If you have a blind corner cabinet in your kitchen, you probably have a turntable, but they are not always ideal.
Often items fall off the turntable and can be difficult to retrieve.
I love this idea from Laura and take a look at her blog.

Clearly, turntables or lazy Susans are a great idea for a standard cabinet as well.

One area in the kitchen that can be difficult to organize are the spices.

Certainly labeling and sorting them in alphabetical order is the ideal.
The DIY riser created by Charleston crafted is just plain smart.
