cake tins,etc) on the shelf above your coffee area. That way you don't have to get a chair to get it down. Looks great though Lisa. I always love checking out what you have in store for us!
I totally have An odds and ends drawer! 😆
Love that green color on you! 😍
Great job Lisa!!! Everything has its place 😊.
I feel the same way! I love having pretty things to look at throughout the day. It may not be practical but it brings me joy! 😊❤️
Thanks for the kitchen tour, love the way you blend practical and beauty together, when you redo the pantry could you add more power points so that you could use the machines in situ rather than moving them to the kitchen and back again. For the brooms and mops you need an old fashioned broom cupboard.
Looks like time to sew some pretty new pot holder to go in the beautiful new kitchen!
Quick and easy project...
Just made one yesterday! It had obviously been a while!
Very organized.
Why don't you put your water filter on a wheeled cart? It can be moved around your kitchen and put in a less obvious spot. Just a thought. Love your videos!
I love the look of the Berkey, if i had one, i would probably have it front and centre too.
The water filter doesn’t bother me at all. It honestly looks like it fits in that area. Video aside, I’m just in the process of getting my sourdough starter started. I’m on day 4 and so far things are going well. I’m excited to try some of your recipes, especially the sourdough cinnamon rolls!
yes! cinnamon rolls are one of my favorite sourdough recipes!
No issue with grease from cooking and no oven hood? Beautiful kitchen!
nope!
I love your kitchen! You fit a ton of stuff in there.
Total Perfection.
Thank you for sharing so much. You did a wonderful job!! I always enjoy your videos 😀One thing I might suggest....So my mom and sister did an intervention with me in regards to my dish towels. Yes they were very bad but when you have something for a long time you just get used to it. So they went to rags and I got new ones. I feel like I should have an intervention with you with your pot holders😬. Maybe time for new ones? I wonder if you can sew some!
Lovely kitchen.
After watching, I have way too much stuff!! I need to downsize
Looks like Daniel slept like a rock for this one ❤ sweet boy
she was rocking side to side at the beginning ...back to sleep he went !
Love the kitchen! You could store baking pans in a standing rack under the sink.
As the kids get bigger and hit their growth spurts, those big plates will come in handy!
Thank you for this! My kitchen looks overcrowded but in reality I don't have that much just not well organized. Seeing what you used and how you've done the space is helpful. You're awesome Lisa!
That large blue & white bowl, if it doesn't already say, is the Zwiebelmuster design (German for onion pattern). Widely known all over Europe, and various porcelain factories have used the pattern once it was distributed long ago.
my family keeps a smaller trash bin and recycling bin under our sink! it is really convenient to have it centrally in the kitchen without it being an eyesore as it’s in the cabinet.
Or a composting bin
Wonderful idea! I'm going to do that.
Here in Europe it‘s usual to have trash/compost under the sink!
Woeschhuesli same with Australia, most houses I know have it under the sink
I love that center prep table, it is functional and gorgeous. Also you could put your baking pans under the sink.
Try storing the cookie sheets under the sink standing up. We store ours there because that was my only choice!
Hi, I’ve been really enjoying watching your videos over the past couple of months. Just a little suggestion from someone that works in TV. Your shots when you are speaking to camera are often over-exposed (too bright white and washed out). Your b-roll/overlay footage always looks well exposed though. Blessings from New Zealand. Loving the content.
“Make the cut” - pun intended ☺️😂
Your kitchen is lovely! The oven is stunning, a real beauty 😍
Hi Lisa! I love your channel! You inspire me sooo very much! I have one suggestion : You could grow your own luffa gourds every year so that you dont end up paying for those awful sponges that you cant compost.
since Ive grown my own luffas I havent used any plastic sponges !
Wini Walbaum & Co Can you link some info or a website where you buy the seeds?
@@i.e.presents638 Yes! of course! you can buy them at rareseeds.com :)
Lisa... a suggestion. The cupboard above your refrigerator with baking pans in it... If you were to put some thin boards vertically about 4 to 6 inches apart, you could store the sheet pans and such vertically and it would be easier to put them out when needed. Love your Kitchen!
Love your kitchen! It's so timeless!
I've always kept my trash can under the sink. 😉
I was definitely curious as to how you made it all fit with a large family. Having the pantry and hutch make such a big difference! I love your new kitchen, thank you for sharing with us. One question I have is what do your kids do for snacks?! I only have two kids and feel like we are constantly snacking lol. We eat a lot of fruit, but I noticed you didn't seem to have "snacky" foods stored in your pantry. Would love to hear what you do for all your kiddos!
