This Lid Organizer Instantly Made My Cabinets Looks Less Cluttered, and It’s Only $13 Right Now

I am one of those people that actually enjoys cleaning and organizing my kitchen (we exist!). I don’t need a new year’s resolution to do it, either — this is one of my favorite year-around projects. There is always a cabinet that could be a little tidier, a drawer full of knives and utensils that could be organized. Of course, I realize not everyone is as zealous about kitchen organization as I am, so I am here to share the secret to tidy cabinets I discovered during my adventures in compulsive decluttering. 

When I found this multi-compartment container for organizing all the disparate, mismatched storage container lids a year ago, it instantly made my cabinets look neater. The best part is, it can be yours for just $13 on Amazon right now.  

Simple Houseware Food Container Lid Organizer

Probably one of the most cluttered places in my kitchen used to be the cabinets where I stored all the storage containers that I have accumulated over the years. I stuffed them all haphazardly in the two cabinets above my stove. They were easy to ignore in theory, except when I tried to open said cabinets and all the lids came tumbling down onto my head in an avalanche of plastic. 

This unsustainable situation needed a quick solution, so I decided to try this Simple Housewares lid organizer. It comes with five removable and adjustable dividers, and slid right into my standard size cabinet without a struggle since it only measures 0.6 by 8.3 by 3.4 inches. 

Using the aforementioned dividers, I customized sections within the organizer to fit the type of lids that I already own. For example, I own many small lids (both square and round) that go with small containers that I use for snacks, so I needed one narrow compartment for those. But I also have full-sized square lids that accompany the large leftover containers, which need a section that is much wider. Right now, not all the dividers are in use, but I kept them in case I acquire more containers and will need to add another section to the organizer sometime in the future. 

Like a file cabinet, all of my container lids are now all in the same place, organized by size (and brand if I’m really on top of my game). Right away, the cabinets became easier to navigate because I no longer had to rummage through thrown together stacks to find the lid I needed. And in that way, it’s not just a space-saver but a time-saver as well. 

If you’re looking for one simple but effective way to make your kitchen easier to navigate, I highly recommend the Simple Housewares lid organizer — not only is it on sale for $13, but the rush you get from organizing this one place in your kitchen might even push you to tackle the rest.
