Getting used to your new Kitchen Layout

Your newly renovated kitchen is a beautiful blend of functionality and aesthetics. Acclimating to the new layout may require a bit of time and effort. The joy of a fresh start comes with getting accustomed to the changes too.

Don’t be discouraged if it takes some time to get used to the changes in your kitchen floor plan — with practice, you’ll find yourself more comfortable every day doing things like food prep.

The key here is patience and practice. Try not to stress if you can’t find the coffee mugs on your first morning or struggle remembering which drawer holds the silverware. Give yourself permission to make mistakes as you learn where everything belongs in this updated space.

Grouping similar items can help you get acclimated quickly. For example, keep baking ingredients near where you usually whip up sweet treats or arrange everyday dishes close at hand. This is the perfect opportunity to make sure your food storage system makes sense with the new storage space you have.
