Ideas for decluttering counter?

There are several project posted by other Hometalk members that should help you. While some of the ones that came up with my search term may not be appropriate, there are some that should help. I like the one using a curtain rod under the cabinets so that you can hang some things that you use a lot with "S" hooks. See what you can find. :) Wishing you the best.

Downsizing several times Ive learned to maximize all available cupboard storage utilizing various storage bins baskets and elevating wire racks. You might consider using the backside of the cabinet door too. Purge the things you dont need or store other things that you don’t use often in another area of the house....like under the bed or basement closet.

I think that people who have cluttered counters or any thing that is cluttered are basically different from people who do not have clutter anywhere. I am not criticizing anyone since I am a clutterer. What it is, is that I do not SEE the clutter. It is like I am a lamp that is not on, and I have to turn the lamp on to see the clutter. When I see it, I address it. Then the lamp goes off and clutter develops again. There is always something that needs to be done with something before I can put it away. the envelope needs a stamp, but instead of getting the stamp, putting it on, I leave it and think I'll do it later. So people can give you or me, all the advice in the world about baskets and boxes and hooks and curtain rods and I still will have a mess, almost all the time. And I actually think I am very good (and I am) at styling and decorating and fitting things in spaces, but mostly I live with a mess somewhere.

Things that take up space that are only used during holiday, store them in closet or basement area. Purge your kitchen cupboards of miss matched Tupperware or odd glasses and dishes and donate those, place sets of dishes only used for special occasions in boxes in the basement this will free space up for toaster etc. remember less is more lol📌🎄

I love clean counters without mess on it. It makes your kitchen looks clean. And also with clutter on counters, for me it is impossible to cook properly. I hate when I do not have space to do my cooking. I even wrote recently some tips about how to organize kitchen countertops.