I love this post! Can I ask where you keep your produce such as fruit, veg, eggs, bread? Many thanks Sxx
I realize this is old now but I just watched this video. Just a suggestion I would have made, use a little smaller garbage can and put under the sink. That's what we have anyway, but there is no other place that wouldn't be out in the open or in the way
Omgosh, why have I not thought to store my egg cartons open and stacked like that?! I have them piled on top of the fridge in a big mess. Lol. I tried to notice what you *don't* seem to use, and it looks like decorative hand towels, foil and saran wrap are about all I have that you don't. Oh, and processed snacks and alcohol and medicine cabinet stuff. 😳 We do use our baking sheets a LOT, but I could I definitely use some storage lids for my glass baking dishes. Oh, and honey?? I missed the honey.
I love your hair up! So pretty! 😍
Well thanks! This was my "I don't feel like doing my hair today" style. ;)
You can also put in a shelf that pulls out and up for your grain mill. It would bring it almost counter level when you pull it out and up so you don’t have to lift it. Hard to explain, but I’m sure you’ve seen these shelves on Amazon. They are great for heavy things. I use one for my kitchen aide so I don’t have to leave it out, but I also don’t have to lift it from the low cabinet. I’m older.......
Trina Peddicord I’ve seen them for mixers too
have you thought about storing some of your mugs on the shelf above your coffee maker? just a few, that way you wouldn't have to stop by the china cabinet to get a mug. it would already be in the spot. the mugs you are hiding in the back would work there easily. just a thought.
I noticed the pots/lids are relatively small for such a big family...We're a family of four and use way bigger pots for batches that only last us two meals tops. Do you use several pans/skillets/pots when you're cooking meals for everyone?
When you shop your vintage ware , do you test for lead?
Walmart and even the dollar tree have beautiful drawer/cabinet liners. I just love changing my liners when I de clutter.
Is it possible that the storage zone that comes with you oven was originally a plate heater? My grandma was a cook and she had such a space in her oven and she used it to keep the plates warm before serving the food
I have a thousand cabinets and they're all filled with too many bowls, cups....etc...and my counters have too much on them bc my pantry and cabinets are too full to hide the other stuff. It's so frustrating! I want less but I don't know where to start! I've purged many times but the stuff keeps finding it's way back in different things. I also feel luke we have too much food in our pantry. Help! I would love to hear about how you deal with this, how you shop etc...podcast maybe?
Once you purge you must commit to give it away and not purchase unnecessary stuff. It take commitment. De-cluterring is one of my favorite pass times.
Girl, you need new pot holders (and a video idea for ya if you make them ;) lol
Lisa,
Lisa here...I'm sure you've been told this already but since I've always wanted a stove like yours. I have a question? Has anyone told you the left side of your oven is intended as a warming oven. So like if you make biscuits and want to keep them warm while you make your gravey just pop them in there. Also does your stove have a bottom broiler under the oven.
The warming side can also be used to rise bread( proof dough)
🍞🥐🍪🥮 that's it.🤗
I was thinking the same, proofing and warming areas!
Lisa! I knew I found a soul sistah in you and Chloe and Boxwood Avenue! I love everything you and Chloe do! @BoxwoodAvenue - I have a goal of gettin' hubby to buy me some land up by you....we are currently in Santa Barbara County. I need SPACE! Love ya, Lisa!!!! I sell doTERRA, too! SUCH a wonderful and inspiring company to be apart of! xoxo
Your kitchen is so cool! Do you like not having a disposal? Also, if your girls like having tea parties, The London Tea Room is pretty awesome in the Tower Grove area!
Thank you! We have always given our scraps to the chickens so I do not mind not having a garbage disposal. Thank you so much for the recommendation! My girls will love it :)
Thanks Lisa this was so interesting I have a lot of things in my draws that I never use, I am now inspired to only keep things that will be used at least fairly often. I agree that it is important to be able to enjoy looking at lovely things along with everyday things it makes us enjoy being in the kitchen as well as it being a practical homemaking place.
Since your kitchen is finished, will you be filming a new intro for your channel? I love how your kitchen turned out! :-)
So glad it’s back cause I need to reorganize my kitchen so so bad. You do such a wonderful job. Oh my goodness I also get to see Daniel yummy.😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Thank you!
boy you are brave!! I would not want to show all my cupboards . I would like to send you some new pot holders. Really if I had your address New pot holders. You are amazing. That is one lucky baby. till next time. Joyce.
I’m so impressed by the empty space beneath the sink!
Hi Julie, First, your new home is beautiful. Looks like something out of Better Homes and Garden. My question for you is, have you ever had a stainless steel sink? The reason I ask is we are replacing our kitchen sink which is a porcelain sink to a stainless steel sink. My thought for doing this is because of maintenance. My white porcelain sink seems to soak up stains every day. It's never a quick wash. Every night before being done with the kitchen, I have to scrub the sink due to stains, and rust mark's. If you have had experience with both, which is the easiest to maintain in your opinion?
I was watching another channel with the same vintage stove, and the left oven was electric and the right was gas. Interesting that yours doesn't have the oven on the left.
Could that be a warming over in your stove?
I would organize the remaining spices into that miscellaneous drawer, closer to the stove for cooking
we had a stove just like yours when I was growing up. one thing we had that I wished I still had was a metal matchbox holder that hung on the wall you put your whole box of matches perpendicular with just an inch or two opening for the matches to fall out, and slide it in the container, it has a long slim opening on both sides where you can strike your matches on the box in the holder. they came in so many cute colors. I don't see them as often as I used to. very useful. maybe you could keep an eye out when you go antique shopping for one. a pretty blue to match you cups on the shelf would look beautiful.
Mary West.... I have one of those metal matchbox holders and I love it! Mine is just metal and not painted. :-)
I love how simple you make things, even in your organization, which is so necessary with lots of kids! I have 5 and I’m always trying to keep things more organized and simple. I wish my pantry was as organized as yours! My problem is the little snacks for the kids(which are rare) and onions/potatoes/butternut squash. But you are definitely inspiring me to clean it up more!
Would be so pretty to store coffee beans in vintage jars above your coffee grinder and French press.
You should check out Lead Safe Mama......a lot of those antique plates are very high in lead and can leach in food. I had to get rid of all my old blue and white dishes and my vintage Pyrex.
Jenn S You really didn’t have to, you chose to. Other people make different choices that they are comfortable with and that’s ok.
I keep a fire extinguisher under my sink and garbage bags. I have herd of small kids so I keep cleaning products above the washer. Nothing is toxic but I have a 3 year old who a mess soooo....
Ehelen Tharpe Yes, I was wondering about trash bags
Under the sink is a good spot to put a pull out rubbish bin. That are great, I’ve been installing them in kitchen in Australia for the last 15 years. I’m a Carpenter/Joiner, love your kitchen it’s so refreshing
Love the kitchen. I found that if I put my Birkee on a riser I can move it back away from the edge of the countertop. Made a lot more room on my counter doing that.
Hi Lisa I love the way your kitchen looks. I also have a Berkey.. I keep mine on a tall metal plant stand I'm my kitchen due to precious counter space. I use my stock pot to fill it once a day. It works grear.
So lovely! I’m gonna reorganize my kitchen today. I think I’m desperate for an all in one baking spot, too! 😍
Nice organization. Re: storage above frig., suggestion: if you place dowels inside right side you can slide cookie trays on their side makinging it easier to pick and slide in and out. Leave muffin tins stacked on left side of caninet. I really like your ideas!
I bought the Berky stand and love it. If you had one you could push the Berky back away from edge so no accidental overturn buy rambunkious kids.
Donna Danna but then her kids could not easily get their own water. It doesn’t bother her, it just sticks out to us.
I love your kitchen! I definitely like having a random things drawer. I always have.
I appreciate you so much. You don’t have excess, yet balance function and design. Your new kitchen is beautiful, I think your berky is a part of your style and perfectly placed for ease. Thanks for sharing, I have new kitchen too, and value your input. Can’t wait to buy your new book ❤️
aw thank you!
That shelf above your stove, it is so lovely!
Where did you find it?
I've been searching high and low for one similar.
Love this!!
May I ask why you drink from jars not glasses? Is it cos the kids break them? Also if you rub wax onto your drawers of the hutch they will run more smoothly 👍🏼
Wow - your pot holders have a serious work history!
Thank you so much! Now I have an idea on how to do my hutch. Tired of all the Rae Dunn hutches being posted on here.
Love your new kitchen and organizing. If you will get a pot lid holder and turn it sideways and pit the cookie sheets in them. Easy to get and organized. Love ya!
would there be room next to ur coffee station for the grain mill and holder ?? you wouldn t have to bend over as much . (take the doors off of the coffee station)
